This study investigated women, migration, decent work and vulnerabilities in Africa. Essentially, it is on record that for the last few years more female migrants have been migrating independently for work, education and as heads of households. Despite these improvements, female migrants may still face stronger discrimination, are more vulnerable to mistreatment, and can experience double discrimination as both migrants and as women in their host country in comparison to male migrants. Nonetheless, male migrants are also exposed to vulnerabilities in the migration processes. For example, records have it that every day, women across Libya who have been subjected to forced marriages, sexual abuse, and other dire situations, leave their home countries for the prospect of a better life and with longing for Europe’s safety, they are willing to face an equally perilous route ahead, with the constant risk of being returned to Libyan detention centres, where they are abused, starved, and tortured (Palmucci, 2021). It is based on this that this study was carried out using investigative analysis of women victims who are presently returnees to their home country (Nigeria). Through identified women returnees from some of these countries, most especially Libya, 15 women returnees interacted to share their experiences while outside the country for greener pastures. These 15 women returnees were able to link the authors of this study to other 29 women returnees to Nigeria in the last three to two years.

Według raportu Cisco zagadnienia takie jak cyfryzacja, bezpieczeństwo IT oraz Internet rzeczy to zjawiska, które wyznaczały kierunek rozwoju poszczególnych branż gospodarki w 2016 r. i będą szczególnie istotne w przyszłości. Wśród nich znajduje się Internet rzeczy, wobec którego oczekuje się, że znajdzie wiele zastosowań w różnych dziedzinach, m.in. w energetyce, transporcie, przemyśle, opiece zdrowotnej. Jego zastosowania usprawniają nasze życie, ale stwarzają też nowe zagrożenia i stanowią wyzwanie dla architektów systemów bezpieczeństwa. Eksperci są zdania, że problemy z bezpieczeństwem IT sprzed lat powracają obecnie w nowych urządzeniach i dają hakerom wiele możliwości do cyberataków. Celem artykułu jest przegląd wybranych przypadków użycia Internetu rzeczy, opis zagrożeń dla cyberbezpieczeństwa wynikających z poszerzania dostępu do sieci nowych urządzeń, a także przegląd istniejących zabezpieczeń.

According to the Cisco report, issues such as digitization, IT security and the Internet of Things are phenomenon, which determined the direction of development of the economy sectors in 2016 and will be particularly important in the coming years. Among them is the IoT which is expected to find many applications in various areas, like energy, transport, industry, construction, health care. Its applications enhance our lives, but also pose new threats and is a challenge for IT security architects. Experts think that the IT security problems from the past return now with new devices and provide many opportunities for hackers to cyberattacks. The aim of the article is a review of selected cases of the usage of the IoT, description of threats to cybersecurity resulting from widening access of new devices to the Internet, and an overview of the existing safeguards.
