Smart Mini-Cameras

Smart Mini-Cameras

Achieve the Best Camera Design: Up-to-Date Information on MCMsMiniature camera modules (MCMs) such as webcams have rapidly become ubiquitous in our day-to-day devices from mobile phones to interactive TV systems. MCMs—or smart cameras—can zoom adjust their frame rate automatically with illumination change focus at different distances compensate for hand shake and transform captured images. With contributions from academics and field engineers Smart Mini-Cameras discusses the structure operation principles applications and future trends of miniature mobile cameras. It compares this technology with traditional digital still cameras and explains the specific requirements of MCM components (imposed by the size or type of application) in terms of optical design image sensor and functionalities. The book describes the implementation of several active functionalities including liquid crystal auto focus (AF) and optical image stabilization (OIS). It also explores how new technologies such as the curved detector and transforming optics are stimulating novel trends including a miniature panoramic lens on mobile phones. By providing you with an understanding of the components and performance tradeoffs of MCMs this book will help you achieve the best camera design. It also answers frequently asked questions such as the importance of the number of megapixels in a mobile phone camera and the value of AF and OIS features.

Building in Security at Agile Speed

Building in Security at Agile Speed

Today's high-speed and rapidly changing development environments demand equally high-speed security practices. Still achieving security remains a human endeavor a core part of designing generating and verifying software. Dr. James Ransome and Brook S. E. Schoenfield have built upon their previous works to explain that security starts with people; ultimately humans generate software security. People collectively act through a particular and distinct set of methodologies processes and technologies that the authors have brought together into a newly designed holistic generic software development lifecycle facilitating software security at Agile DevOps speed. —Eric. S. Yuan Founder and CEO Zoom Video Communications Inc. It is essential that we embrace a mantra that ensures security is baked in throughout any development process. Ransome and Schoenfield leverage their abundance of experience and knowledge to clearly define why and how we need to build this new model around an understanding that the human element is the ultimate key to success. —Jennifer Sunshine Steffens CEO of IOActive Both practical and strategic Building in Security at Agile Speed is an invaluable resource for change leaders committed to building secure software solutions in a world characterized by increasing threats and uncertainty. Ransome and Schoenfield brilliantly demonstrate why creating robust software is a result of not only technical but deeply human elements of agile ways of working. —Jorgen Hesselberg author of Unlocking Agility and Cofounder of Comparative Agility The proliferation of open source components and distributed software services makes the principles detailed in Building in Security at Agile Speed more relevant than ever. Incorporating the principles and detailed guidance in this book into your SDLC is a must for all software developers and IT organizations. —George K Tsantes CEO of Cyberphos former partner at Accenture and Principal at EYDetailing the people processes and technical aspects of software security Building in Security at Agile Speed emphasizes that the people element remains critical because software is developed managed and exploited by humans. This book presents a step-by-step process for software security that uses today’s technology operational business and development methods with a focus on best practice proven activities processes tools and metrics for any size or type of organization and development practice.

Core Software Security Security at the Source

Core Software Security Security at the Source

. an engaging book that will empower readers in both large and small software development and engineering organizations to build security into their products. . Readers are armed with firm solutions for the fight against cyber threats. —Dr. Dena Haritos Tsamitis. Carnegie Mellon University. a must read for security specialists software developers and software engineers. . should be part of every security professional’s library. —Dr. Larry Ponemon Ponemon Institute. the definitive how-to guide for software security professionals. Dr. Ransome Anmol Misra and Brook Schoenfield deftly outline the procedures and policies needed to integrate real security into the software development process. . A must-have for anyone on the front lines of the Cyber War . —Cedric Leighton Colonel USAF (Ret. ) Cedric Leighton AssociatesDr. Ransome Anmol Misra and Brook Schoenfield give you a magic formula in this book - the methodology and process to build security into the entire software development life cycle so that the software is secured at the source! —Eric S. Yuan Zoom Video CommunicationsThere is much publicity regarding network security but the real cyber Achilles’ heel is insecure software. Millions of software vulnerabilities create a cyber house of cards in which we conduct our digital lives. In response security people build ever more elaborate cyber fortresses to protect this vulnerable software. Despite their efforts cyber fortifications consistently fail to protect our digital treasures. Why? The security industry has failed to engage fully with the creative innovative people who write software. Core Software Security expounds developer-centric software security a holistic process to engage creativity for security. As long as software is developed by humans it requires the human element to fix it. Developer-centric security is not only feasible but also cost effective and operationally relevant. The methodology builds security into software development which lies at the heart of our cyber infrastructure. Whatever development method is employed software must be secured at the source. Book Highlights: Supplies a practitioner's view of the SDL Considers Agile as a security enabler Covers the privacy elements in an SDL Outlines a holistic business-savvy SDL framework that includes people process and technology Highlights the key success factors deliverables and metrics for each phase of the SDL Examines cost efficiencies optimized performance and organizational structure of a developer-centric software security program and PSIRT Includes a chapter by noted security architect Brook Schoenfield who shares his insights and experiences in applying the book’s SDL framework View the authors' website at http://www. androidinsecurity. com/ | Core Software Security Security at the Source
