Cloud-Native Security and Compliance in Life and Annuities Insurance: Challenges and Best Practices (Published)

The emergence of Cloud-native technologies helps life and annuity insurance companies run faster and grow better while providing better services to their customers. As business moves to cloud-native technologies, they face major security dangers from outside parties along with internal staff while meeting GDPR HIPAA SOX, and PCI DSS requirements. This research explains security dangers that insurance companies face and suggests Zero Trust, ID & Access control, data encryption, and SIEM as effective defenses. The plan describes how to face compliance needs by auditing regulations, inspecting external risks, and data placement to match different regulations worldwide. The paper uses actual industry events and industry practice information to show how AI creates security challenges and how blockchain helps protect systems. This study presents helpful advice that lets insurers safely build cloud-native systems together with meeting regulatory requirements and strengthening stakeholder trust.

School Type and Compliance with Continuous Assessment Modalities in Secondary Schools in South-South Nigeria (Published)

This study investigated school type and compliance with continuous assessment modalities in secondary schools in South-South Nigeria. Five research questions and five hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Descriptive survey design was considered suitable and adopted for this study. Multi-stage sampling procedure was adopted to select 36 schools from the six states in South-South Nigeria and the participants were randomly selected from the population of schools. A researcher-developed instrument known as “Continuous Assessment Modalities Questionnaire” with reliability index of 0.71 based on Cronbach alpha reliability method was used to elicit data from 210 teachers from the 36 schools for analysis. Descriptive statistics (mean) was used to answer the research questions while analysis of variance was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 alpha level. Findings of the study showed that many federal, state and private secondary schools in South-South Nigeria complied with continuous assessment modalities while some did not. The study concluded that many federal, state and private secondary schools in South-South Nigeria complied with continuous assessment modalities and schools not complying with continuous assessment modalities should start doing so as effective assessment of students shows them their level of academic performance and pinpoints to them areas where improvement are needed. It is recommended among others, that re-orientation and workshops should be organized for teachers to create awareness on the total compliance with continuous assessment modalities for continuous improvement in education.
