ser Afrique de l'Ouest : les tracasseries routières aggravent l'insécurité alimentaire By www.ifpri.org Published On :: Thu, 01 Jun 2023 5:05:01 EDT Créée notamment pour promouvoir le commerce intra-régional de biens dans la région, la Communauté économique des États d'Afrique de l'Ouest devait aussi permettre d'y réduire l'insécurité alimentaire. Mais les « points de sécurité », dressés le long des corridors de commerce par les autorités administratives qui prélèvent des pots-de-vin, sont venus limiter cette ambition. S’élevant jusqu’à 576 dollars aux 100 kms au Togo en 2017, cette corruption se mesure aussi en temps perdu, avec plus de trois heures aux 100 kms. Full Article
ser Web Services By www.tenable.com Published On :: Mon, 14 Aug 2023 17:23:25 -0400 Web applications often have the ability to interface with system functions and critical databases to add or modify data. By design, web applications need to enable customers and users to access this data. This capability means that attackers are often able to leverage the same forms or other data entry methods to exploit flaws in web frameworks or other related software to bypass access controls. Web applications exist on remote servers or in cloud environments, and data is transmitted over public networks, presenting a very real and present attack path in the organization’s global attack vector. Web application security is a critical aspect to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of web applications. This dashboard provides a combined view of data collected using the Tenable Web App Scanner and Tenable Vulnerability Management using Nessus. Organizations need to know what web services are operating in the environment to ensure these web services are analyzed for current known vulnerabilities and attacks. Tenable Security Center along with Web Application Scanning provides a thorough view of risks related to web services. Leveraging both scan methods, enables the security operations team and application developers to see risk and threat vectors from application frameworks and vulnerabilities on the host servers themselves. Security and compliance frameworks, such as the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10, provides risk managers insight into methods used by adversaries to exploit common flaws and misconfigurations. Tenable Web Application Scanner attributes vulnerabilities using the Cross Reference field to link to all published OWASP versions. Upon completion of the web application scan, the vulnerabilities detected and linked to OWASP 2021 provide an industry best practice approach to mitigating vulnerabilities. The dashboard and its components are available in the Tenable.sc Feed, a comprehensive collection of dashboards, reports, assurance report cards and assets. The dashboard can be easily located in the Tenable Security Center Feed under the category Threat Detection & Vulnerability Assessments. The requirements for this dashboard are: Tenable Security Center 6.2.0 Tenable Nessus X.Y.Z Tenable Web Application Scanner Security leaders need to SEE everything, PREDICT what matters most and ACT to address cyber risk and effectively align cybersecurity initiatives with business objectives. Tenable Security Scanner discovers and analyzes assets continuously to provide an accurate and unified view of an organization's security posture. Components Web Services - WAS Highest Vulnerabilities by Plugin Family: This component provides a summary of the highest risk affecting (severity Medium to Critical) vulnerabilities collected using Tenable Web App Scanner. The Plugin Family Summary tool enables security teams to see at a high level the percentage of high-risk vulnerabilities. In addition to the severity filter, a new filter called Web App Scanning, set to “Only Web App Results” ensures that only the vulnerabilities that are collected from the web application scan are presented. The drill down will also go straight to the “Web App Scanning” tab in the Analysis view. Web Services - Most Critical Web Application Vulnerabilities Discovered by Nessus: This component provides a summary of the highest risk affecting (severity Medium to Critical) vulnerabilities collected using Nessus. The Plugin Family Summary tool enables security teams to see at a high level the percentage of high-risk vulnerabilities. The component also uses the Plugin Family filter and only selects the CGI and Web Server families. In addition to the severity and Plugin Family filters, a new filter called Web App Scanning, set to “Exclude Web App Results” ensures that only the vulnerabilities that are collected from a Nessus scan are presented. Web Services - Host and Web Application SSL Vulnerabilities: This matrix compares the web server related vulnerabilities by severity and collection method. Each row is separated using the Web App Scanning filter. The top row has the filter set to “Exclude Web App Results” and bottom row is set to “Only Web App Results”. This view allows the security operations team to get a side-by-side view of web-based vulnerabilities linked by severity. Web Services - Most Critical OWASP 2021 Categories: This matrix provides an indicator for each OWASP 2021 category where vulnerabilities were detected using the Tenable Web App Scanner. In addition to Cross Reference filter, the matrix uses CVSSv3 Vectors to provide a higher level of risk. The vectors used are: Attack Vector: Network (AV:N), Attack Complexity: Low (AC:L), Privileges Required: None (PR). If the vulnerability has any of these vectors applied, the attacks on the asset are at a greater risk to being exploited, and need to be addressed immediately. Web Services - Web App Vulnerabilities over last 50 days: This component provides a trend summary of the highest risk affecting (severity Medium to Critical) vulnerabilities collected using Tenable Web App Scanner. The data points are calculated with the Vulnerability Last Observed set to within the last day, thus each query point in the graph will show the total vulnerabilities that were seen since the last query point. In addition to the date and severity filters, a new filter called Web App Scanning, set to “Only Web App Results” ensures that only the vulnerabilities that are collected from the web application scan are presented.

ser The case of the serial sinking Spanish ships By www.npr.org Published On :: Fri, 05 Jan 2024 22:26:04 +0000 Picture the Pacific Ocean of the 16th century. Spanish Galleons sail the wide open seas, carrying precious cargo like silver, porcelain, and textiles. The waters are dangerous; ship logs show concerns over pirates. But pirates are not to blame for a mysterious event that keeps happening.For, you see, one in five of the ships leaving from the port of Manila didn't make it to Acapulco. It's a shipwrecking rate much higher than rates for other routes of the time. And the mystery of the serial shipwrecking Spanish ships remains unsolved, until today. Everyone involved with these Spanish ships were aligned in a goal: Don't wreck the Spanish ships. And yet, wreck they did. Three economists took a look at the incentives for profit and risk at the time, and found the key to unlocking this ancient booty (of knowledge).Our show today was produced by James Sneed, edited by Jess Jiang, fact-checked by Sierra Juarez, and engineered by Cena Loffredo. Alex Goldmark is Planet Money's executive producer.

ser The secret world behind school fundraisers By www.npr.org Published On :: Thu, 29 Feb 2024 01:54:59 +0000 Fundraising is a staple of the school experience in the U.S. There's an assembly showing off all the prizes kids can win by selling enough wrapping paper or chocolate to their neighbors. But it's pretty weird, right?Why do schools turn kids into little salespeople? And why do we let companies come in and dangle prizes in front of students?We spend a year with one elementary school, following their fundraising efforts, to see how much they raise, and what the money goes to. The school – Villacorta Elementary in La Puente, California – has one big goal: To raise enough money to send every single student on one field trip. The whole school hasn't been able to go on one in three years. We find out what the companies who run school fundraisers do to try to win a school's business. And we find that this bizarre tradition is ... surprisingly tactical. That's on today's episode. Today's show was hosted by Sarah Gonzalez and produced by Sam Yellowhorse Kesler. It was edited by Jess Jiang, fact checked by Sierra Juarez, and engineered by Valentina Rodríguez Sánchez. Alex Goldmark is Planet Money's executive producer.
