🛡 What trends dominated the #digital world in 2022? IST's Zoë Brammer and @silas name their top 3:
1. #Cyber threats are multiplying, drawing increasing attention from professionals across multiple economic sectors.
2. Assumptions about the benefits of technology-driven #transparency seem increasingly tenuous.
3. A growing consensus about the range of cyber threats is breathing new life into efforts at cyber #capacitybuilding.

In our latest blog, they tackle the top cyber developments of 2022 and take a look ahead at what's next for IST in 2023.

The "contours" of the emerging #digitalage point to the ubiquity and importance of #data, both as an #asset for #capacitybuilding and a #resource for #revenuegeneration.

As #mukeshambani says, #dataisthenewoil, sparking a #battleroyale over its #flows, and #control.

He should know, having pioneered the #lowcost #data #revolution in #india with the #jio offerings, making us a #nation with the #world's cheapest #datastory.

I explain here https://rammohansusarla.in/2021/12/06/with-data-being-the-new-oil-the-emerging-digital-age-would-spur-battles-over-data-as-the-new-frontier-for-businesses/ on the #future #wars

It's Friday and the start of a #NFL playoff game weekend. Great if you're a sports fan, which I am.

However, I'll also be looking for people talking about #NationalMentoringMonth and ways to make well-organized, mentor-rich programs available to more kids in high poverty areas. Finding new ways to fund #nonprofit operations is one of the challenges.

I have been writing about this on http://tutormentor.blogspot.com since 2005. #tutormentor #CapacityBuilding #philanthropy

Looking forward to being a panellist at this public event tonight.

I must admit to being bewildered with the hysteric irrationality, by some, regarding transparent political discourse about the material well being of this place & the quality of life for its population.

One thing my life has taught me is that change is inevitable, growth is optional but progress is impossible without both.

#Thread on #selfworth & making a difference: Woke up with the firm realization that I am worthless, living a meaningless life. I used to think that had contributed to society bc I co-founded a "#npo" that collected educational supplies for ethnic #Myanmar refugee camps, but that was some time ago now & I haven't done anything as meaningful since. For years I would give what extra money I had to various #charities, like #refugee assistance, mosquito nets in #Africa, #capacitybuilding, etc, 1/
