Agro-industrial Wastes as Feedstock for Enzyme Production: Apply and Exploit the Emerging and Valuable Use Options of Waste Biomass explores the current state-of-the-art bioprocesses in enzyme production using agro-industrial wastes with respect to their generation, current methods of disposal, the problems faced in terms of waste and regulation, and potential value-added protocols for these wastes. It surveys areas ripe for further inquiry as well as future trends in the field. Under each section, the individual chapters present up-to-date and in-depth information on bioprospecting of agro-industrial wastes to obtain enzymes of economic importance. This book covers research gaps, including valorization of fruit and vegetable by-product-a key contribution toward sustainability that makes the utmost use of agricultural produce while employing low-energy and cost-efficient bioprocesses. Written by experts in the field of enzyme technology, the book provides valuable information for academic researchers, graduate students, and industry scientists working in industrial-food microbiology, biotechnology, bioprocess technology, post-harvest technology, agriculture, waste management, and the food industry.

Management of cyber security is challenging. Cyber security professionals tend to take a rather skewed approach in dealing with security issues. Clearly there is no right or wrong path to choose. An exclusive reliance on technical measures ignores the governance aspects that are so important. Incorporating governance may result in ignoring the cultural and normative issues. It is usually not about choosing one over the other. It is about defining a holistic perspective to management of cyber security. This book covers an interesting range of topic areas. These include cyber stalking, cyber fraud and abuse; denial of services; cyber espionage; cryptography, security policies; cyber terrorism; cyber detection and forensics. Ethical and intellectual property issues are also discussed. The book culminates with case studies. Cases allow students to apply and contextualize the concepts.
