Application security can make or break entire companies these days. Developers that turn a blind eye to software security issues expose everyone to risk. Huge amounts of sensitive data are stored in business applications, and this data could be stolen at any time. Businesses that underinvest in security are liable to end up with financial […]

In 2015, two cybersecurity researchers Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek demonstrated that a Jeep Cherokee could be hacked and its critical systems commandeered over the internet. They were able to completely disable the vehicle in one scenario; later they showed how they could arbitrarily control the vehicle’s acceleration, steering and braking. Chrysler recalled 1.4 million […]

Effective software security is essential because countless data security breaches take place daily. The consequences can be disastrous for an organization, especially when the media gets hold of the details. Besides financial loss, a data security breach can destroy a company’s reputation. The media will assess, uncover, and publicize every detail of the breach. The […]

It’s probably a decade off, but 6G planners are already working on essential technology components and solutions needed for the 2030 wireless era. 6G research is organized into four interrelated strategic research areas: wireless connectivity, device and circuit technologies, distributed intelligent computing, and novel applications and services. Major scientific breakthroughs are sought in all of […]

Space engineers often wear many hats in order to facilitate safe space travel and the exploration of space. The primary tasks of a space engineer are to design and analyze aircraft and spacecraft. Space engineers need to understand the principles of physics including aerodynamics, motion and propulsion, as well as fluid mechanics and other theoretical […]

As the automotive industry adds more software and connections into vehicles, it simultaneously increases the probability of cyberattacks due to vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit software vulnerabilities in automotive software to take control of a vehicle and potentially cause serious safety damage by, for example, disabling the brakes.  Right now, the average car has about 100 […]

As with concerns on Earth with 5G wireless networks, space security specialists warn that you can’t have an era of satellites generating massive amounts of data and processing it without a much greater security capability. Military satellites and space systems are especially vulnerable since almost all modern military engagements rely on space-based assets, providing GPS […]

Satellites are just as cyber-vulnerable as any other technology – especially now in the new digital satellite era. While NASA is most commonly associated with space operations, eight U.S. federal organizations have space budgets, including the Defense and Energy departments, the National Science Foundation, the U.S. Geological Survey and others. These agencies use satellites in […]

Just like traditional information technology (IT) such as personal computers and phones, the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) weapon systems are also vulnerable to cyberattacks.  Even though many weapon systems are air gapped (not directly connected to the internet), cybercriminals can exploit external interfaces such as radios, radars, and maintenance ports to gain access to weapon systems’ […]

Leadership training has never been more important. Leadership courses, leadership seminars, leadership workshops and leadership bootcamps have become vital for organizations to better navigate pandemics, technological advances and rapidly changing employee demographics. Leadership training is how organizations move forward by overseeing that managers at all levels improve their capabilities and inspire their teams. Successful leaders […]
