MHI Thermal Systems Receives 2024 Agency for Natural Resources and Energy Commissioner’s Award from ECCJ for TEJ35AM Electric-Driven Transport Refrigeration Unit Integrated with Isuzu’s ELF EV
TOKYO, Jan 30, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Thermal Systems, Ltd. (MHI Thermal Systems), a part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group, has received the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy Commissioner's Award (Transportation Field) in the Best Products and Business Models category of the Energy Conservation Center, Japan's (ECCJ) 2024 Energy Conservation Grand Prize Awards, for its TEJ35AM electric-driven transport refrigeration unit(1) integrated with the ELF EV, an electric truck made by Isuzu Motors Ltd. (Isuzu). The award was shared by MHI Thermal Systems and Isuzu. The winning unit was cited for its ability to maintain a constant temperature inside the cargo room, enabled by sharing of battery power by TEJ35AM and ELF EV, and for its simultaneous contributions to CO2 reduction and energy savings. The awards ceremony was held in Tokyo on January 29.ECCJ's Energy Conservation Grand Prize Awards are presented in recognition of outstanding energy-saving initiatives at businesses or workplaces that should serve as model examples for other companies, or superior energy-saving products or business models. The awards program was created to contribute to the formation of an energy-saving society by spreading energy conservation awareness throughout Japan and promoting the adoption of energy-saving products. Previously, in 2019 MHI Thermal Systems received ECCJ's Energy Conservation Grand Prize in the Transportation Field for its TE20/TE30 Series of electric-driven refrigeration units(2).In the 2024 award-winning combination, the TEJ35AM and ELF EV achieves coordinated power control that gives priority to temperature control in the cargo room. The TEJ35AM operates at maximum capacity immediately after engine startup, enabling quick temperature control; and once the target temperature is reached, it operates with outstanding efficiency. Together these features realize waste-free operation using limited power. Combination with the ELF EV enables a 21.3% reduction in annual average energy consumption, 46.1% reduction in annual average CO2 emissions, and 42.2% reduction in annual energy costs compared to conventional refrigeration trucks(3), thereby contributing to decarbonization advancement and energy cost reduction.The TEJ35AM was launched in 2023 as an electric-driven transport refrigeration unit with a heat-pump heating function exclusively for EVs. Adoption of a heat-pump heating system enables simultaneous heating and cooling operations with outstanding efficiency. This duality enables the TEJ35AM to accommodate diverse transport modes, including simultaneous transport of products requiring multiple temperatures, to meet the needs of convenience stores and other users. Furthermore, because the refrigeration unit can be operated under all vehicle operating conditions - running, idling, parked or charging - the temperature inside the cargo room can be kept stable at all times, easing the need for the driver to continually check the cargo room temperature and battery power level.With receipt of the latest ECCJ award, MHI Thermal Systems renews its determination to develop technologies and products that will contribute to further CO2 reductions and energy savings. Also, going forward the Company will apply its integrated technological strengths derived from synergies realized from the breadth of its business areas - not only in the refrigerated transport field but also in thermal engineering targeting enhanced energy efficiency in plants of all kinds, large-scale refrigeration systems for temperature control in large spatial areas, air-conditioning products for creating diverse comfortable spaces, automotive air-conditioners, etc. - to provide optimal thermal solutions that respond to diverse customer needs.(1) For further information see the following press release: www.mhi.com/news/23033002.html(2) For further information see the following press release: www.mhi.com/news/200129.html(3) Figures are based on simulations comparing with earlier refrigeration trucks operated under delivery conditions assumed by MHI Thermal Systems and Isuzu.About MHI GroupMitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group is one of the world’s leading industrial groups, spanning energy, smart infrastructure, industrial machinery, aerospace and defense.

