Officers were laid off and advancement was slow, so the Navy needed to find itself a role. ![]() At the end of the Napoleonic wars, the British Navy was too large for its peacetime needs. It wasn't some high-minded idealism or wacky sense of adventure, as is often suggested, that placed Britain at the forefront of discovery, but economics and self-interest. Fleming is a historian first and foremost, so he begins by placing exploration in its context. In Barrow's Boys Fergus Fleming takes us on an incisive and witty journey through the landmark years of British exploration from 1816 to 1850, marveling at both the bravery and the stupidity involved. This all changed in the 1970s with the publication of Roland Huntford's magnificent biography of Scott and Amundsen, now called The Last Place on Earth, in which he systematically and methodically revealed the levels of incompetence and arrogance with which Scott's expedition was riddled. It is easy to see how for a long time the lives of the polar explorers were shrouded in quasi-mystical and heroic terms.

There's something about the overwhelming emptiness and terrifying beauty of the polar regions that never fails to attract. ![]() Under Lock and Key by Robin Geesman5/12/2023 ![]() ![]() The first half of our book focuses on foundational theory, covering topics such as: Symmetric vs Asymmetric cryptography One-Way functions Digital Signatures Key Generation History and Context The second half encourages fledgling administrators to jump in with both feet, outlining the quirks of common tasks such as: Generating a signing request for a certificate (CSR) Generating a self-signed certificate (and when it is safe to do or not do so) Converting certificates between different formats including java keystores Configuring servers to meet best practices, not in a vacuum, but for the security and compatibility needs of your business vertical. ![]() ![]() This book, geared towards bridging the gap between the absolute beginner and the veteran IT Professional, combines the theoretical and the practical in equal measure.
