Advanced Persistent Training: Take Your Security Awareness Program to the Next Level
by Jordan SchroederGain greater compliance with corporate training by addressing the heart of the very awareness vs. compliance problem: people are human. People have incredible strengths and incredible weaknesses, and as a Information Security professional, you need to recognize and devise training strategies that take advantage of both. This concise book introduces two such strategies, which combined, can take a security awareness program to the next level of effectiveness, retention, compliance, and maturity. Security policies and procedures are often times inconvenient, technically complex, and hard to understand. Advanced Persistent Training provides numerous tips from a wide range of disciplines to handle these especially difficult situations. Many information security professionals are required by regulation or policy to provide security awareness training within the companies they work for, but many believe that the resulting low compliance with training does not outweigh the costs of delivering that training. There are also many who believe that this training is crucial, if only it could be more effective. What you will learn: Present awareness materials all year-round in a way that people will really listen. Implement a "behavior-first" approach to teaching security awareness. Adopt to gamification the right way, even for people who hate games. Use tips from security awareness leaders addressing the same problems you face. Who is this book for Security awareness professionals or IT Security professionals who are tasked with teaching security awareness within their organization.

MATLAB Deep Learning
by Phil KimThis book consists of six chapters, which can be grouped into three subjects. The first subject is Machine Learning and takes place in Chapter 1. Deep Learning stems from Machine Learning. This implies that if you want to understand the essence of Deep Learning, you have to know the philosophy behind Machine Learning to some extent. Chapter 1 starts with the relationship between Machine Learning and Deep Learning, followed by problem solving strategies and fundamental limitations of Machine Learning. The detailed techniques are not introduced yet. Instead, fundamental concepts that applies to both the neural network and Deep Learning will be covered. The second subject is artificial neural network. Chapters 2-4 focuses on this subject. As Deep Learning is a type of Machine Learning that employs a neural network, the neural network is inseparable from Deep Learning. Chapter 2 starts with the fundamentals of the neural network: principles of its operation, architecture, and learning rules. It also provides the reason that the simple single-layer architecture evolved to the complex multi-layer architecture. Chapter 3 presents the backpropagation algorithm, which is an important and representative learning rule of the neural network and also employed in Deep Learning. This chapter explains how cost functions and learning rules are related and which cost functions are widely employed in Deep Learning. Chapter 4 introduces how to apply the neural network to classification problems. We have allocated a separate section for classification because it is currently the most prevailing application of Machine Learning. For example, image recognition, one of the primary applications of Deep Learning, is a classification problem. The third topic is Deep Learning. It is the main topic of this book as well. Deep Learning is covered in Chapters 5 and 6. Chapter 5 introduces the drivers that enables Deep Learning to yield excellent performance. For a better understanding, it starts with the history of barriers and solutions of Deep Learning. Chapter 6 covers the convolution neural network, which is representative of Deep Learning techniques. The convolution neural network is second-to-none in terms of image recognition. This chapter starts with an introduction of the basic concept and architecture of the convolution neural network as it compares with the previous image recognition algorithms. It is followed by an explanation of the roles and operations of the convolution layer and pooling layer, which act as essential components of the convolution neural network. The chapter concludes with an example of digit image recognition using the convolution neural network and investigates the evolution of the image throughout the layers.
