Download or read book Visual Cryptography and Secret Image Sharing written by Stelvio Cimato and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With rapid progress in Internet and digital imaging technology, there are more and more ways to easily create, publish, and distribute images. Considered the first book to focus on the relationship between digital imaging and privacy protection, Visual Cryptography and Secret Image Sharing is a complete introduction to novel security methods and sharing-control mechanisms used to protect against unauthorized data access and secure dissemination of sensitive information. Image data protection and image-based authentication techniques offer efficient solutions for controlling how private data and images are made available only to select people. Essential to the design of systems used to manage images that contain sensitive data—such as medical records, financial transactions, and electronic voting systems—the methods presented in this book are useful to counter traditional encryption techniques, which do not scale well and are less efficient when applied directly to image files. An exploration of the most prominent topics in digital imaging security, this book discusses: Potential for sharing multiple secrets Visual cryptography schemes—based either on the probabilistic reconstruction of the secret image, or on different logical operations for combining shared images Inclusion of pictures in the distributed shares Contrast enhancement techniques Color-image visual cryptography Cheating prevention Alignment problems for image shares Steganography and authentication In the continually evolving world of secure image sharing, a growing number of people are becoming involved as new applications and business models are being developed all the time. This contributed volume gives academicians, researchers, and professionals the insight of well-known experts on key concepts, issues, trends, and technologies in this emerging field.

Download or read book Privacy Respecting Intrusion Detection written by Ulrich Flegel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-28 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective response to misuse or abusive activity in IT systems requires the capability to detect and understand improper activity. Intrusion Detection Systems observe IT activity, record these observations in audit data, and analyze the collected audit data to detect misuse. Privacy-Respecting Intrusion Detection introduces the concept of technical purpose binding, which restricts the linkability of pseudonyms in audit data to the amount necessary for misuse detection. Also, it limits the recovery of personal data to pseudonyms involved in a detected misuse scenario. The book includes case studies demonstrating this theory, and solutions that are constructively validated by providing algorithms.

Download or read book Biodiversity Loss Assessment for Ecosystem Protection written by Rathoure, Ashok Kumar and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-05-29 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era defined by relentless human activities and rapid ecological transformations, the world faces an escalating crisis – the precipitous loss of biodiversity. As we grapple with the consequences of industrialization, urbanization, and unchecked developmental pursuits, the very fabric of life on Earth is unraveling. Biodiversity, encompassing the myriad species, their genetic variations, and the intricate interplay within ecosystems, is diminishing at an unprecedented pace. This decline, termed biodiversity loss, extends beyond a mere statistical measure; it reflects the unraveling of the intricate tapestry that sustains life on our planet. In the face of climate change, pollution, habitat loss, overexploitation of species, and the invasion of non-native species, the urgency to address biodiversity loss has never been more critical. It is against this backdrop that this book emerges, titled Biodiversity Loss Assessment for Ecosystem Protection. This groundbreaking work not only unveils the theoretical frameworks surrounding biodiversity conservation but also presents the latest empirical research findings, making it an indispensable tool for professionals across diverse disciplines. From stress on biodiversity and impact assessment to innovative approaches for studying terrestrial, aquatic, and marine components, each chapter provides a deep dive into specific facets of biodiversity loss. The objective is clear: to equip scholars with the knowledge they need to contribute meaningfully to the preservation of our planet's rich biological heritage.

The drooping, sagging mass of flesh and the smell of urine and the bowels having let go were right up there in sensory overload, but the buzzing blue and green shining flies all over the body signaled there was no going back for this dude. From doing suicide on-call for more than a decade, I've seen my share of "successful" attempts. There are no pretty stories to tell. Even though I came upon the scene after the fact, long after as a matter of fact, even though the photos I eventually saw were black and whites in a sheriff's file, I had seen enough of the real thing to be able, no matter how hard I tried not to, to see the body gently swaying in the tepid breeze from a tree limb like some very bad, rotten fruit. Question was: Did Bobby Banks climb a tree and let go, or did he have a little help? That's what I was being paid to find out.
