Technology, Data and New Models for Sustainably Managing Ocean Resources

whitePaper | January 31, 2020

We are in the middle of an explosion in new data on the ocean, creating enormous potential for advances in our understanding and stewardship of ocean resources. An exponential increase in the number and variety of ocean observing systems and other new data sources has created the prospect of a digital ocean ecosystem. Advances in processing techniques and visualisation are rapidly expanding our ability to extract information from those data, and are enabling a wide array of tools to provide real-time information in actionable form to decision-makers, such as policymakers, resource managers, resource users, consumers and citizens.

SECURING THE SOFTWARE SUPPLY CHAIN

whitePaper | August 15, 2022

Cyberattacks are conducted via cyberspace and target an enterprise’s use of cyberspace for the purpose of disrupting, disabling, destroying, or maliciously controlling a computing environment or infrastructure; or destroying the integrity of the data or stealing controlled information.1 Recent cyberattacks such as those executed against SolarWinds and its customers, and exploits that take advantage of vulnerabilities such as Log4j, highlight weaknesses within software supply chains, an issue which spans both commercial and open source software and impacts both private and Government enterprises. Accordingly, there is an increased need for software supply chain security awareness and cognizance regarding the potential for software supply chains to be weaponized by nation state adversaries using similar tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)

The Autonomous Logistics Hub of the Future

whitePaper | January 5, 2023

The logistics industry is currently facing challenges from multiple sides: on the one hand, the demand for logistics is steadily increasing due to e-commerce and globalization, but on the other hand, there is a lack of skilled workers in the form of truck drivers who can handle this demand. In Europe alone, over 380,000 truck driver job postings were unfilled in 2021.1 This significant shortage is exacerbated by increasing labor expenses, which aggravate the cost pressure already caused by rising fuel prices

The “Multi-Multi” Supply Chain Problem

whitePaper | May 13, 2022

Not only are we in state of constant disruption, but disruptions are here to stay. The cause of disruption may change; yesterday it may have been global health, today it may be political unrest, while tomorrow it may be trade related. Issues like inflation, material shortages, high performance pressures from customers, and capacity constraints will never be challenges businesses can overcome on their own – at least not complex or global businesses. It is an ecosystem problem, as issues can originate beyond the scope of one’s own internal network of factories, warehouses, and distribution centers.
