Most people have no idea what is made and assembled in their Loss of employment land has an impact borough, because industrial areas are on levels of local employment and unwelcoming and do not have a public economic activity and business rates face. It is difficult to gain an appreciation of revenue. The presence of trades and skills their scale and purpose without observing and manufacturing in London, is also them first hand. This project provides challenged. the opportunity to enquire into the scale of industrial uses and outputs in some key employment areas in Tottenham, in the Lea Valley. We aim to understand the variety of different types of business in some of the defined employment areas, establish contacts wherever possible, and communicate our findings in a way that is both robust and accessible. The ambition is that this study will help shift perceptions of the industrial areas in the borough, emphasising their positive contribution to the character and identity of the area. Further, the aim is to provide a motivation to boost business, invest in growth and help in finding ways to create new jobs in the Borough. Experience elsewhere in the Lea Valley, and isolated case studies suggested there could be rich variety and sometimes surprising range of activities in the industrial areas. London’s traditional manufacturing bases may have diminished, Team Members: moved outside London or overseas, but the places they used to inhabit are still heavily used by many smaller organisations than Gort Scott Architects previously, including professional services, Project lead charities, creative and media companies, Research and survey as well as much distribution, export and import.

The survey area therefore includes 10 Defined Employment Areas (DEA), as shown on the map overleaf. These DEAs are made up of Strategic Industrial Locations, Locally Significant Industrial Sites (LSIS) and Local Employment Areas 3.1 Strategic Industrial Locations (SIL) Many of the Borough’s Defined Employment Areas are also within Strategic Industrial Locations, as designated in the London Plan, providing a Londonwide network of spaces for Industry, Business and Warehousing. SIL areas amongst our sites include: Brantwood Road (DEA3), Garman Road/Unicorn Works (DEA12), Millmead and Lockwood (DEA11). Most uses will be in the B use classes. 3.2 Local Employment Areas (LEA) and Locally Significant Industrial Sites (LSIS) Local Employment Areas are identified in the Core Strategy (now known as the Local Plan) as places in the borough where businesses are strategically located.

The borough is being supported by the ‘Tottenham Taskforce’; made up of private sector experts and representatives of the GLA and Haringey Council this group is advising the regeneration programme for Tottenham and using its knowledge and contacts to make investment and regeneration happen straight away. The plan sets out Haringey’s vision until 2025, and how to achieve objectives in the immediate and long term. The plan aims at building better since the riots of August 2011, through economic growth, investment, improved neighbourhoods and regeneration of key sites The Plan states that by 2025, there will be: • Up to 10,000 new high quality homes • Over 5,000 new jobs created or accessed with almost a million square feet of employment and commercial space added • A new leisure destination in Northumberland Park, serviced by a new White Hart Lane station and improved public realm that enhances the local high street and becomes a genuine year round destination • A new civic hub and excellent open space at Tottenham Green • A new gateway to Seven Sisters • A revamped station at Tottenham Hale, suitable for an international transport and growth hub GORT SCOTT Tottenham Employment Study 2013 11 SURVEY 4.

  • A Worldwide Survey of Encryption Products
    A Worldwide Survey of Encryption Products February 11, 2016 Version 1.0 Bruce Schneier Berkman Center for Internet & Society Harvard University [email protected] Kathleen Seidel Independent Researcher [email protected] Saranya Vijayakumar Harvard College [email protected] Introduction Data security is a worldwide problem, and there is a wide world of encryption solutions available to help solve this problem. Most of these products are developed and sold by for-profit entities, although some are created as free open-source projects. They are available, either for sale or free download, all over the world. In 1999, a group of researchers from George Washington University attempted to survey the worldwide market for encryption products [HB+99]. The impetus for their survey was the ongoing debate about US encryption export controls. By collecting information about 805 hardware and software encryption products from 35 countries outside the US, the researchers showed that restricting the export of encryption products did nothing to reduce their availability around the world, while at the same time putting US companies at a competitive disadvantage in the information security market. Seventeen years later, we have tried to replicate this survey. • • • • • • • • • A Worldwide Survey of Encryption Products • Feb 2016, v 1.0 1 Findings We collected information on as many encryption products as we could find anywhere in the world. This is a summary of our findings: • We have identified865 hardware or software products incorporating encryption from 55 different coun- tries. This includes 546 encryption products from outside the US, representing two-thirds of the total. Table 1 summarizes the number of products from each country.

Sinsheimer, Bulletin of Atomic Scientists Introduction The sounds drifted over the long green lawn, so faint they could have been the crying of ravens in the nearby wood, or the distant braying of a mule on the farm across the brown river. The peace of the spring morning was almost undisturbed. One had to listen carefully to the sounds to make certain they were screams. The massive bulk of Featherwood Park’s administrative building lay half-hidden beneath ancient cottonwood trees.
