Opportunity Discovery and Creation in Cloud Computing
2013
Cloud computing provides opportunities for firms selling or using cloud services. However, little is known about how entrepreneurs discover or create these opportunities for cloud computing. In this study, we found that the opportunities discovered in cloud computing were related to the development of software for a particular need. By contrast, created opportunities were developed under conditions of technological uncertainty, at a time when the market did not yet exist. It appears that created opportunities, if successful, bring long-term competitive advantages, whereas discovered opportunities are more easily copied and exploited by competitors. peerReviewed
Creating modern blue pills and red pills
2019
The blue pill is a malicious stealthy hypervisor-based rootkit. The red pill is a software package that is designed to detect such blue pills. Since the blue pill was originally proposed there has been an ongoing arms race between developers that try to develop stealthy hypervisors and developers that try to detect such stealthy hypervisors. Furthermore, hardware advances have made several stealth attempts impossible while other advances enable even more stealthy operation. In this paper we describe the current status of detecting stealth hypervisors and methods to counter them. peerReviewed
CZYM JEST ASZ-SZABAB? ZARYS ATAKU NA GALERIĘ HANDLOWĄ WESTGATE
2017
: We wrześniu 2013 roku światem wstrząsnęła informacja o krwawym zamachu w Nairobi. Mimo zaangażowania mediów w relacjonowanie całego zajścia samo zjawisko organizacji Asz-Szabab nie zostało wyczerpująco wyjaśnione. Autorzy artykułu podjęli więc próbę ukazania złożoności i stopnia skomplikowania całego zagadnienia. W pracy starano się w sposób obiektywny zbudować wizerunek Asz-Szabab, jak i przedstawić sposób jej działania w ujęciu bezpieczeństwa wewnętrznego głównie kontynentu Afrykańskiego i Europejskiego. Dokonano tego analizując szczegółowo sam zamach w Kenii, jak i codzienne działanie organizacji na swoim terenie. Zarysowano również tło historyczne oraz kulturowe w celu określenia waru…
Generations of Stateless People: Many Years of The Rohingya’s Personal Security at Risk and the Support of the EU
2021
The Rohingya is an ethnic-religious Muslim minority that has struggled with serious human rights violations for decades. Indian migration to Burma, stimulated by British colonial rule, is pointed to as the main cause of the Muslim-Buddhist conflict. Although Indians in Burma currently constitute a fraction of the population (2.3%), resentment remained. The aim of the article is to analyze the threats to many aspects of the personal security of the Rohingya population. It is one of the most populous groups of stateless persons in the world; moreover, since the 1960s, this ethnic group has experienced oppression on a huge scale: from restrictions related to work and movement as well as diffic…
Cyber Threat Analysis in Smart Terminal Systems
2023
Cyber threats create significant factors that challenge traditional threat prevention mechanisms in harbor areas and port terminals. It has been recognized that understanding security functionalities in the harbor area is based on a more traditional experience of what it requires. It is not enough that the maritime and harbor ecosystem repeats only physical security service routines regarding random checks of passengers and vehicles and customs functions on cargo and passenger transportation. Smart environments and infrastructures are widely expanded in urban areas and create more challenges if old practices are combined with new technologies and functionalities. Traditional threats have ch…
Zagrożenia bezpieczeństwa wewnętrznego Niemiec jako konsekwencja procesów imigracyjnych
2017
In the Federal Republic of Germany there is a visible growth of the importance of immigration policy, of the weight of the problem of integration/lack of integration of mi- grants with the German society is visible, and of the need for permanent monitoring of internal security threats and difficulties with their prevention and fighting them. Many researchers working on the internal security of Germany admit that the current threats are linked, by the majority of Germans, with the influx of immigrants to this country. The migrants are seen as a source of potential risks, dangers and internal conflicts. It might be argued that there is an undeniable correlation between migra tion and security…
Organisational GDPR Investments and Impacts
2023
The aim of this empirical multi-case study is to understand the GDPR investments and impacts of the organisations. Among these, the measuring experiences related to GDPR and information security (Isec), and the future expectations are examined. Several interesting findings were recognised, which also enabled further suggestions. First, an understanding of the organisations’ investments and their impact is built by gathering information about the actions that organisations made to fulfil the GDPR requirements. In the second phase, it is deemed necessary to examine how organisations experience the measures and evaluation of GDPR development and progress, in order to understand how respondents…
APT Cyber-attack Modelling: Building a General Model
2022
The global community continues to experience an increase in the scale, sophistication, and successful perpetration of cyber-attacks. As the quantity and value of electronic information have increased, so too have the efforts of criminals and other malicious actors who have embraced the Internet as a more anonymous, convenient, and profitable way of carrying out their activities. The systems are attacked more and more by single or multiple hacktivists, state sponsored hackers, cyber criminals, cyber terrorists, cyber spies, or cyber warfare warfighters. The cyber security approach requires a balance of cyber threat intelligence, real time cyber-attack detection and especially the cyber early…
Le renouvellement du contrôle juridictionnel de l’administration au moyen du recours pour excès de pouvoir
2017
The role of the administrative judge (the excess of power) has evolved due to the implementation of the various texts adopted recently as well as the developments in the case-law in recent years. In many areas, its role now goes beyond the mere confrontation of an administrative act with the rule of law. At the heart of the annulment decision is a statement and an assessment of the facts, apart from the interpretation of the law, which were usually separated by the principle of separation between the administration and its judge.Some jurisprudence which has become very classical, as well as others more recent, can be considered as characteristic manifestations of this new tendency of the ju…
Method and Practical Guidelines for Overcoming Enterprise Architecture Adoption Challenges
2017
During the last few years, interest towards Enterprise Architecture (EA) has increased, not least due to anticipated benefits resulting from adopting it. For instance, EA has been argued to provide cost reduction, technology standardisation, process improvement, and strategic differentiation. Despite these benefits, the EA adoption rate and maturity are still low. Consequently, EA benefits are not realised. A major reason hindering the adoption is that EA is not understood correctly. This paper aims for minimising the effect of the lack of understanding EA to adopting EA. Based on the research conducted in Finnish public sector, we propose an improved Enterprise Architecture Adoption Method…
