HIGH TIME FOR CYBERLAW

 

High Time for Cyberlaw Enforcement and a Future of Work Strategy


centralized cyberlaw enforcement


Huawei has events where it pulls together key analysts to focus on problems it thinks are critical to the future. At its last event, Huawei spoke about two areas that need considerable work.

One is that we need an international cybersecurity commission with teeth before some country accidentally starts WWIII with a cyberattack. The recent SolarWinds attack was a case in point. Allegedly from Russia, this attack penetrated some of the most secure facilities and could have resulted in a catastrophic failure in infrastructure, potentially resulting in mass loss of life. We got lucky this time and may not be so lucky the next.

Huawei CSO Andy Purdy also spoke about the lack of a comprehensive strategy for the future of work post-COVID-19 coming from any country. The EU did develop one, but it severely lacked in needed detail to be used as a guideline for firms like Huawei to build for the future. I did market and business analysis when I was in IBM, and part of that job was to forecast the future so that future products could meet those anticipated future needs.

I later became aware of Intel's Science Fiction Prototyping effort created by my old friend Brian David Johnson, which the DoD utilized though I'm not sure it survived the last administration.

Let's talk this week about the critical need for centralized cyberlaw enforcement -- and international cyberlaws -- and the need for a clear vision on the future of work. We'll close with my product of the week, a new 40" curved monitor from Dell, which may be the ultimate monitor for those of us who work from home.

EDGE COMPUTING

EDGE COMPUTING Timeline of Computing The timeline of computing looks something like this: At first, there was one big computer; after that came the UNIX era; then we were introduced to personal computers, which led to the cloud computing era. And now, we find ourselves in the next stage of computing, named the Edge computing era. Nowadays we use our personal computers to access centralized services such as Gmail, Google Drive, cloud storage, office 365… The personal assistants on our smartphones and smart speakers are powered by centralized cloud artificial intelligence. We can say with certainty that the new opportunities of cloud services are located at the “EDGE.” Even though we are still in the cloud computing era – we can say that our cloud infrastructure relies much on hosting companies and compute power of the very few who are providing it for us: Amazon, Microsoft, IBM, and Google. Why do we call it Edge? The word Edge is used in the context of geographic distribution. Edge com...

INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT)

  Internet of Things (IoT) Another promising new technology trend is IoT. Many “things” are now being built with WiFi connectivity, meaning they can be connected to the Internet—and to each other. Hence, the Internet of Things, or IoT. The Internet of Things is the future, and has already enabled devices, home appliances, cars and much more to be connected to and exchange data over the Internet. As consumers, we’re already using and benefitting from IoT. We can lock our doors remotely if we forget to when we leave for work and preheat our ovens on our way home from work, all while tracking our fitness on our Fitbits. However, businesses also have much to gain now and in the near future. The IoT can enable better safety, efficiency and decision making for businesses as data is collected and analyzed. It can enable predictive maintenance, speed up medical care, improve customer service, and offer benefits we haven’t even imagined yet. And we’re only in the beginni...
