Building sustainable contextual ambidexterity through routines: a case study from information technology firms
2020
The purpose of this paper is to explain the role that routines play in achieving sustainable organisational ambidexterity in information technology (IT) firms. Our exploratory analysis of four case studies reveals the key importance of routines in setting the context for sustainable ambidexterity. Companies build up contextual ambidexterity through routines derived from normalization of processes, normalization of skills, and normalization of results. The findings of the study show that routines support IT professionals to decide whether to exploit or explore in each particular case. Firstly, the enabling character of explicit routines as a result of the normalisation of work processes and …
La migración femenina, el trabajo doméstico asalariado y la violación de los derechos humanos
2015
The feminization of migrations, especially in the Mediterranean countries of Europe, is associated with new forms of exploitation of migrant labor. This article aims to analyze from this point of view the market of domestic and care work of migrant women in the homes of Italian families, placing it in relation to the deficiencies of national social policies. The analysis of this phenomenon in the Italian context - developed with the support of a series of interviews with migrant workers - reveals about these women and their families of origin the violation of certain fundamental human rights : primarily the right to the family unity, bound by the rules of family reunification, by the cohabi…
On Apache Log4j2 Exploitation in Aeronautical, Maritime, and Aerospace Communication
2022
Apache Log4j2 is a prevalent logging library for Java-based applications. In December 2021, several critical and high-impact software vulnerabilities, including CVE-2021-44228, were publicly disclosed, enabling remote code execution (RCE) and denial of service (DoS) attacks. To date, these vulnerabilities are considered critical and the consequences of their disclosure far-reaching. The vulnerabilities potentially affect a wide range of internet of things (IoT) devices, embedded devices, critical infrastructure (CI), and cyber-physical systems (CPSs). In this paper, we study the effects and feasibility of exploiting these vulnerabilities in mission-critical aviation and maritime environment…
Ancianos maltratados, ancianos que maltratan: abuso, negligencia, 'mobbing' y otras formas 'normales' de maltrato
2011
El artículo repasa la tipología más común del maltrato 'físico, emocional, sexual, económico-, así como la negligencia; y el abuso de confianza y la explotación por parte de las personas más próximas, como otras formas de maltrato consideradas 'normales'. La experiencia de la autora se basa en el ejercicio profesional coordinando un SAD para mayores durante veinticinco años, y recogido en su obra, '¿Se puede?'Trabajo social en domicilios de ancianos', premiado por el Colegio profesional de Cataluña y publicado en el 2009. A partir de ahí, propone una reflexión sobre una situación cada vez más extendida, pero que es encubierta por los propios mayores, y que exige a los profesionales informac…
Covid-19 and Inequalities. Protecting Human Rights of Migrants in a Time of Pandemic
2020
By focusing on the Italian context, this article explores the human rights violations that migrants systematically experience and that the current health crisis is unveiling and, in turn, producing. In particular, we look at these dynamics by taking into account four issues/dimensions: the access to essential services and benefits, such as food vouchers; working and living conditions; conditions in reception and detention centres; and the denial of entry to reach ports of safety.

Exploration and exploitation : organization's age and the nature of its innovative behavior
2015
This study examines the relationship of an organization's age and its innovative activity. The innovative activity of an organization is discussed and examined through the concepts of exploration and exploitation, basing on the previous literature on organizational ambidexterity. Three hypotheses on the relationship of aging and the innovative behavior of an organization are formed based on the ambidexterity literature and the theories of the effect of aging on an organization. These hypotheses are tested with logistic regression analyses on a patent data set covering the modern biotechnology industry in Finland between 1973–2008. The results of the analyses show that age has a weak but sig…
Reducing the Time to Detect Cyber Attacks : Combining Attack Simulation With Detection Logic
2021
Cyber attacks have become harder to detect, causing the average detection time of a successful data breach to be over six months and typically costing the target organization nearly four million dollars. The attacks are becoming more sophisticated and targeted, leaving unprepared environments easy prey for the attackers. Organizations with working antivirus systems and firewalls may be surprised when they discover their network has been encrypted by a ransomware operator. This raises a serious question, how did the attacks go undetected? The conducted research focuses on the most common pitfalls regarding late or even non-existent detection by defining the root cause behind the failed detec…
