Cybersecurity Improvements
With all the technological advancements, it is important for there to good
internet and computer security, especially in government. There has been a bill
passed in congress that aims to improve the security of the internet
infrastructure of the States. It is an important bill that was passed because it
reaches more people than the current laws about security in place. Since more
people are using the internet and internet phones, there are more chances of breaches to security. The text of the
legislation has not yet been released, but the Los Angeles Times reports that it
would require power-grid companies and other infrastructure utilities to
disclose their information security procedures, and also provide legal immunity
to all companies that inform the government of network intrusions and other
threats. Do you think that these new laws are for the better or worse?
Be Kind
It has certainly been a while since I have written or went on a rant but I am definitely back. So here goes. We have all heard that kindness can go a long way but I do not think that we ever realized just how much of an impact it can have on our health. Of course, it is always a good idea to draw the distinction between being kind and not giving people enough direction. When it comes to web development, there is a lot of creativity that goes into the site but there also has to be a certain format. Though kindness and compassion can be applied almost everywhere. It can even help your physical health. There was a study done that pointed to the vagus nerve that was stimulated when people were kind but as with any study, more research needs to be done. Being a good friend, and being compassionate toward others, may be one of the best ways to improve your own health.
