In this internet age of security challenges and threats from cybercrime, enhanced security measures are necessary. The zero trust model—the IT security model that requires strict identity verification for every person and device trying to access resources on a private network—helps to meet these everincreasing and evolving security challenges. This new volume offers a comprehensive overview of the zero trust security model and its application in the field of cybersecurity, covering the principles, technologies, and best practices for implementing a zero trust approach, equipping readers with the knowledge and tools to secure their digital environments effectively. This book stands out by providing a holistic view of the zero trust security model, combining practical guidance for professionals with educational insights for both professionals and students and offering real-world examples and case studies that bridge the gap between learning and implementation.

This thesis advances the long-standing challenge of measuring oxidative stress and deciphering its underlying mechanisms, and also outlines the advantages and limitations of existing design strategies. It presents a range of approaches for the chemical synthesis of fluorescent probes that detect reversible changes in cellular oxidative stress. The ability to visualise cellular processes in real-time is crucial to understanding disease development and streamline treatment, and this can be achieved using fluorescent tools that can sense reversible disturbances in cellular environments during pathogenesis. The perturbations in cellular redox state are of particular current interest in medical research, since oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases.The book investigates different strategies used to achieve ratiometric fluorescence output of the reversible redox probes, which nullify concentration effects associated with intensity-based probes. It also describes suitable approaches to target these probes to specific cellular organelles, thereby enabling medical researchers to visualise sub-cellular oxidative stress levels, and addressing the typically poor uptake of chemical tools into biological studies. In total it reports on four new probes that are now being used by over twenty research groups around the globe, and two of which have been commercialised. The final chapters of this thesis demonstrate successful applications of the sensors in a variety of biological systems ranging from prokaryotes to mammalian cells and whole organisms. The results described clearly indicate the immense value of collaborative, cross-disciplinary research.

This volume compiles critical essays that explore the evolution of progressive poetry in India from the 1920s onwards. It underscores the influence of writers in shaping both social and poetic landscapes, addressing themes such as folk music, colonial modernity, regional identities, and feminist poetics. Offering a comprehensive examination of the diverse voices and movements that have defined Indian progressive poetry, the book analyses key figures and movements, including Hemanga Biswas in Bengal, Subramania Bharati in Tamil Nādu, and the progressive cosmopolis in Assam. Additionally, it delves into the impact of film lyrics, the concept of autonomy in Telugu poetry, and the feminist poetics of progressive Punjabi poetry, explored alongside critical reflections on the cosmopolitan sensibility of poets such as Shiv Kumar Batalvi and Pash. The volume also includes a nuanced analysis of Gujarati poetry as featured in literary periodicals, the significant role of Tamil literary magazines, and contributions from Urdu, Hindi, Odia, Kannada, and Kashmiri literature, thereby highlighting the intricate tapestry of progressive thought across these diverse linguistic landscapes. By situating Indian progressive poetry within a global context, this volume provides valuable insights into how poetry has served as a medium for political and cultural resistance. With its interdisciplinary approach and thematic diversity, the book serves as an essential resource for scholars, activists, and students. It offers a nuanced understanding of the enduring role of poetry in shaping political ideologies and social thought in contemporary India.

This book provides an accurate evaluation of re-integration of Eurasia in the context of India’s energy security and diplomacy which requires a normative shift as in the current Eurasian geopolitical and geo-economic matrix, the growing role of transit countries and their proximity with the Energy Complex Zone negates the fact that great powers or strong states control the Eurasian Heartland. Authors believe that wrecking this norm is fundamental here to deconstruct the undercurrents of energy geopolitics prevailing in Eurasia over the emerging phenomenon, as it discourages the re-integration of the Eurasian region. It explores how the geopolitical struggle between major powers for energy resources has been engendering mutual interdependencies between energy producers and transit countries.It makes an attempt to provide a transcontinental study of Eurasian energy and connectivity as a thrust area for the present work positioning Eurasia in Indian foreign policy, determiningthe contours of energy diplomacy in connection with the Eurasian energy policy. It defines Eurasia broadly as the region that encompasses Central Asia and the Caucasus including Russia and transit countries. It addresses the geopolitical and geo-economic aspects of Eurasian re-integration in the context of India’s energy security. The objective of this book is to combine theoretical, contemporary, and policy-oriented issues that deserve scholarly attention and would both complement and supplement the academic contributions.
