Warnings from economists Pension system on the brink of collapse?

Status: 21.06.2021 10:35 a.m.

Too few contributors and high household burdens – experts repeatedly point out the problems of statutory pension insurance. Does that inevitably lead to retirement at 68 or even 70? By Andreas Braun, tagesschau.de The criticism of the German pension insurance system, which has been publicly discussed for weeks, is sharp. The entire structure of the pay-as-you-go pension has been called into question by economists in recent weeks. Many of the criticisms have been known for a long time, but above all caused a stir Paper of the scientific advisory board at the Federal Ministry of Economics , an advisory body within the federal government. Economics Minister Peter Altmaier himself presented the committee’s proposals as “not binding” on his ministry The advisory board is “independent”.

Pension and contribution guarantees aggravate the situation

With their description of the state of the German pension insurance system, the authors of the study are anything but alone among experts. You see “suddenly increasing financing problems” approaching the pension funds. These problems are mainly caused by the guarantee of the pension level introduced in 2018 at 48 percent of the average wage and the limitation of pension contributions to a maximum of 20 percent.

Together with the introduction of the “pension at 63”, this led to the deficit within the pension insurance system being further expanded. More than a quarter of the federal budget had to be diverted to the pension fund in 2019 to fill this gap. In 2040, almost half of the federal funds are threatened to be used for this.

Increasing life expectancy

The conclusion of the economists of the advisory board with its chairman, the Munich economics professor Klaus M. Schmidt, reads: The coupling of the retirement age to life expectancy is “inevitable”. So if Germans tend to live longer and receive longer pensions, the start of retirement will have to be pushed back accordingly. This would correspond to a “pension at 68” in around 20 years.

In addition, the experts are calling for pension increases no longer to be carried out consistently in the future. While existing pensions should only increase with the development of purchasing power, a guarantee of 48 percent, for example, can still be guaranteed for “access pensions”, ie employees who are going into retirement.

Criticism of “unsocial” proposals

While politicians from many parties immediately criticized the committee’s proposals as “anti-social” or unrealistic, the authors also received support from academia from other quarters. The researchers from the employer-related Institute of the German Economy (IW) also see a further extension of the working life as a sensible way to stabilize the German pension system.

IW study director Jochen Pimpertz sees this as an opportunity “to slow down the rise in premiums and at the same time to stabilize the security level”. He recommends raising the retirement age from 2031 by two months for each year of birth. In 2052, the standard retirement age would then be 70 years. The Freiburg economist Bernd Raffelhüschen also sees a dramatic need for reform in the pension system in Germany. The federal government can only choose between “plague and cholera,” he said in a recent interview. Either the contribution rates for the pension fund or the federal subsidy would have to be drastically increased. In the past few years, the federal government gave the “majority of the elderly” too generous gifts, he said.

Swedish stock pension model

Martin Werding, professor at the Ruhr University in Bochum, is calling for a radical move away from today’s pure pay-as-you-go financing. Werding has calculated that a “share pension”, in which employees invest two percent of their gross income in an equity fund, could increase pension payments by up to 30 percent for average earners who have been insured for many years. The consumer advice centers also consider such a provision component, which is based, for example, on the Swedish pension model, to be sensible. Klaus Müller, member of the board of directors of the Federal Association of Consumer Organizations, sees the share investment as an opportunity to get “more money in old age” for insured persons.

But even a fundamental reform of the pension system is unlikely to close the gap between earned income and retirement income for many contributors. The Riester pension, which was introduced around 20 years ago , however, many experts are convinced that it is hardly suitable for this. There are increasing votes for Riester subsidies to expire under a new federal government in autumn. A prominent critic of the Riester model is, for example, the economist and former “economy” Bert Rürup. He advocates pension accounts that could be managed by a foundation and should be accessible to all citizens. Here, too, the idea is that additional contributions are invested primarily in the capital market and converted into payment plans in old age that supplement the statutory pension

FAQ

Statutory old-age provision How the pension is financed

Status: 21.06.2021 10:35 a.m.

It is and should remain the foundation of the old-age provision of millions of Germans: the statutory pension. How does our pension system work and what are the challenges it faces?

From Andreas Braun, tagesschau.de

How is the statutory pension basically organized?

The statutory pension in Germany is organized according to the so-called pay-as-you-go system. Those who pay in do not build up a capital stock that they can fall back on in old age, but rather finance the current earnings of the current pensioners. Anyone who pays into the statutory pension thus acquires a right to such a pension in old age, for which the next generation then has to pay. After a certain waiting period – currently five years – this entitlement is given. In order to receive a pension, you must also have reached a certain age (currently 67 years as a rule).

Who pays into the statutory pension fund?

Employees in Germany are required to pay into the statutory pension. Employers take over half of the payments into the pension fund. The contribution rate is currently 18.6 percent, so 9.3 percent each comes from employees and employers. Self-employed, freelancers or people who are not gainfully employed can also make voluntary contributions. All contributors acquire pension entitlements to which a certain pension amount corresponds. It is determined by so-called “remuneration points”.

How much does the federal government pay into the pension fund from tax revenues?

Since the income from contributors has long been unable to cover the expenses of the pension fund, the federal government co-finances the fund through tax revenue. In 2020, these expenditures exceeded the 100 billion euro mark for the first time. The federal budget provides 106 billion euros for 2021. That is more than a quarter of the federal budget. According to experts the proportion could rise to more than 50 percent of the budget in the coming decades .

What caused the deficit in the pension fund?

The demographic development in Germany is the main reason: The number of people paying into the pension system is facing an increasing number of pensioners. In 2020 there were 57 pensioners for every 100 contributors. In 2050, it is estimated that 100 contributors will make payments for 77 retirees. Since the pension level has always been adjusted upwards in line with the general wage level and there have been no pension cuts, the deficit is growing steadily.

What is meant by the “sustainability factor”?

In order to be able to take into account the ratio of contributors to pension recipients when calculating the pension amount, the “sustainability factor” was introduced in 2005. It should lead to the fact that the pension increases are dampened with an unfavorable ratio of contributors to pensioners. However, only a quarter of the factor is included in the calculation.

What are the “stop lines” set by politicians?

The legislator has provided so-called stop lines, which secure the pension level and at the same time limit the contributions to the pension fund. It is planned that the pension level (with 45 years of contribution) will not fall below 48 percent of current average earnings by 2025. A second stop line relates to the level of contributions from employers and employees. The contribution rate may not exceed 18.6 percent until 2025.

Why is the situation in the pension funds worsening?

The increasingly unfavorable ratio of contributors to pensioners – together with the state guarantees for the amount of pensions and contributions – will further exacerbate the funding gap in the pension insurance scheme in the years to come. The federal government has not yet made any fundamental changes to this system.

What are the options for reforming the pension system?

Proposals for reform target both the revenue and the expenditure side of the statutory pension insurance system. In order to increase the income, either the contribution rates could be increased. In addition, statutory compulsory insurance is also being discussed for additional groups of people such as self-employed or civil servants. On the expenditure side, the pension amount can be reduced on the one hand, and the retirement age can be increased on the other. A link to general life expectancy, for example, is conceivable. The income from the contributions paid in, and thus also the future pension amount, could also be increased by investing more contributions in the capital market.

What should the insured expect in the coming years?

The growing imbalance between income and expenditure in the statutory pension insurance will make reforms necessary in the coming years – economists and politicians of the most important parties see this equally. Contribution rates are likely to rise while average pension levels are lowered and working lives are further extended. In any case, it is likely to become even more important for the insured to make private provision for old age

Electric car manufacturer US agency investigates Tesla accidents

Status: 06/18/2021 10:49 a.m.

The US traffic safety authority NHTSA has investigated 30 accidents with Tesla models since 2016. It examines whether and how the use of Tesla’s assistance system for automated driving influenced the accidents. In recent years, accidents involving Tesla models have repeatedly raised the question of the extent to which there is a connection with the assistance system for automated driving. Does the US electric car manufacturer’s autopilot pose any particular dangers? To find out, the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is currently investigating 30 accidents involving Tesla models. The accidents have occurred since 2016 and claimed a total of ten deaths. The NHTSA has now published an official list with details of the accidents investigated for the first time, as reported by Reuters news agency.

Sensational accident in Texas

Accordingly, eight new investigations have been initiated since March 2021. In three of the 30 cases, the involvement of the autopilot in the accident could be excluded, according to the NHTSA. Two final reports are ready.

An accident in Texas in April caused a sensation in which a Tesla Model S hit a tree and immediately caught fire . Two men died in the accident. It is believed that neither of them had been behind the wheel. The authority is currently investigating six other incidents from other manufacturers in which assistance systems may be involved.

Problems in china

The US electrical manufacturer Tesla is repeatedly confronted with all kinds of safety concerns, most recently in the important Chinese market.

For example, an event at the Shanghai auto show in April caused a sensation. A woman at the Tesla booth got into a Model 3 from the manufacturer and complained screaming about brake failure. It was taken away by security guards while the videos were spreading online. The Chinese market supervisory authority then intervened, and state media called for an investigation into Tesla.

Tesla is the best-selling electric car in China. The group has also been producing in Shanghai since 2019. A quarter of all Teslas now roll off the assembly line there

Less CO2 through power plants EUEmissions trading paying off

Status: 06/17/2021 3:36 p.m.

