IOT DEVICE SECURITY: WE’RE ALL RESPONSIBLE

March 5, 2019 | 208 views

IoT has some inherent vulnerabilities that need addressing. The solution is up to IoT developers and manufacturers, but until a security standard is in place, IoT users must be aware of what they can do to protect themselves. As a relatively new technology, the Internet of Things (IoT) is making such an impact on our world, it’s become known as the third digital revolution. It comes as no surprise, considering all the possible uses of IoT and how easy it is to start relying on connected devices.

The advances of AI in healthcare

Article | August 8, 2022

With the Government investing £250 million into the project, the Lab will consider how to use AI for the benefit of patients – whether this be the deployment of existing AI methods, the development of new technologies or the testing of their safety. Amongst other things, the initiative will aim to deliver earlier diagnoses of cancer. It is estimated that in excess of 50,000 extra patients could see their cancer being detected at an early stage, thus boosting survival rates. More specifically, a study has shown that AI is quicker in identifying brain tumour tissue than a pathologist.This would have a positive knock-on effect in other areas, such as enabling money to be saved (that otherwise would have been spent on further treatment) and reducing the workload of staff (at a time when there is a crisis in NHS workforce numbers).
