The approach that the organization uses to manage its cyber-risk to its workforce, information, systems, and networks is paramount to ensure sustainability and continuity in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Improving cyber-resiliency in the organization reduces the chance of future threats and attacks and builds better capability. Cyber resilience involves continuous operations, good governance, and diligence supported by the right security strategy of a computer security incident response team (CSIRT) that can protect government operations and control cyber-risks. CSIRT can build better resiliency at the decentralized provincial government level, and contribute to cyber awareness amongst the workforce, public, and other government departments. A CSIRT can further contribute to resilience to the organization by analyzing the threats and attacks, developing countermeasures for the future in protecting its systems and networks from threat actors.

Health as a component of the Human Development Index (HDI) has a life expectancy rate as its indicator. Increased life expectancy can raise HDI. An allocation of health budget can increase life expectancy. The results of regression analysis on the health budgets of regencies/towns to influence the life expectancy rate showed that indirect expenditure, direct personnel expenditure, capital expenditure, and spending on goods and services had a significant and positive effect on life expectancy rate. One objective of this study is to formulate strategies that can be used to improve life expectancy through a budget allocation. Several alternative strategies have been formulated and put into a sequence from the highest value. The strategy of the first priority selected is the strength-opportunity strategy with its minor strategy, namely, giving financial assistance to the Regency/Town governments through budget allocations with the right target, time and amount as well as supervision over its implementation with the main focus to reduce mortality.The next strategy of the first priority is to increase cooperation with the private sector. Another strategy that has been formulated for the West Java Provincial Government to carry out is to consider the order of priority and time of implementation.Keywords: life expectancy, budget, health, Human Development Index ABSTRAK Dimensi kesehatan sebagai salah satu komponen Indeks Pembangunan manusia (IPM) memiliki Angka Harapan Hidup (AHH) sebagai indikatornya. Meningkatkan AHH dapat meningkatkan IPM. Alokasi anggaran kesehatan dapat meningkatkan AHH. Hasil analisis regresi yang dilakukan terhadap anggaran urusan kesehatan kabupaten kota dalam mempengaruhi AHH, menunjukkan bahwa belanja tidak langsung, belanja langsung pegawai, belanja modal, dan belanja barang jasa berpengaruh secara positif dan signifikan terhadap AHH. Salah satu tujuan penelitian ini adalah merumuskan strategi yang dapat digunakan untuk meningkatkan AHH melalui alokasi anggaran kesehatan. Beberapa alternatif strategi telah dirumuskan kemudian diurutkan berdasarkan nilai yang tertinggi. Strategi prioritas pertama yang terpilih yaitu strategi strength-opportunity dengan strategi kecilnya yaitu memberikan bantuan keuangan kepada pemerintah kabupaten/kota sesuai dengan alokasi anggaran yang tepat sasaran, tepat waktu dan tepat jumlah disertai dengan pengawasan pelaksanaannya dengan fokus utama menurunkan tingkat kematian. Strategi prioritas pertama berikutnya adalah meningkatkan kerjasama dengan pihak swasta. Strategi lainnya yang telah dirumuskan dapat dilakukan Pemerintah Provinsi Jawa Barat dengan memperhatikan urutan prioritas dan pengaturan waktu pelaksanaan.Kata kunci: Angka Harapan Hidup, anggaran, kesehatan, Indeks Pembangunan Manusia

The right to good governance is a right inalienable to the democratic process. Content analysis was used as the data source for this paper. This study would attempt to resolve the questions on the intricate connection between the right to protest and the right to good governance in Nigeria and what this means for national security and international law. In this essay, it was argued that the international law space is shrinking for holding the democratic process accountable in sovereign states. The significance of the essay is to suggest a new direction for the engagement of international law mechanisms on human rights and for the provision of policy recommendations for good governance and law enforcement.

Background: Improving good governance in the pharmaceutical sector is a valuable priority for improving access to essential medicines. Transparency as a means for good governance was the focus of this study. The objective was to evaluate different sectors of the pharmaceutical regulatory sector of Iran from the aspect of transparency. Awareness of the current situation may assist policymakers in making the right decisions. Methods: The aim of this methodology was to present only quantitative measurement but to gather qualitative information as well. The study was carried from November 2016 to July 2017. The questionnaires of the assessment instrument, which the World Health Organization (WHO) produced for measuring transparency in the public pharmaceutical sector, was used. The interviewees were among managers and staff at different levels of the Food and Drug Administration (IFDA) of Iran and its clients. Results: Medicines registration and distribution of medicines’ scores in the 10-point rating system means that they are minimally vulnerable to corruption. Besides, medicine promotion control and procurement of medical products got an acceptable score, which means that they are marginally vulnerable to corruption. On the other hand, qualitative findings and observation of the evidence presented by key informants proved the sufficient legal capacity for transparency in almost all sections. The controversial issue was the ‘conflict of interests,’ which was not anticipated in some cases. Conclusion: It is valuable to know if Iran’s medicine regulatory sector is transparent In order to improve good governance, transparency should be maximized in all sectors, and this is possible by implementing mechanized actions and online tools.

Data mode “good governance” developed in the last century for process of sustainable base system, providing basic information and on-line services, supports the development, challenges and opportunities in the context of globalization and integration. In this paper I discuss a framework for the design of e-Local Governance (eLG) that integrates Information System (IS), Geographical Information System (GIS) and Atlas with focus on ethnic minorities in Vietnam. The design framework is based on various classifications such categories as sex, age, ethnic group, education background and income. The database system is built to enhance the Committee for Ethnic Minority Affairs (CEMA) capabilities in the planning and decision making process by providing the authorities with data, internet GIS, internet communication and some ecological economic models to disseminate results to the ethnic minorities. The unique feature of the CEMADATA using GIS is that it helps users not only to improve the public services and to provide information and encourage ethnic minorities to participate in decision making processes, but also to support the competency-based training for IT staff

AbstractThe public sector, private firms, business community, and civil society are generating data that is high in volume, veracity, velocity and comes from a diversity of sources. This kind of data is known as big data. Public Administrations (PAs) pursue big data as “new oil” and implement data-centric policies to transform data into knowledge, to promote good governance, transparency, innovative digital services, and citizens’ engagement in public policy. From the above, the Government Big Data Ecosystem (GBDE) emerges. Managing big data throughout its lifecycle becomes a challenging task for governmental organizations. Despite the vast interest in this ecosystem, appropriate big data management is still a challenge. This study intends to fill the above-mentioned gap by proposing a data lifecycle framework for data-driven governments. Through a Systematic Literature Review, we identified and analysed 76 data lifecycles models to propose a data lifecycle framework for data-driven governments (DaliF). In this way, we contribute to the ongoing discussion around big data management, which attracts researchers’ and practitioners’ interest.
