Nuclear security refers to a range of actions intended to stop illicit proliferation and nuclear terrorism, as well as to prevent unauthorised access to nuclear materials, infrastructure, and technology. The role of non-state actors has grown in importance in the current environment. Because of their adaptability, secrecy, and potential access to nuclear materials, non-state actors— which can include everything from terrorist groups to criminal networks—pose serious dangers to nuclear security.

The A.Q. Khan network is a prime illustration of the illicit nuclear trade, in which the transfer of nuclear technology and experience was made possible by a state-sponsored proliferation network. These networks serve as a warning about the perils of unlawful proliferation and the necessity of strong international enforcement and collaboration protocols.

The Indus Water Treaty is a water-sharing accord between India and Pakistan, signed in 1960 and facilitated by the World Bank. The agreement partitioned the six principal rivers of the Indus basin between the two nations, designating the western rivers (Indus, Chenab, Jhelum) to Pakistan and the eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas, Sutlej) to India. The convention aimed to address conflicts regarding transboundary water resources following the division. Nonetheless, discrepancies arise over the categorization of some tributaries, such as the Kabul River, which originates in Afghanistan and merges with the Indus in Pakistan, and the Beas River, which is classified independently while being a tributary of the Sutlej. The document examines these inconsistencies and underscores the necessity of potentially amending the treaty to address equitable water distribution in light of evolving dynamics and water demands in the region. Clarifying tributary status may enhance water management in accordance with the treaty's goals of secure and sustainable river use for the basin nations. 

Privacy and Cybersecurity are two main concerns in the Information Age, where large amount of sensitive information is being generated, archived and transferred every milli second. Even if Privacy and Cybersecurity are two sides of same coin, privacy refers to the user’s capability to secure themselves and protect their personal information whereas Cybersecurity concentrates on the protection of information system from any unauthorized activities, access, use or destruction in order to provide confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Once this difference is acknowledged, one can see that privacy cannot be guaranteed without security.
