The tabular structures in the Python pandas library are also termed DataFrames.  These structures represent the rows and columns using labels. A row label is called an index, and a column label is called a column index/header. DataFrames are created by filtering and manipulating large datasets. But these processed DataFrames have the same index as […]

Long gone are the days when simple server security solutions were enough to maintain a relatively safe system. As the sophistication of cyberattacks increases, so too must our ability to defend ourselves against them. Instead of individual computers, cybercriminals aim for entire networks and organizations – instead of DDoSing the central server, they exploit vulnerabilities […]

When working with databases, the question of whether to use Structured Query Language (SQL) or Object Relational Mapping (ORM) comes up frequently. Because developers need to maintain the chain of trust between various systems and services ORM is often the best option, relying less on the developer’s knowledge of SQL.  When building web applications developers can […]
