Methods: We geocoded the current residence of 1129 breast cancer cases and 1619 controls recruited between 2008 and 2013 in ten provinces of Spain, as part of the MCC-Spain study. We assigned different indicators of exposure to green spaces in a buffer of 300 m, and in nested buffers of 100 m and 500 m around the residence: presence of urban green areas according to Urban Atlas, presence of agricultural areas according to CORINE Land Cover 2006, and surrounding greenness according to the average of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. We used logistic mixed-effects regression models with a random effect for hospital adjusting for potential confounders. We explored the effect of several potential effect modifiers. We assessed mediation effect by physical activity and levels of air pollution.
Given the various ways in which conflict in cyberspace could result in nuclear weapons use, steps must be taken to minimize the risk of escalation from one domain to the other, but conceiving of agreements to curb malicious and escalatory behavior in cyberspace is no easy task. Computer software cannot readily be classified and counted the way planes and missiles can, and states do not agree on definitions of offensive and defensive cyberweapons, let alone on measures to control them. Nevertheless, some efforts have been made to develop rules and protocols to restrain the destabilizing use of cybertechnologies, and these provide a framework for further consideration.
At this point, the likelihood that the United States, Russia, and China will adopt and respect international constraints on the use of cyberweapons aimed at the critical information and communications systems of their adversaries appears virtually nil. Nevertheless, it is vitally important that UN officials, industry figures, and prominent national leaders continue to articulate such norms and call for their adoption. Hopefully, these precepts will form the basis for binding international agreements, when enough key governments are prepared to embrace such measures. In the meantime, it is essential that policymakers and arms control advocates pursue other routes to arms control in cyberspace.
At present, none of these approaches for the control of cyberspace appears to be making any headway. As a consequence, the arms race in cyberspace is rapidly gaining momentum, greatly increasing the likelihood that future confrontations among the major powers will entail the early use of sophisticated cyberweapons, magnifying the risk of rapid and uncontrolled nuclear escalation. Because this danger has received far less attention than other pathways to escalation, it is essential that policymakers and arms control advocates devote far more effort to controlling cyberspace than they have up until now.
This course provides a brief review of Industrial Control Systems security. This includes a comparative analysis of IT and control system architectures, security vulnerabilities, and mitigation strategies unique to the Control System domain. Because this course is hands-on, students will get a deeper understanding of how the various tools work. Accompanying this course is a sample Process Control network that demonstrates exploits used for unauthorized control of the equipment and mitigation solutions. This network is also used during the course for the hands-on exercises that will help the students develop Control Systems cybersecurity skills they can apply in their work environment.
This course will also increase awareness of how a threat related to the Industrial Control System translates into a threat to business operations. Attendees will come to more fully appreciate that most businesses have numerous support processes and systems controlled by, or otherwise dependent on, an ICS.
Individuals who are responsible for evaluating or influencing the cybersecurity posture of critical infrastructure. This could include any of a number of specific roles and responsibilities such as cybersecurity management, risk management personnel, IT and control system (OT) security personnel, network engineers, OT engineers and managers. This class is geared towards small to medium sized companies with no OT risk management personnel but personnel from large business are welcome also.
The Goldberg Lab is designing, prototyping, and evaluating systems that will steer flexible needles from outside the body through deformable tissues to reach specified 3D anatomical targets. Our approach integrates real-time imaging, adaptive modeling and planning, and image-guided intraoperative needle control.
The Global Industrial Cyber Security Professional (GICSP) certification is a vendor-neutral, practitioner focused certification that bridges IT, engineering, and cyber security to achieve security throughout the industrial control systems lifecycle. The GICSP assesses a diverse set of professionals who engineer or support control systems and share responsibility for the security of these environments.
The GICSP bridges together IT, engineering and cyber security to achieve security for industrial control systems from design through retirement. This unique vendor-neutral, practitioner focused industrial control system certification is a collaborative effort between GIAC and representatives from a global industry consortium involving organizations that design, deploy, operate and/or maintain industrial automation and control system infrastructure. GICSP will assess a base level of knowledge and understanding across a diverse set of professionals who engineer or support control systems and share responsibility for the security of these environments.
The framework requires impacted organizations to identify and mitigate third-party cyber risks in their supply chain. NERC-SIP stipulates a range of controls including categorizing systems and critical assets, training personnel, incident response and planning, recovery plans for critical cyber assets, vulnerability assessments, and more. Read more about effective strategies for achieving NERC-CIP compliance.
The FISMA framework is aligned closely with NIST standards and requires agencies and third parties to maintain an inventory of their digital assets and identify any integrations between networks and systems. Sensitive information must be categorized according to risk and security controls must meet minimum security standards as defined by FIPS and NIST 800 guidelines. Impacted organizations must also conduct cybersecurity risk assessments, annual security reviews, and continuously monitor their IT infrastructure.
Even an online platform once praised by users for easily navigating bureaucratic tasks is being used as a tool of control: Authorities plan to use it to serve military summonses, thus thwarting a popular tactic by draft evaders of avoiding being handed the military recruitment paperwork in person.
CyberPanel is web hosting control panel for OpenLiteSpeed and LiteSpeed Enterprise. It is alternative to cPanel or Plesk. You can install CyberPanel on DigitalOcean or Vultr and deploy super fast WordPress sites.
Apply world-class intelligent privilege controls across the IT estate, as well as differentiated controls to secure the unique needs of workforce users, third-party vendors, endpoints and machine identities as they access sensitive data.
Ensure that the right users have secure access to the right resources at the right times, by protecting workforce and customer credentials and tightly controlling access to on-premises and cloud-based applications, services and IT infrastructure.
Take control over unmanaged privilege on the endpoints to significantly reduce the area of attack and defend from threats by removing local admin rights, enforcing role-specific least privilege and improving audit-readiness.
Extend privilege controls to cloud environments by analyzing, securing and monitoring access. Discover and remove excessive permissions by visualizing access for human, machine and federated identities.
Risk framing is the act of defining the context in which risk decisions are made. By framing risk at the outset, companies can align their risk management strategies with their overall business strategies. This alignment helps avoid ineffective and expensive mistakes, like deploying controls that interfere with key business functions.
Vulnerabilities are the flaws or weaknesses in a system, process, or asset that threats can exploit to do damage. Vulnerabilities can be technical, like a misconfigured firewall that lets malware into a network or an operating system bug that hackers can use to take over a device remotely. Vulnerabilities can also arise from weak policies and processes, like a lax access control policy that lets people access more assets than they need.
During risk analysis, companies consider multiple factors to assess how likely a threat is. Existing security controls, the nature of IT vulnerabilities, and the kinds of data a company holds can all influence threat likelihood. Even a company's industry can play a role: The X-Force Threat Intelligence Index found that organizations in the manufacturing and finance sectors face more cyberattacks than organizations in transportation and telecommunications.