The European emissions trading system had an impact last year. According to figures from the Federal Environment Agency, CO2 emissions in Germany’s power plants have fallen sharply. It looks different with industry.

From Martin Polansky, ARD capital studio

The German power plants emitted 15 percent less CO2 last year than in 2019. Coal power plants in particular were shut down. The energy sector and industry in this country have reduced their CO2 emissions by 33 percent since 2013. This is shown by current figures presented by the Federal Environment Agency (UBA).

According to the head of the German Emissions Trading Authority at UBA, Jürgen Landgrebe, European emissions trading has proven its worth. “The greenhouse gas emissions of the plants in Germany have fallen significantly.” Since 2018, the EU has decided to significantly strengthen its ambitions in European emissions trading. “And as a result, the markets reacted immediately,” said Landgrebe.

Significant price increases since 2018

Emissions trading is seen as a market-based instrument to reduce CO2 emissions. The system has existed since 2005. It ensures that around 1,800 power plants and industrial companies in Germany require emission certificates in order to be allowed to emit CO2.

The certificates are traded. The number of these decreases annually, which means that their price increases gradually. As a result, CO2 emissions are also becoming more and more expensive. While the certificate price was quite low for a long time, it has increased significantly since 2018 – to more than 50 euros per ton of CO2.

Gas-fired power plants and renewable energy systems have benefited from this, said the head of the emissions trading office. Last year, more than 45 percent of the gross electricity consumption in Germany was covered by renewable energies. “The aim is for us to price fossil fuels heavily so that renewable energies also become competitive more quickly,” said Landgrebe.

Weak effects in industry

Many market observers assume that emissions trading could lead to the shutdown of coal-fired power plants in this country much earlier than 2038. This end date was agreed a good two years ago in the so-called coal compromise between industry, environmental associations and trade unions. The federal government had largely adopted the compromise in the coal exit law. In industry, however, the effect of emissions trading has so far been less pronounced. Emissions have only fallen by around eight percent since 2013 – also due to the corona pandemic. In many cases there is a lack of marketable alternatives, for example for chemical plants or the steel industry. The latter is to switch from coke to hydrogen in the long term.

Help for retrofitting

The head of the German Emissions Trading Authority advocated increasing the pressure on industry. Fewer CO2 certificates should soon be issued. In addition, public aid is available for retrofitting. Landgrebe referred to the European innovation fund, which will provide approximately 20 billion euros for corresponding investments.

“The national decarbonisation fund is also providing around two billion euros to strongly promote such technologies and bring them to market readiness,” said Landgrebe.

Special taxes on industrial imports?

The steel industry and other sectors fear that European companies could suffer competitive disadvantages if the pressure to switch becomes too strong. The argument goes that climate protection does not benefit from steel coming more from India or China in the future.

In the European Union there are therefore considerations to impose special taxes on industrial imports from regions of the world with low climate standards in order to protect domestic industry. The EU Commission wants to present plans in July on how emissions trading can be used even more. On the one hand, consideration is being given to lowering the CO2 cap more quickly in order to meet the more ambitious European climate targets. On the other hand, certificate trading could be expanded to the areas of transport and buildings.

Surcharge at the gas station

In Germany, there has been a national CO2 pricing for fuel, heating oil and natural gas since the beginning of the year. However, this system is currently not based on a fixed CO2 cap, which is gradually being lowered, but on a price surcharge, for example at the petrol station – in the hope that people will use less fuel.

Similar to the issue of phasing out coal, European emissions trading could in the long run make the special national regulations superfluous in this country – if it proves to be the more efficient and market-compliant system for reducing CO2 emissions

Multi-plan and fully autonomous “rapid rendezvous and docking” Compared with the Shenzhou 11 manned spacecraft and the spacecraft in front of it, a big difference between the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft is the introduction of the rapid rendezvous and docking of the Tianzhou cargo spacecraft in the manned spacecraft for the first time. The full-phase and fully autonomous rendezvous and docking function of the second cargo spacecraft. It is reported that according to the functional requirement that the rapid rendezvous and docking required by the mission is less than 6.5 hours (according to the official caliber), the 502 Institute of the 5th Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group combined with the short-distance rendezvous and docking time setting, and designed multiple sets of plans for the long-distance autonomous rendezvous. , These are fully autonomous programs. Of course, the plan can also be personalized, that is, customize on-demand through the ground, and inform the GNC system before launch, then the system will execute the whole process autonomously. Proximity rendezvous was already a fully autonomous plan at the second step of the “three-step” strategy of China’s manned space project. However, due to the new characteristics of the space station’s multiple interfaces and the backward-facing interface when there is a cargo spacecraft docked, it is a cooperative goal for backward cooperation. The occlusion and other constraints. The third step close rendezvous On the basis of the second step, the docking point rendezvous plan, the original design state and flight mode are modified, and new flight conditions are added-the direct rendezvous plan, relative to the docking point rendezvous plan, the direct rendezvous plan It takes less time and consumes less propellant. Set a point cleverly, saving time and effort This is a point in the space near the space station. It is the soul of the short-range fully autonomous direct rendezvous program. It is the crystallization of the further improvement of my country’s space rendezvous and docking technology and orbiting technology. It is also the third step of the manned space project to achieve rapid rendezvous and docking. shortcut. In order to meet the new requirements of multiple pairs of interfaces and rapid rendezvous and docking for space station operation, the three-step strategy for manned space project 502 of the Fifth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Group is based on the second step mastering automatic and manual rendezvous and docking and orbiting technologies, and the third step is In the space station phase, a new flight feature point—the midpoint of sight—is added to the rendezvous and docking mission. The mid-point aiming point is the abbreviation of “midway aiming point” for rendezvous and docking. It is the “transfer station” before the rendezvous and docking of manned spacecraft, cargo spacecraft and space station. It is located behind and below the space station. Through this point, it is the most convenient and quick to complete the connection with the space station. The rendezvous and docking of the forward, radial and backward docking interfaces has the characteristics of saving time (time) and labor (propellant consumption). The introduction of the midpoint is a manifestation of the continuous development of my country’s rendezvous and docking technology and the confidence in design and implementation. If the rendezvous and docking is likened to mountain climbing, the rearward anchoring point rendezvous method in the second step of the manned space project requires a rehearsal or rehearsal to climb several times during the formal summit. The previous summit is for the final formal summit. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive to confirm your own status and related guarantee conditions. The mid-point rendezvous method is through the “mid-point”, the match point near the top of the mountain. During the process, you can confirm the target and guarantee conditions, and dynamically adjust the climbing rhythm according to your own status until you reach the top. The time effort can save up to 40%. . Guangzhou Daily·Xinhuacheng reporter: Xiao Huanhuan, correspondent Chai Yue Guangzhou Daily·New Flower City Editor: Cai Lingyue

Yesterday, the official microblog of China Mobile Mobile Club announced that it will hold a new product launch conference on June 22 to release new terminal brands and NZONE S7 series 5G mobile phones.

From the configuration point of view, it is another “Made of the Mean”-the Nzone S7 series uses Dimensity 720 chip, equipped with 64MP triple camera, 90Hz refresh rate centered perforated screen, it is said that the frame is very narrow and supports 40W fast charge protocol.

From the configuration point of view, the “prospect” of China Mobile’s new machine is almost doomed-tepid. Not warm: With China Mobile’s strong sales channels, coupled with price advantages, sales should not be small; not popular: With such hardware configuration and China Mobile’s software capabilities, there is no possibility of “fire” at all.

Of course, the “tepid” state may be exactly what China Mobile wants. China Mobile’s purpose of making mobile phones is different from other mobile phone manufacturers. Others pursue sales, single-machine profit margins, and brand influence. These China Mobile It is not pursued, even its purpose is not to make money.

So what does China Mobile want? Guidance to the industry chain!

An executive of China Mobile once said that China Mobile will not compete with the industry chain for profit-“We are an operator, and it will not rely on terminals to make money. The main purpose of developing independent brands is to provide users with a better experience. , And being able to have a cheap and good-quality mobile phone is mainly to play a guiding role.”

To put it bluntly, China Mobile’s production of mobile phones is more of a demonstration effect-1. Don’t be too much of your mobile phone manufacturers. I can make mobile phones by myself, not all of you. 2. The price of your mobile phones is too high. Setting a low price to “hedge” it, forcing you to lower your price, is a market price regulator.

Therefore, the end of the Nzone S7 may be exactly the same as those of China Mobile’s self-owned brand phones before, with a splash of water and then silence.

However, in one case, Nzone S7 may be “hot”, that is-equipped with Hongmeng system.

Due to the ups and downs of Huawei’s ups and downs in the past two years, the Hongmeng system launched by it can be said to be the most concerned “software product” in history. Everyone has placed too much hope on Hongmeng, and hope that Hongmeng will one day Stepping on the colorful clouds to save China’s IT industry as a hero of the world, unfortunately, the reality is completely different from what everyone imagined. As of now, no mobile phone manufacturer other than Huawei has made it clear that it is equipped with the Hongmeng system on mobile phone products.

Therefore, if China Mobile chooses to launch a new machine equipped with the Hongmeng system at this time, the attention and recognition it will receive will be unprecedented!

In fact, China Mobile is fully equipped to launch a Hongmeng mobile phone——

First, China Mobile is not afraid of US sanctions. The reason why Xiaomi and other mobile phone manufacturers dare not launch Hongmeng system phones is mainly because they are worried that Google will cut off the supply of the “Google Family Bucket” to affect its overseas markets. China Mobile has no overseas markets at all, so there is no such concern. Moreover, China Mobile has long been “sanctioned” by the US government, and the so-called debt is not worrying.

