Celebrating Teachers’ Day- September 5

Recognizing their Enduring Influence on Education

We celebrate Teachers’ Day to commemorate the birthday of an exceptional individual, Dr. SAVARIPALLI RADHAKRISHNAN, who was a distinguished scholar and philosopher and served as India’s second President. Dr. Radhakrishnan’s legacy in the realms of education and philosophy is substantial. He firmly believed that knowledge illuminated the path of progress for both individuals and society as a whole.

Remarkably, Dr. Radhakrishnan’s humility matched his intellect. When his students proposed celebrating his birthday, he displayed profound modesty. Instead of advocating for the celebration of his own life, he suggested that the day should be devoted to honoring teachers. These often-unsung heroes selflessly impart knowledge and wisdom to countless young minds. This self-effacing act transformed his birthday into a day dedicated to celebrating teachers.

Teachers’ Day is a yearly observance in India, consistently celebrated on September 5th. This occasion provides an exceptional opportunity for students, parents, and educational institutions to convey their deep appreciation and recognition for teachers’ unwavering dedication and hard work.

Schools and students come together on this noteworthy day to pay tribute to their teachers. It’s a moment to acknowledge the teachers’ exceptional commitment as they impart knowledge and serve as mentors and guides, significantly developing young minds and shaping their destinies.

His outstanding contributions to education and philosophy have left an indelible mark on India’s intellectual landscape. Dr. Radhakrishnan firmly believed knowledge was the guiding light for personal and societal progress.

Interestingly, he showed extraordinary humility when his students proposed to celebrate his birthday. He suggested that, instead, the day should honor teachers – the often unsung heroes who tirelessly impart knowledge and wisdom to countless young minds. This gesture of reverence for educators transformed his birthday into Teachers’ Day, a day dedicated to celebrating those who shape not only the intellect but also the character of future generations.

 Differences between IT and OT systems Whereas IT systems manage data and support business functions, OT is the hardware and software that directly monitors/controls physical devices and processes and as such are an integral part of the ship and must function independently of the IT systems onboard. The systems can, however, be connected to the IT network for performance monitoring, remote support etc. Such systems are sometimes referred to as belonging to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT). There may be important differences between who handles the purchase and management of the OT systems versus IT systems on a ship.

Ships and other vessels may seem like unusual targets for cyberattacks. But with their growing use of industrial control systems (ICS) and satellite communications, hackers have a new playground that’s ripe for attack. In a 2020 Safety at Sea and BIMCO Maritime Cyber Security survey, despite the majority of respondents (77%) viewing cyber-attacks as a high or medium risk to their organizations, few appear to be prepared for the aftermath of such an attack, 64% of respondents said their organization has a business continuity plan in place to follow in the event of a cyber incident, but only 24% claimed it was tested every three months, and only 15% said that it was tested every six to 12 months. Only 42% of respondents said that their organization protects vessels from operational technology (OT) cyber threats, and some respondents went so far as to describe...
