RISK DIAGNOSIS AND EVALUATION VS. THE ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES OF FINANCING THE COMPLEX RESOURCES-ECONOMY-ENVIRONMENT NETWORK WORKING IN AN INTEGRATIVE-REGENERATIVE INDUSTRIAL ECONOMY
No full textThe problem of financing the complex resources-economy-environment network working in an integrative-regenerative industrial economy is a derivation of the fact either the above-mentioned network intents to minimize the costs of the aftermath of pollution, or to capitalize on new and ‘green’ technologies, it is clear from the start a pollutant, or, to put it into perspective, the resources-economy-environment network will inevitably face (extremely) large costs; once it is assumed such companies must ‘clean’ the environment which they polluted after their (economic) activities are done, they must bear, in any event, important costs, whose quantification cannot be sorted out without the use of a mathematical apparatus, analyzing both economics and human society; this apparatus cannot reject the qualities of NPV (Net Present Value), IRR (Internal Rate of Return) and, last but not least, ROE (Return on Equity) and MSC (Marginal Social Cost) indexes.company, network, integrative, pollution, interest rate, risk
Learning in industrial organizations - a multisource feedback study
No full textAbstractThis paper is a result of one year research in a two industrial facility in West of Romania. The main objective was to regarding the management skills and soft skills of the management personnel. We choose to operate with a 360° paradigm of interest and involvement, vertically up and down, as well as horizontally across, the organizational compass. The Training Diagnostic strategy relies on the following methodological design of the program:Due to the fact that any organizational analysis relies on the sincere and competent participation of the co-workers, any relevant analysis has to insure that the acquired information is valid, relevant and accurate. In this regard, our program uses 2 different types of methods & tools:Assessment tools (direct methodology): like the 360° Analysis and the Focus Groups, for the direct acquisition of relevant information in respect to the program objectives.Redundancy tools (indirect methodology): like the Indirect Data Collection and the Semi-Structured Interviews, for the validation of the acquired information and the accuracy assessment of the direct methodology.The results of the program will be described in 2 separate sections:Quantitative outputs: measured results of the 360 Degree Analysis, represented separately for each analyzed department.Qualitative outputs: the results of the qualitative methods, as well as the accuracy ranking of the quantitative outcomes
(Cyber) Security Challenges in Critical Infrastructures, focusing on the Aerospace Industry
No full textThis presentation is focused on the cyber security challenges that aviation stakeholders might face. The presentation is divided into two parts. Firstly, Part A introduces the ideas of Critical Infrastructures, Safety-Critical Systems and their associated general challenges with respect to safety and security. Part B is focused on Aviation stakeholders and what cyber security challenges they might face within their systems architectures and technologies utilized
Introduction to data encryption with RSA
No full textThe presentation aims to show how data encryption within the RSA cryptosystem works and what vulnerabilities may appear in case of misconfigurations. The document is revealing how at a high-level the key generation and data transmission works, but also, how mathematically this process is securing the communications and the data in transit. Adjacent with this subject, the history of the RSA as well as its purpose in use were included to enhance the knowledge-sharing
The Right to Information - Main Element of Freedom of Expression. European and Romanian Standards
No full textThe author analyses the right to information in the light of the European Convention for defence of the human rights and the main liberties, of the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights and Romanian right. After stating that this right is one of the two main elements of the right to expression freedom, next to the right of opinion freedom, the author shows, on one side, that the freedom to information supposes responsibility and, on the other side, this should be respected by public authorities, as well as by any natural or juridical person.the right to information, expression freedom, opinion freedom, European Court of Human Rights.
Contribution to a secure urban air mobility
No full textFollowing the permanent upscaling of the number of unmanned air vehicles applying to enter the airspace, the need for re-structuring of the flow of air traffic gets more and more important. Multitudes of research groups around the world are proposing comparable, yet in detail slightly differing approaches to establish the urban air mobility of the future. The urban air mobility of the future will utilize all kinds of ever-emerging new technologies while posing the need to be connected to legacy systems present in aviation. This is on the other hand a door opener and invitation for malicious subjects to invent innovative new attacks of different kind. As the attack surface is tremendously widened by the grow of urban air mobility, the need to keep the security-by-design principle has to be emphasized.This paper addresses the first development steps of a security perimeter for urban air mobility to already consider security in a holistic and system-wide manner during the design phase and beyond
Aviation Security Lab: A testbed for security testing of current and future aviation technologies
No full textThe continuous development and integration of new technologies in the aviation industry has increased the pool of active systems in use, and thus, the attack surface. The aircraft, as one central element in aviation, have followed the same trend. To accommodate current and future needs of onboard avionics intercommunication, the standard Avionics Full-Duplex Switched Ethernet has been created and implemented in several aircraft in recent decades. While this standard suggests security measures for the onboard networks, there may exist potent threat actors which can surpass the measures and pose significant security risks. Therefore, a brief discussion on the type of actors and general threats will be presented. This paper will inform on circumstances which can lead to security breaches, and further report on the simulation of one threat scenario. The environment providing the simulation capabilities is the Aviation Security Lab, a testbed designed for security applications in aviation. The current status of the testing environment is also described towards the end of this paper
