Earlier in August, one of the world's largest cable manufacturers Leoni AG publicly confessed that it had fallen victim to a classic CEO Fraud attack that has cost the company a whopping 44 million dollars
Following two weeks of intensive investigations
new details surfaced and the thieves turned out to have used sophisticated social engineering tactics combined with email spoofing.
The attackers crafted emails to appear like legitimate payment requests from the head office in Germany and sent them to a subsidiary of Leoni in Bistrita
a young woman working as CFO at Leoni's Bistrita factory was the target of the scam
when she received an email spoofed to look like it came from one of the company's top German executives
She then proceeded paying out $44 million in the process
Leoni is not the first company to fall for CEO Fraud, we have been talking about a lot of these incidents the last year. For instance, toy manufacturer Mattel came close to losing $3 million in an attack like this
Back in April, the FBI released a report claiming that more than 17,000 people across the globe have been tricked into similar scams over the last 2 years
This amounts to more than $2.3 billion lost in fraud incidents
Are you aware that one of the first things hackers try is to see if they can spoof the email address of your CEO
penetrating your network is like taking candy from a baby

Bistriţa is actively monitoring indoor and outdoor air quality since 2021
as part of the local sustainable mobility campaign "Bistriţa
This initiative has led to the installation of sensors across various areas
with the collected data online accessible to the public
Bistriţa’s involvement in the URBACT Zero Carbon Cities programme has led to the procurement and installation of 18 multiparameter environmental sensors
These sensors play a crucial role in monitoring a range of parameters
including CO2 levels and other pollutants that impact citizens' health
The sensors can be divided into two categories:
Real-time data from these sensors is accessible through the uRADMonitor platform
This initiative aims to raise citizens' awareness about air quality and has produced positive results within the community
Residents now better understand the link between their individual consumption habits
they are making more informed decisions to combat pollution and contribute to a healthier environment
The sensors make CO2 levels and air pollutants tangible and comprehensible to the public
This aligns with the primary goal of the initiative: to educate and raise awareness among citizens
about the importance of reducing pollutants and CO2 in the atmosphere
As public awareness of these emissions grows
individuals can better understand their impact on climate change
thereby encouraging exploration of more sustainable alternatives
The implementation of this initiative involved collaboration with a local urban group
providing valuable insights into effective carbon emission reduction measures within the city
there are 10 road traffic sensors (uRADMonitor A3 sensors) actively monitoring air quality throughout the Bistriţa municipality
Each uRADMonitor A3 device monitors 10 indicators
Data from these sensors is updated every minute and stored for retrospective analysis
This project started as a small-scale pilot project
and later expanded to include more locations in Bistriţa (indoor and outdoor)
Citizens can access real-time data through the Bistriţa Municipality website or a dedicated app
the real time data can indicate where air is polluted
and thus warn vulnerable citizens to reduce their exposure to the polluted air in that specific area
Another example is that measured noise levels can help to build a noise map at city level
but also to estimate the intensity of traffic in the city
which are the indoor sensors (uRADMonitor SMOGGIE-CO2) measure concentrations of CO2 and discreetly indicate excessive CO2 levels through a red LED light
while a green light indicates acceptable levels
Stakeholders include among others the urban local group
all of which have contributed by installing sensors on their premises
High schools and kindergartens with indoor sensors support Bistriţa’s sustainable urban mobility campaign
the identification of optimal sensor locations posed challenges due to the requisite reliable Wi-Fi access
and engagement were also essential to ensure the sensors remained purposeful
This was achieved by granting citizens access to the platform and utilising an online application
Citizen feedback highlights that the most significant positive outcome was the increased enthusiasm among school children where sensors were deployed
This underscores the effectiveness of using accessible environmental sensors to generate awareness and enthusiasm for improving air quality
The LED indicators on the sensors alert teachers when the CO2 concentration is too high
so that they can take actions such as opening windows in the classrooms
Data shows that when more ventilation is ensured
there is a subsequent decrease in CO2 concentration
This decrease is especially noticeable during the winter
The city of Bistriţa recommends other municipalities to consider the implementation of similar environmental sensors to raise public awareness about air quality and pollutants
The data generated by these sensors is easily understandable and resonates with the public
A logical progression for Bistriţa would involve the expansion of the sensor network
a goal the city aspires to achieve in the future
the city could explore whether other parties are interested in investing in sensors and installing them on their premises
A potential future development may entail gaining insights into website usage

Assistant Bishop Benedict of Bistrița posted a message on the website of the local church-owned Radio station Renasterea
“It is essential to assume the pain of the absence
to live it in the most natural spirit of repentance,” the hierarch said
“It’s time to abstain from the longing for the Bridegroom
Under the conditions imposed by the pandemic
the assistant bishop wrote that “this year
And I believe that this ordinance of God will be for our benefit.”
Because the longing for communion with the Saviour of our souls intensifies
offers us this time to feel the deep and sweet longing for Him
so that we may long to eat the Passover with Him.”
Bishop Benedict instructed the believers to participate actively
thus being in communion with the ministering priests and becoming “a part of the Eucharistic prayer.”
“It is vital for all those who love the Divine Liturgy
to participate physically and spiritually as you would in the Church
accompanied by the same liturgical gestures and the same vigilance.”
believers transform the world into a Church
the whole world unites in the Divine Liturgy
God’s Spirit that we call upon in prayer will rest upon the world like at the beginning of creation.”

the producer of materials for installations and constructions
in a move designed to increase the value of exports in this country
Th Administration Council approved the setting up of a limited liability company (SRL) in Serbia

The paper packaging manufacturer BisBags is counting on development in foreign markets
complementary to the consolidation strategy and local growth in catering
“We will focus more on internationalization in 2023 and increase exports to markets such as France, Great Britain, and Germany, where we will collaborate with strategic partners and distributors in the target countries”, said Iulia Sullivan, CEO and founder of Bisbags.

“We noticed at the international fairs how the final customer does not buy straight from the manufacturer and prefers a local partner. We are open to starting new partnerships with distribution companies. You need, as a producer, six months to reach large volumes and projects to gain distributors’ trust, based on experience in foreign markets,” says Iulia Sullivan.
Attending fairs is essential and has become a strategic priority

“The French give the trend to the global market. New trends are born in France and then develop in the rest of Europe”, says Iulia Sullivan.
BisBags also aims to develop in the UK market
where the potential for packaging customization is high
Companies are trying to look for opportunities
especially now that they can no longer bring packaging from Asia at the prices that were practiced before the pandemic
Now we can also compete with the producers in Asia against the background of the increase in transport costs”
The company continued investments at the production level and invested approximately 1.5 million euros in three new machines for making bags with flat handles and string handles
