Fostering Sustainable Businesses in Emerging Economies presents a
series of case studies and exploratory studies, using quantitative
analysis, scientific studies, and qualitative studies showing how
innovation and technology enable emerging economies to achieve
business sustainability and also achieve the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). Most of all, the authors answer the
question: What are the most important lessons policymakers need to
consider when promoting sustainable business development?
The book throws light on the ongoing trends in international
business, integration of information technology with global
businesses, its role in value co-creation, resource integration,
and service for service exchange. While discussing the issues of
these areas, chapters of this book also delve into prevalent
problematic areas which are closely related like employment,
ethical aspects, power creation, and so on. Recognizing the role
digitization and new technologies play in enabling global managers
to communicate with outside world directly via digital channels
irrespective of their location (which is especially true in time of
COVID-19), the book takes an emerging economy perspective and
throws light on new theories, perceptions, employment
opportunities, and innovative ideas through its content. The
book not only discusses effects of information technology but
also the latest emerging technology in global business like use of
artificial intelligence, robotics, machine learning, big data, and
their integration with the global business 4.0.
Since emergence of these new technologies requires proper
infrastructural development, the book also throws light on
government initiatives and CSR in this respect. It contains
takeaways for both undergraduate and graduate students,
researchers and academicians, industry watchers,
practitioners, start-ups, and entrepreneurs
There is no industry left where AI is not being used. The
application of this technology has already stretched across domains
such as law, political science, policy, and economics; it will soon
permeate areas of warfare, autonomous transportation, education,
and space exploration to name a few. Technology giants such as
Google, Apple, and Facebook are already investing their money,
effort, and time towards integrating Artificial Intelligence. These
companies have also taken initiatives to evangelize the mass about
AI's capabilities and limitations. Currently there are about 400
start-ups working on AI and machine learning domains. Therefore, it
is important for everyone to know about the applications of AI.
This book provides a deeper understanding of the relevant aspects
of AI in Industry 5.0. The authors bring this exciting field to
life by presenting a substantial and robust introduction to
artificial intelligence in a clear and concise course book form.
Designed to provide an understanding of the foundations of
artificial intelligence, it examines education powered by AI,
entertainment and AI, home and service robots, healthcare
re-imagined, predictive policing, space exploration with AI,
weaponry in the world of AI, and many more critical applications.
The internet of things (IoT) has already proven its worth in fields
such as health, education, and urban transportation. Given the
rapid advancement of IoT along with artificial intelligence (AI)
and machine learning in recent years, it is believed that new age
technology will dramatically alter the way we live and work. One of
the areas where this paradigm may stand out in the future is the
domain of corporate diversity and inclusion. By modelling
intelligent behavior, IoT may detect possible bias and prejudice in
decision making, possibly eliminating patterns and biases that
hamper company capacity to recruit diversely and inclusively.
Promoting Inclusivity and Diversity Through Internet of Things in
Organizational Settings provides relevant theoretical frameworks
and the latest empirical research findings in the area. It examines
the empirical evidence on corporations and how IoT is being used to
create inclusiveness and diversity through electronic means.
Covering topics on occupational stress, digital transformation, and
digital diversification, this premier reference source is an
essential resource for business executives and leaders, human
resource managers, IT managers, social workers, sociologists,
researchers, and academicians.
Data is the most important commodity, which is why data protection
has become a global priority. Data breaches and security flaws can
jeopardize the global economy. Organizations face a greater risk of
failing to achieve strategy and business goals as cyber threat
behavior grows in frequency, sophistication, and destructiveness. A
breach can result in data loss, business interruption, brand and
reputation harm, as well as regulatory and legal consequences. A
company needs a well-thought-out cybersecurity strategy to secure
its critical infrastructure and information systems in order to
overcome these challenges. Cross-Industry Applications of Cyber
Security Frameworks provides an understanding of the specific,
standards-based security controls that make up a best practice
cybersecurity program. It is equipped with cross-industry
applications of cybersecurity frameworks, best practices for common
practices, and suggestions that may be highly relevant or
appropriate in every case. Covering topics such as legal
frameworks, cybersecurity in FinTech, and open banking, this
premier reference source is an essential resource for executives,
business leaders, managers, entrepreneurs, IT professionals,
government officials, hospital administrators, educational
administrators, privacy specialists, researchers, and academicians.
The richest one percent of the entire population of the world now
owns more than half of the global wealth. Global wealth is
unequally distributed, gross domestic product (GDP) and consumption
are a declining trend, and poverty is an increasing trend. Each
participant's gain or loss of utility is exactly balanced by the
losses or gains of the utility of the other participants, which
certainly drives an unhealthy and unhappy globe. As such, global
economic thinking must be redefined in order to encourage inclusive
development and better problem solving. Redefining Global Economic
Thinking for the Welfare of Society is a comprehensive reference
source that examines the prevailing economic theories and thinking,
determines the deficiency of some of the existing economic
thinking, and sets up guidelines and transformation of existing
economic thinking. Covering topics that include economic
development, circular economy, and population health, this serves
as an excellent resource for economists, sociologists, government
officials, policymakers, practitioners, faculties of universities
and colleges, students, researchers, and academicians.

Data is the most important commodity, dubbed "the money of the
twenty-first century," which is why data protection has become a
global priority. Data breaches and security flaws can jeopardize
the global economy. Organizations face a greater risk of failing to
achieve strategy and business goals as cyber threat behavior grows
in frequency, sophistication, and destructiveness. A breach can
result in data loss, business interruption, brand, and reputation
harm, as well as regulatory and legal consequences. Furthermore,
cyber security has evolved into a critical component of national
defense. Furthermore, its sphere of control encompasses all facets
of a country's government, economy, and health, in addition to
military realms. Companies of all sizes, markets, and market
environments face the task of securing their vital systems and data
daily. A company needs a strategic, well-thought-out cybersecurity
strategy to secure its critical infrastructure and information
systems to overcome these challenges. As a result, businesses
should seek guidance from cybersecurity frameworks. When used
correctly, a cybersecurity system allows IT security leaders to
better handle their companies' cyber threats. The Framework can be
applied in phases and hence customized to suit the needs of any
organization. The Cybersecurity Framework is designed for
businesses of all sizes, divisions, and stages. The system can be
customized to be used by any company thanks to the built-in
customization feature, designed to be flexible enough to be used by
organizations that are developing information security and risk
management systems. This book examines potential solutions,
starting with an understanding of ICS security developments in
terms of cyber threats, weaknesses, attacks and patterns, agents,
dangers, and the effects of all of these on the industrial
environment and the organizations that depend on it. Equipped with
cybersecurity framework best practices, this book is an excellent
resource for PG students, Ph.D. scholars, industry practitioners,
manufacturing and service industries, researchers, professors, and
academicians. The book provides an understanding of the specific,
standards-based security controls that make up a best practice
cybersecurity program.
