Next-Generation Enterprise Security and Governance
The Internet is making our daily lives as digital as possible, and this new era is called the Internet of Everything (IoE).The key force behind the rapid growth of the Internet is the technological advancement of enterprises.The digital world we live in is facilitated by these enterprises’ advances and business intelligence.These enterprises need to deal with gazillions of bytes of data, and in today’s age of General Data Protection Regulation, enterprises are required to ensure privacy and security of large-scale data collections.However, the increased connectivity and devices used to facilitate IoE are continually creating more room for cybercriminals to find vulnerabilities in enterprise systems and flaws in their corporate governance.Ensuring cybersecurity and corporate governance for enterprises should not be an afterthought or present a huge challenge.In recent times, the complex diversity of cyber-attacks has been skyrocketing, and zero-day attacks, such as ransomware, botnet, and telecommunication attacks, are happening more frequently than before.New hacking strategies would easily bypass existing enterprise security and governance platforms using advanced, persistent threats.For example, in 2020, the Toll Group firm was exploited by a new crypto-attack family for violating its data privacy, where an advanced ransomware technique was launched to exploit the corporation and request a huge figure of monetary ransom.Even after applying rational governance hygiene, cybersecurity configuration and software updates are often overlooked when they are most needed to fight cyber-crime and ensure data privacy.Therefore, the threat landscape in the context of enterprises has become wider and far more challenging.There is a clear need for collaborative work throughout the entire value chain of this network.In this context, this book addresses the cybersecurity and cooperate governance challenges associated with enterprises, which will provide a bigger picture of the concepts, intelligent techniques, practices, and open research directions in this area.This book serves as a single source of reference for acquiring the knowledge on the technology, process, and people involved in next-generation privacy and security.

What is the definition of social security and social justice?
Social security refers to a government program that provides financial assistance to individuals who are retired, disabled, or unemployed. It is designed to ensure that people have a basic level of income and access to essential services. Social justice, on the other hand, is the concept of fair and equitable treatment for all members of society, regardless of their background or circumstances. It involves addressing inequalities and working towards a society where everyone has equal opportunities and rights. Both social security and social justice are important for creating a more inclusive and fair society.

"Equality before, but justice first?"
"Equality before, but justice first" suggests that while equality is important, it should not come at the expense of justice. This phrase emphasizes the need to address systemic injustices and inequalities in order to achieve true equality. It implies that simply treating everyone the same does not necessarily address the underlying issues of discrimination and oppression. Instead, it calls for prioritizing justice in order to create a more equitable society for all.

What are examples of IT security and information security?
Examples of IT security include implementing firewalls, antivirus software, and intrusion detection systems to protect networks and systems from cyber threats. Information security measures may include encrypting sensitive data, implementing access controls, and conducting regular security audits to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information. Both IT security and information security are essential to safeguarding an organization's digital assets and preventing unauthorized access or data breaches.

'Security or Freedom?'
The balance between security and freedom is a complex and delicate one. While security is essential for protecting individuals and society from harm, excessive security measures can encroach on personal freedoms. Conversely, too much freedom without adequate security measures can lead to chaos and endanger the well-being of individuals and society. Finding the right balance between security and freedom is crucial for maintaining a stable and just society. It requires thoughtful consideration of the potential risks and benefits of security measures, as well as a commitment to upholding fundamental human rights and freedoms.

Water for Food Security, Nutrition and Social Justice
This book is the first comprehensive effort to bring together Water, Food Security and Nutrition (FSN) in a way that goes beyond the traditional focus on irrigated agriculture.Apart from looking at the role of water and sanitation for human well-being, it proposes alternative and more locally appropriate ways to address complex water management and governance challenges from the local to global levels against a backdrop of growing uncertainties. The authors challenge mainstream supply-oriented and neo-Malthusian visions that argue for the need to increase the land area under irrigation in order to feed the world’s growing population.Instead, they argue for a reframing of the debate concerning production processes, waste, food consumption and dietary patterns whilst proposing alternative strategies to improve water and land productivity, putting the interests of marginalized and disenfranchized groups upfront. The book highlights how accessing water for FSN can be challenging for small-holders, vulnerable and marginalized women and men, and how water allocation systems and reform processes can negatively affect local people’s informal rights.The book argues for the need to improve policy coherence across water, land and food and is original in making a case for strengthening the relationship between the human rights to water and food, especially for marginalized women and men.It will be of great interest to practitioners, students and researchers working on water and food issues.

Do security bouncers become security guards at 17 years old?
In most places, individuals must be at least 18 years old to become licensed security guards. This age requirement is in place to ensure that individuals have the maturity and responsibility needed for the job. While some establishments may hire individuals as security bouncers at 17 years old for specific roles, they would not be considered licensed security guards until they meet the legal age requirement.

What is the difference between IT security and information security?
IT security and information security are often used interchangeably, but there is a subtle difference between the two. IT security primarily focuses on protecting the digital infrastructure, networks, and systems from unauthorized access, cyber threats, and data breaches. On the other hand, information security encompasses a broader scope, including the protection of all forms of sensitive and valuable information, whether it is in digital or physical form. Information security also involves safeguarding data privacy, compliance with regulations, and managing risks associated with the storage and transmission of information. In summary, while IT security is a subset of information security, the latter encompasses a wider range of protective measures for all types of information assets.

What experiences have you had with security or airport security?
I have had several experiences with airport security while traveling. I have gone through the standard security screening process, including removing my shoes, belt, and electronics, and placing them in the bins for X-ray scanning. I have also been randomly selected for additional screening, which involved a pat-down and a more thorough inspection of my carry-on items. Overall, I have found airport security to be a necessary inconvenience in order to ensure the safety of all passengers.
