Threats and Protection on E-sim: A Prospective Study | Chapter 06 | Novel Perspectives of Engineering Research Vol. 8

 Threats encompass a wide range of dangers, and some of these concerns are related with integrated SIM technology, such as Internet of things (IoT) identification. The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the working capabilities that enable the allocation of unique identifiers (UID) in order to successfully interact with the linked devices, hence increasing communication. An e-SIM application cannot create reliable and precise data that can be utilised to forecast the outcome of the subscriber. SIM technology does not supply any accurate data for the user to use in formulating serious productive outcomes. Failure of the technology to process and automatically notify the user means that an infringement or hacking has occurred. SIM-jacking is another important threat to the embedded universal integrated connection card (e-UICC). Incompetent Log Rhythm Al Engine impacts the fraudster hacking experience due to failed defences inside the operational environment. To respond to the fraudsters' unpleasant operations issues, the e-SIM technology system lacks timely threat, risk, and other critical operations predictability. Similarly, by failing to protect the much-needed privacy of an individual's important information, the embedded SIM exposes service providers to insider threats. During system operations, instances of personal data leakage have been noticed. The e-SIM hijacking allows fraudsters to surreptitiously steal the victim's vital subscriber data, hijack, and receive the information meant for the user to his or her personal phone. The hacker completes mobile account procedures, leading in further access to the victim's bank details and cash transfer. The provision of fraudulent information is another concern that e-SIM customers face. SIM subscribers are frequently misled into falling into the traps of fraudsters by receiving short messages (SMS) claiming assistance from service providers, resulting in the victim's bank account being drained. Identity fraud and device poisoning are two more hazards linked with the use of e-SIM. In general, the entire process of fraud invasion and victimisation has an impact on the business decisions of those affected.

In contrast to the actual SIM card, protection relies on the integrated SIM, which provides higher security as well as a reprogrammable technological system. The personal information of the subscriber is not saved in the e-SIM, but rather with the service providers, which boosts its efficacy. An e-SIM enables consumers to switch providers between T-Mobile and Sprint without physically moving, which is advantageous for security systems. Despite the security precautions in place, e-SIM, like any other SIM card, is subject to data theft. As a result, service providers must prepare for new fraudster effects by appropriately monitoring the network system and setting security controls. The system should impose rigorous constraints during operation that allow for the evaluation and differentiation of IoT and non-IoT devices.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

Study on Processing Method Influences the Effect of Cassava (Manihot esculenta) Consumption on Blood Lipid Profile in Rats | Chapter 8 | Current Research and Development in Chemistry Vol.1

Cassava is consumed in many tropical countries and is fast becoming the major raw material of many diets, especially in the bakery, brewery and pharmaceutical industries. In a study to determine the effects of various formulations of Cassava feeds on blood lipid profile in rats. Forty adult Wistar rats weighing between 120 and 150 g were divided into 4 groups of 10 rats each. The rats were acclimatized for one week; fed with different formulations of Cassava feeds adlibitum, after which the rats were allotted into groups. Group 1 was fed on Garri; group 2 on Cassava flour; group 3 on Tapioca, and the control group (group 4) on normal chow. After 4 weeks, each animal was anaesthetized by exposure to chloroform vapour and blood samples collected by cardiac puncture. Group 1 diet (Garri) significantly increased HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and significantly decreased LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration (p<0.05) compared with the control group. In Group 2 (Cassava flour), t...

Ethnopharmacological Survey among Traditional Medicine Practitioners in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) for the Management of Pathologies such as Malaria, ENT Diseases, Diarrhea, Typhoid Fever and Anemia | Chapter 05 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Traditional Medicine Practitioners (TMPs) of Côte d'Ivoire are familiar with the therapeutic herbs. Medicinal plants have been shown to be useful in the treatment of common diseases such as malaria (KROA, 2004) and diabetes (N'GUESSAN et al, 2013) in several studies and scientific study. In the Abidjan District, the current policy is to integrate traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia into the national health system in order to improve population health coverage, particularly in the management of commonly encountered diseases such as malaria, ENT diseases, diarrhoea, typhoid fever, and anaemia. This research aims to increase the use of traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia in the national health system. Over the course of three months, fifty (50) PMTs in the District of Abidjan participated in this study. Plant therapists accounted for 30 of the 50 PMTs polled at the end of the study, or 60%. Traditional medicine centres use 61 types of medicinal plants from 36 famili...