(SeaPRwire) - DeepSeek R1 的推出震驚了華爾街和矽谷，讓投資者感到不安，也給科技領袖留下了深刻印象。但在所有討論中，許多人忽略了這款新人工智能運作方式的一個關鍵細節——這一細微差別讓研究人員擔心人類控制尖端人工智能系統的能力。 這一切都要歸咎於 DeepSeek R1 的訓練方法上的創新——這種創新導致模型早期版本出現了令人驚訝的行為，研究人員在其發布的論文中描述了這些行為。 在測試過程中，研究人員注意到，該模型會在解決問題時自發地在英語和中文之間切換。當他們強制模型堅持使用一種語言時，這樣使用戶更容易理解，他們發現系統解決相同問題的能力會下降。 這一發現讓一些人工智能安全研究人員敲響了警鐘。目前，最具能力的人工智能系統是用人類可讀的語言「思考」，在得出結論之前寫出它們的推理過程。這對安全團隊來說是一個福音，他們最有效的安全措施包括監控模型所謂的「思想鏈」，尋找危險行為的跡象。但 DeepSeek 的結果增加了即將出現脫鉤的可能性：一種情況是，通過完全擺脫人類語言的約束，可以獲得新的 AI 能力。 可以肯定的是，DeepSeek 的語言切換本身並不足以引起警報。相反，讓研究人員擔憂的是造成這種現象的新的創新。DeepSeek 的論文描述了一種新穎的訓練方法，其中模型僅根據答案是否正確來獎勵，而不管其思考過程對人類來說是否易於理解。令人擔憂的是，這種基於激勵的方法最終可能導致人工智能系統發展出完全不可理解的推理方式，甚至創造出自己的非人類語言，如果這樣做被證明更有效的話。 如果人工智能行業朝這個方向發展——通過放棄可讀性來尋求更強大的系統——「這將奪走原本看起來可能是人工智能安全的一項簡單勝利」，Anthropic 公司（一家致力於將人工智能與人類偏好「對齊」的人工智能公司）研究部門負責人 Sam Bowman 表示。「我們將失去原本可能擁有的監控它們的能力。」 無需語言的思考 人工智能創造自己的外星語言並不像聽起來那麼荒謬。 去年 12 月，Meta 的研究人員着手驗證這樣一個假設：人類語言並不是進行推理的最佳格式——大型語言模型（或 LLMs，這是 OpenAI 的 ChatGPT 和 DeepSeek 的 R1 的基礎人工智能系統）如果不受這種語言約束的限制，可能會更有效率和準確地進行推理。 Meta 的研究人員繼續設計了一個模型，它不是用文字進行推理，而是使用一系列數字來表示其神經網絡中最近的模式——本質上是其內部推理引擎。他們發現，這個模型開始產生他們所謂的「連續思想」——本質上是同時編碼多個潛在推理路徑的數字。這些數字對人類來說完全不透明且難以理解。但他們發現，這種策略在模型中創造了「新興的高級推理模式」。與使用人類語言進行推理的模型相比，這些模式在一些邏輯推理任務中取得了更高的分數。 儘管 Meta 的研究項目與 DeepSeek 的項目大相徑庭，但其研究結果與中國的研究在一個關鍵方面不謀而合。 根據 Gladstone AI（一家就人工智能安全挑戰向美國政府提供建議的公司）的首席執行官 Jeremie Harris 的說法，DeepSeek 和 Meta 都表明，「人類的可讀性會對人工智能系統的性能造成損害」。Harris 說：「從極限上來說，沒有理由 [人工智能的思考過程] 應該看起來像人類可讀的。」 這種可能性讓一些安全專家感到擔憂。 Anthropic 安全團隊負責人 Bowman 說：「看來，牆上寫着這樣一種方法：[對於人工智能研究]，你只需優化你能得到的最佳推理。」「我預計人們會擴大這項工作。風險是，我們最終會得到這樣的模型：我們無法自信地說我們知道它們想做什麼，它們的價值觀是什麼，或者當我們將它們設置為代理時，它們將如何做出艱難的決定。」 Meta 的研究人員則表示，他們的研發不一定會導致人類被邊緣化。他們在論文中寫道：「理想情況下，大型語言模型應該可以自由地不受任何語言約束地進行推理，然後只有在必要時才將其研究結果翻譯成語言。」（Meta 沒有回應關於該研究可能導致危險方向的置評請求。） 語言的局限性 當然，即使是人類可讀的人工智能推理也並非沒有問題。 當人工智能系統用淺顯易懂的英語解釋它們的思考過程時，它看起來好像它們在忠實地展示它們的工作過程。但一些專家質疑，這些解釋是否真的揭示了人工智能真正做出決策的方式。這就像向政治家詢問某項政策背後的動機——他們可能會想出一個聽起來不錯的解釋，但與真正的決策過程幾乎沒有聯繫。 雖然讓人工智能用人類術語來解釋自身並不完美，但許多研究人員認為，這比另一種選擇更好：讓人工智能發展出我們無法理解的神秘內部語言。科學家們正在研究新的方法，類似於醫生使用腦掃描來研究人類思維的方式。但這些方法仍然很新，還沒有給我們提供可靠的方法來使人工智能系統更安全。 因此，許多研究人員仍然對鼓勵人工智能以人類語言以外的方式進行推理的努力持懷疑態度。 Bowman 說：「如果我們不走這條路，我認為我們在安全方面將處於更好的位置。」「如果我們這樣做了，我們將失去目前看來是我們在一些非常可怕的、尚未解決的對齊問題中最佳的切入點。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。 ```

