Desenvolvimento de um quadro situacional para a cibersegurança em Portugal

Hoje em dia, as ameaças são cada vez mais frequentes e sofisticadas, do que alguma vez registado. Todo o tipo de empresas/organizações e informação estão sujeitas a estas ameaças. Estes ataques são cada vez mais recorrentes, deixando para trás um rasto de várias quebras de segurança. Existem uma serie de ciberataques que já deixaram a sua marca na historia. Uma das mais notórias, foi o caso da Estónia em 2007, por um grupo pro-kremlin de Transnístria em que vários servidores governamentais, fornecedores de serviço, servidores da banca, entre outros foram alvo de uma serie de ataques, na sua maioria de DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service1),e botnets2. O seu método era tao complicado que o governo da Estónia achava que estavam a ser apoiados pelo governo russo. Isto resultou na paragem de um país ate que o problema fosse normalizado. Considerado um ato de hacktivismo3 pelo que representava algo muito importante para a população russa, um ícone, “the Bronze Soldier of Tallinn”, um elaborado cemitério da altura soviética que o governo da Estónia queria recolocar. Hoje em dia, não só enfrentamos adversários mais sofisticados, como a informação que valorizam é cada vez mais alargada. Estes grupos conseguem fazer coisas inimagináveis com os bits4 mais aparentemente inócuos de informações recolhidas. Como tal, é preciso tomar medidas para garantir a segurança dos cidadãos quando navegam no ciberespaço, no qual as fronteiras são desconhecidas, onde a regulação é insuficiente e a segurança é ainda muito precoce. No plano nacional pode-se afirmar que Portugal possui as capacidades necessárias à proteção do seu ciberespaço. Com a criação do Centro Nacional de Cibersegurança (CNCS), Portugal atingiu um dos objetivos principais da sua estratégia nacional de cibersegurança, em assegurar um ciberespaço livre e seguro e em implementar as medidas e instrumentos necessários à antecipação, deteção, reação e recuperação de situações que, face à iminência ou ocorrência de incidentes ou ciberataques, ponham em causa o funcionamento dos organismos do estado, das infraestruturas críticas e dos interesses nacionais. Partindo de uma analise à estrutura organizacional da cibersegurança em Portugal este trabalho pretende dar um contributo para o que se considera ser uma necessidade, o desenvolvimento de um quadro situacional para a cibersegurança com o objetivo de melhorar o nível de awareness nacional contribuindo assim para o desenvolvimento do modelo de maturidade do CNCS relativamente á prevenção e deteção de incidentes no ciberespaço nacional. Neste sentido foram formulados um conjunto de estudos com o objetivo de dar a entender ao leitor toda a estrutura de um centro de cibersegurança na qual se destaca a proposta de desenvolvimento de um quadro situacional para a cibersegurança em Portugal.

Cláusulas de garantia e segurança

Contractual provisions directed towards the fulfillment of the contract itself or concerning the promisor’s conduct are nowadays widespread (both geographically and regarding the situations in which they are used), posing interpretative problems that demand the consideration of private autonomy’s extent and its limits on their application. A number of such clauses or covenants proliferate on all sectors of juridical activity, although with different configurations in each particular situation, whereby the study of negative pledge, pari passu, cross-default and ownership clauses merely constitutes a conceptual framework for considerations concerning the virtues and challenges of this type of contractual arrangements, particularly in relation to the precepts of the legal system as a whole. This study also aims to display the special characteristics that justify their prevalence in banking and financial law. We intend to analyze their, mostly preventive, function, typifying the main problems that arise, as well as their limitations and advantages.

Portugal no conselho de segurança das Nações Unidas

The United Nations is an international organization that was created after World War II, whose main objective is to promote cooperation, social and economic development, as well as to ensure international peace and security. The Member States are key actors in the international political system. For that reason they have strategic interests in what regards taking part in the international organizations. They see it as an opportunity to achieve those goals. The United Nations Security Council has a very important role in preserving international peace and security. It is the organ of the United Nations in which fifteen member states are represented: five permanently and ten non-permanently, being that the latter are elected for two years. Participating in the Security Council is a unique opportunity for middle powers like Portugal to promote their national interests and to increase their international visibility. In addition, they can contribute to the world’s destiny during their mandate period. Portugal has exercised his third term as a non-permanent member of the Security Council in 2011-2012 biennium, defeating Canada after a successful campaign carried out by the Portuguese diplomacy. This study analyses the participation of Portugal in the Security Council´s 2011-2012 biennium. It will focus the application process and election and the role of Portugal in the Security Council, especially in its the presidency and its intervention in the presidency of the Sanctions Committee on Libya. Its aim is to show the impact of Portuguese participation in the Security Council for international peace and security, as well as the geopolitical importance for the country of being part of the Security Council.

