Underwater cyber threat clutching the pace of technical innovation

 Digitalization is the startling modernization to connect global people. Internet dependency is of paramount importance for robust business operations and healthy living. Heavy reliance on digital technologies also offers grand avenues for cybercrime actors to intrude the technical system and deceit the users. Undersea cables are the radar of cyber offenders to ruin the internet, steal sensitive data and disrupt the business operations of giant organizations.


Undersea cables, also termed as submarine communications cables made up of fiber-optic cables. These cables are placed on the deep-sea floor to transmit the online data to a number of countries. These cables enable users to effectively communicate around the globe via emails, creating webpage, and video calls. Such unique technical progression in this millennium is also enticing to cyber criminals. They keep a wicked eye on excellent technology to crash the system to chase their sinful intention. Subsea infrastructure such as power cables and optic data cables transmit almost all intercontinental internet streams of traffic.  



As massive amounts of data pass through optic cables therefore subsea cable infrastructure is at heightened risk of cyber-attack. Cyber attackers thwart the submarine cables through wiretapping, DDoS attacks, and data interception. The major responsibility of intercontinental authorities is to shield the cyber infrastructure of the submarine arena for efficient functioning of sensitive departments such as militaries, governments, research, and financial institutions. Several times we hear news flashing about hacking of the internet system of a towering business organization or data intercepted from government websites. These are the smart brain games of cyber intruders.



Basically, cyber crooks become more energetic when novel technology is innovated to strengthen the global landscape. Cyber-attacks are bolstered with the intelligent tricks of cyber crooks. These tactics can be failed through wrapping the submarine cables with strong cable designs, positioning the cables at deep sea bed and installing unbeaten monitoring systems. Perfect routing in risky zones may significantly lessen the graph of cyber-attack and alleviate probable cyber danger.

Further proposal by writer:

Cyber security must be a major concern for intercontinental actors. It is a proposal to technical giants that as heavy internet traffic run through submarine optic cables then water skylines must be specified and installed with hidden sensors for any intruding activity of cyber attackers, or physical interruptions like shark hit.

Bottomline:

Submarine cables are strong strands for global internet connectivity to transmit massive data all over the world. Optic cables are enablers of global connectivity and facilitate users to interact smoothly without physical presence. Though the complex web of submarine cable network is fully protected, and has strong inherent security measures there is always scope to counter smart cyber fraudsters who can break the security to intercept sensitive data.

Heartbreaking Departure

Horrible experience of attending a niece's wedding . Though my relations with my brother’s wife were soaring but still I jumped with joy after getting a marriage invitation from my niece (my elder brother’s daughter). We all were very excited to attend my niece's wedding. I enthusiastically planned the rituals to be performed on the marriage occasion. In our culture, to wear traditional attire is normally appreciated in attending holy prayer and religious ceremonies.

Changeover from traditional thoughts to humanity is a positive move to transform the life of burn victims

Incidents of accidental burns are a rising trend in many countries. Burn victims desperately need physical and psychological shielding to revive from traumatic situations. We normally hear cases of burn patients due to unintentional, happenings or some calamitous situations. Patients suffer extreme agony without any fault. Burn survivors face considerable discrimination in society because drastic changes occur in their appearance. Ugly look of burn victims may be stigmatized which is the leading cause of exacerbating an array of psychological and emotional syndromes.
