This is an interesting question to ask ourselves; whether we are consumer of the technology market or technology vendors the impact of the new technologies (from cloud to IoT, from industry 4.0 to big data just to name the most acknowledged from a marketing point of view) privacy regulations can affect heavily our behaviours and the market. so let try to understand what could be the implications of this new focus on privacy and data protection. First of all we should try to understand what we are talking…

Managers and Leaders are not the same thing There is always a lot of talk about managers and leadership, but I sometimes have the feeling there is a little confusion on the subject. I can agree that a manager needs to have leadership qualities, as some other key soft skills, but leadership, per se, is not enough. Wait, this means that a great leader can’t be also a great manager? Exactly, a manager need leadership skills to be good, but this is only one of the several skills he need. He should be able to understand the job heshe is…

The IoT Files – Privacy

antonio.ierano@ierano.it 02/12/2016 AI Tech Update, Tech Update in English

In the previous post “The IoT Files – intro and security” I started to talk about Security issues related to the IoT world. Security imply a wide range of elements, one of them is Privacy. But since the nature of this topic is particularly sensitive I will talk about it separately. Privacy in the Internet of Things assume a different taste than we used to think. We should think again what IoT means. A lot of objects that are able to communicate and process data, equipped with sensors that make them aware of the neighborhood. Those sensors will be able to…

View image | gettyimages.com UE directive on Attack against information systems give us no more excuse to deal seriously, Under the new rules, illegal access, system interference or interception constitute criminal offence across the EU. But while the legislator is working to create tools to address cybercrime as a Whole system problem, that is affecting EU economy, what are enterprise doing on this side? The problem is that if enterprises does not align their cyber security defence to the correct approach every legislation will be useless, because the target will be always too easy.

Il prossimo avvocato che parla di privacy a sproposito lo mordo…

Ok l’argomento è ostico, lo so, e le leggi italiane che hanno a che fare sulla privacy sono tutto fuor che chiare e comprensibili. Scritte in un limbo che si trova tra il non capire l’argomento, non avere le corrette referenze tecniche informatiche, e una area nuova anche dal punto di vista della tecnica legale, soffrono di uni problema di diffusione, comprensione ed interpretazione. Ma a fronte di taluni esperti che sanno di che cosa si parla, spesso mi trovo di fronte ad imbarazzanti affermazione da parte di soggetti che la questione dovrebbero conoscerla almeno in maniera minima: avvocati e…

antonio.ierano@ierano.it 08/21/2014 Editorials, Editorials in English

Words change with changing the time: change in meaning, pronunciation, spelling and so on. Today I’ve learned that there is another word I were not aware of the modern meaning, this word is Jew.

Accordingly to social networks and broadcast media today the word assume different meaning but somehow I’ve been able…
