Dhivehi to English translation with Microsoft translator

  The Dhivehi language translation feature included in Microsoft translator and Microsoft 365 lets you press a button and translate written Dhivehi into English. Though there are a few hiccups here and there, the service is great and provides an understanding of the overall document. This is more than what we see from any existing models. I was amazed to see a link in one of my outlook web emails, it says “translate message to: English” which could mean nothing usually, however, when I saw the next sentence which said “Never translate from: Divehi”, I thought why would it says Divehi specifically if it doesn’t understand that the entire email was written in Dhivehi? Out of curiosity, I pressed the button, and to my surprise, it was quite good. The essence of the message was retained very well.

Fortifying Cybersecurity: A NIST CSF Perspective on Zero Trust and Passkeys

Cybersecurity is like protecting a fortress from invaders. Traditionally, we built strong walls around our castle, trusting those inside and keeping potential threats outside. But in today's digital world, threats can come from within and outside, making traditional defences inadequate. This is where the concept of zero trust comes in. What is Zero Trust? Imagine your home. You don't blindly trust everyone who walks in, right? You might ask for identification or make sure they have a reason to be there. Zero trust is similar. It means not automatically trusting anyone or anything trying to access your digital "home" (like your network or data). Instead, it's about constantly verifying and monitoring every access attempt, regardless of where it comes from. Why Zero Trust Matters: Zero trust addresses three key goals in cybersecurity, often called the CIA triad: Confidentiality : Just like you wouldn't want strangers snooping through your person...

Why Understanding Your Risks is Your Best Cyber Defence

  In today's digital age, headlines blare about "unprecedented data breaches" and "nation-state cyberattacks." It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape, where sophisticated zero-day exploits can bypass even the most fortified defences. But amidst this complexity, a fundamental truth remains: effective cybersecurity starts with understanding your risks. As Bruce Schneier stated, "Security is not a product, but a process." Just as a military commander wouldn't enter battle without understanding the terrain and potential threats, organizations must grasp the digital landscape in which they operate. Imagine a battlefield shrouded in thick fog. You wouldn't blindly charge ahead, would you? Risk assessment is akin to possessing a high-powered thermal sight, piercing the fog to reveal the hidden dangers lurking in the digital landscape. It's a systematic process of identifying your organization's critical a...
