What Attitude Changes Are Needed to Cause SMEs to Take a Strategic Approach to Information Security?
Resumo:
Spending on security in an SME usually has to compete with demands for hardware, infrastructure, and strategic applications. In this paper, the authors seek to explore the reasons why smaller SMEs in particular have consistently failed to see securing information as strategic year-on-year spending, and just regard as part of an overall tight IT budget. The authors scrutinise the typical SMEs reasoning for choosing to see non-spending on security as an acceptable strategic risk. They look particularly at possible reasons why SMEs tend not to take much notice of "scare stories" in the media based on research showing they are increasingly at risk, whilst larger businesses are taking greater precautions and become more difficult to penetrate. The results and their analysis provide useful pointers towards broader business environment changes that would cause SMEs to be more risk-averse and ethical in their approach to securing their own and their clients’ information.

The Birkbeck Freehold Land and Building Societies were launched in 1851 in the London Mechanics’ Institute, secured its survival, and eventually replaced its premises with the architectural ‘phantasmagoria’ of the Birkbeck Bank. Prior to its collapse in 1911 ‘the Birkbeck’ was a major element in the English property based financial system and contributed significantly to the suburban growth of London. The Institute, Societies and Bank shared a Utilitarian vision of social progress through self-help that was at times hotly contested by the radical champions of the social classes that they were initially formed to assist. Their parallel histories are attested today by ‘Birkbeck’ toponyms (including roads, pubs and a railway station) in the London landscape.

Este relatório foi realizado no âmbito da unidade curricular de DIPRE (Dissertação/Projecto/Estágio) lecionada no Mestrado em Engenharia Civil – Infraestruturas, no Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto. O estágio foi realizado na Divisão Municipal de Obras e Iluminação Pública, na Câmara Municipal do Porto. Neste relatório procurou-se descrever e caracterizar todos os tipos de pavimentos, desenvolver e estudar novas técnicas de orçamentação e planeamento, e ainda analisar vários casos para mostrar a validade do que se realizou. Este relatório inicia-se com uma primeira parte de âmbito teórico, em que se faz referência aos diferentes tipos de pavimentos, analisando-se o seu comportamento, execução, patologias e métodos de dimensionamento. Para além disso faz-se a interpretação do Decreto-Lei nº 163/2006 e das questões de mobilidade urbana. Para o estágio foram necessárias diversas ferramentas de trabalho, não só fornecidas pela Divisão Municipal de Obras e Iluminação Pública, mas também propostas e exploradas pelo aluno. Com estas ferramentas conseguiu-se desenvolver um novo método de orçamentação, estudando os Rendimentos dos operários para um maior rigor nas estimativas de custo efetuadas. As soluções que se apresentam para mostrar o trabalho desenvolvido foram escolhidas de acordo com a sua importância e abrangência para demonstrar tudo o que foi acompanhado e realizado durante o estágio. Começando pela Rua do Dr. Magalhães Lemos, que foi selecionada porque houve a oportunidade de acompanhar e fiscalizar uma obra que contempla a execução de dois pavimentos distintos, o pavimento flexível e o rígido, em Betão Armado Contínuo. Optou-se também por selecionar dois casos de melhoria da acessibilidade no centro da cidade, porque foram dois projetos desenvolvidos pelo aluno em que se conseguiu explorar as diferentes decisões que teve de se tomar. Por fim, apresenta-se o estudo do dimensionamento da Rua de Santo Ildefonso de acordo com as diretrizes da Câmara Municipal do Porto no percurso académico.

BACKGROUND: Invasive fungal diseases are important causes of morbidity and mortality. Clarity and uniformity in defining these infections are important factors in improving the quality of clinical studies. A standard set of definitions strengthens the consistency and reproducibility of such studies. METHODS: After the introduction of the original European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer/Invasive Fungal Infections Cooperative Group and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Mycoses Study Group (EORTC/MSG) Consensus Group definitions, advances in diagnostic technology and the recognition of areas in need of improvement led to a revision of this document. The revision process started with a meeting of participants in 2003, to decide on the process and to draft the proposal. This was followed by several rounds of consultation until a final draft was approved in 2005. This was made available for 6 months to allow public comment, and then the manuscript was prepared and approved. RESULTS: The revised definitions retain the original classifications of "proven," "probable," and "possible" invasive fungal disease, but the definition of "probable" has been expanded, whereas the scope of the category "possible" has been diminished. The category of proven invasive fungal disease can apply to any patient, regardless of whether the patient is immunocompromised, whereas the probable and possible categories are proposed for immunocompromised patients only. CONCLUSIONS: These revised definitions of invasive fungal disease are intended to advance clinical and epidemiological research and may serve as a useful model for defining other infections in high-risk patients.

Approximately 1 million people in the United States and over 30 million worldwide are living with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). While mortality from untreated infection approaches 100%, survival improves markedly with use of contemporary antiretroviral therapies (ART). In the United States, 25 drugs are approved for treating HIV-1, and increasing numbers are available in resource-limited countries. Safe and effective ART is a cornerstone in the global struggle against the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Variable responses to ART are due at least in part to human genetic variants that affect drug metabolism, drug disposition, and off-site drug targets. Defining effects of human genetic variants on HIV treatment toxicity, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics has far-reaching implications. In 2010, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases sponsored a workshop entitled, Pharmacogenomics A Path Towards Personalized HIV Care. This article summarizes workshop objectives, presentations, discussions, and recommendations derived from this meeting.
