Note

(Gary anon) Pretty much Gary [for Blue], Barry and Gladion are the main survivors. And even then, Gladion is really the only one who was treated the best during his series. Gary had to endure OS writing and Barry was outshine by Paul. (We can only hope T-tar wasn't here for just Articuno fodder) Heh, until Gary's story with Goh is finished [and there's no surprise 3v3/6v6 with them], that remains to be N/A. I have hope but of course, there's no promises. That's up

(Part 2) to the writers. (All those promos before his return talking about his and Ash's relationship, calling him his "biggest" rival [even Paul was referred to as "nemesis"], apparently still battling and training, didn't join the PWC cause it's "too crowded". Please don't let that be for naught) This sub-section of the fandom has always had in-fighting; though I think after DP and ESPECIALLY XY, it's harder NOT to be dragged into something. Sometimes I have to wonder

(Part 3) if Ash was ever retired, would that cause some of the wars to cease or make them 10 times worse. (It's why I wouldn't want any Ash ship being canon. Ship elitism ruins so much freedom and civility) His thing about teamwork has me curious, but at least his earlier words and actions in previous episodes is slowly being pieced together.

(Part 4) (Plus Quillon was implied to have similar problems too, which he learned and drilled that into Gary and Goh. I reckon will see a smile out of him soon) I guess we'll see some more G-max forms soon. (Though the leaks spoiled it for me, someone made a connection about most of Ash's Fire-types being abandoned and Gengar, and THAT could be what the title means) If "think about your partners' condition" is anything to go by, that should tell what to expect from Paul.

(Part 5) (I just need to know who's facing Ash and Iris or who's facing Leon to figure out my predictions. We also might see another fully-evolved starter from said leaked matchup) The hint is that it's one we haven't seen in Journeys yet. (In other news, Rica apparently sung the English Pokemon theme in a collab this week; you can still hear the "Satoshi" in her voice even there. xD)

Yeah. I hear the Kalos rivals (minus Calem) exist in XY, and though I have no idea how they were handled there except knowing Serena and Shauna get shipped a fair bit, they were handled so poorly in the games themselves it'd be hard to do worse.

Yeah, hopefully Tyranitar will get some redemption later! Either through Project Mew stuff or us getting that Ash vs Gary battle we've been hoping for.

I guess we'll see what happens, yeah. Here's hoping.

I had a feeling the conflict had gotten worse in recent years, even if shippers have always been at each other's throats (which is the case in most fandoms) and people have argued about if Ash is a good trainer and protagonist for a long time. It really does feel like there's been a gradual increase in conflict and tension that reached its absolute worst during Journeys, though I have to wonder if the pandemic had an impact on that, what with lockdown having people online more because nobody could go anywhere and a general rise in stress.

I feel like whether or not Ash hypothetically departing from the series would make some of the wars cease or make them worse would depend on the protagonist that took his place. If the next protagonist was say, Goh... it'd be divisive, to put it mildly.

Oh yes, ship elitism my beloathed. Watching hardcore PokeShippers and AmourShippers argue over which ship has more canon validation is exhausting. (I was always fond of the former, it was baby's first OTP, but I don't want any Ash ship to become canon ever and I don't care about my ships having any canon validation whatsoever.)

Yeah, it's interesting. Love what Project Mew is doing for the development of the characters involved.

Oh, more G-max forms? Interesting.

Oh, that makes sense, yeah!

Yeah, apparently he's gotten at least a little bit better if he's calling Pokemon "partners" and thinking about their conditions.

Yeah, I've been contemplating potential matchups (and I have ones I'd like to see in mind) but I'm mostly curious to see what happens!

Yeah! Hopefully Gary gets to gigantamax his Blastoise (or Hatterene since that's an option now) at some point, I still want to see that.

Awesome! Love that. Love that she did that, that's so cool.

A2P Messaging Market Research Report - Global Forecast till 2026

Market Snapshot

The process of sending mobile messages from an application to a mobile user is known as A2P (application-to-person) messaging. A2P messaging market is also known as enterprise or professional SMS. Businesses use this messaging technique in several technical modes to communicate with consumers, inform users of online services, or deliver time-sensitive alerts. In these cases, communication is initiated from a business application and not an individual’s mobile phone, as is the case with P2P SMS.

According to MRFR analysis, the global A2P messaging market is expected to witness high growth during the forecast period. The growth of the subscriber base and increasing adoption among enterprises are some of the factors driving the growth of the market. However, the high cost of infrastructure could hinder the growth of this market in the future

By vertical, the market has been segmented into BFSI, media & entertainment, healthcare, education & research, retail & e-commerce, government, utilities & logistics, IT & telecommunications, and others. In 2018, the BFSI segment accounted for the largest market share, whereas the government segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the study period

By region, the A2P messaging market has been categorized as North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South America.