Second, China Mobile does not make money by selling mobile phones. Mobile phone manufacturers such as Xiaomi are worried that after using the Hongmeng system, it will be difficult to form a head-on competition with Huawei mobile phones, while China Mobile is just playing a ticket on mobile phones, so there is no need to worry about being squeezed by Huawei.

Third, China Mobile has a close relationship with Huawei. Mobile phones from other manufacturers have formed a distinctive and exclusive style. To use Hongmeng OS, it takes a lot of time and energy to optimize the open source code. China Mobile does not have this trouble. In addition to the close relationship between China Mobile and Huawei, it is directly developed by Huawei. The Hongmeng OS is very logical.

Huawei Hongmeng is now in need of industry chain support. If China Mobile can now stand up and help it, with China Mobile’s influence in the industry, it will definitely be a help for Huawei. And by carrying Hongmeng, China Mobile can also gain a large number of fans, which is also of great benefit to the promotion of its brand image, which is definitely a win-win!

Regrettably, it is understood that Nzone S7 is not equipped with the Hongmeng system. It can be said that China Mobile has missed the best opportunity to increase its influence and restore user reputation.

Of course, with China Mobile’s consistent “decision and then action” and “stabilized as Taishan” style of doing things, it is indeed a bit difficult for it to be the first external manufacturer to use the Hongmeng mobile phone system.

State-owned enterprise employees believe in “do not seek merits, but seek no demerits”. It is hard to say whether Hongmeng mobile phones have merits, but Hongmeng is on the cusp of things, and it is better to be less provoked, because one trick will lead to “pass”. Upper body, is it not fragrant to wait for retirement?

In the past, all three planets were rocky planets, the surface of which was composed of solid metals and silicates. Among them, our Earth is the largest planet, the mass and radius of Venus is only about 82% and 95% of the Earth, respectively, the mass and radius of Mars only account for about 11% and 53% when compared to our planet. Over the past few decades, humans have launched many unmanned probes to Venus and Mars, and it turns out that the environments on these two planets are very harsh. Venus is too hot, and Mars is too cold, and there is no oxygen on either planet, so life on Earth could not exist in such an environment, and astronomers could not find it. see any other traces of life there. So, how were Venus and Mars 4 billion years ago? Why are Venus and Mars now barren, and only our planet is habitable? Calculated based on the radiant power of the sun, Venus and Mars also operate in the same habitable zone as Earth, which means they can receive just the right amount of solar radiation to water. on their surface can still be in a liquid state. Astronomers speculate based on current signs on Venus and Mars and surmise that there may have been an ocean of liquid water on both Venus and Mars 4 billion years ago. For the first few hundred million years, Venus was a warm and humid planet. In the primordial oceans of Venus, life was fully qualified to evolve. They could be carbon-based life like life on Earth or could be other life forms. However, Venus’s habitable period did not last long. Because Venus is so close to the sun, and the temperature of the sun gradually increases over time, making Venus hotter and hotter, and a large amount of liquid water has also been evaporated. At the same time, the volcanic activity on Venus is also gradually becoming more active and continuously releasing carbon dioxide, causing a strong greenhouse effect. Without oceans, carbon dioxide would not be neutralized. They enter the atmosphere and cause a severe greenhouse effect, which will increase the temperature on Venus. Meanwhile, on Earth, the oceans, plants and minerals absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide, so the Earth will not become too hot due to the strong greenhouse effect during that period. Eventually, Venus’ greenhouse effect was completely out of control, liquid water completely evaporated, and life could have been destroyed. According to data returned by the Venus probe, the current concentration of carbon dioxide in Venus’s atmosphere is as high as 96.5%, and the surface atmospheric pressure is 91 times higher than the Earth’s surface. Under the influence of this extreme greenhouse effect, Venus has essentially reached thermal equilibrium, and the average surface temperature is as high as 464 degrees Celsius. Although it is essentially impossible to have life on the surface of Venus today, some astronomers speculate that there may be some strange life in the atmosphere of Venus. In the sky high enough above the surface of Venus, the atmospheric pressure will be moderate, and the temperature will not be high, possibly for the synthesis of organic matter and the evolution of life. On the other hand, ancient Mars was probably also a habitable planet. Currently, on Mars there is a large amount of water-washed terrain, and there are some iron ores that can only be generated in the aquatic environment, which is strong evidence for the existence of a large amount of water. liquid water on ancient Mars. So, how did Mars become such a uninhabitable planet as it is? At present-day Mars’ North Pole, there is a giant basin whose surface is equivalent to two-fifths of the surface of Mars. This huge Arctic basin was formed by a massive collision. Studies have shown that about 3.9 billion years ago, a dwarf planet (about the size of Pluto) with a diameter of about 2,000 km collided with the north pole of Mars. This massive collision completely changed the core of Mars, causing activities inside Mars to quickly stop, and the Martian magnetic field also gradually weakened and finally almost disappeared. lost. Without the protection of the magnetic field, the solar wind gradually strengthens and melts the atmosphere of Mars, liquid water continues to evaporate, causing Mars to quickly become a barren land. Currently, there is almost no atmosphere on Mars, but there is still some water ice in the polar regions. In addition, there may be a seasonal amount of liquid water in some areas of Mars, which has a high salt content and may be temporarily liquid in the low-temperature Martian environment. At the moment, the temperature on Mars is very low, the average temperature is only -63 degrees Celsius. If humans want to settle on Mars in the future, the first thing to do is to strengthen the star’s magnetic field. Mars and produces large amounts of greenhouse gases to “heat” Mars and melt the solid water that exists on Mars. Mars is much smaller than Earth, so it would have cooled from its molten state at its inception faster than Earth, so liquid water on Mars may have appeared earlier, which could This means that life on Mars may have formed and evolved earlier than our planet. Therefore, there are conspiracy theories that, when celestial bodies collided with Mars, the rocks that were thrown into space by the collisions could have carried the germ of life on Mars into space, and then some someday fall to Earth, becoming the source of life on Earth. And perhaps by coincidence, life on Earth also began to form around the same time that Mars’ North Pole collided. From the point of view of time, this is consistent. In addition, astronomers have discovered traces of suspected life in meteorites on Mars that have fallen to Earth. Life on Earth may have originated on Mars, but this has so far required more convincing evidence. In the past, the Curiosity rover has detected some carbon-containing organic substances in the rocks on Mars, which may be evidence that ancient Mars once had a few living things. Even now, it is still possible for life on Mars, they did not go extinct billions of years ago, but moved into the Martian underground and developed a unique survival mechanism to adapt to the harsh environment. harsh on this planet. Compared to Venus and Mars, our planet is very lucky. For billions of years, Earth has always been a habitable planet, so hundreds of millions of species have appeared here. Our Earth is like a “chosen planet”, a moderate distance from the sun, with a magnetic field that can resist solar radiation so that all kinds of life can continue to multiply and develop. Although it cannot be ruled out that some planets in the solar system (such as Europa) also harbor life, the environments of those planets are very different from those of Earth, and most life on Earth is not ruled out. Soil cannot exist there. In the near future, Earth will still be the only planet inhabited by humans in the universe.

The Iron Dome system tested to intercept missiles. (Photo broadcast by VNA) The Times of Israel on June 15 reported that Israel Defense Forces (IDF) deployed several Iron Dome missile defense batteries near Jerusalem, before the anniversary parade Jerusalem Day takes place. The parade, originally scheduled for May 10, was postponed due to the 11-day Israel-Gaza military conflict. The parade, scheduled to start at 6pm on June 15 (Israel time), is one of the issues that threaten to escalate tensions between Israel and Palestine. In a related development, clashes broke out between a group of Palestinian protesters and IDF soldiers at the Gaza border. A Palestinian is said to have been shot in the leg and suffered minor injuries. Hamas Movement threatened to resume missile strikes on Israel if the parade continued. The Palestinian news agency WAFA reported on June 15 that dozens of Palestinians were gassed with tear gas when the Israeli army attacked a crowd protesting against a march that was about to take place in Jerusalem. According to WAFA, the Israeli military fired tear gas and hurled stun grenades at protesters at the entrance to the town of al-Ram in Northeast Jerusalem. In addition, the Israeli army also attacked and drove away Palestinian protesters at the Bab al-Amoud area (also known as the Damascus gate), one of the gates to the Old City of Jerusalem. At least two Palestinians were arrested in the incident.

