Numerous studies indicate that agricultural production is sensitive to climate variability, and lack of infrastructure in developing countries increases vulnerability to extreme climate events. In Ethiopia, the historical climate record indicates frequent droughts and floods, which can devastate agricultural production and existing infrastructure. Too much precipitation can flood crops, rot or suffocate roots, and wash out roads, creating similar economic conditions to those resulting from drought.

Ethiopia possesses abundant water resources and hydropower potential, yet less than 5 percent of irrigable land in the Blue Nile basin has been developed for food production, and more than 80 percent of Ethiopians lack access to electricity. Consequently, the Ethiopian government is pursuing plans to develop hydropower and irrigation along the Blue Nile River in an effort to tap into this underused potential.

Tenable®, the exposure management company, today announced that it has been ranked first for 2023 worldwide market share for device vulnerability management in the IDC Worldwide Device Vulnerability Management Market Shares (doc #US51417424, July 2024) report. This is the sixth consecutive year Tenable has been ranked first for market share.

According to the IDC market share report, Tenable is ranked first in global 2023 market share and revenue. Tenable credits its success to its strategic approach to risk management, which includes a suite of industry-leading exposure management solutions that expose and close security gaps, safeguarding business value, reputation and trust. The Tenable One Exposure Management Platform, the world’s only AI-powered exposure management platform, radically unifies security visibility, insight and action across the modern attack surface – IT, cloud, OT and IoT, web apps and identity systems.

According to the IDC market share report, “The top 3 device vulnerability management vendors remained the same in 2023 as previous years, with Tenable once again being the top vendor.”

The report highlighted Tenable’s use of generative AI, noting, “ExposureAI, available as part of the Tenable One platform, provides GenAI-based capabilities that include natural language search queries, attack path and asset exposure summaries, mitigation guidance suggestions, and a bot assistant to ask specific questions about attack path results.”

Tenable’s latest innovations in the vulnerability management market – Vulnerability Intelligence and Exposure Response – were also highlighted in the report, stating, “Vulnerability Intelligence provides dynamic vulnerability information collected from multiple data sources and vetted by Tenable researchers, while Exposure Response enables security teams to create campaigns based on risk posture trends so remediation progress can be monitored internally.”

The report also spotlighted the Tenable Assure Partner Program and MDR partnerships, noting, “Tenable has made more of a strategic effort to recruit managed security service providers (SPs) and improve the onboarding experience for them, as well as their customers. Managed detection and response (MDR) providers have been adding proactive exposure management because it helps shrink the customer attack surface, helping them provide better outcomes. Sophos and Coalfire are recently announced partners adding managed exposure management services to their MDR and pen testing services, respectively.”

“At Tenable, we build products for a cloud-first, platform centric world, meeting customers' evolving risk management needs,” said Shai Morag, chief product officer, Tenable. “We leverage cutting edge technology, innovating across our portfolio to help customers know, expose and close priority security gaps that put businesses at risk.” 

"The device vulnerability management market is characterized by a focus on broader exposure management, with a number of acquisitions to round out exposure management portfolios," said Michelle Abraham, senior research director, Security and Trust at IDC. "Vendors are advised to enhance their offerings with additional security signals and automated remediation workflows to stay competitive in this evolving landscape."

Die Entwicklungsländer konnten seit dem Jahr 2000 beträchtliche Erfolge bei der Reduzierung des Hungers erzielen. Der Welthunger-Index (WHI) 2016 zeigt, dass der Hungerwert in den Entwicklungsländern insgesamt um 29 Prozent gesunken ist. Die Fortschritte sind jedoch nicht überall gleich groß; zwischen Regionen, Ländern und innerhalb von Ländern gibt es erhebliche Unterschiede.

Der Welthunger-Index (WHI) 2016 ist der elfte in einer Reihe jährlicher Berichte, in denen die Hungersituation weltweit, nach Regionen und auf Länderebene mithilfe eines multidimensionalen Ansatzes dargestellt wird. Er zeigt, dass seit dem Jahr 2000 weltweit Fortschritte bei der Bekämpfung von Hunger gemacht wurden, dass aber angesichts noch immer „ernster“ oder „sehr ernster“ Hungerwerte in 50 Ländern nach wie vor viel zu tun bleibt. Der vorliegende Bericht stellt den Paradigmenwechsel in der internationalen Zusammenarbeit durch die Agenda 2030 für nachhaltige Entwicklung vor.

Event Begins: Wednesday, November 13, 2024 9:00am
Location: Lane Hall
Organized By: Judaic Studies

In Fall 2024, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature works by two exciting visual artists: Rafael Neis and Anne Vetter.

Vetter’s photography exhibition, “Love is Not the Last Room” is made in collaboration with the artist’s family—their parents, their brothers, and their partner. It is an examination of play and leisure, tension and freedom. Through photographs, Vetter processes how they learned to relate in their most intimate connections, and how they relate now. This project explores queer familial relationships, and uses Vetter’s own gender fluidity as a lens to examine the gendered experiences of their family members.

Neis and Vetter’s exhibits will be on view from September 3 - December 6, 2024. A reception with the artists is planned for September 17 from 5-6:30 PM in the exhibit space.
The fall exhibits are presented with support from the Department of Women's & Gender Studies, the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies, the Frankel Institute for Advanced Judaic Studies, and the CEW+ Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

Located on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street), the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public, M-F, 9am-4pm

As a kid, Ryanne Jones' friend accidentally hit her in the mouth with a hammer, knocking out her two front teeth. Her parents never had enough money for the dental care needed to fix them, so Ryanne lived much of her adult life with a chipped and crooked smile.

Ryanne spent a while as a single mom working low-wage jobs, but she had higher aspirations: she interviewed dozens of times a year for higher-paying roles that she was more than qualified for. But she never landed any of them. And to her, it really seemed like the only thing standing between her and a better job was her rotting, brown front teeth.

Our physical appearances can communicate a lot about our financial status. There are some things, such as clothing, that we have more control over. But there are other things that we don't — and they can have serious long-term economic consequences.

When the vape brand Juul first hit the market back in 2015, e-cigarettes were in a kind of regulatory limbo. At the time, the rules that governed tobacco cigarettes did not explicitly apply to e-cigarettes. Then Juul blew up, fueled a public health crisis over teen vaping, and inspired a regulatory crackdown. But when the government finally stepped in to solve the problem of youth vaping, it may have actually made things worse.

Today's episode is a collaboration with the new podcast series "Backfired: the Vaping Wars." You can listen to the full series at audible.com/Backfired.

Ray and Becky Queen live in rural Oklahoma with their kids (and chickens). The Queens were able to buy that home with a VA loan because of Ray's service in the Army. During COVID, the Queens – like millions of other Americans – needed help from emergency forbearance. They were told they could pause home payments for up to a year and then pick up again making affordable mortgage payments with no problems.

That's what happened for most American homeowners who took forbearance. But not for tens of thousands of military veterans like Ray Queen.

On today's show, we follow two reporters' journey to figure out what went wrong with the VA's loan forbearance program. How did something meant to help vets keep their houses during COVID end up stranding tens of thousands of them on the brink of foreclosure? And, once the error was spotted, did the government do enough to make things right?
