This collection of highlights from VTT safety and security research brings to light the vast diversity of the field. In the past, safety and security was all about protecting individuals from threats and dangers in their immediate surroundings. Today, the concept has evolved to encompass entire living environments and the whole of society. Safety and security needs are constantly changing â and the science of safety is evolving accordingly, from reactively studying why things go wrong to proactively learning what makes things go right.
Globalisation has enabled the beneficial free movement of many things, but it has also brought new risks and dangers. Emerging technologies, and their potential for misuse, also present significant new threats. These changes have transformed the basic nature of safety and security, from protection and control of losses to holistic cultivation of operations and resilient facilities and structures. While technology alone cannot assure safety or security, they are unattainable without its support. Many factors contribute to creating and improving safety and security â including their perception in the eye of the user.
5th International Disaster and Risk Conference IDRC 2014 Integrative Risk Management - The role of science, technology & practice 24-28 August 2014 in Davos, Switzerland
Safety concerns are central to all humanitarian work. The responsibility for personal safety lies both with individuals and the organizations they are working for and with. But how can humanitarian professionals mitigate risks and limit their exposure to violence while working in a violent area? How can individuals and organizations avoid being targets for violence? What are the procedures and systems that can ensure safety on mission, and what can individuals and organizations do to improve safety?
This session opened a discussion on both personal and systemic approaches to avoiding and mitigating safety risks involved in humanitarian work.

Risk management of telecommunication and engineering laboratorySalam Shah
Â
The Telecommunication laboratory plays an important role in carrying out research in the different fields like Telecommunication, Information Technology, Wireless Sensor Networks, Mobile Networks and many other fields. Every Engineering University has a setup of laboratories for students particularly for Ph.D. scholars to work on the performance analysis of different Telecommunication Networks including WLANs, 3G/4G, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). The laboratories help students to have hand on practice on the theoretical concepts they have learned during the teachings at the university. The technical subjects have a practical part also which boosts the knowledge of students and learning of new ideas. The Telecommunication and Engineering laboratories are equipped with different electronic equipmentâs like digital trainers, simulators etc. and some additional supportive devices like computers, air conditioners, projectors, and large screens, with power backup facility that creates the perfect environment for experimentation. The setup of Telecommunication and Engineering laboratories cost huge amount, required to purchase equipment, and maintain the equipment. In any working environment risk factor is involved. To handle and avoid risks there must be risk management policy to tackle with accidents and other damages during working in the laboratory, may it be human or equipment at risk. In this paper, we have proposed a risk management policy for the Telecommunication and Engineering laboratories, which can be generalized for similar type of laboratories in engineering fields of studies.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
Â
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more âmechanicalâ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

14. IV Hazard Risk Management Research Responsibility + = Sustainable innovation Biosecurity shouldnât be dependent on one serious caretaker. When the caretaker leaves security is lost. Bio security should be integrated in an overall hazard risk management system which is grounded in a culture of united responsibility
Editor's Notes
Some scientists believe that their only responsibility is to do research and everything else is for the university at the other hand sustainability can only exist by being responsible
Professors want to teach their students everything, especially if they are interested which may lead to security problems. The probability of an incident is low but when there is an incident, it is a severe one.
Some people donât take the biosecurity risks seriously enough so it is likely that they will not take the measurements seriously enough and when you are not conscious of risks, things that shouldnât happen will happen. Researchers might approach risk with a safety approach, like a risk incident is an act of god. They take measurements and think that it will never happen again. However when you look at security objects, there is always someone that is thinking about getting around these measures.
When you look at risk, in general, there are two types Dynamic risk: which can provide for either a profit or a loss. (Enterprise) Static risk: which can only provide for a loss (Hazard) Together with the audit manager, you adopted the idea to look at risk management in a wide scope so you could cover enterprise management. We started with hazard risk because people seem to think that enterprise risk is about their daily work and donât realize that there are other kinds of risk.
The university needed someone to implement hazard risk management within the university. We decided that there needed to be a hazard risk management system that covered the entire scope of the university, including both safety and security and ICT security and all processes needed to be united included, such as every small unit dealing with parts of security and safety so that all processes could be viewed and controlled as one system.
We began the project by looking at hazard risks in this context and connecting them to organizational goals. For instance, why do we need a university? To educate students and to do research. The strategy was developed in align to these goals. We collected the interest of all faculties and business units and try to view them from a central point and create a central organizing force so we could tell the board of directors that the university is in control.
The System: The policy: Implement security and safety from the point of view of risk management. all units deal with their operational issues of hazard risk but only within one organization which is responsible for the whole process. 31-01-11

This includes priority setting.
Implementation and control Handbook developed which covers several issues that should be managed within the faculties. For instance, protecting valuable assets. Biosecurity is included in the concept plans Once security and safety goals are set, it is up to the faculties to decide how they want to reach the goals. They can use any means of security or safety they want and in most cases will apply best practices.
A security problem needs strategic solutions and control measures that begin by taking account of the existing organization and organizational responsibilities and are developed from there. This ensures that the measures will be sustainable within the organization.
Universities mostly are Profi-naĂŻve t.i. professional in knowledge and research NaĂŻve in trusting every bright student researcher or employee Traditional security measures like camera and fences are difficult to operationalize in universities because universities prefer an open climate where knowledge and information is openly shared In universities you need to make individuals responsible