(SeaPRwire) - 在烏克蘭達成快速和平協議的前景，自唐納·川普當選美國總統以來，已成為最具爭議性的議題之一。烏克蘭總統澤倫斯基堅稱，這樣的協議很難達成，他強調正義的和平比迅速的和平更重要。當然，正義是難以反駁的。然而，在我與同胞的談話中，另一個令人清醒的事實浮現出來：這場戰爭正在將我們掏空。 發現有38%的烏克蘭人願意接受領土讓步以換取和平。但這對我來說似乎是一個出乎意料的保守數字。在基輔的一家診所，我剛認識的一位醫生眼淚汪汪——她的同事們正在離開，她也在考慮離開。在西部的利沃夫，一位按摩師每月都會給我發訊息，詢問戰爭何時結束。來自北部切爾尼戈夫的一位清潔工已經在西班牙重新開始生活。儘管我們國家具有非凡的韌性，但我們面臨的敵人並非僅靠軍事力量就能克服的。西方盟友的慷慨援助，但即使是他們堅定的支持也無法保證我們如此渴望的未來。僅憑軍事手段取得的勝利，雖然鼓舞人心，但也可能不再可及。我們必須問，我們持續的掙扎要付出什麼樣的代價？ 由於戰爭，烏克蘭堅持立即收復其領土並緊抓北約成員資格的前景，但卻正在以其他方式失去其國家，僅在去年——這個數字是2023年的3.3倍。 俄羅斯已將烏克蘭的三分之一變成人間地獄。想像一下這樣的生活：俄羅斯的無人機每天都在獵殺人民，就像在狩獵一樣，就像在我的家鄉赫爾松地區一樣。雖然大約有 赫爾松居民逃離，但許多人仍然留下來——包括我的父母，他們作為醫務工作者，拒絕拋棄他們的社區。這是烏克蘭東部、南部和北部大部分地區的嚴酷現實。一些地區遭受無情的空襲；另一些地區則飽受無人機或炮火襲擊。同時，俄軍繼續在頓巴斯地區緩慢而無情地推進，使第聶伯羅彼得羅夫斯克地區面臨危險。 當我們就正義以及快速和平是否可能進行無休止的辯論時，俄羅斯人正在奪取更多土地，奪取更多生命。 據報導，烏克蘭士兵的死亡人數差異很大，從超過40,000 到至少80,000 不等。 除了這些數字之外，平民每天都在死亡和受苦。聯合國經核實的估計數據顯示，僅在烏克蘭控制的領土上就有超過12,000名平民死亡，而俄羅斯佔領地區的實際數字仍然未知。平民受傷人數達數十萬。僅在2024年，俄軍造成的平民傷亡人數 這還不包括 被強行驅逐的兒童，或繼續從新佔領地區被帶走的兒童。 許多人仍然留在這些戰區，因為他們無處可去。被摧毀的不仅仅是基礎設施——經濟已經崩潰，幾乎不可能找到能養活家庭的工作。對於許多人，尤其是在農村地區，在炮火下堅持下去似乎是唯一的选择。但隨著戰爭的持續，一些人的愛國主義開始動搖，取而代之的是一個單一的、絕望的願望：生存。 是否有西方領導人——唐納·川普或其他領導人——能夠結束這場衝突？我不知道。但我知道，從華盛頓到布魯塞爾，關於停火的討論一直在進行。也許一個不完美的停火，一個可能無法滿足我們對正義的所有要求的停火，是一個必要的步驟。這不是對自滿的呼籲；這是對生存的呼籲。 有些人會說我天真，說普京的軍隊會重建並再次發動攻擊。但即使是暫時的停火也能讓我們加強在入侵前無法建立的防禦工事。在俄羅斯持續的炮擊下，建立穩固的防線幾乎是不可能的。停火將提供一個機會來加強我們的邊界，增強我們的部隊，並為未來可能發生的事情做好準備。如果俄羅斯恢復侵略，至少我們將站在堅實的基礎上，而不是在搖搖欲墜的基礎上。 追求停火並不軟弱。戰爭讓我們認識到簡單答案和美好敘事的危險。為了未來幾代人將承擔今天選擇的後果，我們必須務實。這不是投降的請求，而是承認我們的優勢和局限性的策略。烏克蘭理應擁有超越無休止戰爭的未來。今天的幼稚不是尋求喘息，而是相信在TikTok和Twitter上理想化的無休止的消耗戰能夠以某種方式帶來勝利。 收復我們的領土是一個共同的目標。然而，自2023年反攻以來，我們面臨了一個艱難的事實：烏克蘭可能缺乏立即奪回所有被佔領區的現實機會。最近的損失強調，任何程度的社交媒體支持都無法改變軍事現實。 我來這裡是要挑戰這樣一種觀點，即只有持續戰爭才能拯救烏克蘭。為了抵抗俄羅斯，我們需要的不仅仅是武器。我们需要的是智慧的力量、一個有韌性的民主政體、一個穩定的經濟體，以及直面自身局限的勇氣。事實是，現在，隨著烏克蘭的人才流失、 水平和 ，我們的韌性很脆弱。 每天的消耗戰都在削弱烏克蘭。這不完全是西方的錯；如果我們的盟友不關心，他們就不會在戰爭初期提供如此巨大的支持。但是收復我們的土地需要的不仅仅是蠻力。 停火可以讓烏克蘭重新調整、療傷和重建。我們可以加強我們的民主，恢復我們的經濟，並開始從這場殘酷的入侵中恢復社會的漫長過程。 我敦促我們的盟友、我們的領導人，最重要的是我的烏克蘭同胞們：考慮停火的價值。讓我們接受這條艱難的道路，不是作為投降，而是作為確保烏克蘭未來的一個必要步驟。我們欠我們的國家、那些已經倒下的人以及將繼承我們正在努力保護的烏克蘭的人一個交代。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
末日鐘逼近午夜 “`
(SeaPRwire) - 今天，末日鐘被設定在距離午夜89秒的地方，這是其78年歷史上距離午夜最近的一次。美國、中國和俄羅斯有責任帶領世界走出困境。人類的持續生存取決於世界領導人的立即行動。 由參與曼哈頓計劃並研發首批原子武器的科學家們組成，《原子科學家公報》自1947年以來一直負責設定末日鐘的時間。核武器、氣候變化、生物威脅以及人工智能等新興技術都是對世界頂尖科學家產生重大影響的存在性風險。 將末日鐘設定在距離午夜89秒的地方——比2023年上次調整更近一秒——《公報》正在發出信號，表明我們距離災難性事件近到令人無法接受的地步。我們比以往任何時候都更接近午夜，這表明存在極度危險，並明確警告說，延遲扭轉局勢的每一刻都會增加全球災難的可能性。 世界需要更多而非更少的國際合作來應對這些問題。在2025年，我們衷心希望領導人能夠認識到世界面臨的生存困境，並本著人類最大利益採取大膽行動，以減少核武器、氣候變化以及生物科學的潛在濫用以及各種新興技術帶來的威脅。