Enterprise Level Security

Enterprise Level Security

William R. Simpson

Productivity Press
2016
sidottu
Enterprise Level Security: Securing Information Systems in an Uncertain World provides a modern alternative to the fortress approach to security. The new approach is more distributed and has no need for passwords or accounts. Global attacks become much more difficult, and losses are localized, should they occur. The security approach is derived from a set of tenets that form the basic security model requirements. Many of the changes in authorization within the enterprise model happen automatically. Identities and claims for access occur during each step of the computing process.Many of the techniques in this book have been piloted. These techniques have been proven to be resilient, secure, extensible, and scalable. The operational model of a distributed computer environment defense is currently being implemented on a broad scale for a particular enterprise.The first section of the book comprises seven chapters that cover basics and philosophy, including discussions on identity, attributes, access and privilege, cryptography, the cloud, and the network. These chapters contain an evolved set of principles and philosophies that were not apparent at the beginning of the project.The second section, consisting of chapters eight through twenty-two, contains technical information and details obtained by making painful mistakes and reworking processes until a workable formulation was derived. Topics covered in this section include claims-based authentication, credentials for access claims, claims creation, invoking an application, cascading authorization, federation, and content access control. This section also covers delegation, the enterprise attribute ecosystem, database access, building enterprise software, vulnerability analyses, the enterprise support desk, and network defense.

Low Dreams (Being a Novel about Jason Reeds Clayne of the Jersey Pine Barrens)

William R. Brown

nidottu
Jason Reeds Clayne is not like any other young man you have ever met. Jason is a stand-out in so many ways. On the upside, he is resourceful and intelligent. On the down, he has been incarcerated for trying to "de-brain" his mother's boyfriend with a fireplace iron. Jason's ancestors date back to the Reeds family...who came to these forsaken Pine Barrens in the 1700's as indentureds and fugitives. Jason is sometimes driven with a "body memory" of all the mysteries and mysticisms of his forebears...including the strange "Devil Creature." IN the world of the 1980's, Jason's blood lines connect him to the centuries old myths and magics that did once, and sometimes still do, dance unfettered in these pine forests of South Jersey. In the end, he will use his unusual powers to set right a grievous wrong and to find security for himself and his beloved.

The Gift of Global Talent

The Gift of Global Talent

William R. Kerr

STANFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
2018
sidottu
The global race for talent is on, with countries and businesses competing for the best and brightest. Talented individuals migrate much more frequently than the general population, and the United States has received exceptional inflows of human capital. This foreign talent has transformed U.S. science and engineering, reshaped the economy, and influenced society at large. But America is bogged down in thorny debates on immigration policy, and the world around the United States is rapidly catching up, especially China and India. The future is quite uncertain, and the global talent puzzle deserves close examination. To do this, William R. Kerr uniquely combines insights and lessons from business practice, government policy, and individual decision making. Examining popular ideas that have taken hold and synthesizing rigorous research across fields such as entrepreneurship and innovation, regional advantage, and economic policy, Kerr gives voice to data and ideas that should drive the next wave of policy and business practice. The Gift of Global Talent deftly transports readers from joyous celebrations at the Nobel Prize ceremony to angry airport protests against the Trump administration's travel ban. It explores why talented migration drives the knowledge economy, describes how universities and firms govern skilled admissions, explains the controversies of the H-1B visa used by firms like Google and Apple, and discusses the economic inequalities and superstar firms that global talent flows produce. The United States has been the steward of a global gift, and this book explains the huge leadership decision it now faces and how it can become even more competitive for attracting tomorrow's talent.
