  • Astronomy and Space Science Curricula at University Level in Pakistan
    The Sindh University Journal of Education Vol.42 Issue 2012-13, Pp.40-54 INGILA RAHIM* MUHAMMAD RASHID KAMAL ANSARI** TEACHING OF ASTRONOMY AND SPACE SCIENCE: ASTRONOMY AND SPACE SCIENCE CURRICULA AT UNIVERSITY LEVEL IN PAKISTAN Abstract It is the Continuation of our review of contents of astronomy and space Sciences curricula in Pakistan (I. Rahim, R.K. Ansari, A.K.Zai, 2011) which dealt with only pre-university level curricula in Pakistan whereas, the present study reviews the university level curricula in Pakistan. There are two types of higher education institutions in Pakistan. The state governed (Public sector) universities and institutes and the private sector universities and degree issuing institutions. Also, there are institutions under military control and R & D organizations. We will review the curricula of some such institutions and compare with curricula of United Nations programs on space applications. It is concluded that the standard and span of AS and SS courses at university level curricula in Pakistan have highly been raised. However, no institution is granting degree in the specific area of commercial and industrial uses of space. This means that as a nation we have just stepped on but not yet have started the journey to participate in the activities of industrialization and Commercialization of space and more efforts have to be put in this regard.

  • Cyber Attack Targeting Indian Navy's Submarine and Warship Manufacturer - Cysinfo
    2/28/2017 Cyber Attack Targeting Indian Navy's Submarine and Warship Manufacturer - Cysinfo CYBER ATTACK TARGETING INDIAN NAVY’S SUBMARINE AND WARSHIP MANUFACTURER 3 WEEKS AGO • ARTICLES • 21 In my previous blog posts I described attack campaigns targeting Indian government organizations, and Indian Embassies and Ministry of External aairs. In this blog post I describe a new attack campaign where cyber espionage group targeted the users of Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (also called as ship builder to the nation). Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL) is a Public Sector Undertaking of Government of India (Ministry of Defence) and it specializes in manufacturing warships and submarines for the Indian Navy. In order to infect the users associated with Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL), the attackers distributed spear-phishing emails containing malicious excel le which when opened drops a malware capable of spying on infected systems. The email purported to have been sent from legitimate email ids. The attackers spoofed the email id associated with a Spain based equipment manufacturing company Hidrofersa which specializes in designing, manufacturing naval, industrial and mining machinery. Overview of the Malicious Emails On 26th January, 2017 Indian Navy displayed its state-of-the-art stealth guided missile destroyer INS Chennai and the indigenously- made Kalvari class Scorpene submarines at the Republic Day parade showcasing India’s military strength and achievements. INS Chennai and Kalvari class submarines were manufactured by Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL). On 25th January (day before the Republic day) attackers spoofed an email id associated with Hidrofersa a Spain based company which specializes in designing, manufacturing naval, industrial and mining machinery and the email was sent to the users of Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL).
