PLC security and critical infrastructure protection
2013
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are the most important components embedded in Industrial Control Systems (ICSs). ICSs have achieved highest standards in terms of efficiency and performance. As a result of that, higher portion of infrastructure in industries has been automated for the comfort of human beings. Therefore, protection of such systems is crucial. It is important to investigate the vulnerabilities of ICSs in order to solve the threats and attacks against critical infrastructure to protect human lives and assets. PLC is the basic building block of an ICS. If PLCs are exploited, overall system will be exposed to the threat. Many believed that PLCs are secured devices due to it…
Artificial Intelligence for Hospital Health Care:Application Cases and Answers to Challenges in European Hospitals
2021
The development and implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in health care contexts is a concurrent research and management question. Especially for hospitals, the expectations regarding improved efficiency and effectiveness by the introduction of novel AI applications are huge. However, experiences with real-life AI use cases are still scarce. As a first step towards structuring and comparing such experiences, this paper is presenting a comparative approach from nine European hospitals and eleven different use cases with possible application areas and benefits of hospital AI technologies. This is structured as a current review and opinion article from a diverse range of…
Credit-Based Insurance Scores: some Observations in the Light of the European General Data Protection Regulation
2020
Despite the differences between credit risk and insurance risk, in many countries large insurance companies include credit history amongst the information to be taken into account when assigning consumers to risk pools and deciding whether or not to offer them an auto or homeowner insurance policy, or to determine the premium that they should pay. In this study, I will try to establish some conclusions concerning the requirements and limits that the use of credit history data by insurers in the European Union should be subject to. In order to do this, I shall focus my attention primarily on Regulation (EU) 2016/679. This regulation, that came into force on 24 May 2018, not only forms the ba…
Politics of Cultural Marking in Mini-Europe: Anchoring European Cultural Identity in a Theme Park
2012
Mini-Europe—a theme park in Brussels morally supported by the European Commission and the European Parliament—consists of around 350 models of different buildings and heritage sites from all the member states of the European Union. In addition the park includes an exhibition named the Spirit of Europe. The article explores how the European cultural identity is constructed and ‘sold’ in Mini-Europe, and how history, geography and local and regional traditions are intertwined into a politics of cultural marking, an ideology of European integration and a creation of shared symbols. European cultural identity has often been generated through appeals to an ancient or classical past, which is pro…
Protection of Personal Data and Human Rights between the ECHR and the EU Legal Order
2020
The present paper deals with the relationship between privacy and data protection, having regard to the European Union and the European Convention of Human Rights. Such an analysis moves from the normative context (art. 8 ECHR and art. 7 and 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union). Moreover, the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and of the European Court of Human RIghts is taken into account, in order to enlighten the dfferent scopes of privacy and data protection.

Control empresarial del uso de dispositivos digitales en el ámbito laboral desde la perspectiva del derecho a la protección de datos y a la intimidad
2020
Los avances tecnológicos no sólo han permitido una evolución en los procesos productivos o en la forma organizativa y de trabajar de las empresas, sino que también han posibilitado que éstas escojan nuevas formas y métodos de supervisión de la actividad laboral más invasivos, que, en ocasiones, entran en colisión con los derechos fundamentales de los trabajadores, entre ellos, el derecho a la protección de datos y el derecho a la intimidad. La vigente Ley de Protección de Datos destina algunos preceptos a regular el control y acceso por parte de la empresa a los dispositivos digitales facilitados al trabajador. El presente trabajo analiza estos preceptos y los rasgos más destacados de su ré…

Fiscal visibility in the U.S. and the European Union

European Union Protection System
2014
Traditionally, the EU law (characterised as acquis communautaire) is divided into the primary law and the secondary law. This distinction of the EU law is not based on a hierarchy of norms but, as it is justly admitted in the legal literature, on sources: if the EU primary law originates from the EU Member States as ‘Masters of the Treaty’, the EU secondary law—directly from EU institutions. In the case of IGOs (as well as other IP objects such as trade marks, designs, patents, and plant variety rights), their regulation is ensured both by the EU primary law and the EU secondary law which will be reviewed separately in Part II of the book.
