SANS Institute Brings Cybersecurity Training and Expert-Led Sessions to GISEC Global 2025
Dubai, UAE, 8th May 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, SANS Institute, the global leader in cybersecurity training and certification, is participating in GISEC Global 2025 (6-8 May 2025) at the Dubai World Trade Center. This year, SANS Institute joins GISEC Global as a strategic partner, highlighting the company’s long-term commitment to developing cybersecurity talent in the region.
From May 6 to 8, SANS also will host the SANS GISEC Academy. Located in Hall 4, SANS GISEC Academy is a community-led initiative offering three days of free-to-attend technical training sessions led by SANS Certified Instructors. These sessions are part of SANS’ mission to upskill defenders and contribute meaningfully to the UAE’s national and regional cybersecurity posture.
Each day will focus on a key cybersecurity domain. On day 1, instructor Jean-François Maes will lead a full-day track on Offensive Operations, covering topics such as malware evasion, OSINT exposure in cloud environments, and common vulnerabilities discovered over a decade of penetration testing. Day 2 shifts to Cyber Defense with Ian Reynolds, who will explore deception-based defenses, the role of AI and deepfakes in modern threat landscapes, and advanced threat hunting techniques. Day 3 will be led by Michael Hoffman, focusing on ICS/OT cybersecurity, with insights drawn from real-world incidents such as the Colonial Pipeline and Ukraine grid attacks. The sessions are tailored for cybersecurity professionals, analysts, SOC managers, and decision-makers looking to enhance their tactical and strategic defense skills.
“In the Middle East and beyond, digital infrastructure is under increasing pressure from AI-powered threats that are more deceptive, adaptive, and persistent,” said Ned Baltagi, Managing Director for the Middle East, Turkey, and Africa, SANS Institute. “From deepfake-enabled fraud to intelligent ransomware strains that evade detection, cybersecurity teams must shift from reactive defense to intelligence-driven prevention. At SANS, we’re focused on equipping professionals with the practical skills and threat context they need to defend against this next wave of AI-fueled attacks. Cybersecurity is not just a professional responsibility, but a shared priority for national safety and resilience.”

Water Quality Issues in Daily Life
Imagine walking into your kitchen, ready to pour yourself a glass of water to quench your thirst. At that moment, the clarity and freshness of the water are crucial. However, many people may not realize that tap water in their homes could contain various hidden pollutants such as residual chlorine, heavy metals, bacteria, and more. These issues may be lurking in the water, affecting health. Many households opt to install whole-house water filters to remove these harmful substances, ensuring clean water quality.
However, simply installing a water filter is not enough. Regular maintenance of the filter and timely replacement of the filter cartridge are equally important. In this article, we will delve into how to properly maintain a whole-house water filter and understand the recommended frequency for replacing the filter cartridge.
Why is Regular Filter Replacement Necessary?
The filter cartridge is the key component of a whole-house water filter, responsible for removing harmful substances from the water. Over time, the filter accumulates pollutants from the water, reducing its filtration effectiveness. Therefore, regularly replacing the filter cartridge is essential to ensure clean water quality.
Failure to replace the filter cartridge on time can lead to the following issues:
- Reduced Filtration Effectiveness: As the filter accumulates too many pollutants, its filtration efficiency decreases, and harmful substances in the water cannot be effectively removed.
- Water Quality Issues: If the filter fails to properly filter the water, the water may develop an unpleasant taste or become cloudy.
- Bacterial Growth: A filter that has not been replaced for an extended period may become a breeding ground for bacteria, which could lead to secondary contamination of the water and pose health risks.
Filter Replacement Frequency
The frequency of filter cartridge replacement for whole-house water filters depends on the level of water contamination and the amount of water used in the household. Generally, the recommended replacement time can be guided by the following suggestions:
- For typical household use: It is generally advisable to replace the filter cartridge every six months to one year.
- For more precise calculations: A whole-house water filter cartridge can filter up to 100 tons of water. In our water bills, each unit of water used is equivalent to one ton. Since whole-house filters are typically installed after the water tower and at the main water inlet of the house, ensuring that all incoming water is effectively filtered, you can use your monthly water bill to estimate the replacement cycle. For instance, every 100 units of water consumption can be used as a benchmark to determine the replacement cycle.
- Convenience in Tracking: Monthly water bill tracking can be cumbersome, but CEO offers a calculation and reminder service. By providing us with two consecutive water bills, we can help you accurately predict the filter replacement cycle. We will also send a phone reminder when it’s time to replace the filter, making the process a comfortable service experience.
