I-News Focus - Impi: isalungele ibhizinisi

nguSimon Rowe, Juni 8 2014 Ishicilelwe kabusha Agasti 15, 2018, I-IE ezimele.

Izinkampani ezizinze e-Ireland ziyabulala emakethe yezikhali nokuvikela emhlabeni wonke ebiza izigidigidi zama-euro. Imiyalo yokuthekelisa exhunywe nezimboni zezempi, zezikhali nezokuvikela manje isibiza u-€2.3bn emangalisayo ngonyaka, futhi amafemu anezixhumanisi zomkhakha wezikhali womhlaba wonke aqashe amakhulukhulu lapha.

Ichazwa izishoshovu ezimelene nempi ngokuthi “imfihlo encane engcolile” yase-Ireland, i-Ireland isibe, ngokunyenya, isizinda esibalulekile ochungechungeni lokuhlinzeka ngabakhiqizi bezikhali bamazwe ngamazwe.

Ukuthi izimoto zayo zezikhali eziklanywe i-Meath-based Timoney Technology, izindiza zezempi ezingenamuntu ezixhaswe ubuchwepheshe obuthuthukiswe enkampanini yase-Dublin i-Innalabs, noma izindiza ezinophephela emhlane ze-Apache zisebenzisa izingxenye ezenziwe i-DDC e-Cork, umnotho wethu ohlakaniphile uhlinzeka ngongqondongqondo ukuze baqinise amasosha. yamabutho emhlabeni wonke.

Futhi njengoba izimpi ze-cybersetting zisethelwe esikhundleni sezinkundla zempi ezijwayelekile ezindaweni zempi ezizayo, amafemu aphezulu e-software e-Ireland manje athatha isikhundla esiphambili emakethe ekhulayo yezokuphepha ku-inthanethi njengoba amazwe ezizwe ekhulisa ukuvikela kwawo ubuchwepheshe.

“I-Ireland iyingxenye encane kodwa ethuthukayo yemboni yezikhali nokuvikela emhlabeni wonke,” kusho omunye umhlaziyi womkhakha. “Futhi izoba nkulu kuphela.”

Nakuba 'ukungathathi hlangothi' kwe-Ireland kusho ukuthi izinhlelo zezikhali ezisebenza ngokugcwele azikwazi ukwakhiwa lapha, izingxenye ezingazodwana, imiklamo nesofthiwe ehlanganisa lezi zinhlelo zingathunyelwa zisuka ezimbonini kanye namayunithi e-R&D atholakala ezweni lonke ngaphansi 'kokusetshenziswa okukabili' kwe-Ireland. imithetho yokuthekelisa.

Izimpahla ezisetshenziswa kabili zibhekisela emikhiqizweni okuthi, nakuba yenzelwe ukusetshenziswa umphakathi, futhi ingaba nesicelo sezempi, njengesofthiwe engasetshenziselwa uhlelo lwe-IT futhi engasetshenziswa njengengxenye ohlelweni lokuqondisa izikhali.

Ngo-2012 - unyaka wakamuva lapho izibalo zitholakala khona - amalayisense angu-727 okuthekelisa abiza isamba esingu-€2.3bn anikezwe izimpahla ezisetshenziswa kabili uMnyango Wezamabhizinisi kumafemu ase-Ireland athumela ezindaweni ezinezinkinga emhlabeni jikelele njenge-Afghanistan. , iSaudi Arabia, iRussia ne-Israel. Ngawo lowo nyaka, kwakhishwa amalayisense okuthunyelwa kwezempi ayi-129 abiza ama-€47m.

Ukuthunyelwa kwamanye amazwe kwezingxenye ezisetshenziswa kabili kuveza ukukhula okuphawulekayo kwaminyaka yonke ku-exchequer yase-Ireland kodwa futhi kuhlinzeka ngekhanda kubaphathi abalawula ukuthekelisa, hhayi ngoba amazwe amaningi ahlukene avame ukuba nesandla ekwenziweni kwesistimu yezikhali eyodwa kanye nokunquma 'ukusetshenziswa kokuphela' ingxenye ngayinye eboshelwe ukuthekelisa kungaba umsebenzi onzima. Izingxenye nazo kungenzeka zingabonakali kakhulu emkhiqizweni wokugcina, okwenza kube nzima kakhulu ukuqapha ukuthi izinto ezinjalo zisetshenziswe kabi yini noma cha.