Key Developments

In March 2020, Monty Mobile collaborated with Somtel (Somalia), a telecommunication company, to implement two value-added services, namely, missed call alerts and ring back tone

In September 2019, China Unicom Global Limited, a subsidiary of China Unicom, announced its cumulative investment of USD 0.28 billion, along with the Belt and Road countries, in 200 projects for providing premium international communication services, including data connection, IDC service, broadband service, roaming and MVNO services, and system integration, to its customer base.

In April 2019, Monty Mobile formed a partnership with 9Mobile (Nigeria) to sign an A2P SMS hub deal. This partnership offered Monty Mobile the lowest termination rate in the 9Mobile network, while 9Mobile benefited from the SMS firewall solutions offered by Monty Mobile.

In November 2016, Bharti Airtel Limited launched its managed A2P SMS firewall solution, the newest service in the company’s Global Messaging Solutions suite. The newly launched solution would help fix the revenue leakages of customers.

In December 2018, Monty Mobile partnered with PT Hutchison 3 Indonesia (Indonesia), one of the leading mobile communication services providers. The partnership was aimed at assigning Monty Mobile to handle and monetize the international A2P SMS traffic of Hutchison 3 Indonesia.

Regional Analysis

Geographically, the Global A2P Messaging Market has been segmented into the Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, the Middle East & Africa, and South America

Asia-Pacific leads the global A2P messaging market in terms of market share. The Asia-Pacific A2P messaging market has been segmented into China, India, Japan, and the rest of Asia-Pacific. For analysis, we have considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak on the Asia-Pacific A2P messaging market. The business for promotional A2P service type is highly impacted. Since shops, malls, and various other institutions are closed, notifications related to discount offers and other marketing-related activities are not being sent to potential clients. China had more than 1.5 billion mobile subscribers by December 2019. However, the country has the largest population in the world and various enterprises prefer messaging over the WeChat application for promotional messages as well as transactional messages

The North American A2P messaging market is divided into the US, Canada, and Mexico. The increasing mobile internet subscriber base, surging digital advertising, rising demand for advanced products, emerging IoT technologies, increasing ICT spending, and rising adoption of mobile technologies across various industry verticals is expected to drive the growth of the regional market throughout the study period

THE FUTURE OF CYBERSECURITY: THREATS, RISKS AND CHALLENGES FACING ORGANIZATIONS IN A POST-COVID ERA

The internet had paved the way for the Digital Transformation Journey of organizations in the last few decades. On the contrary, the Coronavirus pandemic has brought disaster in the form of loss of lives as well as waves of Cyberattacks facing organizations around the globe. Organizations must anticipate a Cyberattack and be prepared to deal with it effectively and be resilient.

No one had ever imagined a global pandemic of COVID-19 scale a few months back. The global pandemic has turned the world on its head. Every country has been affected in some way or the other. The pandemic has shaken the world from its slumber and has driven home the point that the human race can be a more vulnerable lot than previously thought. People are in a state of confusion and disarray on how to deal with the problem. Imagine what will happen if we face a cyberattack on a scale as massive as COVID-19. Let’s call this hypothetical cyberattack as ‘Cyber COVID.’ The thought itself is shuddering. COVID-19 has shown that the world is vulnerable to pandemics and also cyberattacks.

WHO reports a five-fold increase in cyberattacks with the onset of the pandemic. The fallout of a massive cyberattack such as Cyber-COVID can have far-reaching ramifications. However, the coronavirus has also taught the world how to handle such risks.

What Has COVID-19 Taught Us?

COVID-19 has brought the entire world to a standstill. A significant number of people are in a state of lockdown. Countries around the globe have imposed transport restrictions making it impossible for one to travel from one country to another. The economy has been crushed, with millions of industries shutting down businesses. Though it has caused tremendous hardships to people, there is a silver lining to the cloud.

The primary lesson that COVID-19 has taught the world is that it must remain prepared to face such attacks in the future. It has revolutionized history by creating two different eras, the pre-COVID-19 and the post-COVID-19 periods. The world is not going to be the same, and by seeing the increase in the number of virtual workers, one can say that the new ‘normal’ has shifted considerably.

The Threat Of A Cyber COVID – A Massive Cyberattack Of COVID Scale

Imagine if the coronavirus had been a cyberattack. Let’s examine the extent of damage it could have caused and the steps to take to manage the situation.

