    Private Public Partnership Project (PPP) Large-scale Integrated Project (IP) D12.4.3: Report on Campus Party Events (FIWARE Activities/Actions) Project acronym: FIWARE Project full title: Future Internet Core Platform Contract No.: 285248 Strategic Objective: FI.ICT-2011.1.7 Technology foundation: Future Internet Core Platform Project Document Number: ICT-2011-FI-285248-WP12-D12.4.3 Project Document Date: 2014-09-29 Deliverable Type and Security: PU Author: FIWARE Consortium Contributors: FIWARE Consortium Future Internet Core Platform 1.1 Executive Summary This report is part of the dissemination tasks, as framed in the Communication, Collaboration and Dissemination activities of the FIWARE project. As part of the dissemination actions proposed by the partners selected during FIWARE’s third call for new partners, the project was going to be actively introduced at various Campus Party events between 2013 and 2014. Periodic reports have been published after these events. More specifically – and also depending on the own Campus Party dates: • The first report was delivered in October 2013, about the Campus Party Europe in London (held during September 2013). • The second report was delivered at the end of February 2014, including the project’s activities during the Campus Party Brazil in Sao Paulo (held between January and February 2014) • This final one, partially due to the postponement of Campus Party Europe to 2015 (after the project’s lifespan) and partially to the own interest of the FIWARE project in deploying and properly promoting the Mexican node of the FIWARE Lab, includes all the activities that took place in the Campus Party Mexico (CPMX5) in Zapopan, state of Jalisco, by the end of June 2014.

  • Undergraduate Thesis Paper
    An Analysis of the Level of Concern Displayed Among the Malone University Undergraduate Student Body in Regards to their Online Personal Information Security Scott Markle Malone University; HON 496 December 1st, 2020 Advisor: Dr. Kyle Calderhead, Ph.D Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation from the Malone University Honors Program 0 Analysis of Online Personal Information Security Abstract The 21st century is one that is dominated by rapid technological advancements. Increased utilization of these technological betterments have created a multitude of security vulnerabilities. In this thesis, I assess the level of concern displayed among the undergraduate student population of Malone University, located in Canton, Ohio, in regards to the vulnerability of their personal online information. Nine questions, with focuses in cybersecurity scenarios, defense strategies, and threat response, were asked of participants in an online survey. From the quantitative results of these questions, trends were interpreted and conclusions drawn. Keywords: cybersecurity, Malone University, technology, vulnerabilities, cyberpsychology, information, students, college, concern, Likert scale 1 Analysis of Online Personal Information Security Acknowledgements My dearest thanks to my thesis advisor, Dr. Kyle Calderhead, Ph.D., for all of the insight, advice, and knowledge he provided me with over the course of this long endeavor, as well as during my time at Malone University as a whole. My additional thanks to Prof. Ann Lawson, M.B.A., and Dr. Jim Glasgow, Ph.D., for being wonderful members of my thesis committee. Your wisdom and eXpertise in your respective fields helped add so much depth to this research. My additional thanks to Julia Karmie and James Kontur, two of my dear friends from high school, who began their thesis eXperiences with me at Malone at the same time.

    The Daily Campus Serving the Storrs Community Since 1896 Vol.XCIIINo.81 The University of Connecticut Tuesday, February 20,1990 Czech leader visits White House today WASHINGTON (AP) — Vaclav Havel, the dissident playwright who went from prison to the presidency of Czechoslovakia inside of eight months, will meet with President Bush today, the first of Eastern Europe's new democratic leaders to visit the White House. Havel arrived here Monday evening after slops in Iceland and Canada on a Western trip that comes conspicuously a week before his first trip to Moscow. The Czech Parliament elected Havel president Dec. 29, a few weeks after a peaceful revolution led to the ouster of Communist Party chief Milos Jakes and his hardline government. Now the country, under Havel's caretaker government, is pre- paring for June 8th parliamentary elections that will be its first free balloting in more than 40 years. Havel has said he is coming West not to look for charity but investment in a country that already maintains a standard of living well above that of Poland, its neighbor to the north. "Czechoslovakia is not looking for U.S. aid. They arc not in the same economic dire straits that ... Poland has been in," a senior Bush administration official said. Secretary of State James A.

  • OBSERVER: Copernicus Relays Bringing Space Closer to People – the Case of Argentina
    OBSERVER: Copernicus Relays bringing space closer to people – the case of Argentina 1 / 7 Enthusiasm, entrepreneurship & space are in Space Latam’s focus. Credit: Space Latam It is indisputable that international cooperation is an essential condition for reaching global wellbeing objectives such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). International cooperation is also of the utmost importance to the Copernicus programme. With the network of Copernicus free and open data users spanning the globe, the programme is an important contributor to SDGs and economies worldwide. Space Latam, an Argentinian representative of the Copernicus Relays, is an excellent example of how the global community benefits from Copernicus and its networks. As part of the Space Strategy for Europe, the European Commission established a network of Copernicus ambassadors: the Copernicus Relays. These act as local champions, coordinating and promoting activities related to the Copernicus programme, bringing benefits and opportunities for 2 / 7 people, businesses, start-ups, researchers and governments. Space Latam, the Copernicus Relay in Argentina, was one of the earliest organisations to enter the Copernicus Relay network. The organisation submitted their application to join the network in 2016, just months after the official launch of the Copernicus Relay and Copernicus Academy networks in Brussels. When applying, José Bosleman Medina, the Director of the Argentinian Copernicus Relay- to-be, modestly mentioned that Space Latam people are volunteers with almost no budget available to finance their activities, but reassured the reviewers that he had a fantastic, hard-working team with great potential, energy and network. Space Latam far exceeded expectations and now has a large team of young experts who provide support to Argentinian start-ups and SMEs in the space sector through mentoring, hackathons, workshops and other initiatives.
