Last-Minute Gift Shopping? Make sure to Stay Secure! As the Christmas countdown ticks away, our Infosec team wants to ensure your gift shopping is not just merry and bright, but safe too! Here are their top tips to protect you and your family online: 🎄 Think Before You Click: Before you unwrap that link, verify the sender’s email address and URL. Better yet, visit the site directly instead of following links in emails. 🎅 Check Your List Twice: Stick to reputable retailers. If a deal seems too good to be true, it’s probably a scam in disguise. 🎁 Use a Credit Card: Use a credit card instead of a debit card—it’s like having an extra layer of wrapping paper to protect you if something goes wrong. 📡 Say “No, No, No” to Public Wi-Fi for Payments: Using public Wi-Fi for shopping is a big no, switch to mobile data or wait until you’re home on a secure network. ❄️ Stay Frosty and Scam-Free: Be wary of unexpected messages, even if they appear to be from someone you know—verify before you reply. #WeAreRS #StaySafeOnline #HappyHolidays #InfoSec #TopTips #ChristmasTime

We're delighted to have included Ozak Ejiofor in our REflect Top 24 Role Models for 2024 list. We caught up with Ozak to hear about her career story so far and guidance for the upcoming generation of professionals. Q1. What is your greatest achievement in your career? "My greatest achievement in my career is obtaining my Ph.D. This opportunity stretched me the most, fortifying me with advanced research capabilities, critical thinking, and effective problem-solving skills. It also opened my eyes to numerous career paths in both academia and industry. These skills and insights have propelled me in every other aspect of my career, shaping my determination and self-confidence. Additionally, earning my Ph.D. enabled me to win several national prizes for my contributions to engineering. This experience not only contributed to my professional growth but also reinforced my commitment to using engineering to address real-world challenges." Q2. Who or what inspires you in your work? “The desire to succeed in whatever I do inspires me. I live by the scripture, 'Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters' (Colossians 3:23). My inquisitive nature and love for applying critical thinking drive me to find solutions to a wide range of challenges, from complex engineering problems to everyday issues. I find joy in developing new and better ways of doing things and in making improvements wherever I go. The opportunity to improve society and myself is a constant source of motivation. While I strive for excellence, I also recognize the importance of balance and acknowledge that achieving perfection may not always be feasible. Embracing continuous learning and growth allows me to adapt and refine my approach over time. Additionally, rewards and achievements fuel my determination, as I enjoy seeing the tangible benefits of my hard work. This continual cycle of effort and reward propels me forward in my endeavours.” Q3. Please provide one piece of advice for future global ethnic-majority engineers. “Find your passion and pursue it relentlessly. Seek out communities and create networks that support your journey. Understand what microaggressions are—subtle, discriminatory actions or comments that may marginalise individuals based on their race, ethnicity, or other identities—and address them assertively when you encounter them in your workplace or interactions. Be aware of tokenism—the practice of including individuals from underrepresented groups superficially, without addressing systemic inequalities. Learn to leverage these situations to your advantage and find ways to influence real and sustainable changes. Enjoy what you do. It might take you several loops to figure it out, but it's certainly worth it.” The Top 24 for 2024 list was produced in partnership with the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and Association for Black and Minority Ethnic Engineers (AFBE-UK).
