Selecting a suitable security solution for the ICT sector.

Selecting a suitable security solution for the ICT sector.

When we are choosing a data security solution, the user-friendly and automatized solution might feel good. But the thing is that when we are choosing the solution, we must remember that all software and other maintenance operations are owned and made by somebody. And that thing is making the new kind of threats for security. The thing is that the spies, who might operate in the public or private sector, might want to cover the data, what they steal, that nobody else than people, who are willing to pay that data would use it.

If we think the case, that internet security company starts to attack against us, we might feel paranoid. But then we must realize, that we might know somebody, or in our social media or real-life social media network, the thing is that there might be somebody, who might want to target for attackers by using us as the gate.

This is one thing, what we must realize when we are selecting the ICT-security solution. And before we are starting to do anything, we must make analyze, what kind of threat we will face. That thing is helping us to select the service and programs, which are most suitable for us. Here I must say, that there are two ways to hack the system, one is the technological hacking, and another version is social hacking.

The best example of social hacking is that some good-looking girl comes to ask the passwords or something like that from the ICT-team. This person might be looking innocent, but the thing is that this individual would use the space of some company for installing stethoscopes, what are equipped with microphones to walls, and also put on the server for surveillance cameras to that office. Those actions can be made for surveillance or just spoiling the reputation of some company, and making difficulties for its business.

There are other ways to attack, and one is the hybrid attack, where the Email or some other message will cheat person to use some bandit WLAN station, and that makes possible to create "the man-in-middle" attack against some target. In this attack all data, what some computer sends and receives travels through another computer, what can copy single bit in that traffic. In that process, the attacker's computer can replace original data by using faked data, and this might be used in propaganda operations.

This is a very effective way to observe the use of network-based data. And this is the thing, what the most of computer usage today is. We are using a computer or data networks every time, and if somebody would hack that transmitting, our privacy might be gone.

Whenever we are using mobile systems like cell-phones, we are using mobile networks, which are similar to WLAN networks, but their range is greater. If somebody can hack that system, the privacy is gone, but also mobile payments and other kinds of things are uncovering things, what we might not want to tell other people. But even if we think, that there is nothing to hide in our own lives, in our social life would contain people, who might be good targets for professional hackers.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