Inhlangano ebhekele amalungelo abantu i-Amnesty International ibilokhu izwakalisa ukukhathazeka mayelana nokusetshenziswa okukabili kwe-Ireland ukuthunyelwa kwempahla kwamanye amazwe kanye nokuxhuma okungenzeka kwakho nokuhlukunyezwa kwabantu emhlabeni jikelele.

Ushwele ukhomba izintuba ezingaba khona ezilawulweni zokuthekelisa zokusetshenziswa okukabili kwase-Ireland lapho ulwazi “lokusetshenziswa kokuphela kwento” olungafakwa ohlwini “lwezakhamuzi” lungahlotshaniswa nokuhlinzekwa kwezingxenye ezinkampanini “ezivamile” ezibe sezihlanganisa izingxenye ezinhlelweni zempi. .

Isibonelo esisebenzayo sibonisa izingqinamba ezibhekene namafemu azinze e-Ireland kanye nabaqaphi bamalungelo abantu. Lapho indawo yokukhiqiza esekelwe ku-Cork yenkampani yase-US i-Data Device Corporation (DDC) ithumela izingxenye kwa-Boeing ukuze kuhlanganiswe isistimu yekhompiyutha ekhona kwenye yezindiza zayo ezinophephela emhlane zakamuva, inconywa njengendaba enkulu yempumelelo yezohwebo. Kodwa lapho leyo ndiza iyizindiza ezinophephela emhlane ziyi-Apache Attack Helicopters kanye nohlelo lwayo lwekhompiyutha olusebhodini lulawula izikhali eziningi ezibulalayo, okuhlanganisa imicibisholo ye-Hellfire eyi-16, amarokhethi asemoyeni kanye nezinhlamvu eziyi-1,200 zenganono yayo ezenzakalelayo, ngokuzumayo ukusetshenziswa okubili kwamanye amazwe kuthathwa njengokuyingozi kakhulu. umphetho.

UJoe Murray weqembu lase-Ireland elimelene nempi i-Afri usecele uHulumeni ukuthi anikeze imininingwane esobala ngezixhumanisi eziqondile phakathi kwamafemu akhiqiza ezinze e-Ireland - ezinye zazo ezithola izigidi zama-euro ku-IDA kanye noxhaso lwesibonelelo se-Forfas - kanye nemboni yezokuvikela yomhlaba wonke. .

“Njalo uma kunesimemezelo semisebenzi senkampani kagesi ifika izosungula ifemu kuleli asitshelwa ukuthi lawo ma-electronics azosetshenziselwa ini,” usho kanje. “Kunezindawo ezisobala lapho okungenziwanga khona futhi imibuzo ayibuzwa. Ukube bekukhona ukuzimisela ukubuza leyo mibuzo kungaba nokufana kobuqotho mayelana nesimo sikahulumeni sokungathathi hlangothi kwezwe lethu,” usho kanje.

Kodwa umhlaziyi wezokuvikela u-Tim Ripley uthuka izimangalo zase-Ireland 'zokungathathi hlangothi' njengoba amafemu lapha alwela ukuzuza ingxenye enkulu yemakethe yezokuvikela yomhlaba. “Ukungathathi hlangothi kwase-Ireland bekulokhu kuwumgunyathi kancane,” kusho uRipley, obhalela i-Defence Weekly kaJayne. “Ohulumeni base-Ireland bayakujabulela ukuthi isikhumulo sezindiza iShannon sisetshenziswe amasosha aseMelika nezindiza zaseMelika. I-Ireland iyingxenye ye-EU, enenqubomgomo yezokuvikela, futhi amasosha ase-Ireland abambe iqhaza emaqenjini e-EU. Kimina kubonakala sengathi ukungathathi hlangothi kwe-Ireland kuza futhi kuhambisana nokunambitheka kwesikhashana. "

Kodwa-ke, isikhulu se-Afri uJoe Murray usola uHulumeni "ngokungacaci ngamabomu, ngokuzithandela" ngalolu daba. Uthi akubuzwa imibuzo eyanele mayelana nabasebenzisi bokugcina bokusetshenziswa okukabili kwamanye amazwe futhi wesaba ukuthi bagcina sebesezandleni ezingalungile nokuthi amafemu ase-Ireland angase abe "negazi ezandleni zabo".

Kodwa uNgqongqoshe Wezamabhizinisi uRichard Bruton, umnyango wakhe onomthwalo wemfanelo wokuqinisekisa ukuthotshelwa kwemithetho yezempi yamazwe ngamazwe ethunyelwa ngaphandle, usethuthele ekudambiseni ukwesaba ngokuthi "ukuphepha, ukuzinza kwesifunda kanye nokukhathazeka kwamalungelo abantu okusekela ukulawulwa kokuthumela kwamanye amazwe kubaluleke kakhulu".