Developers have made many promises to the features of this new platform: while maintaining smooth motion and interaction, the application startup speed is increased by 30%; the power consumption is improved from the underlying core part, and the watch’s frequent happy rate tracking can also accompany sleep. There is also a remaining battery in the second day; it provides developers with a more relaxed and powerful watch application development environment, and device manufacturers can customize the experience in depth. Wear has made many experience improvements, such as the double-click button that is not unfamiliar on mobile phones but is the first time on Android watches to quickly switch applications; and for example, the Tiles card interface that slides horizontally is open to third-party developers, giving users self-help There is more room to define the shortcut functions of the watch; Google Pay and Google Assistant have been redesigned, and Youtube music will also come to the watch. In general, Google presents a smart watch platform that is in line with the current development of wearable devices. It’s just that before this conference, it tends to be very low-key and slow. , It’s not like a platform that can drive devices to rival Apple Watch or other best-selling wearable devices. Woke up early, but I haven’t caught up with the episode The road to Google’s smart watch originated seven years ago. On March 19, 2014, Google I/O revealed Android Wear, which was a branch of Android that was making a big stride at the time. At that time, the entire wearable market was in the ascendant. Whether it was the high-end representative Apple Watch or the popular Xiaomi bracelet, it would take another six months to officially debut. This shows the long-term vision of Google. The first smartwatch to use Android Wear is the moto 360, which has an almost complete circular dial that astounds the audience. At the same time, Samsung and LG, the main manufacturers of the Android camp, also released their own products. Unlike Android’s full openness, this ultra-small screen platform does not allow manufacturers to customize the interface and functions, and the experience between different products and different brands cannot be widened. However, the product experience and sales were not satisfactory. Motorola and LG withdrew from the smart watch market in just a few generations, while Samsung replaced the follow-up watch with its own Tizen system. Although there are continuous, small-scale iterations, and it was renamed Wear OS in March 2018, the watches equipped with this platform in the international market are often luxury brands or niche brands, and there are no large-scale products shipped. Apple once again completed its market education, integrating data from multiple research institutions, The Apple Watch series has gained about 40% of the global market size of 90 million units , Samsung, Huawei, and Fitbit adopt independent platforms with nearly 10% each, and there is no Wear OS camp among the top manufacturers. It was so weak that it was almost forgotten in the public eye. It was not until the merger and name change were announced that it could not find a sense of existence. What has Google done wrong on the current Wear platform, and what opportunities for smart watches and wearable devices have been missed? It is worth learning a lesson from Google, all vendors in the Wear camp, and other competitors. Endurance and experience that are difficult to balance From an industry perspective, wearable devices are composed of true wireless earphones, smart watches, smart bracelets and other categories. Although it is a huge market of nearly 450 million units by 2020, up to 80% of them belong to other than smart watches. product. Smart watches are now divided into two schools, “large bracelets” and full-featured watches, which represent two completely different product ideas. Under the small size of the watch form, it is often difficult to provide high performance and long battery life, so the “large bracelet” chooses to add on the smart bracelet, the main attack can be used for about two weeks of long battery life, and the pre-installed weather, Limited experience in sports, health, payment, etc. From the market feedback, consumers agree with this route, and it is a good product if the common functions are well done without frequent charging. As a representative of a full-featured watch, Apple Watch is fully self-defeating: the pursuit of installable applications and fluency, and the battery life is so short that the previous generations cannot monitor sleep, and the LTPO screen can display the time for a long time. The positive effect is that it is excellent in high-end functions such as health, efficiency, and independent communication. It also has a good texture based on high pricing. Fully grasp the high-end market under the luxury goods. Currently, watches equipped with Wear OS cannot find a balance between the above two routes. Two-day battery life is the limit of most products, and advanced functions such as application ecology, connection experience, and intelligent interaction are not so easy to use. Among them, the hardware platform performance is not strong enough, but it is enough to show that Google’s work on software is not sufficient. The merger with Tizen on the watch side is regarded as a major benefit for the Wear platform because Samsung has built a more harmonious smartwatch experience with its own efforts after Apple. Samsung continues to use the One UI interface on the watch that is consistent with that of the mobile phone. It is beautiful and has a highly customizable space. Health, sports, reminders, and interaction are all in the first echelon, but third-party applications are pitiful. Assuming that Wear’s existing ecological foundation and Google services can be organically combined with Tizen’s excellent visual interactive experience, Then we may see an ecosystem that can be on the same line as Apple Watch’s watchOS on the full-featured watch route. Not very limited by Android’s system customization As mentioned earlier, although the bloodline of the Wear platform is differentiated from Android, Google has not allowed manufacturers to customize the watch system as highly as mobile phones for a long time, but uses its designated native interface. Regardless of whether the watch screen is square or round, users have to face almost the same experience, and must be connected to the phone with the Wear app outside of the manufacturer’s app. The reason why the Android camp can develop into the largest camp in the mobile phone market is that the open system customization permissions give various manufacturers room to play their abilities, and they can step on the shoulders of Android’s giants to provide more advanced performance at the same time. The closed and conservative watch has restricted the ideas of all manufacturers in the past few years. As long as Google does not update, it will not be able to make more progress. Children’s watches led by Xiaotiancai can be regarded as a “mirror mirror” in this direction. Most high-end children’s watches use similar chips and hardware specifications to Wear watches, but these manufacturers choose to customize their watch experience from Android. So with positioning, children’s social interaction, watch taking pictures, etc., it is enough to cut the function of children and parents, and the sales are so high that it can even be among the best in the market report. Wear OS cannot use Google services in China, and the localization experience is quite awkward, but it has become a “test ground” for leveraging the open customization of the platform. Products such as Mi Watch and OPPO Watch add interface designs and functions with their own brand characteristics on the basis of the original functions. The differentiation and advantages and disadvantages of the products are not limited to the appearance of the watch, but also complement the unfinished work upstream. Obviously, with the announcement of the opening of custom permissions on the Wear platform, various manufacturers can highly customize the experience, making the collaboration of watches and mobile phones more in-depth, and a turning point may be in sight. I haven’t seen a “leader brother” so far In addition to the system customization rights, the cooperation model between Google and manufacturers on the watch system is also quite different from that of mobile phones. It has never personally built a watch product in the past seven years . In the mobile phone and tablet market, the Nexus and Pixel branded mobile phones and tablets, which were originally positioned for developers to use phones and then turned to the high-end market, have always been the most talked about Google products, and they also have technical representations. Just when we thought that smartwatches are quite special, Google officially announced the acquisition of Fitbit, a wearable device company that has never had Android Wear or Wear OS products, but its smart watches and smart bracelets have a large share of overseas . Then it was silent. In the past two years, Wear OS has rarely changed, and Fitbit has not launched related products. Until the acquisition was approved at the beginning of this year, this I/O conference announced that Fitbit would use the Wear platform in subsequent products, and Google finally realized that there was such a thing, and the ecological leader began to build products in person. This is also accompanied by a regret: After the formal completion of the acquisition, Fitbit officially announced its withdrawal from the Chinese market. In the past, Fitbit products mostly took the route of fashion, technology, and people-friendly. After joining the Wear camp, can it take the product to the height of Pixel, whether it can be like Pixel’s imaging technology route, system optimization strategy or Microsoft Surface industrial design In that way, launch a better smart watch to guide the whole camp forward? Will be the biggest attraction. Conclusion So far, we have summarized the past and present of Wear, the “new” wearable device platform. We have seen the different attempts of Google and its partner manufacturers in this field, and we have also concluded the reasons why it has always been little voice in the market. Wear may not be successful enough, but in the joint promotion of Google and Samsung, Fitbit will personally build the equipment and open more permissions to third-party manufacturers. In the future, we will be expected to see more results. Is this the path to success for Wear? We don’t yet know the answer, but it needs to go on firmly and continuously.

With the gradual advancement of Huawei’s “renewal of hundreds of machines”, there will be more and more models and equipment adapted to the Hongmeng OS system in the future, and even a lot of honor enthusiasm can be upgraded to experience the Huawei Hongmeng OS system;

However, according to the well-known big V, Huawei Hongmeng OS system leader Wang Chenglu officially stated: “The installed capacity of the Hongmeng OS system this year is 360 million units, and the installed capacity of the Hongmeng OS system in the following year is 1.23 billion units.” At the same time this year. More than 1.2 million developers will join the Hongmeng OS system ecosystem, and the development goal for the next year is 10 million developers.

Regarding the development goals of Huawei Hongmeng OS system, it undoubtedly exposed Huawei’s ambitions. However, this “small goal” set by Huawei has once again been questioned by many netizens. Many people have questioned and said that Huawei brags, and even netizens mentioned it. By the time, if Huawei’s current equipment inventory is calculated at 120 million, it is estimated that only 50% of people will choose to upgrade Hongmeng. Can the final installed capacity of Huawei Hongmeng OS system reach 60 million?

In fact, the stock of Huawei’s mobile phone market is far more than 120 million. At the same time, the installed capacity has exceeded the 10 million mark in just one week. It can be seen that the upgrade rate of Huawei Hongmeng OS system is definitely far more than 50%. In a few days, the Honor 30 and v30 have been upset because of the Hongmeng schedules on the Q4 forum, and the Honor 20 and 30 series can apply for the closed beta in a few days. Various signs indicate that the installed capacity of the Huawei Hongmeng OS system can be assured;

Of course, Huawei has indeed done a lot of bullshit in the past, and now it has been realized by Huawei. This is not one or two things. Many things have been proved. After all, Huawei, as the strongest private technology giant in China, is also a hard-working company. , If you want to build the same successful domestic operating system, you have set a very ambitious target of 360 million installed units, which seems difficult to achieve, but in fact, Huawei can fully achieve this small goal, confident Originating from the Hongmeng OS system in many key performance aspects, it has far surpassed the IOS/Android system, and Huawei’s HMS ecological service has also completely secured the third largest ecological throne in the world.

Finally: Dear friends, do you think the Huawei Hongmeng OS system can accomplish this feat? What are your opinions and opinions on this? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area to discuss, and look forward to your wonderful comments!

