The agreement was signed by the AUS Chancellor Dr. Björn Kjerfve and Chairman of SEWA Dr. Rashid Al Leem. "It is always a great pleasure for us to partner with local organizations," said Chancellor Kjerfve.

"AUS is a highly regarded university and a destination for knowledge sharing and we have had many AUS graduates join SEWA," said Dr. Al Leem. "Through this MoU, we want to bridge the gap between the real world and the theoretical one. The utility business is one of the top sectors and I feel not enough attention is being given to its research at present.

Social media posts fraught with risks How prodigiously do you post on your online profile? The multitude of your personal photos and videos are potentially scrolled and scrutinised by strangers. The visibility of your personal information risks identity theft, blackmail and access to your bank accounts. Social media may have facilitated ease of communication but it may have also rendered your identity vulnerable for fraudsters to prey on. “Anything that is posted online is theoretically visible to all,” Dr Fadi Aloul, Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the American University of Sharjah, said, “it is a one-way bridge, even if information or media were posted in private profiles, groups, or even exclusively among friends. The possibilities of it going public are endless.” A 2014 survey conducted by Kaspersky Lab and B2B International shows that 23 per cent of those surveyed post information online, which they normally wouldn’t disclose in real life, while almost every tenth user discusses private information with strangers.
