SUMMARY:Strategic responses to cyber-enabled hybrid threats in Space
DESCRIPTION:This talk organised by StrathCyber explores the strategic responses of the United States\, China\, Russia\, and the United Kingdom to hybrid threats targeting space-based military assets\, highlighting the variations in their approaches. Using realism as a theoretical framework\, the study focuses on the core themes of power projection\, alliance balancing\, and self-help in an anarchic international system to explain these differences. Hybrid threats such as cyberattacks\, co-orbital satellite interference\, and signal jamming undermine space security\, forcing states to adapt their strategies to secure vital assets and maintain dominance in this contested domain. \nFind out more and register

SUMMARY:Digital Inclusion in Later Life: Exploring the Digital Literacy Needs of Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted that Dr Dharini Balasubramanium will be speaking at our March Education Seminar. \nDigital inclusion in later life is a global challenge. As public services and resources become increasingly digitalised\, many older adults struggle to adapt to this digital-by-default world. Population ageing\, fast-changing technologies and a lack of systematic and age-appropriate support exacerbate this problem. This talk will discuss ongoing research in the School of Computer Science at the University of St Andrews in understanding the barriers and enablers to digital technology adoption by older adults. We will explore the nature of the digital divide\, the initiatives by governments and NGOs to tackle the challenge\, open issues\, insights from the research already conducted\, and avenues for future work\, with a particular focus on improving the digital literacy and confidence of older adults. We will also briefly consider the implications of the findings for Universities\, particularly in supporting adult returners and lifelong learners. \nDharini is a Senior Lecturer in Computer Science at the University of St Andrews. Her research interests are broadly in the area of software engineering\, including software architecture\, uncertainty in software systems\, software ethics\, digital inclusion in later life\, and computer science education. Dharini is currently the Director of Admissions\, Recruitment and Outreach for the School of Computer Science. \nTickets are free to any Computer Science staff member or student at a Scottish Institution. \nRegister for the Digital Inclusion in Later Life event