During the pilot period, users do not have to pay service fees. Funding for implementation comes from funding from the European Commission and support from agencies implementing the pilot plan. It is known that the plan to connect two-wheeled electric vehicles with BRT fast buses in the planned pilot area has been reported to the City People’s Committee by the Hanoi Department of Transport and Communications. After being approved by the city, stakeholders will soon implement this model.

Appropriate measures should be taken to limit the risk from ransomware. Illustration. With this form of attack, hackers often use tricks to fake websites, extract data of agencies and organizations and demand ransom. Cybercriminals carry out cyberattacks according to a concise strategy that is applicable to many industries. An analysis of recent experts shows that, in 2020 alone, the amount of damage related to ransomware attacks has reached billions of dollars. More dangerously, this behavior also targets the government’s information technology systems, causing serious impact. To protect critical data from attacks, government IT systems need to ensure external layers of security, while having the added responsibility of maintaining the infrastructure if an intrusion occurs. offense. According to studies, despite the development and expansion of the scope, the attacker’s methods still have similarities. Most hackers will illegally exploit the lowest-level vulnerabilities first, through some common and easy-to-implement method. Therefore, experts recommend to prevent ransomware from this initial step through some of the following methods. 1. Secure remote access Remote access is a familiar method often used by attackers, especially through unpatched vulnerabilities of information systems. Accordingly, hackers are constantly scanning the internet, looking for ways to exploit these vulnerabilities to perform attacks. To combat vulnerability scanning, organizations should prioritize patching vulnerabilities first. Along with that, to protect the system, experts recommend that organizations identify remote access systems to their systems by looking up IP addresses. If an attack is suspected, users should block public access to remote desktop protocol services (iRemoteDesktop – RDP), a secure shell that encrypts transmission data (Secure Socket Shell – SSH) ) and file transfer protocol (File Transfer Protocol – FTP). Agencies and organizations need to ensure that systems for remote access such as firewalls, VPN gateways, and email gateways are regularly patched, perform scanning for security holes, and deploy multi-factor authentication. Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) for accounts that are authorized for remote access. Hackers take advantage of security holes to attack the network. Illustration. 2. Email security Many ransomware incidents can start with an email sent to a user. This attack method is gradually becoming popular for hackers to perform blackmail. Experts say it’s safer to prevent unsolicited emails in the first place. The email security system acts as a “fence” to protect the strange messages from the internet and private mailboxes in the intranet system. To avoid email threats, users need to make sure email messages are scanned through a filtering system, and check attachments and links for advanced threats. In addition, account holders should audit or block password-protected documents as hackers often use this method to bypass email data scanning. 3. Keep data backups safe The third most common method for ransomware is to identify the target, encrypt the data, and then completely delete the backups. In addition to the data on the network and the data being used directly, the hacker will search all backups and encrypt them, disabling the data to increase the possibility of ransom from the victim. The victim then has a high probability of paying to buy back these encrypted data. Therefore, individuals, agencies and organizations should have backup plans to ensure the safety of all data. 4. Implement a 3-2-1 . Backup Strategy Without the right protections, backups, and archiving, concurrent copies on the same network are vulnerable to hackers. To avoid network-wide attacks, experts have come up with a safe backup measure for users’ data systems. For all important files, users should store 3 copies, including 1 primary backup for daily use and 2 backup copies. In it, the files will be saved on 2 different media environments to reduce the possibility of mass attacks. These copies must be in place so that data can be accessed and restored easily and quickly in the event of a failure. At the same time, users should save 1 copy outside the work network or home network, in case of force majeure situations due to natural disasters, unexpected disasters.

The technological process of sequencing the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome by the new generation sequencing machine PacBio is the result of a scientific project assigned by the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology to the Institute of Biotechnology. (biotechnology) implementation, in order to meet the needs of supporting the handling of the COVID-19 epidemic in Vietnam. Phylogenetic tree of SARS-CoV-2 strains collected in Vietnam until April 1, 2021. The NCBI reference MN908947.3 was also included as a comparison (black), while the SARS-CoV-2 genomes analyzed and provided by the Institute of Biotechnology were included in the comparison (boxed in red). Sequences are colored according to the GISAID classification. The taxonomic tree shows the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 as well as when the strains entered Vietnam one by one. Prof. Dr. Truong Nam Hai – Project leader said that the Institute of Biotechnology has collaborated with the Pasteur Institute in Ho Chi Minh City and the National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology (NIHE) to develop a technical process to sequence the entire SARS virus genome. CoV-2 by PacBio’s long segment sequencing technology, including 6 steps: (1) Culture and extraction of viral RNA. (2) Synthesis of double-stranded cDNA from viral RNA. These two steps were carried out at the Pasteur Institute in HCMC and NIHE in clean room conditions of class III biosafety. (3) Prepare a DNA library for gene sequencing. (4) Sequencing the whole genome of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. (5) De novo assembly of the viral genome. (6) Annotation and analysis of viral genomes. The following four steps were performed at the Institute of Biotechnology in about 48 hours. Also according to Prof. Dr. Truong Nam Hai, in Vietnam, to sequence the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome, domestic units use short-sequencing technology. Then assemble and reference the previous genome. This technology takes a long time to read the complete genome (3-4 days) and there are still errors in reading. “Some other units can sequence with next-generation equipment based on the principle of sequencing short fragments. That is, they sequence short fragments, then assemble these fragments together into long segments. To sequence a genome, and to sequence that, the units must now use the reference sequence that has been solved previously (as before, China was the country that successfully sequenced the strain in Wuhan) After solving the short segments, use the reference sequence to assemble to form the genome of the strain that we are sequencing.This is often a long process, short sequencing is often difficult to do. read the entire genome fully, so sometimes it is necessary to use an additional sequence called sanger sequencing to fully read the genome that we are interested in.Besides, this method also has other advantages. reading errors, so editing it also takes more time “- Professor Truong Nam Hai said. Prof. Dr. Truong Nam Hai also said that the project has sequenced the entire genome of four strains of SARS-CoV-2 virus, with a length of over 29500 nucleotides/genome. The results of genome assembly showed that there were no reading errors or blanks, and the sequencing results achieved 99.99% accuracy. “Currently this is the only device in Vietnam, it doesn’t have to read short paragraphs, but read long ones. Reading short paragraphs only reads 100-200 nucleotides/fragment, then assembles into a full genome. But Long segments can read thousands, tens of thousands of nucleotides/segment, and reading long fragments, when assembled to produce a genome, it is simpler and more accurate, the accuracy is equivalent to 99.99%- ie reading errors are almost nonexistent, assembly is very fast.It takes about 2 days for sequencing, assembly and analysis to complete the genome of a virus “- GS Hai said. With the construction and mastering of PacBio’s long-range genome sequencing technique for SARS-CoV-2 virus, according to scientists’ assessment, it has opened up the possibility of fast and accurate viral genome sequencing. without relying on international reference gene sequences. This allows Vietnamese scientists to sequence new viral pathogens in the future without the need for a reference genome. Genome sequencing data contributes to determining the origin of the virus and the number of sources of infection (F0) in the outbreaks, is a scientific basis and important information in the development of strategies and plans for prevention and control. effective spread of the virus in the community. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ha Quy Quynh – Head of Technology Application and Deployment Department, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology emphasized: “The successful study of the technological process of decoding the SARS-CoV-2 virus gene is contributed to the treatment regimen that we were able to suppress the epidemic, in particular, gene sequencing along with tracing allowed us to determine the source of the virus’s spread – the F0s, from which We have a scientific basis for us to isolate and isolate the number of people involved, and we also have a scientific basis to deploy optimal treatment regimens.” With the mastery of the existing technological process, capacity and conditions, the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology also said that it is ready to cooperate with medical institutions in sequencing the system. genes of SARS-CoV-2 virus on a large scale in urgent cases, in order to effectively serve the prevention of COVID-19 epidemic in Vietnam./.

Customers visit a Huawei store in Shenzhen. (Photo: Reuters) Using its own mobile operating system means Huawei is no longer dependent on Google Android. The US has banned Google from providing technical support for new Huawei phone models and blocked access to the Google Mobile Services developer suite. It is not clear if the Chinese company will introduce a new smartphone at the same time as Harmony, or if Harmony will be updated on models sold on the market. Harmony OS can only partially mitigate the impact of US sanctions on Huawei’s mobile division. The US ban in 2019 also barred Huawei from accessing important US-origin technology, hindering its ability to design its own chips and buy components from outside manufacturers. Once the largest smartphone manufacturer in the world, Huawei currently ranked 6th globally with a market share of 4% in the first quarter. The administration of former US President Donald Trump accused the Chinese telecommunications giant of threatening national security. This week, Huawei founder Nham Chinh Phi urged employees to “dare to lead the world in software”, moving into an area where the US cannot influence. The company needs to attract more software experts from abroad for this effort. Du Lam (According to Reuters)

A Colonia Pipeline fuel station. Photo: Getty Images The US Department of Transportation’s guidance notice emphasizes that this decision is in response to emergency conditions, stemming from the need for immediate transportation of fuel items, to relieve problems related to supply scarcity. Colonial Pipeline on May 9 also said that many of the company’s main operating pipelines are still closed, but some small lines connecting the supply station and distribution point have returned to normal operation. On May 7, Colonial Pipeline was hacked with ransomware, a type of code that locks systems by encrypting data and demands a ransom to restore access. The attack caused Colonia Pipeline to shut down the entire pipeline network. Colonial Pipeline transports gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other refined products from the Gulf of Texas to the densely populated East Coast of the United States through an 8,850-kilometer pipeline, serving 50 million customers. In areas affected by supply disruptions, fuel demand increased by 4% on May 8, prices also increased by more than 4.2%. The attack caused concern among US consumers about the scarcity of gasoline supplies if the problem is not fixed in time.