繼續走我們目前的道路將是危險的。 烏克蘭戰爭隨時可能升級。一次簡單的意外、衝動的決定或誤判都可能將世界推入混亂。而且，這並不是唯一讓專家擔憂的衝突地區。一些沒有核武器的國家目前正在考慮發展自己的武器庫，這破壞了長期以來的不擴散努力，並成倍增加了核戰爭的可能性。同時，核軍備控制進程停滯不前，鑑於目前的危險，核大國之間目前的高層接觸完全不足。 前進的道路並不簡單，但卻很清晰。世界迫切需要領導力、創新和合作。無論我們關注的是……的軍備控制協定，還是……之間最近的停火協議，我們的歷史都向我們表明，對手可以為了共同利益而談判。但世界需要更快地行動。不幸的是，美國退出世界衛生組織和巴黎協定的舉措，是新年伊始令人沮喪的跡象。 這種情況令人深感擔憂，尤其對於一代感覺自己繼承了一個功能障礙和危險日益加劇的世界的新一代年輕人來說更是如此。對許多人來說，未來看起來黯淡無光。無數威脅隱約可見，在日常生活中投下不確定性和絕望的陰影。 根據發表在醫學期刊《柳葉刀》上的一項研究，美國57%的16至25歲年輕人“非常或極度擔心”氣候變化。他們擔心是對的——他們的領導人行動不夠快。據世界氣象組織稱，2024年是有史以來最熱的一年。其他指標，如導致氣候變化的海平面上升和全球溫室氣體排放量繼續加劇，極端天氣和受氣候變化影響的事件襲擊了各大洲。但世界應對氣候變化的意願仍然不足，大多數政府未能制定應對氣候危機所需的有效政策。 關於核風險，研究發現，與老年一代相比，年輕人最不可能相信核威懾是一種“非常有效”的策略。他們也最有可能認為核武器使美國“更不安全”。但美國——以及其他擁有核武器的國家，如俄羅斯和中國——仍在繼續擴大其武器庫，投入數千億美元——這些錢原本可以用於解決世界問題——到可以多次摧毀世界的武器上。 同時，頂尖科學家擔心世界對下一次重大疫情沒有做好準備。新出現的、再次出現的和不斷進化的病原體繼續威脅著社會。禽流感，或高致病性禽流感（HPAI），正在蔓延到牲畜和乳製品中，並出現了新的病例，從而可能引發新的疫情。 這些歷史性挑戰被虛假信息、錯誤信息和陰謀論的傳播所放大，這些信息模糊了事實與虛構之間的界限。即使科學突破席捲全球，科學本身也在失去公眾的信任。例如，人工智能比以往任何時候都更容易讓個人在網際網路上散佈虛假信息，各國正在散佈虛假信息和其他形式的宣傳以破壞其對手的選舉。這種對信息生態系統的破壞損害了公共 discourse，並最終損害了民主。它也獎勵了攻擊科學、侵犯人權和阻礙我們共同應對這些巨大威脅的 demagogues。 但是，我們不能放棄希望，世界可以團結起來，慶祝我們共同的人性。每個人都想為自己的孩子和後代留下更美好的未來。年輕人正在要求解決方案。世界領導人必須應對這一挑戰，否則將加劇絕望和幻滅。 選擇合作而不是競爭的失敗代價只能導致我們的未來毀滅。美國、中國和俄羅斯不必在每個問題上都達成一致，但他們應該在一個關鍵點上達成一致：走向人為的末日對他們的國家利益絲毫沒有好處。他們必須團結起來，共同打算擱置短視的競爭，共同努力實現我們的長期生存。他們必須現在就團結起來，因為每一秒鐘都很重要。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
為何企業不需為資料外洩負責
(SeaPRwire) - 奧克拉荷馬州居民羅納德·艾倫是數十名受害者之一，他們表示，2022年韓國電子公司三星的客戶數據（例如姓名、電子郵件地址和出生日期）被盜後，他們的生活變得更加艱難。 艾倫在收到數據洩露通知後表示，有人企圖以他的名義開戶。一家銀行通知他，他的信用卡信息已在暗網上被發現，暗網是網絡犯罪分子經常買賣個人信息的網絡部分。艾倫說，從那以後，他花了許多時間打電話取消賬戶、爭議費用和更改密碼。他表示，他每周都會花一部分時間檢查他的金融賬戶，以防出現未經授權的活動。 該訴訟聲稱，一系列數據洩露事件表明安全措施鬆懈。但是，追究三星責任的努力卻未能成功。新澤西州地方法院法官克里斯汀·奧赫恩在1月3日的一份裁決中寫道，客戶沒有證明他們是因數據洩露而遭受損害的。奧赫恩認為，人們的信息總是會被盜，無法知道艾倫或其他人的身份是否因數據洩露而受到損害。 三星在法律文件中辯稱，由於社會安全號碼和信用卡號碼等信息在洩露事件中未被盜竊，並且無法得知數據洩露信息是否被用於惡意目的，因此原告沒有理由提起訴訟。「如果原告未能『充分指控』因數據洩露而產生的損害，法院必須駁回數據洩露集體訴訟，」該公司的律師在一項駁回動議中寫道。 隨著人們和公司在網上存儲更多信息，像三星數據洩露這樣的事件變得越來越普遍。根據身份盜竊資源中心 (ITRC) 的一份報告，2024年發生了3158起數據洩露事件，比2021年增加了70%，導致近17億份通知發送給可能受影響的個人。 根據ITRC的數據，2024年發生了六起大型數據洩露事件，受影響的受害者至少有1億人。ITRC表示，如果這些組織使用了多因素身份驗證（一種要求用戶提供多於一種身份驗證方式才能訪問帳戶的安全方法），其中四起洩露事件是可以避免的。參與大型數據洩露事件的公司之一，Optum (聯合健康公司子公司)，在2024年5月的一次國會聽證會上承認了這一點。 每一次數據洩露都會增加其他洩露事件發生的可能性。當黑客竊取個人信息時，他們可以使用這些信息入侵其他公司的系統並發起更多數據洩露事件。這可能是數據洩露事件數量激增的一個可能原因。但許多受損公司卻能逃過懲罰，即使有懲罰也只是輕微的。 