Una gran cantidad de tecnologías emergentes está dando forma a nuestras vidas, posiblemente a un ritmo de cambio nunca antes visto en la historia. Habilitado por el poder de cómputo barato y el acceso a grandes conjuntos de datos, las máquinas ya están haciendo un mejor trabajo que los humanos en varias áreas. Esta "inteligencia" se está alejando de las granjas de servidores centrales hacia dispositivos y cosas que pronto se convertirán en parte de nuestra vida cotidiana. Estos dispositivos potencialmente negociarán su propio camino en nuestro mundo a través de "contratos inteligentes" y sin una intervención humana significativa. La información perceptiva superpuesta sobre estos objetos del mundo real nos ayudará a salir de los dispositivos móviles que han captado nuestra atención en este mundo posterior a Internet. Lo que parece único en este momento actual es la rápida adopción de muchas de estas tecnologías habilitadoras y su potencial para trabajar juntos para cambiar nuestras vidas.
This study examined the impact of information and communication technologies (ICT) on the financial services sector. The researcher conducted primary and secondary research, including a questionnaire. The study found that ICT has significantly impacted the sector through technologies like mobile banking, mobile pay, and blockchain. However, cybersecurity issues and low internet accessibility were major challenges reported. Respondents were also less aware of automated wealth managers and data processing. Overall, the study concluded that ICT has greatly influenced financial services, but authorities must address security problems and increase awareness of certain technologies.
Attaining IoT Value: How To Move from Connecting Things to Capturing InsightsSustainable Brands
Cisco estimates that the Internet of Everything (IoE) — the networked connection of people, process, data, and things — will generate $19 trillion in Value at Stake for the private and public sectors combined between 2013 and 2022. More than 42 percent of this value — $8 trillion — will come from one of IoE’s chief enablers, the Internet of Things (IoT). Defined by Cisco as “the intelligent connectivity of physical devices, driving massive gains in efficiency, business growth, and quality of life,” IoT often represents the quickest path to IoE value for private and public sector organizations.
This paper combines original and secondary research, as well as economic analysis, to provide a roadmap for maximizing value from IoT investments. It also explains why, in the worlds of IoT and IoE, the combination of edge computing/analytics and data center/cloud is essential to driving actionable insights that produce improved business outcomes.
The World Economic Forum has recently launched The Global Information Technology Report 2013.
In this presentation we have tried to put some important find outs from the same report and few other news and information from global media.

Cloud services, big data analytics and the Internet of Things can transform the public sector. While the opportunities appear to be innumerable, restricted primarily by finite budgets, barriers to adoption commonly emerge in three areas: quality of infrastructure, legal framework and skills. Comprehensive coverage and bandwidth are important infrastructure requirements but cost of access can impede take-up, a problem which countries can potentially manage by reducing entry barriers in their telecommunications sector. Facilitating adoption requires clear rules relating to data collection, storage, sharing, privacy and security.

2018 Cross-Border Data Flows: A Review of the Regulatory Enablers, Blockers, ...accacloud
Access to data represents a huge potential in terms of potential economic growth and social enablement opportunities. It is not surprising then, that many governments are setting forth ‘digital economy’ agendas, including policy and regulatory frameworks, to ensure they maximize participation and opportunity. However, such a cross-cutting agenda is not without its challenges. Regulations put in place to enable or protect one part of the economy can damage growth in neighboring sectors or industries, often unintentionally. This research report takes an investigative look at the way five Asian economies—India, Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines, and Vietnam—are aggressively transitioning to more digitally enabled economies.

SMEs in Asia Pacific: The Market for Cloud Computing - Case Studies of 14 mar...accacloud
Small and medium-sized enterprises represent well over 90% of all businesses in Asia, and across the 14 markets under review they employ some 1.02 billion people and contribute around $10.9 trillion directly into the economies in which are based (49.1% of total GDP for the region.) They also spend significantly as a group on ICT.
Cloud computing – and cloud computing technology – has the potential to be the ‘great leveller’ for both SMEs and developing economies. This is because cloud offers the prospect of both the access to enterprise grade tools on a pay-per-use basis making them immediately accessible and affordable, and the ability to scale up and down such access as required (elasticity of use). In other words, upfront capex requirements go down substantially.
What are their challenges to using cloud? How can this technology be made more available to SMEs, so that they can harness its power for digital transformation? This report reviews 14 markets' SME industry, and establishes market size, characteristics, and identifies industries most likely to undergo digital transformation.

