The document discusses how to improve mobility of cultural collections across borders by harmonizing standards, processes, and documentation. It proposes adopting a single European framework for cultural loans documentation based on the International SPECTRUM standard to remove constraints. Standardizing key elements and making documents openly available could simplify processes and build trust among institutions to increase the rate of collection sharing. While the current system works organically, targeted efforts are needed to drive further efficiency gains in how the international cultural heritage network operates.
Insider threat: tackling cyber security risk from inside your organisation. This event provided an overview of the current state of understanding of who the “insiders” are; how they operate; what motivates them and what threats they pose to information systems.

Libraries in China have seen a rapid growth in Intellectual Property Information Service (IPIS) centers over the past few years, with over 100 established. These centers were encouraged by the Chinese government to support innovation and patent applications. They provide services like patent searches, analysis of patent trends, and support for industries. While still developing, they represent a promising new direction for academic research libraries in China. Compared to the US, where similar centers have existed longer in libraries but not transformed them, the growth of IPIS centers could impact the transformation of Chinese academic libraries.

Tools like Google dorking, the Wayback Machine and Shodan allow searching open webpages and networks for intelligence.
The document discusses converting data into information using NumPy and Pandas Python libraries. It covers topics like arrays and matrices, different data formats, NumPy operations for linear algebra and math, and Pandas for working with labeled data and performing analyses like sorting, filtering, and correlations. The goal is to understand how to structure and analyze data using these Python tools.
The document discusses information security, defense mechanisms, and risks. It outlines concepts like data, information, knowledge and wisdom. It describes kill chain models used to investigate security incidents and defenses that use layers like deterrence, detection, protection, reaction, recovery, and auditing. The document also covers risks, costs, benefits, and harm from physical, economic, psychological and reputational impacts.
This document discusses cybersecurity, intelligence, and the differences between human and machine intelligence. It provides an overview of cybersecurity job roles and frameworks. It also covers types of intelligence including naturalist, musical, logical-mathematical, existential, and inter-personal. Humans are described as having advantages in areas like creativity, perception, memory, verbal skills, and reasoning compared to current computer capabilities. Motivations for cyberattacks include entertainment, hacktivism, financial gain, spying, and revenge.
The document discusses ARTiFACTS, a platform that uses blockchain technology to provide attribution for research works. It allows researchers to establish proof of authorship, protect and share research materials, and receive valid attribution and credit for any research output. Researchers, scholars, and publishers can integrate with the ARTiFACTS open platform. It provides a case study of its partnership with the journal JBBA, where researchers can link supporting files and publications to receive citations.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
