Ransomware and Cybercrime

In May 2021 Jim Gosler known as the Godfather and commander of US agencies’ cyber offensive capability said ''Either the Intelligence Community (IC) would grow and adapt or the Internet would eat us alive. '' Mr Gosler was speaking at his retirement only several months before the terrorist attacks of 9/11. He possibly did not realise the catalyst or the tsunami that he and his tens of thousands of US IC offensive website operatives had created and commenced. Over the last two decades what Mr Gosler and his army of Internet keyboard warriors created would become the modus operandi for every faceless nameless state-sponsored or individual cybercriminal to replicate against an unwary ill-protected and ignorant group of executives and security professionals who knew little to nothing about the clandestine methods of infiltration and weaponisation of the Internet that the US and UK agencies led all in the name of security. This book covers many cyber and ransomware attacks and events including how we have gotten to the point of massive digital utilisation particularly during the global lockdown and COVID-19 pandemic to online spending that will see twice the monetary amount lost to cybercrime than what is spent online. There is little to no attribution and with the IC themselves suffering cyberattacks they are all blamed on being sophisticated ones of course. We are witnessing the undermining of our entire way of life our economies and even our liberties. The IC has lots to answer for and unequivocally created the disastrous situation we are currently in. They currently have little to no answer. We need—no we must demand—change. That change must start by ensuring the Internet and all connections to it are secure and no longer allow easy access and exfiltration for both the ICs and cybercriminals. | Ransomware and Cybercrime

Minorities in Shark Sciences Diverse Voices in Shark Research

Minorities in Shark Sciences showcases the work done by Black Indigenous and People of Color around the world in the fields of shark science and conservation. Edited by three minority researchers it provides positive role models for the next generation. Highlighting new and important research done in the fields of biology ecology and evolution the book places emphasis on scientists with diverse backgrounds and expertise from around the world. The heart of this book is that community and minority voices are important (and have always been) to science regardless of diplomas/universities/accolades/western standards of academia. Despite the use of the term ‘Minorities’ most of the world’s population do not identify as white nor male and in fact all minorities together comprise the global majority of humans. For those in these historically underserved and underrepresented demographics it is meaningful to be highlighted and be given credit for their contributions. This book showcases to the world the many Black Indigenous People of Color and LGTBQ+ scientists leading marine conservation both in terms of scientific research and science communication. It has been shown in the literature that diversity in scientists creates diversity in thought which leads to innovation. Strong minority voices are exactly what is needed to bring greater attention to the conservation of sharks and this book illustrates innovative science by people who were historically excluded from STEM. It highlights the unique perspectives these scientists bring to their field that allow them to interact with stakeholders particularly in the areas of conservation and outreach. As we continue to amplify these often-forgotten voices through research outreach and engagement we hope to stimulate innovation and transformative change in the field of shark conservation and marine science. | Minorities in Shark Sciences Diverse Voices in Shark Research