Ngemva kokuphothula ukulungiswa kabusha kwemithetho yokuthunyelwa kwezikhali ngemuva kwezikhalo zokuthi ukulawulwa kwelayisense okukabili akusebenzi kahle, uMnyango kaMnu uBruton ukuqinisekisile ukuthi phakathi kuka-2011 no-2012 izicelo ezinhlanu zamalayisense okuthekelisa zenqatshiwe “ngezizathu zokucatshangelwa mayelana nokusetshenziswa okuhlosiwe kanye nobungozi. wokuphazamiseka”.

Kodwa, ngokusobala, imboni yezokuvikela yanamuhla incane mayelana nemicibisholo namathangi futhi imayelana nokuthuthukisa ubuchwepheshe obuhlakaniphile bezimpi ze-cyber zesikhathi esizayo. Impela, ochwepheshe bezokuvikela bakholelwa ukuthi impi ye-inthanethi iyingozi enkulu kunobuphekula ezifundazweni.

Imboni yezobunjiniyela nobuchwepheshe esezingeni eliphezulu yase-Ireland iheha amafemu omhlaba wezokuvikela nezokuphepha abheke amafemu ukuze atshale imali.

I-BAE Systems eyisikhondlakhondla sezokuvikela yachitha cishe ama-euro ayizigidi ezingu-220 ithenga i-Norkom Technologies eseDublin, egxile kakhulu ekuthotshelweni kwemithetho kanye nemikhiqizo yokuhlonza ubugebengu. I-BAE ithe ifuna ukukhulisa imali engenayo evela emisebenzini yayo ye-cyber and intelligence futhi isivumelwano sikaNorkom sizokwenza lokho kukhula.

Futhi ifemu eyodwa ezinze e-Ireland isivele ivule elinye ithuba empini yokubamba le makethe ekhulayo.

UMandiant, umdondoshiya womhlaba wonke emkhakheni wezokuphepha ku-inthanethi kanye nowokuvikela kuzwelonke, uvule isikhungo saseDublin ngasekupheleni konyaka odlule. Amahhovisi ayo ase-George's Quay, le nkampani eyibiza ngokuthi 'I-European Engineering and Security Operations Centre', asesendleleni yokudala imisebenzi eyi-100 yobuchwepheshe obuphezulu.

UMandiant uyinkampani ebambe iqhaza ophenyweni olubalulekile oludalule ukuhlasela okuxhaswe nguhulumeni waseChina okuhloswe ukweba izimfihlo zezohwebo ezinkampanini ezinkulu zaseMelika. Ibike okokuqala ngobunhloli baseShayina ngonyaka odlule futhi uphenyo lwayo lwagcina luholele ekutheni i-US ibeke amalungu amahlanu e-People's Liberation Army ngesonto eledlule ngamacala obugebengu be-cyber-espionage.

Kungani lokhu kubaluleke kangaka?

Kulula.

I-China ibilokhu igebenga osonkontileka abakhulu bezokuvikela iminyaka eminingi futhi kubikwa ukuthi isishaye into ecokeme ye-cyber-espionage jackpot.

I-US isisebenzise izigidigidi zamaRandi ikhiqiza indiza yokulwa eyi-F-35 eyimfihlo kodwa izakhi ze-F-35 sezingenile endizeni yokulwa yaseShayina efanayo. Ngakho-ke, ukutshalwa kwezimali kwaseMelika obekuhloselwe ukuyinikeza inzuzo yeminyaka eyi-15 sekuvele kubukelwa phansi ngokuphelele.

Futhi ifemu esekwe e-Ireland ixhunywe ekudaluleni okungenzeka ukuthi kuwubugebengu obukhulu kunabo bonke abake babikwa emlandweni.

Ngokusobala, umkhakha wezokuvikela womhlaba wonke umuhle kakhulu, awucacile futhi uthuthuke kakhulu kwezobuchwepheshe kunangaphambili; kodwa izindaba ezinhle ukuthi abasebenzi bethu abanolwazi lwezobuchwepheshe bazonikeza i-Ireland inzuzo yamaqhinga enkundleni yempi yesikhathi esizayo.

Amafemu aphezulu ayi-10 ase-Ireland axhumene nemboni yezokuvikela

*I-Timoney Technology
