greater-efforts-urged-on-sci-tech-cooperation

BEIJING, April 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from China Daily:

Greater efforts are needed to strengthen international cooperation in science and technology, explore ways of jointly solving important global issues through technological innovation, and develop new quality productive forces, said officials, experts and company executives on Thursday in Beijing.
Addressing the opening ceremony of the 2024 Zhongguancun Forum, Vice-Premier Ding Xue­xiang said China is willing to work with the international community to practice the concept of open, fair, just and nondiscriminatory international sci-tech cooperation, and to jointly build a global sci-tech community.
The country will explore a new model regarding mutually beneficial global cooperation in sci-tech innovation, and will break down barriers restricting the flow of knowledge, technology, talent and other innovative factors, to jointly create an open innovation ecosystem.
Yin Li, secretary of the Communist Party of China Beijing Municipal Committee, said the capital will ramp up efforts to improve its innovation capacities, accelerate the building of world-leading science and technology parks, increase investment in basic research and make breakthroughs in core technologies in key fields.
Data from the Ministry of Science and Technology showed that China’s research and development investment exceeded 3.3 trillion yuan ($455.4 billion) in 2023, up 8.1 percent year-on-year, and the spending on fundamental research reached 221.2 billion yuan, an increase of 9.3 percent over the previous year.
China’s strength in scientific and technological innovation has taken a major leap in recent years. Marco Aleman, assistant director-general of the World Intellectual Property Organization, said China is a powerhouse of innovation that contributes to global growth and sustainable development.
According to WIPO, the country stands as a global innovation leader, ranking 12th in the Global Innovation Index 2023, and it owned 24 of the top 100 science and technology clusters globally by the end of last year, ranking first in the world for the first time.
Quarraisha Abdool Karim, president of the World Academy of Sciences, said ensuring a sustainable future through partnership and cooperation creates an opportunity for all participants to explore new pathways toward achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
Lei Jun, founder and CEO of Chinese tech company Xiaomi Corp, said the company will continue to step up investment in R&D and strive for breakthroughs in core technologies.

Web O.No: Metaverse and Web 3.0 stunted by internet chaos, warn 87% of business leaders

Published

web-ono:-metaverse-and-web-3.0-stunted-by-internet-chaos,-warn-87%-of-business-leaders

Forrit report uncovers the internet is at breaking point, thanks to open source vulnerabilities, siloed web management systems, and poor website governance.
LONDON, April 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — A new study launched by Forrit, the next-generation, global content management system (CMS) provider, reveals that 89% of senior marketers and tech leaders are optimistic that Web 3.0 and the metaverse have the potential to revolutionise the way we interact with the web. However, the report, titled Web O.No: your business’ bleak online future and how to avoid it uncovered that 87% believe the current state of the internet will stunt these innovations – and none of the respondents have websites that are currently equipped for this transformative new internet era.

As we near the 31st anniversary of the World Wide Web’s entry into the public domain, UK business decision-makers unanimously agreed that “the Internet today is a mess,” citing security flaws, vulnerabilities with open source web management systems, ungoverned websites, and multiple layers of legacy CMS systems.
Despite the report focusing on heavily regulated industries, financial services, utilities, and the legal sector, over half of the respondents (57%) revealed they have website security flaws. They also admitted customers would lose trust if they were exposed. Security vulnerabilities were most prevalent among those who run their websites on open source solutions, rising to 79% in this group. Expert respondents underscored the specific risk of open source plug-ins. Created by multiple third-party developers, they leave websites open to malicious compromise.
Beyond cyber-attacks, the report highlights the heightened risk of outages, dysfunctional interfaces, and hazardous content hidden within neglected pages of reputable websites. The latter is a risk for those operating multiple website management (CMS) systems – a common practice among the participants. Shockingly 44% admitted they don’t have control of the website content as a direct result of this practice.
With the internet spiralling out of control, Forrit labels this chaotic online future Web O.No.
Peter Proud, CEO and Founder, Forrit, explains the role of composable CMS platforms in putting the brakes on this doomsday scenario, “Forget Web 3.0, we’re heading towards Web O.No – a grim reality of an internet unfit for purpose unless we act now. It’s time to stop layering on outdated, vulnerable web management systems, which exacerbate the problem. Embracing a next-generation composable web management platform would introduce a new era of security, flexibility, and scalability for the internet, empowering businesses to embrace the future.”
The respondents reinforced this sentiment, with 89% asserting that composable architecture would empower their organisation to future-proof their digital infrastructure. This includes granting them the flexibility to adopt AI into the website—a capability that is inhibited by their current web management system, according to 72% of respondents.
Gary Roberts, CRO, Forrit, underscores this significance: “Your website management platform (CMS) should be an enabler of digital innovation, not a barrier. Embracing composable web architecture removes the current barriers, providing a clear pathway to the future – whether that’s the metaverse, Web 3.0, or any other pioneering tech advancement as yet undiscovered.”

“Navigating Global Identity Governance With Key Strategies for Digital Security and Compliance”
Identity governance and administration (IGA) has emerged as a critical policy-driven approach aimed at fortifying digital identities within organizations, ensuring that proper access is provided to the right individuals for valid reasons. Across the globe, the demand for IGA solutions is on the rise, driven by the need to tackle sophisticated cyber threats, comply with stringent data protection laws, and adapt to the digitization wave sweeping through industries. Challenges include integrating these solutions with pre-existing IT frameworks, primarily in organizations reliant on legacy systems. The North American market, led by the United States and Canada, is at the forefront of this expansion, embracing technological advancements and stringent regulatory standards. Meanwhile, the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region is navigating its unique landscape, with the EU focusing heavily on compliance through GDPR and the Middle East and Africa gradually recognizing the value of digital security. The Asia-Pacific region is witnessing a significant uptrend in IGA solutions adoption, spurred by digital transformation initiatives and cybersecurity awareness, with China and India playing pivotal roles.

“Navigating the New Normal With The Crucial Role of Identity Governance in Securing Hybrid Work Environments”
As businesses globally embrace the fusion of remote and traditional office work, the need for secure, hybrid workspaces becomes paramount. The shift toward flexible working models, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, highlights the importance of cybersecurity and accessibility in ensuring operational continuity and a better work-life balance. Identity governance & administration (IGA) systems emerge as essential tools within this evolving work landscape. They enable organizations to manage digital identities and access rights effectively, safeguarding sensitive data against unauthorized access across diverse working environments. By ensuring that only credentialed employees can access critical information, regardless of their physical location, IGA solutions stand at the forefront of maintaining cybersecurity compliance and operational integrity. This development signifies a growing demand for robust identity governance frameworks, ensuring businesses remain resilient and secure in remote work and beyond.

Managed and professional services provide organizations with the specialized expertise necessary for optimizing the performance and security of identity governance & administration (IGA) systems, eliminating the need for such in-depth knowledge internally. Businesses benefit from advanced skills that enhance system functionality and safeguard sensitive data by outsourcing specific IGA tasks. From the initial stages of integration and implementation, ensuring seamless incorporation with existing infrastructures, to ongoing support and maintenance for consistent system reliability and up-to-dateness, these services form the foundation of effective IGA strategies. Furthermore, training and consulting play a pivotal role, equipping companies with the understanding and capability to utilize their IGA systems to the fullest. IGA solution is a critical technological tool designed to streamline the management of user access rights across organizations, bolstering security, operational efficiency, and compliance with regulatory standards. This comprehensive approach to IGA facilitates a more secure, efficient, and compliant organizational environment, empowering businesses to focus on core objectives and ensure their data remains protected.
