The document summarizes key findings from an eBusiness survey of 196 representatives from life sciences companies across EMEA. It finds that:
- eBusiness satisfaction remains very low, with only 12% satisfied with their current activities. Most feel behind competitors.
- Digital activities are often not integrated and top bottlenecks are strategy, internal knowledge, and regulations.
- While digital budgets are still low, they are rising and expected to greatly increase by shifting funds from advertising and direct mail.
- eMarketing, eMedical and eSales are seen as generating the highest value, but more integration of web initiatives into CRM is needed.

Several infrastructure projects were completed including upgrading the Main Street and seafront areas. However, challenges remain such as a lack of affordable housing and homelessness. Cllr. Glynn expresses concern that abolishing Bray Town Council in 2014 will not serve the town well as it is a large urban area distinct from other parts of Wicklow County.

HijackLoader Evolution: Interactive Process HollowingDonato Onofri
CrowdStrike researchers have identified a HijackLoader (aka IDAT Loader) sample that employs sophisticated evasion techniques to enhance the complexity of the threat. HijackLoader, an increasingly popular tool among adversaries for deploying additional payloads and tooling, continues to evolve as its developers experiment and enhance its capabilities.
In their analysis of a recent HijackLoader sample, CrowdStrike researchers discovered new techniques designed to increase the defense evasion capabilities of the loader. The malware developer used a standard process hollowing technique coupled with an additional trigger that was activated by the parent process writing to a pipe. This new approach, called "Interactive Process Hollowing", has the potential to make defense evasion stealthier.
