Google LLC is a technological company from America which specializes in Internet-related products and services. Some of the products and services which are offered by Google include search engines, cloud computing, hardware, software, and online advertising technologies. It is considered among the Big Four companies which also include Apple, Amazon, and Facebook. The organization was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1998. The founders were Ph.D. students at Stanford University in California. All facilities are subject to a certain level of risk which can be associated with different threats. The threats may be as a result of natural events, intentional acts by human beings to cause harm or accidents (Maglaras et al., 2018). The owners of companies have the responsibility of limiting or managing the risks arising from the threats to the maximum extent possible.
Tangible Assets
Google is one of the best technology companies in the world with a high number of tangible assets within its premises, especially in the headquarters located in Mountain View, California. The information systems, critical infrastructure, and cyber-related interests to be tested include the software of the company, hardware, system interfaces with consideration of internal and external connectivity, data and information, and people who use and support IT system. The aspects will be assessed because they are crucial to the day to day operations of the facility, and a breach in any aspect may lead to major disruption of services. The aspects which will not be assessed include IT system functional requirements, system users, current network topology system security policies which guide the use of the IT system and the architecture of security of the system. The aspects will not be assessed because of the minimal threat they pose to the system, and low probability of risk to arise from them. Moreover, the disruption of the items does not lead to significant interference in the operation of the organization.
Asset Descriptions
The following is a diagram of the flow of assessment activities:
The assets descriptions are outlined below:
· Hardware- Physical parts of the computers.
· IT personnel- Individuals operating computer systems.
Threat Agents and Possible Attacks
There are several threat agents and possible attacks that may face the organization. the company may be subject to floods which may be as a result of excessive rainfall or overflowing ocean water. Tornadoes are also a possible threat to the organization, and these are violent and destructive rotating winds. Other possible natural threats to the organization headquarters include earthquakes, electrical storms, and avalanches. Electrical storms involve the violent disturbance of the electr.

Ergonomic Hazard Assessment: Machine Shop

Ergonomic Hazard Assessment: Machine Shop
A machine shop is one of the popular workstations today. Most of them comprise both electrical and mechanical works. Consequently, such workshops occasion numerous critical mechanical and electrical works risks. The current post explores the ergonomics hazards involved in these sites. Machine shops expose people to ergonomics dangers such as high temperatures and heat, noise, and electric shocks; hence, there should always be extreme appropriate preventive measures such as wearing protective gear.
High temperatures are one of the common stressors in machine shops. The heat from burning frames or electric heaters is necessary for electroplating and soldering, among other purposes. Nevertheless, it exposes workers to the risks of catching fire and burning (Akaninwor, Obed, & Enyiche, 2019). Approximately 40% of deaths in the construction industry in the U.S are heat-related (OSHA, 2021). High temperatures are also associated with heat illnesses such as heat stroke, heat exhaustion, and heat rash, which appear with symptoms like confusion, seizures, heavy sweating, irritability, dizziness, nausea, and headache, besides painful cramps and tired muscles.
Noise is another stressor. In machine shops, noise originates from works such as welding and grinding. Noise is unpleasant because it damages the delicate hair cells in the inner ear and causes noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Once damaged, Akaninwor, Obed, and Enyiche (2019) argue that cilia—the microscopic hair cells inside the cochlea, cannot repair themselves, leading to deafness. One of the preventive measures against noise is periodic testing of noise to ensure that it does not exceed recommended levels. Workers should also wear protective gear such as sound marks (OSHA, 2021). Noise is a dangerous stressor, and no workplace should ever overlook it.
Machine shops also entail numerous risks, and electric shock is one of them. Common causes of this risk involve workers' contact with uninsulated conducting wires. Electric shocks are associated with fatal injuries such as burns, cardiac arrest and other internal damages, and death. Precautionary measures against this risk include wearing dry gloves (Gibson & Wayne, 2013). Firms should also always inspect electrode holders for damage and insulation.
Other risks comprise welding, machine fumes, and gases. All these fumes contain toxic substances such as metal oxides, which cause severe health issues when inhaled. Short-term inhalation is associated with nausea, dizziness, or eye, nose, and throat irritation. On the other hand, long-term exposure may lead to lung cancer, larynx cancer, and urinary tract cancer, other than the nervous system, and kidney damages or failure (Gibson & Wayne, 2013). Accordingly, workers should always wear gas masks and welding goggles to protect themselves from the gasses besides work ...

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
