Malware poses one of the major threats to all currently operated
computer systems. The scale of the problem becomes obvious by
looking at the global economic loss caused by different kinds of
malware, which is estimated to be more than US$ 10 billion every
year. Botnets, a special kind of malware, are used to reap economic
gains by criminals as well as for politically motivated activities.
In contrast to other kinds of malware, botnets utilize a hidden
communication channel to receive commands from their operator and
communicate their current status. The ability to execute almost
arbitrary commands on the infected machines makes botnets a
general-purpose tool to perform malicious cyber-activities. Botnets
provides a comprehensive analysis of the topic, and comprises both
technical and non-technical sections written by leading
cybersecurity experts. The non-technical section addresses how
botnet infrastructure could be exploited for national security and
cybercrime purposes. It approaches the subject as a public policy
issue and analyzes the phenomenon of botnets from national
security, law enforcement and regulatory policy perspectives, and
makes recommendations for policy-makers on different public
policies, highlighting the need for international response
mechanisms. The technical section provides insight into current
botnet techniques and discusses state-of-the-art countermeasures to
combat the botnet threat in detail. It includes new detection
methods as well as different approaches to actively compromise
running botnets.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th Security
Research Conference, Future Security 2012, held in Bonn, Germany,
in September 2012. The 78 revised full papers presented were
carefully reviewed and selected from 137 submissions. The papers
are organized in topical sections on supply chain and critical
infrastructure protection; security situational awareness; crisis
management; security for critical infrastructure and urban areas;
sensor technology; social, psychological and political aspects;
cyber defense and information security; maritime and border
security; detection of hazardous materials; food chain security;
aviation security; ergonomic aspects.
This is the first book in English reviewing and updating the
geology of the whole Apennines, one of the recent most uplifted
mountains in the world. The Apennines are the place from which
Steno (1669) first stated the principles of geology. The Apennines
also represent amongst others, the finding/testing sites of
processes and products like volcanic eruptions, earthquakes,
olistostromes and melanges (argille scagliose), salinity crisis,
geothermal fluids, thrust-top basins, and turbidites (first
represented in a famous Leonardo's painting). As such, the
Apennines are a testing and learning ground readily accessible and
rich of any type of field data. A growing literature is available
most of which is not published in widely available journals. The
objective of the book is to provide a synthesis of current data and
ideas on the Apennines, for the most part simply written and
suitable for an international audience. However, sufficient details
and in-depth analyses of the various complex settings have been
presented to make this material useful to professional scholars and
to students of senior university courses.
