JERUSALEM Matt Moore Jersey , Jan. 30 (Xinhua) -- China's growing cybersecurity market has attracted more attention from global companies including those from Israel, which is strong in the cybersecurity sector.
Chinese cybersecurity market is huge and growing, not only because of its huge population of computer users, but also its deepening connection with the digital world, said Jony Fischbein, head of the Technical Marketing & Innovation of Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. Jon Niese Jersey , the largest network cybersecurity vendor globally.
During an interview with Xinhua at the Cybertech 2018 being held in Tel Aviv, Fischbein said his company is "more than keen to cooperate with Chinese partners on how to protect the next wave of cyber attacks."
As the cyber world becomes increasingly connected, the risks of more advanced attacks disrupting the cyberspace are no longer a science fiction.
To protect cyber security and order requires global cooperation, especially when the world is being connected in the era of the IoT (Internet of things), most experts and industrial leaders attending the Cybertech 2018 agreed.
Yigal Unna, director general of Israel's National Cyber Directorate in the Prime Minister's Office Bartolo Colon Jersey , emphasized the importance of global cooperation in the cybersecurity sector.
One of the important solutions is the establishment of an international cyber coalition, because the cyber threats affect the entire world, and so are the ways of dealing with them, Unna said.
Unna pointed out that it is important to identify early threats and develop counter measures using analytical capabilities, artificial intelligence and the best technologies.
So far, Check Point Martin Perez Jersey , which has offices in China's Beijing and Shenzhen with almost 100 employees, has cooperated with China's Alibaba, the world's largest online B2B marketplace on cybersecurity.
And the company is planning to expand its presence in China, attracted by the growth of the Chinese market.
An IoT industrial system is expected to be formed by 2020 in China, with an overall industrial value surpassing 1.5 trillion yuan (230 billion U.S. dollars), according to China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
In China Nomar Mazara Jersey , such huge IoT system will require higher standards of cyber defense to deal with cyber attacks. While China is sharpening its own cybersecurity power, it is also in need of seeking more cooperation with global leading cybersecurity partners.
Neri Zin, vice president of Cyberbit, a subsidiary company of Elbit, Israel's major cybersecurity vendor, said Cyberbit is keenly exploring the opportunity of seeking cooperation with China.
"China has a huge market and we should explore Darwin Barney Jersey ," Zin told Xinhua.
The world is connected, and cyber attacks are taking advantage of it, said Nadav Tsafrir, former commander of the 8200 unit of the Israeli Defense Forces, at a panel discussion of the Cybertech 2018.
"What is important today is cooperation on the resources invested in cyber defense and cybersecurity," Tsafrir said.
Delegates from over 80 countries and dozens of multinational companies attended the fifth Cybertech 2018 Jurickson Profar Jersey , the world's largest cyber technology event outside the United States.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29 (Xinhua) -- An American study shows that a disorder in sleep and wake cycle might be early signs for Alzheimer's disease.
The research at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has indicated that the circadian rhythm disruption occurs much earlier in people whose memories are intact but whose brain scans show early, preclinical evidence of Alzheimer's.
The findings, published Monday in the journal of JAMA Neurology, could help doctors identify people at risk of Alzheimer's earlier than currently is possible, since Alzheimer's damage can take root in the brain 15 to 20 years before clinical symptoms appear.
"It wasn't that the people in the study were sleep-deprived Shin-Soo Choo Jersey ," said first author Erik S. Musiek, an assistant professor of neurology. "But their sleep tended to be fragmented. Sleeping for eight hours at night is very different from getting eight hours of sleep in one-hour increments during daytime naps."
The researchers also conducted a separate study in mice, to be published Jan. 30 in The Journal of Experimental Medicine, showing that similar circadian disruptions accelerate the development of amyloid plaques in the brain, which are linked to Alzheimer's.
Previous studies at Washington University, conducted in people and in animals Joey Gallo Jersey , have found that levels of amyloid fluctuate in predictable ways during the day and night. Amyloid levels decrease during sleep, and several studies have shown that levels increase when sleep is disrupted or when people don't get enough deep sleep, according to research by senior author, Yo-El Ju.
"In this new study, we found that people with preclinical Alzheimer's disease had more fragmentation in their circadian activity patterns, with more periods of inactivity or sleep during the day and more periods of activity at night Delino DeShields Jr. Jersey ," said Ju, an assistant professor of neurology.
The study shows that subjects who experienced short spurts of activity and rest during the day and night were more likely to have evidence of amyloid buildup in their brains.
Both researchers said it's too early to answer the chicken-and-egg question of whether disrupted circadian rhythms put people at risk for Alzheimer's disease or whether Alzheimer's-related changes in the brain disrupt circadian rhythms.
"At the very least, these disruptions in circadian rhythms may serve as a biomarker for preclinical disease," said Ju. "We want to bring back these subjects in the future to learn more about whether their sleep and circadian rhythm problems lead to increased Alzheimer's ris
