The EU’s fight against cybercrime continues – attacks against information systems

"The EU’s fight against cybercrime continues – attacks against information systems | Herbert Smith Freehills – FSR notes: Today is the deadline for transposition into national law of the Directive on attacks against information systems (the “Directive“), which came into force on 24 August 2013. This Directive forms part of the EU’s continuing efforts to keep pace in its fight against the ever evolving nature of cybercrime, and in particular, the increasingly sophisticated and large-scale forms of attack against information systems. It updated (and replaced) minimum rules, established by the Council Framework Decision 2005/222/JHA (the “Framework Decision”), relating to the definition of relevant criminal offences and sanctions across Member States and the improved cooperation between competent authorities."

Chapter 1: Section 1: Introduction To Personality Theory And Development | AllPsych

"A trait is a relatively permanent individual characteristic.  For example, most of know people who are outgoing, friendly, confident, or shy.  When we describe these people, we use these traits to better understand their personality; to better understand who they are.  A state, on the other hand, is a temporary change in one's personality.  Examples of states might be angry, depressed, fearful, or anxious.  We typically use states to describe a person's reaction to something."
