A log is a record of the events occurring within an org¿s. systems & networks. Many logs within an org. contain records related to computer security (CS). These CS logs are generated by many sources, incl. CS software, such as antivirus software, firewalls, & intrusion detection & prevention systems; operating systems on servers, workstations, & networking equip.; & applications. The no., vol., & variety of CS logs have increased greatly, which has created the need for CS log mgmt. -- the process for generating, transmitting, storing, analyzing, & disposing of CS data. This report assists org¿s. in understanding the need for sound CS log mgmt. It provides practical, real-world guidance on developing, implementing, & maintaining effective log mgmt. practices.

A complete guide to understanding, developing, and testing popular security-token smart contracts Key FeaturesUnderstand key Blockchain and Ethereum platforms conceptsStep-by-step guide to developing STO smart contracts on EthereumMonetize digital tokens under various U.S. securities lawsBook Description The failure of initial coin offerings (ICOs) is no accident, as most ICOs do not link to a real asset and are not regulated. Realizing the shortcomings of ICOs, the blockchain community and potential investors embraced security token offerings (STOs) and stablecoins enthusiastically. In this book, we start with an overview of the blockchain technology along with its basic concepts. We introduce the concept behind STO, and cover the basic requirements for launching a STO and the relevant regulations governing its issuance. We discuss U.S. securities laws development in launching security digital tokens using blockchain technology and show some real use cases. We also explore the process of STO launches and legal considerations. We introduce popular security tokens in the current blockchain space and talk about how to develop a security token DApp, including smart contract development for ERC1404 tokens. Later, you'll learn to build frontend side functionalities to interact with smart contracts. Finally, we discuss stablecoin technical design functionalities for issuing and operating STO tokens by interacting with Ethereum smart contracts. By the end of this book, you will have learned more about STOs and gained a detailed knowledge of building relevant applications—all with the help of practical examples.
