Taransvar is a Norwegian registered NGO aiming to change the way mental treatment is handled globally by aligning it with modern science about how the brain works. Knowledge, memories, experiences, skills, habits and personality all work the same way. All mental problems are also included here. One particularly interesting feature that teaches us a lot about how the brain works is the process of learning and then later getting rusty and warming up again. Becoming an addict is a process or learning. Rehabilitating is about getting rusty and relapsing is about warming up an old skill.
We know from sports that the best way to change is by being away from destructive triggers, fully focus about learning better ways to respond and being part of a good team. That way, we can get good response warmed up and get the destructive parts of life rusty. A football team could fire their coach and instead offer monthly therapy where the players talked about how they missed or what they felt when they got a red card. They could also offer the players drugs – which would certainly affect their performance. We think it’s exactly the same with mental problems. We use the same brain when we play football as when we’re into addiction or depression. It shouldn’t be a surprise that it works the same way.
One skill we’ll be providing opportunities in is cyber security.
Join UsWhy is cyber crime an escalating threat? We think the main reason is lack of good governance. All internet users are left to protect themselves without help from the government.
So what can we do about this? We think the best solution is by bringing together those who know if traffic is infected or not with those who sent it. If firewalls send message back to the owner of the IP address, consecutive traffic to units in our network can be tagged and thus greatly enhance the security. To be successful, hackers need to be allowed to build their botnets with thousands of computers that try all kinds of methods to break into our systems. If we deny them that, cyber crime will no longer be sustainable.
So this is about facilitating and incentivization of ISPs and other service providers in the network to do what’s right. Our “Gatekeeper” software demonstrates how this can be done and is scalable to any network if ported to proper hardware.
Our team leverages state-of-the-art technology to design systems that detect and neutralize cyber threats before they impact vital operations. From education initiatives to secure infrastructure development, we cover it all.