儘管上市公司和其他受聯邦政府監管的公司面臨數據洩露的處罰，但根據ITRC的數據，只有約7%的數據洩露事件來自上市公司。沒有任何全國性法律規定其他組織在數據被洩露後應採取的措施。「我們沒有真正的隱私法，也沒有任何統一的最低標準，」ITRC總裁詹姆斯·李說。 當一家公司發現其客戶的數據遭到洩露時，甚至可能不必通知他們這個問題。州法律決定一家公司在未經授權的方訪問其信息時需要做什麼。李說，在大多數州，受損公司可以自行決定是否有損害個人的風險。如果它判斷沒有風險，則不必發出通知。即使他們發出通知，在許多州，公司也會決定通知的內容。它可以拒絕告知客戶信息是如何被洩露的，或者哪些個人信息被盜竊。 當然，向客戶發送通知對他們幫助不大。他們可以凍結他們的信用卡或密切監控他們的賬戶，但他們不會因為信息被洩露而獲得時間補償或退款。為此，他們必須提起訴訟，或者讓其他人代表他們提起訴訟。但李說，在數據洩露後成功起訴公司以獲得經濟補償非常困難。由於攻擊方式如此多樣，幾乎不可能知道哪一次攻擊導致了客戶的問題。 因此，很少有公司能因數據洩露而承擔經濟責任。佛羅里達州甚至通過了一項法律，規定如果公司證明已實施某些安全程序，則不得因數據洩露而被起訴。 然而，安全專家表示，公司可以做一些簡單的事情來保護信息，而許多公司卻沒有這樣做。這些步驟包括使用多因素身份驗證，確保員工經常更改密碼，以及確保與他們合作的供應商和其他公司也採取了適當的措施。 「這是一個循環，之前的洩露事件會導致未來的洩露事件，」安達保險公司網絡解決方案威脅情報團隊的負責人艾倫·庫克斯特拉說。「但我們沒有看到公司採取必要的措施來避免這可能成為他們未來的問題。」 ITRC的李正在期待一項全國性的隱私法，該法將設定公司需要具備的網絡安全防護措施的最低標準，以及在數據被洩露後必須採取的措施。由於黑客不斷變得更聰明，公司需要不斷更改其安全程序以確保信息安全，因此很難制定這些標準。但李說，即使說公司必須採取措施保護客戶的信息，也是朝著正確方向邁出的一大步。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
High-brilliance radiation quickly finds the best composition for half-metal alloys
TSUKUBA, Japan, Jan 28, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Half-metals are unique magnetic compounds that have been attracting interest in the developments of mass-storage technologies. Some of the materials in the family of Heusler alloys were predicted to have a half-metallic nature, but their half-metallic electronic structure varies with their composition ratio and atomic ordered structure.One property, spin polarization, is fundamental to the material’s half-metallic properties. Spin polarization ratio is a physical property that indicates how polarized the number of electrons with spin in the up and down directions is. Because spin polarization is influenced by the elemental composition of the Heusler alloy, it’s important to characterise and optimise the atomic composition of Heusler alloys to achieve the highest spin polarization. But current methods for determining the spin polarization of half-metals are either time-consuming or only provide an indirect measure.Now, a team of researchers from Japan, led by Professor Yuya Sakuraba of the National Institute for Materials Science in Tsukuba, have developed a method to quickly determine the spin polarization of Heusler alloys, using high-brilliance synchrotron radiation. With this approach, they were able to rapidly identify the ideal composition