From a distance, the city shines so brilliantly that you never see the darkness until it is too late to walk away. Her streets are ancient, yet she bristles with the new. She charges the world for what she offers; but for what she offers, you'd sell her both your eyes. The city is Fioracitta, the Heart of Power. And she welcomes all visitors with open arms. This supplement for Mythras is designed to give the Games Master everything needed to craft adventures or a whole campaign in this setting. The book outlines the city of Fioracitta, the sprawling provincial capital of Lascany, a region in the peninsular nation Itarra, as well as the city's history, geography, culture, and much more. It contains full guidance for character creation, including several non-human species: the Ophidians, the Longane, the Monacielli, and others. Extensive sections on magic and religion adapt the Mythras core rules to the setting, and throughout are many intrigues, secrets, and agencies to help inform and create compelling adventures. Fioracitta draws its inspirations from the Italian city states of the late medieval period and the Renaissance, and creates a vibrant fantasy world that is both self contained, or can be used with many of other settings for Mythras, such as Luther Arkwright, Thennla, and even Classic Fantasy.

Advocates a cybersecurity “social contract” between government and business in seven key economic sectors Cybersecurity vulnerabilities in the United States are extensive, affecting everything from national security and democratic elections to critical infrastructure and economy. In the past decade, the number of cyberattacks against American targets has increased exponentially, and their impact has been more costly than ever before. A successful cyber-defense can only be mounted with the cooperation of both the government and the private sector, and only when individual corporate leaders integrate cybersecurity strategy throughout their organizations. A collaborative effort of the Board of Directors of the Internet Security Alliance, Fixing American Cybersecurity is divided into two parts. Part One analyzes why the US approach to cybersecurity has been inadequate and ineffective for decades and shows how it must be transformed to counter the heightened systemic risks that the nation faces today. Part Two explains in detail the cybersecurity strategies that should be pursued by each major sector of the American economy: health, defense, financial services, utilities and energy, retail, telecommunications, and information technology. Fixing American Cybersecurity will benefit industry leaders, policymakers, and business students. This book is essential reading to prepare for the future of American cybersecurity.
