An organized guide to turning a dream into a reality without sacrificing achievements in other areas of life. Studies have shown that personal health directly affects professional well-being and vice versa. As one decreases, the other suffers. Conversely, as one increases, the other rises as well. By learning how to effectively and evenly pull the strings of both aspects of life—avoiding a collision of priorities—all goals can be reached with less stress and better health. Ready, Set, Achieve! digs into the psyche of setting a goal, creating a plan of action, carrying out those action steps, finding support systems, and cycling back around to do it all over again for a new and higher goal. Personal anecdotes from authors Yuri Diogenes and Jodi Miller punctuate each chapter and give an inside view into overcoming their own struggles and turning them into tangible success stories. Both authors rely on real-life experience to shed light on how to transform one’s mind and body and still create balance. Diogenes shares the tale of his amazing 100-pound weight loss and subsequent appearance on a national-qualifying bodybuilding stage in one of the biggest states in the country, while rising to the top ranks in his IT career. And Miller describes her feat of lifting almost three times her bodyweight at national- and world-level lifting championships, while remaining well rounded in both her athletic and career worlds. Ready, Set, Achieve! shows the road to just that: being your overall best.

Microsoft Azure Sentinel Plan, deploy, and operate Azure Sentinel, Microsoft's advanced cloud-based SIEM Microsoft's cloud-based Azure Sentinel helps you fully leverage advanced AI to automate threat identification and response - without the complexity and scalability challenges of traditional Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions. Now, three of Microsoft's leading experts review all it can do, and guide you step by step through planning, deployment, and daily operations. Leveraging in-the-trenches experience supporting early customers, they cover everything from configuration to data ingestion, rule development to incident management... even proactive threat hunting to disrupt attacks before you're exploited. Three of Microsoft's leading security operations experts show how to: * Use Azure Sentinel to respond to today's fast-evolving cybersecurity environment, and leverage the benefits of its cloud-native architecture * Review threat intelligence essentials: attacker motivations, potential targets, and tactics, techniques, and procedures * Explore Azure Sentinel components, architecture, design considerations, and initial configuration * Ingest alert log data from services and endpoints you need to monitor * Build and validate rules to analyze ingested data and create cases for investigation * Prevent alert fatigue by projecting how many incidents each rule will generate * Help Security Operation Centers (SOCs) seamlessly manage each incident's lifecycle * Move towards proactive threat hunting: identify sophisticated threat behaviors and disrupt cyber kill chains before you're exploited * Do more with data: use programmable Jupyter notebooks and their libraries for machine learning, visualization, and data analysis * Use Playbooks to perform Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) * Save resources by automating responses to low-level events * Create visualizations to spot trends, identify or clarify relationships, and speed decisions * Integrate with partners and other third-parties, including Fortinet, AWS, and Palo Alto
