In today's digital age, the proper administration and safeguarding of data have assumed a position of utmost importance, particularly in the sectors of research and technology, where new ideas and information are the driving forces behind advancement. The book "Secure Data Handling in Science and Technology" is a thorough guide that digs into the essential importance of data security and gives a roadmap for securing sensitive information in these disciplines. Its title comes from the combination of the two words "secure data handling," which refers to the handling of data in scientific and technological fields. The growth of modern science and technology is impossible without the use of data in some capacity. Research is fueled by it, innovation is driven by it, and decision-making processes are supported by it. On the other hand, the data that drives innovation is also vulnerable to a variety of dangers, such as cyberattacks, breaches caused by insiders, and violations of privacy rights. This book provides a comprehensive investigation into the complex landscape of data security as it relates to the fields of science and technology. The first part of the book lays a solid groundwork by introducing the concept of data security and describing the shifting nature of the threat landscape. It emphasizes the significance of discriminating between sensitive, confidential, and personal data and elaborates on the cybersecurity threats that every scientist, technologist, and everyone who handles data must be aware of. In addition to this, it offers a summary of data security principles as well as best practices, which work as cornerstones throughout the rest of the book. The ever-shifting legal and regulatory landscape pertaining to data privacy is one of the most important topics that are covered in this book. It analyzes worldwide data privacy frameworks such as GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA, and demonstrates the impact that these frameworks have on the way data is handled in businesses. The reader gains a better knowledge of the ramifications of non-compliance by reading case studies of data privacy infractions. After that, the book delves into the meat and potatoes of secure data handling, which covers the entirety of the data lifecycle. It provides insights into establishing solutions that are both practical and robust, covering everything from the security of data collection and storage to the security of data transmission and communication. Important issues including user identification, role-based access control, and secure data processing and analysis are addressed by it.

From Caldecott Honor-winning author-illustrator Steve Jenkins comes a series of animals with unusual eyes in this eye-catching picture book!In his eye-popping work of picture book nonfiction, Jenkins explains how for most animals, eyes are the most important source of information about the world in a biological sense. The simplest eyes-clusters of light-sensitive cells-appeared more than one billion years ago, and provided a big survival advantage to the first creatures that had them. Since then, animals have evolved an amazing variety of eyes, along with often surprising ways to use them.

Science and faith are not opposed to each other! The fact is, you cannot have one without the other. Most technologists, scientists and engineers learn and use the scientific method in their jobs. The scientific method acknowledges before a hypothesis can be made, the inventor needs to have an idea outside the scientific body. Unfortunately, technical curriculums do not teach how to receive and process a intuition, dream or gut feel. As a result, few people in tech jobs know how to get inspiration nor how to take inspiration to the next level where it's merits can be evaluated through a scientific process.Scientific inspiration is a hot topic in business today. Many articles on the subject focus on creative productivity which has little to do with creativeness itself and in some cases, their recommendations undermine scientific creativity. New science requires an hypothesis that is usually generated from a non-scientific process, one that includes inspiration and faith that the idea is worth pursuing despite the current science that opposes it.Many Christians are already trained in the inspiration processes that include divine inspiration, unpacking nonverbal messages and translating them for a person, team, organization or even our society. These same skills are useful to translate dreams, visions and other inspirations to develop scientific hypothesis' that, once developed by the scientific method, will advance science and technology. These principles are illustrated throughout the book as an example of unpacking divine inspiration and communicating that inspiration to a scientific team. The key example is a prophetic dream that enabled an analysis of a flight critical system on the International Space Station and saved millions of dollars.
