Cyber Defense Monitoring and Forensics Training

The Computer Emergency Response Team of Mauritius (CERT-MU) in collaboration with the Command and Control Centre of Kenya organised a 3-day training programme on Cyber Defense Monitoring and Forensics at Voilà Hotel, Bagatelle from the 27th February – 1st March 2018. The training course provided an introduction to Network Security Monitoring (NSM), Security Information and Events Management (SIEM), Malware Analysis and Digital Forensics. Major part of the course was hands-on case studies and analysis exercises using real world data. The main focus of the training programme was on intensive hands-on sessions on addressing key challenges faced by local organizations in all sectors/industries. A wide range of commercial and open source tools were used to equip cyber defenders with the necessary skills to anticipate, detect, respond and contain adversaries. The training programme was followed by 23 participants from the public and private sector.

A Pharmacologic "Stress Test" for Assessing Select Antioxidant Defenses in Patients with CKD

Background and objectives

Oxidative stress is a hallmark and mediator of CKD. Diminished antioxidant defenses are thought to be partly responsible. However, there is currently no way to prospectively assess antioxidant defenses in humans. Tin protoporphyrin (SnPP) induces mild, transient oxidant stress in mice, triggering increased expression of select antioxidant proteins (e.g., heme oxygenase 1 [HO-1], NAD[P]H dehydrogenase [quinone] 1 [NQO1], ferritin, p21). Hence, we tested the hypothesis that SnPP can also variably increase these proteins in humans and can thus serve as a pharmacologic "stress test" for gauging gene responsiveness and antioxidant reserves.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

A total of 18 healthy volunteers and 24 participants with stage 3 CKD (n=12; eGFR 30–59 ml/min per 1.73 m2) or stage 4 CKD (n=12; eGFR 15–29 ml/min per 1.73 m2) were injected once with SnPP (9, 27, or 90 mg). Plasma and/or urinary antioxidant proteins were measured at baseline and for up to 4 days post-SnPP dosing. Kidney safety was gauged by serial measurements of BUN, creatinine, eGFR, albuminuria, and four urinary AKI biomarkers (kidney injury molecule 1, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, cystatin C, and N-acetyl glucosaminidase).

Results

Plasma HO-1, ferritin, p21, and NQO1 were all elevated at baseline in CKD participants. Plasma HO-1 and urine NQO1 levels each inversely correlated with eGFR (r=–0.85 to –0.95). All four proteins manifested statistically significant dose- and time-dependent elevations after SnPP injection. However, marked intersubject differences were observed. p21 responses to high-dose SnPP and HO-1 responses to low-dose SnPP were significantly suppressed in participants with CKD versus healthy volunteers. SnPP was well tolerated by all participants, and no evidence of nephrotoxicity was observed.

Conclusions

SnPP can be safely administered and, after its injection, the resulting changes in plasma HO-1, NQO1, ferritin, and p21 concentrations can provide information as to antioxidant gene responsiveness/reserves in subjects with and without kidney disease.
