A cybersecurity firm, Athenian Tech, has reported a significant data leak linked to the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), which is a key government agency in India. The breach appears to have originated from the device of a former Defence Ministry official, Puneet Agarwal. The sensitive information that has been compromised includes engineering designs of weapons, details about a new Air Force facility, procurement plans, and India's strategic collaborations with foreign nations. This incident raises serious security concerns, particularly given the stringent protocols that the DRDO enforces, including restrictions on personal mobile phones within certain premises. The leak underscores vulnerabilities within the defense sector, where safeguarding sensitive data is paramount. The hacker group claiming responsibility for the breach is known as Babuk Locker 2.0, which has put the stolen data up for sale, further complicating the situation a...

Since the catastrophic nuclear accident at the Fukushima power plant in 2011, Japan has struggled to meet its energy needs through renewable sources. The disaster not only caused significant nuclear waste release but also resulted in the loss of a crucial energy producer. In response, Japan has taken steps to reinvigorate its renewable energy sector, with a focus on meeting its 2050 net zero carbon emissions target. A promising development in solar energy could be the breakthrough Japan has long sought. Scientists are exploring the use of a material called perovskite for solar panels, which offers several advantages over traditional silicon-based cells. The theoretical efficiency of perovskite tandem cells is 43%, compared to the 29% efficiency limit of silicon cells. Such advancements could allow these panels to generate an estimated 20 gigawatts of electricity by 2040, equating to the power produced by 20 nuclear reactors.  Moreover, perovskite solar panels are flexi...

Recent research has unveiled significant concerns regarding kidney health for astronauts embarking on long-duration missions to Mars. A study led by Dr. Keith Siew and a team from the UCL Department of Renal Medicine analyzed data from 20 research cohorts and numerous microgravity simulations, revealing that the structure and function of kidneys are altered in space due to galactic cosmic radiation. Key findings indicate that kidney tubules shrink in microgravity, affecting salt and calcium balance and increasing the risk of kidney stones. Unlike previous assumptions that stones primarily result from bone loss, this research emphasizes direct changes in kidney function as a critical factor. While astronauts in Low Earth orbit benefit from some shielding from Earth's magnetic field, those on extended missions to Mars would encounter much greater exposure to radiation, which could lead to irreversible kidney damage. Dr....

What comes to mind when you think of South Korea k-pop, Korean skincare, cutting edge technology south Korea has a sleek modern image a place that thrives on innovation a cultural powerhouse shaping global trends but there's another side to this country one that barely makes the headlines now, it is out in the open and it's a massive adoption scandal you see South Korea is one of the biggest exporters of children to the world .