The reproductive rate (R0) of the coronavirus is a crucial statistic. It determines the number of people it can affect. Reports state that COVID-19 has an R0 between two and three. Thus, one infected person passes the disease to two or three persons. It indicates how fast the virus can spread. The most affected state, New York, had a doubling rate every three days before the lockdown. In comparison, the R0 of a computer virus or a cyber attack is 27 and above. The 2003 Slammer/Sapphire worm had a doubling rate of 8.5 seconds, with the virus attacking more than 75,000 devices in ten minutes. In 24 hours, the number of infected devices grew to more than 10.8 million.

A cyberattack similar to COVID-19 can be a self-propagating attack by a computer virus that exploits zero-day vulnerabilities.

As antivirus solutions would not be immediately available, such cyberattacks can affect devices running on a standard OS. It takes time to identify zero-day attacks. The prime example is the Stuxnet worm that hid in systems for 18 months before affecting them. If such a cyberattack were to impact a social media networking site with sufficient users, it could take around five days to infect a billion devices.

· The economic implications of a cyberattack on the COVID-19 scale can be mind blogging.

A cyber-COVID-like situation can result in the inactivity of millions of devices within a few days. If the cyber coronavirus had similar pathology of COVID-19, the case would be as follows.

· 50% of the network systems would suffer a severe degradation (equivalent to hospitalization for a week).

· 30% of the systems would be asymptomatic (function normally while spreading the virus).

· 15% would require a complete system reinstallation (similar to being on a ventilator).

· 5% of computers worldwide would be rendered inoperable (equivalent to being dead).

Perhaps the only solution would be to enforce a lockdown. Lockdown in the cyber world constitutes the disconnection of the internet, thereby blocking all business communication and financial transactions. It could result in paralyzing social media networks forcing people to resort to using landline phones, snail mail, personal visits, and short-wave radio.

Estimates show that a complete shutdown of the internet globally can result in a loss of more than $50 million a day. Thus, a 21-day lockdown can push the global economy back by more than $1 trillion.

· Recovering from such a situation can be a tremendous challenge.

Considering the number of computer systems in operation today, replacing 5% would require more than 71 million devices. Imagine the time taken to manufacture computer systems on such a massive scale. One also has to contend with logistics issues, patch programs, and reinstallations.

Pointing fingers at nations during the coronavirus pandemic is easy. It would not be the same in the case of cyber-COVID. For example, China is the largest producer of electronics items, smartphones, televisions, and computers in the world today. Blaming such a country for causing cyber-COVID can lead to geopolitical tensions.

How Can The World Manage Such A Situation?

COVID-19 has shown that one should anticipate such a situation and be prepared to manage it accordingly. The best aspect of COVID-19 is that it has created a global awareness of such a risk affecting the world. Here is what one should do to manage a cyber-COVID-like scenario.

· Due Care and Due Diligence: Be prepared for a cyber attack on such a massive scale. To be forewarned is always better than to be forearmed.

· Early Detection & Communication: Early detection, decision-making capabilities, and clarity of communication are two primary virtues to mitigate such potential risks. Any delay in managing the situation can prove disastrous.

· Cybersecurity Awareness, Training & Education: Public awareness is critical to managing such cyber attacks. There should be active cooperation between the different stakeholders. A well-defined cybersecurity policy should help address such cybersecurity challenges.

· Personal Data Protection: Personal data protection should be a priority for all. Organizations can introduce multi-factor authentication for banking transactions and accessing emails, such as using biometrics, or OTP to a registered mobile number.

· Using AI-ML based SIEM solutions: Post-COVID, AI-ML are going to play a significant role in defining cybersecurity strategies. Every network should have adequate security controls in place to manage such cyber risks, and using AI-ML based SIEM solutions can help to a great extent.

· Regulatory compliance: Regulatory compliance is a crucial aspect that every organization should not only adhere to for preventing a cyber-COVID-like attack but also to build a regulator’s trust in your organization’s brand.

· Simulate cyber attack: Conduct regular penetration testing and full-blown attack simulation exercises to determine how well your security teams, tools, and controls perform under and attack. Remember preparedness is planning combined with action.

· Virtual Is Real: COVID-19 has forced people to look to alternatives like Work From Home (WFH) or virtual work environments. Similarly, every organization should have contingency strategies such as a digital rollback, and continuity plans to ensure that the systems keep functioning despite a massive cyberattack.

Final Words

Nobody expected COVID-19 to happen, and that too on such a massive scale. However, the experience with COVID-19 can stand us in good stead. Organizations should be prepared to face a cyber attack of the magnitude of COVID-19 anytime that can paralyze the whole digital ecosystem. The repercussions of such a colossal cyber attack can be devastating, and organizations must implement control measures to prevent it from happening in the future, and be resilient if it happens.
