Global events involving cybersecurity breaches have highlighted the ever-growing dependence on interconnected online systems in international business. The increasing societal dependence on information technology has pushed cybersecurity to the forefront as one of the most urgent challenges facing the global community today. Poor cybersecurity is the primary reason hackers are able to penetrate safeguards in business computers and other networks, and the growing global skills gap in cybersecurity simply exacerbates the problem. Global Cyber Security Labor Shortage and International Business Risk provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of protecting computer systems against online threats as well as transformative business models to ensure sustainability and longevity. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as cybercrime, technology security training, and labor market understanding, this book is ideally designed for professionals, managers, IT consultants, programmers, academicians, and students seeking current research on cyber security’s influence on business, education, and social networks.
Modern society has become dependent on technology, allowing personal information to be input and used across a variety of personal and professional systems.

There is no doubt that the events of 12 March 1993, which took place at Bombay, were the ghastliest of events. It is also wrong to directly connect the events of 12 March 1993 with the demolition of Babri Masjid on 06 December 1992. The events of 12 March 1993 took place only because of the partial treatment meted out to the Muslims of Bombay, by the State, during the riots which took place after the demolition of the Babri Masjid on 06 December 1992. In the name of investigations of the 12 March 1993 case, the entire community was targeted. We Indians were made to believe that the accused from 12 March 1993 were dealt with justice. Being associated with the case as an accused made me wonder as to how the judiciary did all these things while delivering justice. I would not have found all these wonders, had I got a job as an Islamic Finance Consultant, but for the need of a passport, as it was outside of India. Passports were granted by the State even to those who stood convicted in the same case for far more serious charges than mine. I took it to be the desire of the Supreme Power to narrate the injustice done in this case.