REPORT ON CONTRIBUTION OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY IN THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPEMENT...Tanzila Islam
This document provides an overview of the contribution of information technology to economic development in Bangladesh. It discusses the current IT system and infrastructure in Bangladesh, including internet service providers, the proposed IT village project, and the IT field. It also outlines the government's efforts to promote the IT sector, such as providing loans to entrepreneurs and developing the IT workforce. The document analyzes how IT is used in various industries and its overall positive impact on the economy.
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an integral part of business management now-a-day. It is inevitable for the smooth running of business irrespective of size and complexity. Due to the rapid development of ICT and its huge use in all spheres of our lives, businesses are also substantially influenced by it. Now, the resources of the businesses are primarily managed by using ICT supports that helps perform tasks faster and more accurate than before. But the developing countries are still struggling to introduce ICT supports in all areas of business management processes as the effort is substantially hindered by a strong but ineffective work culture. Therefore, to use ICT in business management we need to know the issues and challenges of it.
Information and communication technology (ICT) brings numerous benefits to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) by helping tasks be performed faster and more accurately. However, SMEs in developing countries face challenges in fully utilizing ICT due to issues like a lack of necessary internal skills, high costs of implementation, and insufficient telecommunication infrastructure and access to relevant ICT advice. Addressing these challenges by improving ICT education and infrastructure would help SMEs better integrate ICT into management and gain greater efficiencies.
The document discusses the future of technology and the fourth industrial revolution. It notes that the physical, digital, and biological spheres are converging. It provides examples of projects at the CSIR related to photonics, additive manufacturing, and a product lifecycle management platform. It also discusses the ICT RDI roadmap and capacity building programs in data science and for mobile startups. The document outlines industries impacted by the fourth industrial revolution and skills in high demand. It concludes that South Africa must embrace digital trends to remain competitive globally and that strategic investments in research are needed to support industry and job growth.

It also outlines the government's efforts to promote the IT sector, such as providing loans to entrepreneurs and developing the IT workforce. The document analyzes how IT is used in various industries and its overall positive impact on the economy.
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an integral part of business management now-a-day. It is inevitable for the smooth running of business irrespective of size and complexity. Due to the rapid development of ICT and its huge use in all spheres of our lives, businesses are also substantially influenced by it. Now, the resources of the businesses are primarily managed by using ICT supports that helps perform tasks faster and more accurate than before. But the developing countries are still struggling to introduce ICT supports in all areas of business management processes as the effort is substantially hindered by a strong but ineffective work culture. Therefore, to use ICT in business management we need to know the issues and challenges of it.
Information and communication technology (ICT) brings numerous benefits to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) by helping tasks be performed faster and more accurately. However, SMEs in developing countries face challenges in fully utilizing ICT due to issues like a lack of necessary internal skills, high costs of implementation, and insufficient telecommunication infrastructure and access to relevant ICT advice. Addressing these challenges by improving ICT education and infrastructure would help SMEs better integrate ICT into management and gain greater efficiencies.

This time, we're diving into the murky waters of the Fuxnet malware, a brainchild of the illustrious Blackjack hacking group.
Let's set the scene: Moscow, a city unsuspectingly going about its business, unaware that it's about to be the star of Blackjack's latest production. The method? Oh, nothing too fancy, just the classic "let's potentially disable sensor-gateways" move.
In a move of unparalleled transparency, Blackjack decides to broadcast their cyber conquests on ruexfil.com. Because nothing screams "covert operation" like a public display of your hacking prowess, complete with screenshots for the visually inclined.
Ah, but here's where the plot thickens: the initial claim of 2,659 sensor-gateways laid to waste? A slight exaggeration, it seems. The actual tally? A little over 500. It's akin to declaring world domination and then barely managing to annex your backyard.
For Blackjack, ever the dramatists, hint at a sequel, suggesting the JSON files were merely a teaser of the chaos yet to come. Because what's a cyberattack without a hint of sequel bait, teasing audiences with the promise of more digital destruction?
-------
This document presents a comprehensive analysis of the Fuxnet malware, attributed to the Blackjack hacking group, which has reportedly targeted infrastructure. The analysis delves into various aspects of the malware, including its technical specifications, impact on systems, defense mechanisms, propagation methods, targets, and the motivations behind its deployment. By examining these facets, the document aims to provide a detailed overview of Fuxnet's capabilities and its implications for cybersecurity.
The document offers a qualitative summary of the Fuxnet malware, based on the information publicly shared by the attackers and analyzed by cybersecurity experts. This analysis is invaluable for security professionals, IT specialists, and stakeholders in various industries, as it not only sheds light on the technical intricacies of a sophisticated cyber threat but also emphasizes the importance of robust cybersecurity measures in safeguarding critical infrastructure against emerging threats. Through this detailed examination, the document contributes to the broader understanding of cyber warfare tactics and enhances the preparedness of organizations to defend against similar attacks in the future.

4. #1 ICT Infrastructure Gap
Overall access to computers and internet connections remains low at 20% and 21% respectively.*
Fixed broadband connections accounted for just 2.2% of total internet usage in light of relatively poor
broadband internet infrastructure.** Connectivity Index is low at the category of starters, with 4G
coverage under 10%, International bandwidth less than 100 kbps, and download speeds don’t reach
10 Mbps.*** Palapa Ring project is promising to wire eastern part of Indonesia, yet much need to be
done to go to the last mile.

