This book provides an in-depth review and analysis of the biology of adults and larvae of the Family "Oestridae" (commonly known as botflies, or warble flies). Oestrid flies cause myiasis (invasion of living tissue by the larvae), and are a major pest of both domestic and wild animals worldwide. The book presents a comparative investigation of the life histories and adaptation to parasitism exhibited by this unique family of flies. It also gives a detailed survey of each genus and provides a synopsis of the taxonomy of the family. It contains chapters on morphology, life history, host-parasite relationships, taxonomy and behavior.

Cyberspace, or the Internet, supports important commercial assets as well as non-commercial assets. A hacker, a state or nonstate agent, or a cybercriminal can attack cyberspace for financial, political, or espionage reasons, or to steal identities, or to cause the disruption of critical infrastructure. We have achieved great advancement in computing systems in both hardware and software and their security. On the other hand, we still see massive cyberattacks that result in enormous data losses. Recent attacks have included sophisticated cyberattacks targeting many institutions, including those who provide management and host the core parts of Internet infrastructure. The number and types of attacks, the duration of attacks, and their complexity are all on the rise.
