Centre’s social media regulation lacks teeth, says Supreme Court
The top court said that there is nothing in the rules to control the inappropriate content on these platforms and without legislation it may not be possible to control it.
A perusal of the Rules indicate that the Rules are more and more in the form of guidelines and have no effective mechanism for either screening or taking appropriate action for those who violate the guidelines, the bench said in its order.

Why world’s power grids are increasingly vulnerable to cyber attacks
“Essential state infrastructures like power grids and nuclear reactors have been and will continue to be a target of cyber attacks because modernization allows internet connectivity, which makes them vulnerable,” said Kim Seungjoo, a professor at Korea University’s School of Cybersecurity.
“It’s almost a natural instinct of hackers, especially the state-sponsored ones, to attack energy infrastructure because they can easily disrupt national security.”
Stand-alone cyber insurance products to benefit both insurers and policyholders:S&P
Although cyber attacks and the resulting financial losses are on the rise, the cyber insurance market is underdeveloped. Cyber cover is often bundled into existing property or liability insurance policies, and in some cases, the policies do not explicitly include or exclude cyber cover at all. This gives rise to “silent cyber”, or the risk to insurers of losses from cyber-related claims on existing property or liability insurance policies.

“We are of the view there should be some screening of these types (of content). What they are showing? They are showing pornography also,” Supreme Court Justice Ashok Bhushan said.

Citi’s $900 million mistake prompts banks to seek new safeguards
After Citigroup inadvertently wired its own funds to Revlon lenders while serving as an agent and lost its fight to recover some of the money, it was forced to restate earnings after writing down the part of the loan it now owns. Reducing such risks for future deals makes sense, said Justin Forlenza, a senior covenant analyst at Covenant Review.
After last month’s surprise court ruling that let certain Revlon creditors keep $500 million of the mistaken transfer, banks began inserting new language into loan deals that would require investors to return the money if such an error occurred again. The provisions, which were in the works before the decision, aim to strengthen the hand of administrative agents that oversee interest distributions and repayment schedules.
