The document discusses information sharing and cyber defense, focusing on the role of the Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) organization. It notes that effective cyber defense requires cooperation between the national CERT, government agencies, industry peers, standards bodies, universities and technology companies to share cyber threat intelligence and best practices. The CERT aims to monitor networks, respond to incidents, conduct forensic analysis and research, while operating under the regulatory framework of the National Cyber Bureau and privacy laws.

Wi-Fi Driving Mobile Internet Explosion in Next Generation NetworksGreen Packet
The proliferation of Wi-Fi enabled devices and growth in Wi-Fi hotspot deployment is predicted to rise 350% by 2015 and it is necessary for operators to innovate quickly to an ecosystem of scalable, integrated, efficient network to drive customers experience; offload busy mobile broadband networks; and provide a value-added services platform.
Operators are turning customer centric strategies to pragmatic practice. Universally, operators have expressed strong interest to derive revenues beyond connectivity. The vision of broadband has allowed juggling a mix between cost, revenue, intelligence and performance. In this paper, the study of Wi-Fi explores the potential of new generation of services, connected devices value chain and growth opportunities from emerging embedded systems that is worthwhile investing strategically.
Shift of connectedness is key component in bringing new services to market, closing the gap on disparate radio technologies onto integrated delivery platform for smart monetization of new service models and simplifying the Wi-Fi experience altogether.
Leading in the converged future becoming an agile telcoInfosys BPM
The convergence of networks, systems and devices is revolutionizing the communications industry. As technological progress redefines the marketplace, Communication Service Providers
(CSPs) or telecommunications companies (telcos) face a unique set of lucrative opportunities and momentous challenges. Developing economies are opening up to offer CSPs enormous untapped markets. At the same time, emerging players are providing stiff competition through
innovative and competitively priced offerings, taking customer expectations to new highs.
If CSPs are to win this game, they must closely engage with their customers while improving their service proposition. They need to work relentlessly toward reducing costs, improving profitability, becoming agile, and transforming the organization to keep pace with the changing paradigms of the world. This calls for increased operational efficiencies, integrated processes and rapid roll- out of novel and niche products in new geographies.
This paper outlines the four-pronged approach CSPs need to adopt to secure and maintain their leadership position in an industry hit by a tidal wave of change.

This report is the second on the IntelCities Community of Practice (CoP) and outlines the integrated - innovation seeking and knowledge creating - model of eGov services developed under the shared enterprise of the organisation’s capacity-building activities, co-design actions, monitoring and evaluation exercises. This offers a synopsis of the information technology (IT) adopted by the IntelCities CoP to develop the organisation’s e-learning platform, Knowledge Management System and digital library as a set of semantically-interoperable eGov services supporting the crime, safety and security initiatives of socially-inclusive and participatory urban regeneration programmes.

Insurance companies face several challenges like industry consolidation, regulatory pressures, shrinking margins, and along with that, demands from shareholders and stakeholders are quite high to stay competitive. In order to stay competitive, they need to transform their processes and operations, improve profitability, reduce cost and meet the ever growing need for improved customer service.
See how MphasiS utilizes various technology resources to improve the insurance industry's operations.
