		Do you work in an open-plan office? Chances are that you do, as this office layout 
has become more and 
more popular in recent years. While some people are happy with the arrangement, many experience problems 
in the work environment, mainly due to the ensuing noise. To promote wider understanding of acoustic 
problems in open-plan offices and improve their design, ISO has published ISO 3382-3:2012, <i>Acoustics 
– Measurement of room acoustic parameters – Open-plan offices</i>.

		Organizations in the financial sector are moving towards more open networks and the provision of e-banking and mobile-banking services, which means they face new challenges from information security threats, such as phishing, malware or cyber-attacks. To meet these challenges, an adequate 
information 
security management system should be adopted by these organizations to prevent and reduce the risks 
and impacts to financial and customer data and to ensure that an effective level of information security 
and privacy is offered with their products and services.
