Cybersecurity and research are not a dichotomy: : How to form a productive operational relationship between research computing and data support teams and information security teams

Cybersecurity and research do not have to be opposed to each other. With increasing cyberattacks, it is more important than ever for cybersecurity and research to corporate. The authors describe how Research Liaisons and Information Assurance: Michigan Medicine (IA:MM) collaborate at Michigan Medicine, an academic medical center subject to strict HIPAA controls and frequent risk assess- ments. IA:MM provides its own Liaison to work with the Research Liaisons to better understand security process and guide researchers through the process. IA:MM has developed formal risk decision processes and informal engagements with the CISO to provide risk- based cybersecurity instead of controls-based. This collaboration has helped develop mitigating procedures for researchers when standard controls are not feasible.

Area‐Based Urban Renewal Approach for Smart Cities Development in India: Challenges of Inclusion and Sustainability

Description

Cities in the Global South face rapid urbanization challenges and often suffer an acute lack of infrastructure and governance capacities. Smart Cities Mission, in India, launched in 2015, aims to offer a novel approach for urban renewal of 100 cities following an area‐based development approach, where the use of ICT…

Cities in the Global South face rapid urbanization challenges and often suffer an acute lack of infrastructure and governance capacities. Smart Cities Mission, in India, launched in 2015, aims to offer a novel approach for urban renewal of 100 cities following an area‐based development approach, where the use of ICT and digital technologies is particularly emphasized. This article presents a critical review of the design and implementation framework of this new urban renewal program across selected case‐study cities. The article examines the claims of the so‐called “smart cities” against actual urban transformation on‐ground and evaluates how “inclusive” and “sustainable” these developments are. We quantify the scale and coverage of the smart city urban renewal projects in the cities to highlight who the program includes and excludes. The article also presents a statistical analysis of the sectoral focus and budgetary allocations of the projects under the Smart Cities Mission to find an inherent bias in these smart city initiatives in terms of which types of development they promote and the ones it ignores. The findings indicate that a predominant emphasis on digital urban renewal of selected precincts and enclaves, branded as “smart cities,” leads to deepening social polarization and gentrification. The article offers crucial urban planning lessons for designing ICT‐driven urban renewal projects, while addressing critical questions around inclusion and sustainability in smart city ventures.`
