Innovation in Energy Security and Long-Term Energy Efficiency
The sustainable development of our planet depends on the use of energy. The growing population of the world inevitably causes an increase in the demand for energy, which, on the one hand, threatens the potential for shortages of energy supply, and, on the other hand, causes the deterioration of the environment.Therefore, our task is to reduce this demand through different innovative solutions (i.e., both technological and social). Social marketing and economic policies can also play a role in affecting the behavior of households and companies, by causing behavioral change oriented to energy stewardship, and an overall switch to renewable energy resources. This book provides a platform for the exchange of a wide range of ideas, which, ultimately, would facilitate the driving of societies to long-term energy efficiency.

Information Technology Security and Risk Management : Inductive Cases for Information Security
Information Technology Security and Risk Management: Inductive Cases for Information Security is a compilation of cases that examine recent developments and issues that are relevant to IT security managers, risk assessment and management, and the broader topic of IT security in the 21st century.As the title indicates, the cases are written and analyzed inductively, which is to say that the authors allowed the cases to speak for themselves, and lead where they would, rather than approach the cases with presuppositions or assumptions regarding what the case should be "about".In other words, the authors were given broad discretion to interpret a case in the most interesting and relevant manner possible; any given case may be "about" many things, depending on the perspective adopted by the reader, and many different lessons may be learned.The inductive approach of these cases reflects the design philosophy of the advanced IT Security and Risk Management course we teach on the topic here at the University of Canterbury, where all discussions begin with the analysis of a specific case of interest and follow the most interesting and salient aspects of the case in evidence.In our course, the presentation, analysis, and discussion of a case are followed by a brief lecture to address the conceptual, theoretical, and scholarly dimensions arising from the case.The inductive approach to teaching and learning also comes with a huge advantage – the students seem to love it, and often express their appreciation for a fresh and engaging approach to learning the sometimes-highly-technical content of an IT security course.As instructors, we are also grateful for the break in the typical scripted "chalk-and-talk" of a university lecture afforded by the spontaneity of the inductive approach. We were motivated to prepare this text because there seems to be no other book of cases dedicated to the topic of IT security and risk management, and because of our own success and satisfaction with inductive teaching and learning.We believe this book would be useful either for an inductive, case-based course like our own or as a body of cases to be discussed in a more traditional course with a deductive approach.There are abstracts and keywords for each case, which would help instructors select cases for discussions on specific topics, and PowerPoint slides are available as a guide for discussion about a given case.

India`s Security Environment : Emerging Uncertainties and Challenges
Draws attention to new uncertainties and challenges that have emerged in India`s security environment in the last few years because of the volatile nature of international relations.The 21st century has witnessed the evolution of relations among nations in a manner that has disrupted the sanctity of the international order built in the 20th century.For instance, the rule-based international system is being violated and the violators are not being punished.There is a tendency on the part of major powers to pursue policies governed by nationalism and protectionism without caring for their impact on other nations.The legitimacy of international agreements has been diluted by abrupt withdrawal of big powers from them. The rise of China as an economic and military power and its assertiveness has ruffled the international environment, making choices difficult for smaller nations.The resurgence of Russia and its unquestioned aggressive behaviour vis-a-vis other nations has established a new norm.The proclamation of “America First†doctrine by Donald trump has cut into the very spirit of “collective security†which was the basis of United Nations. It is in this kind of disruptive environment that India has to safeguard its national security against the onslaughts of its adversaries and the shifting behaviour of its partners and neighbours.Despite India`s best efforts to improve relations with China, the future is uncertain.India`s surgical strikes across the LoC on 29 September 2016 and its retaliatory air strike on Balakot terrorist training camp on 26 February 2019 have led us nowhere to believe that Pakistan will be deterred. Despite United States and India having moved closer to each other in defence cooperation, how far United States will stand by its commitments in times of crises remains a question mark.Russia is an old and tested friend but its closeness with China in recent years and its newfound fascination for Pakistan have created a dent in the Indian mind in its trustworthiness. As far as India`s neighbours are concerned, they have been always regarded as reliable partners in India`s security architecture.But whether geopolitical changes brought about by China`s desire to intrude into India`s strategic space in South Asia will allow the neighbours to remain trustworthy partners is a new challenge that India faces. These and other aspects of India`s security environment in the context of a highly unstable international situation have been thoroughly examined.

How does the security barrier in the store with alarm and security technology work?
The security barrier in a store with alarm and security technology typically consists of sensors placed at entry and exit points. These sensors detect when an item with a security tag passes through them without being deactivated at the checkout. When this happens, the sensors trigger an alarm to alert store staff of a potential theft. Additionally, the security tags on items are usually deactivated at the checkout counter using a special device, allowing customers to leave the store without setting off the alarm.

'Security or Freedom?'
The balance between security and freedom is a complex and delicate one. While security is essential for protecting individuals and society from harm, excessive security measures can encroach on personal freedoms. Conversely, too much freedom without adequate security measures can lead to chaos and endanger the well-being of individuals and society. Finding the right balance between security and freedom is crucial for maintaining a stable and just society. It requires thoughtful consideration of the potential risks and benefits of security measures, as well as a commitment to upholding fundamental human rights and freedoms.

Do security bouncers become security guards at 17 years old?
In most places, individuals must be at least 18 years old to become licensed security guards. This age requirement is in place to ensure that individuals have the maturity and responsibility needed for the job. While some establishments may hire individuals as security bouncers at 17 years old for specific roles, they would not be considered licensed security guards until they meet the legal age requirement.

What is the difference between IT security and information security?
IT security and information security are often used interchangeably, but there is a subtle difference between the two. IT security primarily focuses on protecting the digital infrastructure, networks, and systems from unauthorized access, cyber threats, and data breaches. On the other hand, information security encompasses a broader scope, including the protection of all forms of sensitive and valuable information, whether it is in digital or physical form. Information security also involves safeguarding data privacy, compliance with regulations, and managing risks associated with the storage and transmission of information. In summary, while IT security is a subset of information security, the latter encompasses a wider range of protective measures for all types of information assets.

What experiences have you had with security or airport security?
I have had several experiences with airport security while traveling. I have gone through the standard security screening process, including removing my shoes, belt, and electronics, and placing them in the bins for X-ray scanning. I have also been randomly selected for additional screening, which involved a pat-down and a more thorough inspection of my carry-on items. Overall, I have found airport security to be a necessary inconvenience in order to ensure the safety of all passengers.

Should public places be monitored by cameras and security technology?
Public places should be monitored by cameras and security technology to ensure the safety and security of the people using those spaces. These measures can help deter criminal activity, provide evidence in the event of a crime, and help law enforcement respond more effectively to incidents. However, it is important to balance the use of surveillance technology with privacy concerns and ensure that it is used responsibly and ethically. Additionally, there should be transparency and oversight in the use of surveillance technology to prevent abuse and protect civil liberties.