Colonial Pipeline transports 2.5 million barrels of fuel per day. Photo: Colonial Pipeline According to the BBC, the state of emergency allows fuel to be transported by road. The news agency quoted experts as saying that fuel prices could increase by 2-3% on May 10, but the real impact would be much worse if this situation continued for longer. Many sources confirm that the malicious code attack is caused by a cybercriminal gang called DarkSide, which infiltrated Colonial’s system on May 6 and stole nearly 100GB of data as a “hostage”. After taking over the data, the group of hackers locked this data on some computers and servers, demanded a ransom and warned that if they did not receive the money, they would release the data on the internet. Colonial is working with law enforcement, cybersecurity and the US Department of Energy to restore service. On the evening of May 9, the company announced that although the four main pipelines continued to stop, some smaller lines between the terminals and delivery points were still operating. “Immediately after learning of the attack, Colonial proactively shut down certain systems to stop the threat. These actions temporarily halted all pipeline operations and affected some systems. our information technology system, which we are actively working on restoring,” said Colonial. “We are in the process of restoring service to other pipelines and will bring the entire system back online when we believe it is safe and in full compliance with all federal regulations. “. The DarkSide message appears on the victim’s computer screen. DarkSide isn’t the largest cybercriminal gang in the field, but the incident demonstrates the heightened risk that malware poses to critical U.S. industrial infrastructure, not just businesses. This gang lists all types of stolen data and sends the victim the URL of the “personal leak site”, where the data is pre-loaded waiting for automatic publication, if the company or organization does not. payment before the deadline. DarkSide claims to provide proof of the data obtained, and is ready to delete all such data from the victim’s network. According to Digital Shadows, a London-based cybersecurity company that tracks global cybercrime groups to help businesses limit their risk of being hacked, DarkSide acts like a company.

Colonial Pipeline had to shut down the entire network after a cyber attack. Photo: wsj.com The administration of President Joe Biden said it was making every effort to restore the company’s operations and avoid disruption to supply. Experts say gas prices will not be affected if the company resumes normal operations in the next few days. However, this cyberattack, rated as the worst ever for the US infrastructure system, should be a warning bell for other companies about the risk they will become the next target of similar attacks. According to Colonial Pipeline, the company’s pipeline carries gasoline and other fuels from Texas to the Northeast, providing nearly 45 percent of the fuel for the East Coast of the United States. Although Colonial Pipeline has not revealed who is responsible for the cyber attack, an unnamed person on the team investigating the incident confirmed that the culprit was a hacker group nicknamed Darkside. This group has been spreading ransomware since August 2020 and is classified as one of the most attackable groups. Over the past 3 years, Darkside has become more and more professional and has caused Western countries tens of billions of dollars in losses. Ransomware attacks are malicious code designed to lock down computer systems using encrypted data and demand a ransom to restore access. US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo on May 9 warned US businesses to be wary of ransomware attacks. The female minister affirmed that she would work closely with the Department of Homeland Security to handle the issue, considering this a top priority of the government. Reuters news agency, citing a notice from the White House, said the administration was working to help Colonial Pipeline company resume operations to avoid supply disruptions. According to sources, before activating ransomware, hackers often steal data, which is used to blackmail businesses or distort the truth. Sometimes stolen data is more valuable to hackers than the benefit they get by disrupting business operations. Security experts say the attack is a warning to operators and managers of essential infrastructure in the US such as electricity, water, energy and transportation facilities that have long been built. do not update the method to ensure security against the risk of being attacked. Mr. David Kennedy, a senior security consultant and founder of the security consulting firm TrustedSec, admitted that ransomware attacks have spiraled out of control in the US and are currently under development. is one of the greatest threats facing the United States. However, most American companies lack the ability to prepare for such threats.

According to the Vice , DarkSide’s message does not directly refer to the Colonial Pipeline attack, but is titled “Regarding the Latest News”. The group said its actions were unrelated to politics. The cyber attack on May 7 caused the Colonial Pipeline’s fuel pipeline system to stop working. Photo: Bloomberg. “We are a non-political group, not involved in geopolitics. Don’t tie us to a government or look for other motives… Our aim is to make money, not to cause problems for society,” a DarkSide representative wrote on a website belonging to the dark web. According to the Washington Post , some US officials believe that DarkSide is the hacker group behind the Colonial Pipeline attack. Also in the new statement, DarkSide said it will change the way it works and selects targets. “From today, we will examine and analyze each company that partners want to encrypt to avoid social consequences,” the group wrote. On May 7, Colonial Pipeline announced that it had to disconnect some systems after discovering it was “a victim of a cyber attack”. According to the Business Insider , this move caused more than 8,046 km of fuel pipes and some computer systems of Colonial Pipeline to stop working. In an updated statement on May 8, the company representative confirmed that the software used for the attack was in the form of ransomware, which encrypts files in the system and requires victims to pay if they want to get it. again. The company hired a cybersecurity firm to investigate the severity of the attack. The DarkSide hacker group spoke out after the alleged implementation of a cyber attack against the Colonial Pipeline. Photo: Motherboard. According to information on its website, Colonial Pipeline transports about 45% of all fuel consumed on the East Coast of the United States. On May 9, the company said that while the main pipelines are still closed, some smaller pipelines have been reactivated. In response to the incident, the US Department of Transportation has declared a state of emergency in 17 states and Washington to lift restrictions on carriers and drivers assisting in fuel shortages. The declaration of emergency will be in effect until the end of the state of affairs, or until 23:59 on June 8 (local time). After the Colonial Pipeline incident, gasoline prices in the US increased more than 3% to $2,217 per gallon – the highest price since May 2018. Experts warn that the price of gas raw materials may increase further if Colonial Pipeline does not reopen the pipeline in the next few days. How did the FBI hack the suspect’s iPhone? Cellebrite has invented a phone-cracking technology that makes it easier for the FBI to investigate.

Colonial Pipeline’s Dorsey hub in Maryland, USA. Photo: Reuters The difficulty in fuel supply has raised concerns that gasoline prices at pumping stations will escalate during the peak summer travel season. Colonial Pipeline said the company is trying to resume operations this weekend after its fuel pipeline system was paralyzed since May 7 after being hit by a cyber attack. The shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline’s fuel pipeline system shut down nearly half of the US East Coast’s fuel supply. The US Energy Administration on May 10 called for mandatory cybersecurity standards for fuel pipeline operators and operators. “Incentivizing the voluntary application of standards to pipelines is inadequate,” said US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Chairman Richard Glick. The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has accused a cybercriminal group called “DarkSide” of causing a ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline. Reuters news agency quoted cybersecurity experts as saying that DarkSide is based in Russia or Eastern Europe, so the gang usually avoids targeting computers that use the languages ​​of the former Soviet republics. However, US President Joe Biden on May 10 expressed he did not believe that the Russian government was behind the cyber attack on the Colonial Pipeline. “So far there is no evidence based on our intelligence that Russia is involved,” Biden said. A statement titled DarkSide group on May 10 stated: “Our goal is to make money and not create problems for society.” Ransomware attack is a type of malware designed to disable computers by encrypting data and blackmailing victims if they want to regain system access. It is not clear what price the hackers offered for Colonial Pipeline, and the company has not commented on the matter. Fuel demand in the southeastern United States has increased sharply in recent days as consumers fear fuel shortages. The Southeastern region of the United States has long depended mainly on the supply of fuel flowing through the Colonial Pipeline’s pipeline system. The average national gasoline price rose 6 cents to $2.96 a gallon last week, the highest since May 2018 and close to a peak set in 2014, the American Automobile Association said. also warned of speculation about fuel hoarding as the supply continued to decrease. Katina Willey, a resident of Florida on May 10, said she had to go to 5 gas stations to buy gas. “Consumers have to wait in long lines at three of the five gas stations I go to,” added Katina Willey. Many other car owners said they were also looking to refill their gas tanks out of fear that the fuel situation could worsen. If the Colonial Pipeline’s pipeline disruptions continue, fuel suppliers may be able to force fuel transportation by trucks and trains to partially ease the fuel shortage. The US Department of Transportation on May 9 lifted travel restrictions for fuel truck drivers in 17 states affected by supply disruptions.

The aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov. “During the upgrade process, the old-generation surveillance system Rezistor-K42 will be replaced by the digital system Rezistor-E. Currently, Rezistor-E has been equipped on the Navy’s aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya. Indian Army and has proven very effective and reliable,” the Russian Navy said. While operating in India, Indian pilots performed a total of more than 1,500 safe takeoffs and landings on INS Vikramaditya with the help of Rezistor-E. When activated, Rezistor-E has a digital communication and data exchange channel with fighter ships such as MiG-29K, MiG-29KUB and even Su-33 of the Russian Navy. “The Rezistor-E system enhances the ability to exchange communications between the mother ship and the fighter in any weather conditions as well as in the environment of electronic jamming. All information is exchanged with real-time speed, which the current Rezistor-K42 cannot do,” the source said. It is known that Rezistor-E is part of a series of new systems in the program to upgrade the controversial Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier in Russia. According to the latest information from the Russian National Shipbuilding Corporation, the ship will return to service in early 2022 or in the middle of that year. “By the summer of 2022 at the latest, the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier will be docked again and then put into sea trials,” the source said. Despite the announcement of the plan to test the Admiral Kuznetsov, the source did not indicate the progress of repairing and upgrading the ship after the sinking of the floating dock PD-50 in 2018 and the fire at the end of 2019. After a detailed assessment of the damage along with the prospect of upgrading work, as well as a comparison with the needs of the Russian Navy and an estimate of the remaining service life of the ship, the issue of most concern now is Now is the overhaul process should continue? And the Russian Navy has answered when it announced that the Admiral Kuznetsov will be back at sea in 2022. According to a review from the Russian site Regnum, after encountering a fire during repair, the cost of remediating the Admiral Kuznetsov ship has increased sharply and up to the present time is comparable to that of the Admiral Kuznetsov. the money spent to build a new nuclear submarine with full armament. “The cost of repairing the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is very high and actually corresponds to the cost of building a new multi-purpose nuclear submarine, causing mixed opinions about whether to continue the work or not. . But the Russian Navy still needs an aircraft carrier that can serve for a relatively long period of time in order to significantly enhance the potential of the complete combat formation, especially considering the large number of warships that the force is equipped with. This is desirable,” Regum said.

“FXT Token is a junk project” Launched at the end of 2020, FXT’s investment calling activity has many signs of multi-level resemblance. At its official website, FXT Token claims to be a “comprehensive financial solution that allows users to control their assets. A platform for providers and avails of financial services in cryptocurrency in when circumventing cross-border regulatory restrictions”. Post by Kieu Minh Tuan on personal Facebook. Do Phuong Quynh, a financial expert from Ant Group, Shanghai, China, said that FXT is “a junk project, the information in the White Paper is completely unhelpful. The individuals who run the project are not clear.” Quynh said. FXT is used as a fiat currency used for Lio****’s project. This project acts as a forex trading platform combined with binary options. This form of binary trading has long been warned as a type of multi-level combination gambling. Phuong Quynh assessed that FXT Token works in the same scenario as Wefinex’s WIN and Bitconnect’s BCC. “The project hits people’s ignorance and greed, by building a binary options platform, taking advantage of the reputation of the Forex trading market to trick investors into participating. Investors are promised. promise to pay interest every day, instead of planning to build a trading strategy like real traders,” added Quynh. Instead of having to play on their own, investors in Lio**** are guaranteed to pay interest daily. The total profit for the whole year of this project is up to 2.3 times the original capital. In early 2021, many people lost money when Lio**** stopped working, not allowing money to be withdrawn from the account. “FXT builds systems following the classic ponzi model to pay F1 and F2 players with the aim of enticing more people to join the system. Investors who do not have a background in finance often consider it This project is like a solution to help them earn money without labor”, Ms. Quynh warned. Sharing the same opinion, Mr. N. T, a representative of a blockchain incubator investment fund, said that FXT Token is associated with an unsustainable business model, mainly hitting greed. He said there are two types of people who will invest in FXT. “First, investors are ignorant of the mechanics and nature of the cryptocurrency market and forex investment. They are easily attracted by things that sound new, the stories are made up sounding. logic, terms that they are unlikely to understand, such as ‘technology 4.0’. This number may account for 80-90%,” said Mr. T. T. The second group of people listed by expert N. T are investors who understand the nature of these scam models, but think they can control the risks themselves. “They think they are quick, can invest early, withdraw early. But they themselves can’t control their greed later on. This number accounts for about 10-20%,” added Mr. T. The FXT coin is said to be directly related to the Lio**** multi-level project. Photo: VTV. FXT Token is only listed on small, less reputable exchanges like Bilaxy, FatBTC. In addition, the head office of the project is located in Vanuatu, the eastern island of Australia. The recommended company size is 51-200 employees. However, on Linkedin, there is only information of 4 profiles, including an individual who is Vietnamese. “To solve the biggest fear of investors is not being able to withdraw money, FXT has listed FXT Token on specialized exchanges or called ‘junk’ exchanges. In fact, these exchanges have no liquidity. , the value is manipulated, whether it can be sold or not is another story. Many investors are also deceived by the term ‘international exchange'”, said Mr. T. Sharing information about the listing standards of the world’s crypto exchanges today, Mr. T said that this standard is getting lower and lower, especially in less-known exchanges. “Currently, there are hundreds of exchanges. These exchanges want to ‘make a living’ also through coin listing. The less reputable the exchange, the lower the listing standard. They are willing to do everything for the money.” Mr T said. Expert N. T warns users if they lose money when trading on these exchanges, if they lose money, they are not protected by any party. ”A part of artists are aiding scams” Nearly a day after public opinion and crypto experts voiced the possibility of FXT Token’s fraud, Vietnamese artists who posted ads for this coin remained silent, with no statement to correct the incident. . “These days are crazy, people can teach each other things that are not their expertise. A part of the artist world is no longer aware of how dangerous their influence can be. to the people,” commented Mr. Phan Dung Khanh. Posts promoting cryptocurrencies by many famous people in Vietnam. Vietnamese artists should only do things related to entertainment, stay away from industries that are not well understood. “The fact that the official press channels warn of the possibility of fraud of dirty financial projects shows an attempt to clean up the national financial system. However, the artists defiantly ignored the scene. This is also an act of abetting fraud, disregarding the people and the law,” Quynh said.

Raising pigs in a closed cold barn is a new direction in livestock development In 2019, according to professional statistics, Thap Muoi had nearly 10,000 pigs of 406 households destroyed due to African swine fever. Like other pig-raising households, Ms. Luong Thanh Huong’s farm of nearly 500 pigs in Hamlet 3, Tan Kieu Commune also destroyed 164 pigs, it is worth mentioning that in the same place, but the cages are raised in the traditional form. disease, and the cage in the form of a closed cold barn (just a few meters away) was completely unaffected. Ms. Huong said that last year, due to the African cholera epidemic, her traditional farm was also affected by the disease and had to be destroyed a lot, but in the form of a closed cold barn, she was not affected. rebuilt the barn, raising all in the form of cold barns. Raised in this form, pigs grow quickly, reduce a lot of costs and are consumed at a higher price than the market. The closed cold barn system is divided into 3 areas including: food processing area, pig raising area and biogas cellar complex to treat manure and wastewater. This is a modern farm with full equipment such as water cooling system, exhaust fan, automatic feeding and drinking trough, automatic temperature control system inside… Model of the barn. closed cold, the temperature is always stable, the pigs are less tired due to the influence of the hot sun, helping the pigs to exercise well, eat well and grow stably, less effort to take care and clean pigs should be consumed with price is higher than the market. Therefore, there are many breeding households coming to learn the model of livestock by a closed cold barn system. Also a large pig breeder, Ms. Nguyen Thi My Em from Hamlet 4, Tan Kieu Commune is intending to rebuild the barn in the form of a cold-closed barn, but is still facing financial difficulties. Raising pigs in a closed cold barn system is a new direction in livestock development today, but the initial investment is relatively large. Mr. Nguyen Hong Sang – Deputy Head of Technical Training and Technology Transfer Department, Thap Muoi Agricultural Service Center said: “Effectiveness when raising livestock in the form of closed cold cages is clear, but the common difficulties of farmers are obvious. raising livestock in the district is the source of capital, because raising according to this model requires relatively large capital. Dong Thap also has policies to support the development of household livestock production, but it is difficult for people to access this capital due to the habit of small-scale livestock production, which the policy is bound to be on a large enough scale, depending on the type of livestock. but have different regulations, must link consumption, environmental protection issues… so it is difficult for people to access”. In order to keep livestock from being affected by the epidemic, ensure environmental hygiene, safety and efficiency, in the coming time, Thap Muoi needs to strengthen the propaganda to change the practice of small and fragmented livestock to form of farm farming, concentrated, self-contained, sustainable livestock production.

