Practical Cloud Native Security with Falco
As more and more organizations migrate their applications to the cloud, cloud native computing has become the dominant way to approach software development and execution. Protecting modern, cloud native applications from threats requires the ability to defend them at runtime, when they're most vulnerable to attacks. This practical guide introduces you to Falco, the open source standard for continuous risk and threat detection across Kubernetes, containers, and the cloud. Falco creator Loris Degioanni and core maintainer Leonardo Grasso bring you up to speed on threat detection and show you how to get Falco up and running, plus advanced topics such as deploying Falco in production and writing your own security rules. You'll learn how to: Leverage runtime security in cloud native environments; Detect configuration changes and unexpected behavior in the cloud; Protect containers, Kubernetes, and cloud applications using Falco; Run, deploy, and customize Falco; Deploy, configure, and ...

Tidy Modeling with R
Get going with tidymodels, a collection of R packages for modeling and machine learning. Whether you're just starting out or have years of experience with modeling, this practical introduction shows data analysts, business analysts, and data scientists how the tidymodels framework offers a consistent, flexible approach for your work. RStudio engineers Max Kuhn and Julia Silge demonstrate ways to create models by focusing on an R dialect called the tidyverse. Software that adopts tidyverse principles shares both a high-level design philosophy and low-level grammar and data structures, so learning one piece of the ecosystem makes it easier to learn the next. You'll understand why the tidymodels framework has been built to be used by a broad range of people. With this book, you will: Learn the steps necessary to build a model from beginning to end; Understand how to use different modeling and feature engineering approaches fluently; Examine the options for avoiding common pitfalls o ...
