Faces of the internet

In ancient Roman mythology, Janus is known as the God of beginnings and transitions. He is usually depicted as having two faces, since he looks to the future and to the past and thereby of gates, doors, passages, endings and time he is known as the gateway God. In today’s world the ‘Internet’ is an embodiment of Janus.  It looks towards the future but never forgets the past, it opens doorway to trade and associations Like Janus that caterers to journeys and exchange, While the fundamental nature of Janus is debated,  so does the internet in all its aspects, of good and evil.

Honestly the world wide web is a social evil we need to have, we can interact with the world at large, all at the disposal of our finger tips, on the conversely we could collapse more and more within ourselves, into a recluse or a hermit. With this shield or clock of invisibility we have the ability of honing our of  benefactor v/s criminalist character image. We could use it to propagate good deeds, and happiness, warmth to all we come in contact with, or we could use it to perpetrate ominous acts on our neighbors, cities, and nations at large. The Internet is the once lovingly invited house guest, we cannot seem to let go off, only cause it knows a little too much.  

Thought the famous and docile face of internet is the social portal but there is a different face as well a darker sinister side of the internet and cyber crime. Nations now arming themselves against these crimes to safe guard all their citizens. And National Cyber Security Programme at the beautiful Ritz Carlton Abu Dhabi. Financial services firms need to be aware of the threat hackers and cybercriminals pose to their IT systems and the data and intellectual property stored on them. Cybercriminals are becoming increasing sophisticated and innovating at an alarming pace. The event was solely to educate its council of the progressive nature of such entities lurking in the darker recesses of the internet.

The conference was on such a large scale with more than 300 attendees  that hold serious thoughts to standards to protection of the distinctiveness of the company and their employees at large. Data protect and safeguard the integrity of computer and communications systems, networks and database, and the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information and data stored therein.

An iconic mix of individuals, representing government and corporate holding hands to brace themselves and protect all that falls within their care. I was happy to be part of this one event and satisfactorily basked in the knowledge that even we were protected behind this strong warrior fore front.   

Appreciation extended to the team who assisted on this event Nigel, Jake, Emmerson. and the operations team. Thank you for making me proud.

Cooking Diaries

Culinary school in Dubai was adventurous to bring out creativity by enticing a corporate group to venture into their kitchens. 

I have to thank my team Archie and Jake who teamed up together to brave what started as Hell's Kitchen fiasco, and progressed to a Master Chef finale. Bringing out and elaborate dish called Teamwork, garnished with Integration of Ideas, served with a cool drink of Talent. Only to finish the day with a dessert based on Laughter topped with Enjoyment.

Each event is personalized and its uniqueness is heightened by the very essence of its concept, and the Invited Speakers glamorizes the sets with their insight, their talking points and discussions, bringing life and vibrancy to any event.
