The month of October is associated with a variety of themes, but it also ushers in the start of autumn and pumpkin-spiced lattes and culminates with one of the scariest days of the year – Halloween. However, beyond the uptick in Starbucks stock prices and the sale of costumes, October is marked as Cybersecurity Awareness Month in the United States and European Cybersecurity Month on “the old continent”.

While the average person may think that they have a fairly decent grasp on cybersecurity with properly developed habits and impeccable cyber-hygiene practices, the reality is that we don’t have to look far for proof of the opposite – the annual roundups of most common passwords paint a rather ghastly picture; just take a look at the worst passwords of 2020, for example.

The report, compiled from the analysis of data from Cisco Umbrella, found that the biggest threats faced by various industries such as Manufacturing, Healthcare, Technology, Finance, Higher Education and Management in 2020 are phishing, trojan horse attacks, cryptocurrency mining and ransomware.

Taking advantage of the disruptions created by the COVID-19 pandemic, cybercriminals are targeting companies and organizations in different industries with increasingly sophisticated malware attacks. Some of these are based on deceiving the user, while others steal important information by installing malicious programs on computers.

Wind and solar power have gotten so cheap that other forms of renewable energy have been relegated to science labs and the dustbins of history.

As wind turbines and solar farms sprout around the world, investments in other technologies that produce power — from waves, geothermal steam pockets, rivers, biomass and more — have dropped off a cliff. Even those gleaming mirrors in the desert that focus sunshine onto thermal generators can’t compete on price with photovoltaic panels, and they probably never will.

Some of the world’s biggest fossil-fuel producers are calling on taxpayers to help them kick their pollution habit.

The world’s biggest oil, natural gas and mining companies are stepping up their campaign to deploy carbon capture and storage, or CCS, as way to slow global warming. But with a potential $90-billion-a-year price tag, it’s too rich for them to do it on their own.

The technology siphons pollution away from the chimneys of industrial plants and injects it permanently underground.

SAUDI ARABIA’s adoption of the Vision 2030 strategy, whose goal is to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, was one of the boldest attempts by any Middle East nation to move towards a low-carbon economy, and, with its ambitious plans to build nearly 20 GWe of nuclear capacities in the coming decades. It is clear that nuclear power is to be a major part of bringing Vision 2030 to life.
