"I'm not going to lie to you: The Underfold is weird. You're probably asking, 'What do you mean? Is it "good" weird or "bad" weird?' Therein lies the conundrum. I don't believe that terms such as 'good' and/or 'bad' are apt descriptors for the kind of 'weird' that is happening in this comic strip. All I can tell you to do is grab a strong drink, sit in a comfortable chair, and suspend your concept of reality for a little while as you take in the indescribable weirdness that is The Underfold. (Seriously. There's a talking eyeball.)"-Wes Molebash, creator of You'll Have That and Max vs. Max"Bag-puppets, tentacles, and sentient eyes. These might sound like the beginnings of a horrifying nightmare, but somehow they combine to be consistently funny. To me this indicates that Brian Russell is either a genius or, much more likely, deranged. You should approach him at your own risk."-Ian "xy" Bergren, Member of the FoldThe Underfold is a web-based comic strip by Brian Russell. This first collection houses strips from the first two and a half years worth of publishing, commentary from the author and the humble origin story.

Debut poetry by Brian Russell, winner of the Bakeless Poetry Prize* Named a Best Book of the Year by Harriet, the blog of the Poetry Foundation *The year of what nowAre we the pure products and whatDoes that even mean pure isn't itObvious we are each our own cultureAlive with the virus that's waitingTo unmake us. ―from "The Year of What Now""The Year of What Now is not a book of poems about cancer. It's not a book that wears its heart on its sleeve. It doesn't parade the autobiographical in your face, though the conventions seem at first to be autobiography. It's not a cry in extremis, de profundis, etc. It's more casual, more canny, more casually well-made, more philosophically oriented . . . This book seems to me to represent a way forward for other young poets in its wide engagement with the world, in its unabashed embrace of the personal, and its equally galvanizing skepticism about the limits of subjective speech. At its deepest level, it embodies the desire to establish true sequences of pain from the cellular level to the most abstract operations of culture, technology, and possible worlds of the spirit." ―Tom Sleigh, Bakeless Prize judge, from the introduction

<li>Gain insight into privacy-enhancing techniques and technologies</li>
</ul>Who This Book Is ForThis book targets IT Security Professionals and Security Engineers (including pentesters, security architects and ethical hackers) who would like to ensure security of their organization's data when connected through the IoT. Business analysts and managers will also find it useful.What You Will Learn<ul>
<li>Learn how to break down cross-industry barriers by adopting the best practices for IoT deployments</li>
<li>Build a rock-solid security program for IoT that is cost-effective and easy to maintain</li>
<li>Demystify complex topics such as cryptography, privacy, and penetration testing to improve your security posture</li>
<li>See how the selection of individual components can affect the security posture of the entire system</li>
<li>Use Systems Security Engineering and Privacy-by-design principles to design a secure IoT ecosystem</li>
<li>Get to know how to leverage the burdgening cloud-based systems that will support the IoT into the future.</li>
</ul>In DetailWith the advent of Intenret of Things (IoT), businesses will be faced with defending against new types of threats. The business ecosystem now includes cloud computing infrastructure, mobile and fixed endpoints that open up new attack surfaces, a desire to share information with many stakeholders and a need to take action quickly based on large quantities of collected data. . It therefore becomes critical to ensure that cyber security threats are contained to a minimum when implementing new IoT services and solutions. . The interconnectivity of people, devices, and companies raises stakes to a new level as computing and action become even more mobile, everything becomes connected to the cloud, and infrastructure is strained to securely manage the billions of devices that will connect us all to the IoT. This book shows you how to implement cyber-security solutions, IoT design best practices and risk mitigation methodologies to address device and infrastructure threats to IoT solutions.
This book will take readers on a journey that begins with understanding the IoT and how it can be applied in various industries, goes on to describe the security challenges associated with the IoT, and then provides a set of guidelines to architect and deploy a secure IoT in your Enterprise. The book will showcase how the IoT is implemented in early-adopting industries and describe how lessons can be learned and shared across diverse industries to support a secure IoT.Style and approachThis book aims to educate readers on key areas in IoT security. It walks readers through engaging with security challenges and then provides answers on how to successfully manage IoT security and build a safe infrastructure for smart devices. After reading this book, you will understand the true potential of tools and solutions in order to build real-time security intelligence on IoT networks.

In show business, the gap between success and failure can be wafer thin. Maybe it's the difference between a promise and a white lie; between heady ambition and stark reality; between hitting a note and missing a beat. Brian Russell's candid life story is a journey across brightly lit cabaret stages and some shady back street deals. He honed his craft as a member of a Norwich band appearing in the outback of Norfolk and Suffolk and from there he went on to come within a whisker of national success on more than one occasion. For over half a century Brian has met and worked with a Who's Who of show business. The colourful and often hilarious stories are all there, from boozing with famous pop stars from the sixties and seventies to adventures in the Dubai desert with American rappers. In many ways he has the last laugh about that wafer thin gap.
