Prostitution During the Pandemic: Findings Show Need for Nordic Model

The impact of COVID-19 on sexually exploited individuals provides an opportunity to advance the Nordic Model approach and create lasting change. Although subject to gender-based violence and denied safety net services, commercially sexually exploited women are seldom seen as a “vulnerable” group in the pandemic. Interviews from social service agencies in Seattle, Washington show women are experiencing more physical and sexual violence from sex buyers and women who have exited prostitution are finding their stability and security in jeopardy. Advocates can make the case to address disparities with safety net guarantees and structural change with the adoption of the Nordic Model

Attribute-Based Encryption Scheme for Secured data Storage in Cloud Computing

This a storage security model in Cloud Computing and making a considerable measure of convincing purposes behind organizations to convey cloud-based storage. For another business, start-up costs are fundamentally decreased in light of the fact that there is no compelling reason to contribute capital in advance for an inner to help the business. By a long shot, the main inquiry customers considering a move to cloud storage ask is regardless of whether their data will be secure. Stored data offsite doesn't change data security necessities; they are the same as those confronting data put away on location. Security ought to be based on business prerequisites for particular applications and data sets, regardless of where the data is stored. We trust that data storage security in Cloud Computing, a zone brimming with challenges and of fundamental significance, is still in its earliest stages now, and numerous examination issues are yet to be distinguished. In this paper, we examined the issue of data security in cloud data storage, to guarantee the rightness of customers' data in cloud data storage. We proposed a Hierarchical Attribute-Based Secure Outsourcing for moldable Access in Cloud computing which likewise guarantees data storage security and survivability accordingly giving put stock in condition to the customers. To battle against unapproved data spillage, delicate data must be encoded before outsourcing in order to give end-to-end data confidentiality affirmation in the cloud and past. It upgrades the security in the proposed model successfully.

Optimal deployment of components of cloud-hosted application for guaranteeing multitenancy isolation

One of the challenges of deploying multitenant cloud-hosted services that are designed to use (or be integrated with) several components is how to implement the required degree of isolation between the components when there is a change in the workload. Achieving the highest degree of isolation implies deploying a component exclusively for one tenant; which leads to high resource consumption and running cost per component. A low degree of isolation allows sharing of resources which could possibly reduce cost, but with known limitations of performance and security interference. This paper presents a model-based algorithm together with four variants of a metaheuristic that can be used with it, to provide near-optimal solutions for deploying components of a cloud-hosted application in a way that guarantees multitenancy isolation. When the workload changes, the model based algorithm solves an open multiclass QN model to determine the average number of requests that can access the components and then uses a metaheuristic to provide near-optimal solutions for deploying the components. Performance evaluation showed that the obtained solutions had low variability and percent deviation when compared to the reference/optimal solution. We also provide recommendations and best practice guidelines for deploying components in a way that guarantees the required degree of isolation

An Actuarial Perspective on Pension Plan Funding

The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) was established by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) to provide “insurance guarantees” for qualified pension plans insufficiently funded to provide accrued vested benefits. The PBGC’s annual reports on the liabilities for plans it has taken over and the agency’s assets show that the Single Employer Program has seen this “net position” vary from a surplus of almost $10 billion in 2000, to a deficit of over$29 billion in 2012. The PBGC uses a proprietary Pension Insurance Modeling System to model future scenarios for their obligations. This paper offers observations on future pension plan funding and how this could affect the PIMS model, based on the current environment, and how the agency might respond to change