Illustration. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn The attack resulted in higher gas prices, causing drivers to worry about shortages, while Colonial Pipeline Co. is working to restart the fuel line. However, the price of gasoline sold at pumping stations is higher and the possibility of fuel supply shortage is inevitable. After all, it is only temporary and its effects will be fleeting. But there’s a bigger problem: this has to do with America’s energy infrastructure, exactly how secure is its cybersecurity infrastructure? Experts soon said: The team that carried out this attack consisted of seasoned hackers. Later, a ransomware group called DarkSide claimed responsibility for the attack, and the FBI also pointed to this group as the culprit. Here’s what DarkSide said in its statement: “We are apolitical, we do not engage in geopolitics, do not need to tie us to a defined government, and seek our motives. . Our goal is to make money, and not create any other problems for society. Starting today, we’re introducing censorship and vetting of each company that our partners want to encrypt to avoid future social consequences.” The statement was clearly intended to address allegations made that Russia was behind the attack, but even the White House was careful not to point the finger at Moscow. President Biden said there was no evidence that they were involved in the attack. That’s related to geopolitical motives, but the statement also suggests that DarkSide and its partners won’t stop, even if they don’t intentionally cause problems. “Colonial may be at risk of leaking consignor confidential data,” said Vicki Knott, CEO of CruxOCM, a provider of control room operations services to the oil and gas industry. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn

DHD manages and operates 4 hydropower plants (Da Nhim, Song Pha, Ham Thuan, Da Mi) are scattered in Ninh Thuan and Binh Thuan provinces, but the company’s headquarters is in Lam Dong province. Therefore, the management and operation of production and business meet certain difficulties and limitations. In 2012, DHD has researched and built OCC and put it into operation since December 2013 (for the Ham Thuan – Da Mi factory cluster) and from March 2014 for the Da Nhim hydropower plant cluster. – Song Pha. Each operation shift of DHD now only needs 2-3 people After more than 7 years of official operation, up to now, OCC has been operating stably, The transmission system , communication systems, data collection systems all operate reliably and effectively, without problems caused by subjective matters. All operations performed at OCC are timely and accurate as required by the National Dispatch and Regional Dispatch. Putting the OCC into operation has basically met the requirements of the Company’s development strategy in the centralized management model, promoting the efficiency of management and operation of electricity production. OCC has synthesized and provided fully and promptly information about plant equipment, hydrological situation in reservoir basins and related data for analysis and evaluation of production results. Export – trade, thereby setting up a reasonable price offer for power plants, effectively participating in the competitive power generation market. In addition, thanks to OCC, the Company has saved telecommunications channel rental costs by reducing transmission channels from 20 channels to only 5 channels. Mr. Do Minh Loc – Deputy General Director of DHD, said that with OCC, each shift on duty of the Company only needs to arrange the Chief of the Center’s operation shift and 01 operator, to command and operate factories . Currently, the Company continues to maintain the operation shift at the factories, each on-site operation shift is arranged from 2 to 3 people / 1 shift, monitoring, support, supervision and manipulation. devices in place. The arrangement and arrangement to increase the operating force in place will continue to be considered and adjusted in the coming time to suit the actual requirements. Will replicate the model According to leaders of DHD, the most difficult in building models is the human factor. To commissioning OCC system in December 2013, the Company cooperated with the National Load Dispatch Center (A0), organized training courses and accredited 5 heads of operation shift at company level to be eligible for command. operation and troubleshooting of power plants Da Nhim – Song Pha and Ham Thuan – Da Mi at OCC. At the same time, the procedure for operation and handling of equipment problems has been issued at Da Nhim, Song Pha, Ham Thuan, Da Mi factories and OCC equipment systems. The Company also cooperated with A0 to develop and issue the operational coordination process between A0 and the Company, in which agreed on the regulation of dispatching, mobilizing and coordinating operation, and troubleshooting of equipment at the power plants in the Company. Up to now, DHD’s human resources have been able to ensure efficient and stable operation of the OCC remote control system. With the advantages of existing human resources, in the coming time, the Company will continue to increase the application of digital transformation with advanced scientific and technological achievements into technical management, maintenance, and maintenance. equipment level. At the same time, will completely automate Song Pha Hydropower Plant; building unmanned model at Da Mi Solar Power Plant.

The Colonia company had to shut down the fuel pipeline after a cyber attack. Photo: AP. Leading American fuel pipeline company Colonial shut down its entire network that supplies nearly half of the fuel to the US East Coast, following a May 8 ransomware ransomware attack. Every day, the Colonial company ships 2.5 million barrels of gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other products through a 850-kilometer pipeline connecting the eastern and southern coasts of the United States. The company has shut down systems to stop the threat after learning about the attack. According to sources, hackers are most likely a highly professional cybercrime group. And the malware used in the attack is ransomware. Ransomware is a type of malware designed to lock systems by encrypting data and taps money to regain access. This malware has become popular in the past 5 years. The Colonial Company has invited a third-party cybersecurity company to conduct an investigation and contacted law enforcement and other federal agencies to initiate an investigation. Colonial provided no further details or said how long their fuel lines would be closed. “Cyber ​​vulnerabilities have become a systemic issue,” said Ms. Algirde Pipikaite, Head of Network Strategies at the World Economic Forum’s Cyber ​​Security Center. Without measures to protect cybersecurity, attacks are occurring more often on industrial systems such as oil and gas pipelines or water treatment plants. In 2017, Colonial shut down its gas distillation and production lines during Hurricane Harvey that hit the Gulf Coast. That contributes to tight supply and price increases in gasoline in the US.

Colonial Pipeline America’s largest fuel pipeline system was attacked by network, has not yet assessed the damage. (Source: Freightwaves) To deal with the incident, the company had to close the entire network. Colonial Pipeline said the attack “suspended all pipeline operations and affected some of our IT systems”. Sources in cybersecurity revealed that the malware used in the Colonial Pipeline attack was ransomware – a type of malware designed to block systems with how to encrypt data and request a ransom payment to restore access. The Colonial transports gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other refined products from the Gulf of Texas to the populous US East Coast via a 8,850 km pipeline, serving 50 million customers. Oil analyst Andy Lipow said that the impact of the attack on supply and fuel prices will depend on how long the pipeline is down. If the line stops working for a day or two, the impact will be minor. However, if the pipeline is forced to shut down for 5 or 6, shortages or price increases will occur, especially in the area stretching from Alabama to Washington DC. (According to AFP, Reuters)

State treasury officer in Nam Sach – Hai Duong is in control of the budget capital payment documents To prevent this situation and to avoid state budget loss, the State Treasury is promoting the management of digital certificates in electronic transactions. Strictly obey the management of digital certificates Implement reform of administrative procedures in the field of State Treasury (State Treasury) in accordance with the direction of the Government and the Ministry of Finance, in addition to focusing on implementing Decree 11/2020 / ND-CP of Government regulations on administrative procedures in the field of the State Treasury and the State Treasury have promoted the application of information technology in transactions with budget spending units (SDNS) by online public services (public services). Up to now, the State Treasury’s payment service system has completed connecting 100% of the SDNS units that are required to conduct transactions via telecom service. This has created many advantages for the management units and SDNS because transactions are done quickly, transparently, safely, economically and efficiently. In the coming time, the State Treasury will soon improve many functions and utilities on public service, both creating more favorable conditions for management units and SDNS, and moving towards digitizing treasury in all professional activities. However, in the period of the 4.0 technology revolution which is strongly developing, besides the outstanding advantages, there are still many potential risks and high risks such as information “hacking” if the security is not guaranteed. said. Moreover, the risk often occurs when SDNS units do not strictly manage digital certificates, digital signatures, CFS program accounts. For example, many account holders (usually the heads of the SDNS unit), because of work, do not have time, so they always deliver pin codes, digital certificates, digital signatures to the chief accountant or representative ( authorization is not allowed). Notably, many account holders who are not familiar with computers should hand over all digital certificates and pin codes to others in contravention of regulations, or ask someone else to use their digital certificates to sign them for payment transactions in financial activities. In addition, there are also cases where, subjectively, account holders disclose information about their pin codes, fail to maintain digital certificates in accordance with regulations, especially regularly install and plug digital certificates on their personal computers. exiting the public service service program after finishing the job … Taking advantage of this loophole, bad objects have conditions to try to misappropriate the fund, causing loss of money from the state budget. Synthesizing from reality over many years, there have been many cases of money and state property loss of management units and SDNS from the authorization and authorization of the use of digital certificates, digital signatures and passwords. not in accordance with the law in electronic transactions. In order to prevent risks in the management of state budget funds, the State Treasury sent an official dispatch to the local State Treasury units to request the management units and SDNS to fulfill their assigned tasks and functions. and work position. At the same time, thoroughly grasp the contingent of cadres, civil servants and public employees who are specialized in the State budget accounting to perform their functions and powers, strictly comply with the accounting process and budget expenditure from the state budget. In addition, the State Treasury also requires heads of SDNS units to pay attention and carefully consider the process of comparing and confirming monthly account balances with the State Treasury. If detecting the unreasonability, it is necessary to promptly contact the State Treasury where the transaction is conducted for specific consideration. At the same time, the account holders must be fully responsible for the information registered for transactions on the cash register system of the State Treasury, especially the information about email notification received from the treasury. The whole state treasury system took part Determined to build a healthy, transparent, economical, efficient national finance, especially, not letting the state budget be lost, the entire State Treasury system has joined the “risk warning”. Ms. Tran Thi Khanh Trinh, Head of State Accounting Department, Ninh Thuan State Treasury, said that the IT service level 4 has been deployed to 100% of compulsory SDNS units in the area. With 757 units of SDNS and payment vouchers per month of over 10,000 transactions, the peak month of nearly 20,000 transactions has contributed to strong administrative reform, creating favorable conditions for SDNS unit, reducing travel time. and reduce operating costs for entities in transactions with the Treasury. However, along with the advantages, the risk of risks also increases. Therefore, Ninh Thuan State Treasury has sent an official dispatch on strengthening the management of digital certificates in transactions with the State Treasury to send to SDNS units and investors. In this dispatch, Ninh Thuan State Treasury has recommended heads of SDNS units to manage and use digital signatures, digital certificates, and the issued CFS program account to transact and send documents of state budget expenditure control via the system. The State Treasury’s payment services ensure strict compliance with current regulations. Heads of SDNS units, investors absolutely do not let their digital signature handover, digital certificates, or CFS program accounts be issued to others for management, revealing information about digital certificates. and login accounts (login codes and passwords) of the members of the unit on the cash register system of the State Treasury. SDNS units, investors are fully responsible for the information registered for transactions on the State Treasury’s transaction service system (especially the information about email notification received from the system).
