This is not an isolated case in the United States, a country that concentrates approximately 30% of all the data centers in the world. Arizona, Utah and South Carolina are well aware of the insatiable thirst of this type of infrastructure.

They are also familiar with it in the Netherlands, where Microsoft was involved in a scandal last year when news broke out that one of its facilities consumed four times more water than declared in a context of drought.

Or in Germany, where Brandenburg authorities denied Google permission to build a data center in the region, as a Tesla gigafactory was already consuming too much water.

The Federal Communications Commission has approved a new set of rules aiming to prevent “digital discrimination.” It means the agency can hold telecom companies accountable for digitally discriminating against customers — or giving certain communities poorer service (or none at all) based on income level, race, or religion.

Over the last few years, we’ve seen a seismic shift in the way we work. The days of commuting to the office, Monday to Friday, are over. More of us than ever are now working, at least some of the time, from home. And, that’s made it a lot easier to strike a healthier work-life balance.

However, with some swapping an ergonomic office setup for the dining room table, this change hasn’t necessarily been beneficial for our physical health. Time and time again, studies have shown that maintaining any static position throughout the day isn’t good. Our bodies have adapted to suit more movement.

That’s where a height adjustable sit-stand desk really shines. I’ve been using a budget option for a while, but the Fully Jarvis standing desk has been on my radar for some time, having received rave reviews from other YouTubers. So, ever since Herman Miller offered the opportunity to test out the Jarvis for myself—alongside the Ollin monitor arm—I’ve been looking forward to sharing my experience.

Is this really the ultimate home office setup? Let’s find out…

Ad hoc Testing is done after the completion of the formal testing on the application or product. To do ad-hoc test, a tester must first analyze the application’s security and user-perceptible features. A well-informed tester must also understand an application’s architecture and if not familiar with an application, then the process of building it can be time consuming. Therefore a Ad hoc Testing may be suitable for organization like those that have small groups of agile testers, security experts or developers who are able to meet often or whenever required

What is Continuous Vulnerability Exposure Management (CVEM)?
“Every attacker leverages weakness!”

The statement holds true in both the physical realm and the cyber sphere. Whether we're talking about Malware, DDoS attacks, phishing, spoofing, or various other tactics, they are all meticulously crafted to exploit specific vulnerabilities, be they technological, human, or procedural.

Understanding that every attack hinges on exploiting a weakness changes our approach to cybersecurity (CVEM). We start actively searching for these vulnerabilities, deepening the comprehension of our organization's IT infrastructure.

With this perspective, you can thoroughly analyze your IT infrastructure, gaining a detailed understanding of all its aspects, recognizing your weaknesses, establishing controls, identifying gaps, uncovering strengths, and much more. There are also alternative viewpoints, such as the Detection Perspective, Data Perspective, Attacker Perspective, User Perspective, Device Perspective, Network Perspective, Application Perspective, and more.

We refer to these weaknesses as "vulnerabilities," a concept well-known in the realm of Vulnerability Management. Despite our best efforts, however, attacks persist. Why is this the case?

Firstly, our focus often narrows down to what we commonly term "software vulnerabilities." Timely discovery and mitigation are frequently lacking, and we tend to rely on isolated, automated solutions.

Secondly, a myriad of vulnerabilities often elude our scrutiny.

Vulnerability management, attack surface management and exposure management must take a central role in our cybersecurity strategy. It's through a comprehensive understanding of these vulnerabilities and a proactive approach to fortifying our defenses that we can genuinely protect our digital domains. Elevate true Vulnerability and Exposure Management to the forefront and make it an ongoing, automated endeavor. Reimagine cybersecurity from the perspective of weaknesses.

Arturo Béjar, known for his expertise on curbing online harassment, recounted to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg his own daughter's troubling experiences with Instagram. But he said his concerns and warnings went unheeded. And on Tuesday, it was Béjar's turn to testify to Congress.

"I can safely say that Meta's executives knew the harm that teenagers were experiencing, that there were things that they could do that are very doable and that they chose not to do them," Béjar says. This, he said, makes it clear that "we can't trust them with our children."
