Make Dashboards Interactive

 the fundamental concept of callback functions in Dash, which are essential for creating interactive web-based applications. Here's a summary of the key points covered:

  1. Callback Functions: A callback function is a Python function that is automatically invoked by Dash whenever an input component's property changes. These changes could be triggered by user interactions, such as typing in a text input field or selecting an option from a dropdown menu.

  2. @app.callback Decorator: To designate a function as a callback, it is decorated with the @app.callback decorator, where app refers to the Dash application instance. This decorator informs Dash to call the function whenever there's a change in the specified input component's property.

  3. Input and Output Components: The callback function takes input and output components as parameters. Input components are those whose property changes trigger the callback, while output components are those whose properties are updated based on the callback's result.

  4. Connecting Core and HTML Components: Dash provides both core components (e.g., sliders, dropdowns) and HTML components (e.g., div, h1) for building the application layout. Callbacks allow you to connect these components seamlessly, enabling dynamic interaction between them.

  5. Updating Application Layout: Inside the callback function, you perform operations to compute the desired output based on the input values. This output is then assigned to the property of the specified output component, causing the application layout to update dynamically.

  6. Multiple Inputs: Callbacks can have multiple input components, allowing you to create more complex interactions. You can specify multiple input components by passing them as a list in the Input parameter of the @app.callback decorator.

By understanding and effectively using callback functions, you can create highly interactive Dash applications that respond to user input in real-time, providing a rich and engaging user experience.

Common cybersecurity terminology

  As you’ve learned, cybersecurity (also known as security) is the practice of ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information by protecting networks, devices, people, and data from unauthorized access or criminal exploitation. In this reading, you’ll be introduced to some key terms used in the cybersecurity profession. Then, you’ll be provided with a resource that’s useful for staying informed about changes to cybersecurity terminology. Key cybersecurity terms and concepts There are many terms and concepts that are important for security professionals to know. Being familiar with them can help you better identify the threats that can harm organizations and people alike. A security analyst or cybersecurity analyst focuses on monitoring networks for breaches. They also help develop strategies to secure an organization and research information technology (IT) security trends to remain alert and informed about potential threats. Additionally, an analyst work...
