I denne utgaven

Digital technologies are the benchmark of the 20th Century and the main feature of the beginning 21st Century. The dissemination of their tools (computers, internet, mobile communication) has enabled society to achieve the necessary instruments to make knowledge accessible to the masses, and to augment productivity in industry, in agriculture, in services, and expanded cultural activity. The greatest challenge of the information era is to avoid a gap between those who have and those who do not have access to the goods and skills required in the digital era. Information technology can be a powerful tool for the development of a new critical and participation-oriented citizen consciousness. One of the greatest challenges put on the agenda by technological innovation is the narrowing of the ‘digital gap’.

Leaders Speak Magazine Description:

Leaders speak Asia’s premier monthly magazine on cyber issues and views of leaders, announces its Special Launch Edition on ‘*Digital India*’ in July 2015. Leaders speak will be a touchstone for the media companies across the world. We will not only report the cybercrimes but also provide the solutions. The magazine will serve as single window solution for the cybercrimes. The exponential dimensions of cybercrime are challenging the human imagination. A simple virus unleashed by a criminal can bring untold miseries. A mighty nation can be brought to its knees. The modern battlefield for World War III will not be the geographical borders of the countries but a small control room housing a few innocuous computers. When Iran stonewalled all US attempts to stall its N programmes in 2013, Israel let loose lethal viruses which disrupted and rendered dysfunctional Iran’s computer programmes concerning with Nuclear research. In 2012 and the year after, China and US both indulged in a sort of cyber war unleashing viruses against each other. At a micro level, a gullible common man like you and me is defenseless against the cyber menace. No more. Leaders Speak is a panacea to all kinds of cyber ills. We are a single window solution as mentioned above, overarching all aspects of one’s life.