of elements to achieve the highest spin polarisation. Their findings have been published in the journal Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.The Heusler alloy in question was a mix of cobalt, manganese and silicon. The research team created composition-spread thin films of the alloy, varying the proportion of manganese from 10 to 40 percent along the length of the sample.They then bombarded the film with extremely bright radiation at the NanoTerasu synchrotron facility which opened in April 2024. This bombardment revealed that the ideal composition to maximise spin polarization in the alloy was for manganese to make up 27 percent of the alloy’s atomic weight.This experiment marked the first successful application of photoelectron spectroscopy at NanoTerasu facility. The experiment was done in a single day – much faster than existing methods of determining the spin polarization.“The findings address a critical challenge in materials science by drastically reducing the time required to evaluate and optimize spin polarization in half-metallic materials,” Professor Sakuraba says.This study paves the way for wider application of the technique not just to half-metallic materials but a variety of other magnetic and spintronic materials. “The rapid, efficient method presented in this study could significantly impact the development of next-generation technologies, such as high-capacity hard disk drives and advanced spintronic devices,” says Professor Sakuraba.Further informationYuya SakurabaNational Institute for Materials Science (NIMS)SAKURABA.Yuya@nims.go.jpPaper: https://doi.org/10.1080/14686996.2024.2439781About Science and Technology of Advanced Materials (STAM)Open access journal STAM publishes outstanding research articles across all aspects of materials science, including functional and structural materials, theoretical analyses, and properties of materials. https://www.tandfonline.com/STAMDr Yasufumi NakamichiSTAM Publishing DirectorEmail: NAKAMICHI.Yasufumi@nims.go.jpPress release distributed by Asia Research News for Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.