*** Huawei’s Global Connectivity Index
Loss of Opportunities
Implications
Commercial business, public services, and government administration are at relatively modest to slow
speed in embracing digital transformation to achieve optimum business efficiency. Branch offices and
transaction points outside Java and Sumatra, not to mention remote places and offshore operations,
face a high cost of doing business to overcome reliability, relatively costly of connectivity, and a reality
check for maximum commercial expansion.
New business investments to potential growth areas and digital commerce, especially outside Java
(and Sumatra), could be at a slower rate than they should be. A large number of SMB (small, medium
business) spreading across the archipelago could not optimally reap the digital dividend to grow the
business and expand the market that would induce local economic activities.
5. #2 Data Residency
Physical location(s) of business entities’ data is bound to the regulations of the country where they
operate. It relates to data sovereignty that a country need to have access assurance and exercise
some controls as required. PP 82/2012 mandates data center(s) to be in country, and PP 35/2004
regulates oil and gas data shall also reside in country. Cloud technology, offering cost efficiency and
reduced complexity, is in contrast to the regulations. Likewise, data transfer across country boundaries
is happening at high speed as part of business necessity in email and various information exchanges.
Loss of Opportunities
Implications
Data residency laws have a huge impact on existing and future users of cloud and other hosted
technologies, losing the opportunity to enjoy an efficient cost of operations By dictating where
certain data is to be held and processed, the requirements fundamentally counteract many of the
benefits of cloud technologies which inherently involve the sharing, processing and centralizing of
data across borders. Building infrastructure and deploying applications on their owns take much
longer time and costly as compared to utilizing the cloud. In-country clouds might not exist and are
yet to mature to have a complete offering.
Data Residency consequently mandates business entities to store all data, and to some degrees to
have data centers, in the country. To some companies, it incurs an additional high cost burden to
build their data centers as opposed to using the existing ones at their centers or head quarters outside
the country. It also limits or hinder the free and fast exchange and flow of information that could be
critical to sustain the business.
6. #3 Data Privacy
Implications
The advance of digital technology entails a collection and dissemination of data at large volumes and
at high speed. It includes data that describes details about individuals and personal related
information. Data Privacy addresses this relationship and determines what data in a computer system
can be shared with third parties. Awareness of data privacy in the society at large and service
providers are relatively significantly low. It is becoming great concerns as data, especially personal
related ones, is floating around without prior consent or authorized to do so,. This is used for
commercial purposes and has potentials for abuse leading to further cyber security aspects. There are
also concerns for having the right to be forgotten to remove one’s digital footprint when not required.
Without respect and legal enforcement on data privacy, trust would be low for people conducting
commercial digital transactions. Potentials for misuse are high, leading eventually to disputes and
probable legal lawsuit. Compounded to a large volume of data, it could slow down the rise of digital
businesses to drive economic growth.
Loss of Opportunities
Business and moreover e-commerce transactions are proceeding with trust and underlying legal
basis to thrive and grow. With lack of clear regulation and low respect on data privacy, there could
be a reduction in potential investments coming in to the country.
7. #4 Standard Information Exchange
Loss of Opportunities
Implications
Within particular industries (eg. insurance, health care, financial services), there are clear necessities
for information exchanges with growing volumes of transactions. It has been creating costly
administrative burden. Information exchanges for cross industries, including involving consumers and
public, are not efficient. For start-ups and new businesses, it could become a kind of another entry
barrier.
The electronic exchange of transaction documents has had a significant impact on business
practices, particularly in the sales and purchase/merchandising functions of organizations. it
brings in many benefits to the organization such as reduced costs, faster turnaround. better
customer service, and in some firms strategic advantage over their competitors. As Indonesian
economy is growing expansively and digitally, there are surging needs for a sort of standard
information exchange to ease and smooth out e-commerce, digital transaction, and overall public
services. It encompasses technical standards at the low level to the business application layer for
automated information sharing.
The absence of information exchange framework would make business transactions harder and
collaborative environment not well-established. It could be either business-to-business, general
public services, or consumers to service providers. It turns out to be quite costly for participating
domains and parties to interact and transact under various formats and multiple platforms of
information exchanges.
8. #5 Talent Gap
Implications
By 2030 Indonesia is expected be the world’s seventh-largest economy, according to the McKinsey
Global Institute. Its huge source of youthful human capital has the potential to be one of the country’s
most powerful economic levers. In 2012 almost 47% of the Indonesian workforce was categorized as
low-skilled labor, according to World Bank data.* As the Indonesian economy returns to higher
growth and intends unto becoming a digitally empowered nation, there are potential of skills
mismatches. Growth areas to support higher productivity and long-term ability to innovate are in-
depth technical programming-developments, executive e-leadership, digital marketers, and big data
analytics. The widest gaps across professional profiles are for English and computer skills.**
Technopreneurs, digital start-up, technology-driven companies, and big firms undergoing digital
transformation would be relatively slower than expected, on the rise and growth when face with
required skills shortage. All is expected to fuel digital economy and drive significant growth. On the
other hand, as Indonesia enters ASEAN Economic Community, there would be skilled labor in-flow
from ASEAN countries, potentially displacing Indonesian workforce that could create social tensions.
Loss of Opportunities
Without a re-skill on digital space, workforce participation to join the growing digital economy is
less, burdening unemployment rate due to skill mismatch. On the other hand, out-flow of highly