Segurança e criminalidade organizada

Globalization brought some deep changes to the world (dis)order. Nowadays, more than in other moment in history, we are closer to the ones physically far, living in “global village” called by Marshall McLuhan (1962). The concepts and premises built in this new order, have totally broken with the ones that “came out from Westphalia”, which had last to the end of the cold war, like, for example, the concept of security. Since then, security has been facing one of its biggest transformations ever, completely disrupting the state border based idea and starting to be extended to other domains, as human, economic, environmental and IT security, among others. In this global and interdependent environment, “new” threats and risks have raised, which are demanding a comprehensive approach from the States, international organizations and other actors, to allow the analysis and understanding its impacts on the various society sectors and orders. Inside the enormous challenges to the global security, it is important to regard the organized crime, which covers, by itself, a set of threats and risks, enhanced by its connection to other types of criminality, such as terrorism. The goals pursued and the tactics used by criminal organizations during the perpetration of illegal activities, specially the drug smuggling, have impact in an wide spectrum of the social, economic financial and politic dimensions, which should not be underestimated, otherwise our own security may be compromised. Therefore, the current investigation intends to be an important catalyst to the idea debate inside security scope, through the analysis of the organized crime and the drug smuggling, adding to a discussion of this issue, which should be deeper and holistic, aiming a better understanding of the challenges provided by our society.

A liberalização do mercado energético e o papel das entidades reguladoras

The liberalisation of the energy market goes back to the 1990s, when it was impelled by the European legislator. Since then, three legislative packages, temporarily successive, were approved. Those packages contained the measures to be implemented in order to deepen the internal energy market. Besides the opening up of several national markets to competition, the European legislator aimed the creation of a real internal energy market within the European Union. The unbundling regime was one of the most important steps with respect to the liberalisation process. The introduction of these rules ensured independence to the various market operators. A real and effective right of choice was granted to the consumers so they may choose their electricity and natural gas supplier. Therefore, the activity of comercialisation is subject to competition. However, some activities of the electricity’s and natural gas’ chain of value, namely the activities of transportation and distribution, were kept under regulation rules. Even though it may seem odd, the assignment of important competences and strong powers to a regulatory authority was essential in order to achieve the liberalisation process’ goals. Electricity and natural gas are essential public goods; therefore the market operators are legally bound to public service obligations, such as the security, the universality and the continuity of the supply. The performance of these obligations may become, in some cases, unprofitable for those operators. For such reason, the protection of the consumers’ rights shall only be properly defended if there is a regulatory authority that monitors the behaviour of the operators and sanctions the failure to comply with the public service obligations. Portugal, as a Member State of the European Union, transposed into the national legal order the European directives concerning the liberalisation process. This transposition has caused radical changes to the electricity and natural gas’ national markets. The Entidade Reguladora dos Serviços Energéticos also suffered various mutations in order to keep up with the regulatory demands regarding the liberalisation process.

Panel de expertos informe sobre los efectos económicos de diferentes medidas regulatorias dela pesquería de la anchoveta peruana

Presenta las regulaciones de la pesquería de la anchoveta para asegurar el mantenimiento de las capturas al/o cerca del nivel del rendimiento máximo sostenido y obtener la captura a un costo mínimo y utilizarla para obtener la máxima ganancia dentro de la estructura social, política y técnico económica de la industria.

Segundo panel de expertos:informe sobre los efectos económicos de diferentes medidas regulatorias de la pesquería de la Anchoveta peruana

En el informe de su cuarta reunión el Panel de Expertos en Dinámica revisó los datos proporcionados por el Instituto del Mar del Perú sobre el presente estado del stock de la anchoveta. Estos datos mostraron, evidentemente, que el stock de ancho veta se encontraba en una crítica situación a comienzos de 1973. Los mejores cálculos indicaban que la mayor captura que podría obtenerse en 1973 sería alrededor de a millones de toneladas pero que sería conveniente mantencrla muy por debajo de este nivel, especialmente antes de la mayor temporada de desove en Agosto-Setiembre. En 1974 el reclutamiento podía ser muy bajo especialmente si el stock desovante seguía siendo agotado por la pesca, de modo que las capturas en 1974 podrían ser mucho más bajas del promedio aún en el caso de que no hubiera restricciones para la pesca.