A once-in-a-generation opportunity to learn from one of the industry's leading experts. Through this initiative, Spectral is developing investor engagement and laying the groundwork for a better understanding of quantum technologies that will help cultivate a broader base of informed, forward-looking stakeholders.As Brehm says, “The future of quantum computing isn’t only going to be about the technology—it’s about securing and helping the Human Identity thrive at the center of commercial and capital markets, and it is their emancipation from the centralized systems of today who will be the ones to catalyst behind these innovations. I’m helping people see the potential of quantum and how it will revolutionize industries through Quantum Quest Academy.”Spectral: The Quantum IBM or Oracle of the Future?Jenifer Osterwalder commented, “One thing is clear when you think of today’s tech titans such as IBM and Oracle—they didn’t become dominant by dancing with the status quo. They became market leaders by being early adopters of new technologies, building scalable systems, and recruiting top talent to help them realize their vision. And Spectral Capital shares this vision for the quantum space.”“Spectral’s Vogon Decentralized Edge and Hybrid Cloud with its embedded DQLDB solutions is not only yet another set of cloud computing solutions. These technologies are designed for the quantum age: decentralized, scalable, and secure at the quantum level.” Aaron Christensen, Chief Revenue Officer, said, “Spectral has set itself up to be the quantum version of the big three computing players, on the forefront of a market whose importance will continue to rise.”Under its management team’s combined vision and leadership, Spectral is focused on building the infrastructure to enable a quantum-powered world. As the CTO of Spectral Dr. Moshik Cohen, puts it, “Our goal is to lay the groundwork for the next age of computing. Uplisting to Nasdaq would make Spectral Capital the company that will define the quantum future, just as IBM and Oracle defined the world of classical computing that is before us today.”Spectral Capital’s Journey Towards the FutureThis is the start of the journey to Nasdaq. With access to the capital, visibility, and strategic partnerships that being a Nasdaq-listed company would entail, Spectral Capital would be well-positioned to accelerate the deployment of its quantum technologies. The company’s success will depend on its expansion into new markets, from AI to telecommunications.
