Review of the Current State of UAV Regulations

"Review of the Current State of UAV Regulations", Claudia Stöcker & alt., Remote Sens. 2017, 9, 459; doi:10.3390/rs9050459, 

"UAVs—unmanned aerial vehicles—facilitate data acquisition at temporal and spatial scales that still remain unachievable for traditional remote sensing platforms. However, current legal frameworks that regulate UAVs present significant barriers to research and development. To highlight the importance, impact, and diversity of UAV regulations, this paper provides an exploratory investigation of UAV regulations on the global scale....http://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/9/5/459/pdf"

Gender Policy - Ministry of Defence - Republic of Kenya

Le Ministère de la Défense de la République du Kenya vient de publier un rapport (mai 2017) intitulé "Gender Policy" dans lequel  peut lire : "Technology has enhanced habitability and survivability in combat making it easier for both men and women to engage in operations. The emerging trends in conflict call for complementary roles of men and women for example in cyber warfare, terrorism inter alia. This type of warfare presents opportunities for women through the entire war spectrum". 

Mais le document ne revenant plus par la suite sur les enjeux "cyber", nous ne comprenons pas en quoi hommes et femmes peuvent être complémentaires dans le cyberconflit, ni en quoi ce dernier offre des opportunités particulières aux femmes. 

Notons par ailleurs que le même ministère vient de publier son Livre Blanc (23 pages, 2017) accordant en tout et pour tout 6 lignes au domaine "cyber": "Information technology, web based communication and use of electronic devices for storage predisposes sensitive Government information to organized cyber attacks which can undermine state security. The Ministry of Defence in collaboration with other stakeholders must develop appropriate capacity and institute measures to safeguard Information systems infrastructure." C'est donc le Ministère de la Défense qui, au Kenya, aura la charge de la cybersécurité de l'infrastructure des systèmes d'information (le texte est imprécis sur ce point: s'agit-il des seules infrastructures de communication militaires, ou bien de celles du pays en général?).