You might ask, “Why don’t you just replace the filter for me?” CEO’s whole-house water filter employs a unique quick-release technology, making filter replacement as easy as tightening a plastic bottle cap. No tools are required, and it’s effortless—no more risk of scratching your nails. With a foolproof design, you don’t have to worry about installing it incorrectly. Replacing the filter can be as simple as having a drink, allowing everyone to DIY with ease.
How to Determine if the Filter Cartridge Needs to Be Replaced?
In addition to replacing the filter based on its usage time, changes in water quality can also indicate when it’s time to replace the filter cartridge. Here are some common signs:
- Water Quality Decline: If the taste or odor of the water becomes unpleasant, it could be a sign that the filter’s effectiveness has decreased.
- Slower Water Flow: If the water flow rate decreases due to the filter accumulating too many pollutants, it’s a clear sign that the filter needs replacing.
- Discoloration of the Filter: If the filter cartridge shows visible dirt or a darker color, it’s time to replace it.
These changes typically signal that the filtration capacity of the cartridge has diminished, and a replacement is necessary.
How to Maintain a Whole-House Water Filter?
In addition to regular filter replacement, proper daily maintenance of the whole-house water filter is also crucial. Proper maintenance can extend the lifespan of the filter and keep it working efficiently. Here are some simple maintenance tips:
- Keep the Filter Clean: Regularly wipe down the exterior of the filter to prevent dust and debris buildup, which helps maintain the unit’s efficiency.
- Check Water Pressure: Both excessively high and low water pressure can affect the filter’s operation. Periodically check the water pressure in your home to ensure it remains within normal limits.
- Monitor Water Quality: Use water testing tools to check for any changes in water quality. If abnormalities are detected, take action immediately and replace the filter if needed.
Innovative Technology to Enhance Filter Performance
With advancements in technology, modern whole-house water filters are not just limited to filtering large particles from water but can effectively remove a wide range of harmful substances. Many advanced filters on the market now feature innovative technologies, such as more efficient carbon fiber filter cartridges that can remove harmful chemicals, residual chlorine, heavy metals, and even potentially carcinogenic trihalomethanes.
Water filter systems even use patented structural technology (Patent Certificate M638367), ensuring the filter cartridge remains in its optimal position no matter the angle of the water pipe, which guarantees stable filtration performance. This design not only enhances installation flexibility but also significantly improves filtering efficiency.
Healthy Living Starts with Water
Choosing the right whole-house water filter can improve the water quality in your home and protect the health of every family member. By regularly replacing the filter cartridge and maintaining the filter system, you can ensure that every sip of water is clean and safe. Water quality is vital to our health, and a good water filter is the first line of defense in protecting your family’s well-being.
With continuous innovation in technology and design, CEO combines efficient water filtration technology with user-friendly design, providing families with a safer and more convenient water experience. Choose CEO for a healthier and safer foundation for your home.

Press Release
CGTN: A shared memory of Anti-Fascist War: China, Russia eye a more equal, orderly multipolar world
CGTN publishes an article on how China and Russia commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Soviet Union’s Great Patriotic War and advocate jointly promoting a more equal and orderly multipolar world.
At a time when the world is grappling with a resurgence in unilateralism, economic coercion and hegemonic mentality, the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War, better known globally as World War II, serves as a powerful reminder of the world’s hard-won peace and stability.
On Wednesday, Chinese President Xi Jinping traveled to Russia for a state visit and to attend celebrations marking the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Soviet Union’s Great Patriotic War. Both China and Russia made significant sacrifices and major historic contributions to secure victory in the war.
Securing hard-won peace
“The Chinese and Russian peoples are both great peoples defined by heroic legacies. Eighty years ago, our peoples won the anti-fascist war through heroic struggles,” President Xi wrote in a signed article in the Russian Gazette newspaper ahead of his arrival in Russia.
“During the World Anti-Fascist War, the Chinese and Russian peoples fought shoulder to shoulder and supported each other.”
The war involved almost every part of the world, with more than 100 million killed or wounded in what was described as the most destructive conflict in human history.
In 2015, when China celebrated the 70th anniversary of its victory in World War II, Xi presented medals to Chinese veterans and representatives from Russia and other countries who assisted Chinese soldiers on the battlefields.
Nikolai Chuikov, the grandson of Soviet General Marshal Vasily Chuikov, was among those who received a peace medal from Xi. “Of all the honors I have won, I hold the highest regard for the peace medal,” he said.
Promoting international justice
As hegemonism and protectionism once again rear their ugly heads, the world is gripped by an increasingly intricate array of challenges and uncertainties. Yet under Xi’s leadership, China has adhered to an independent foreign policy of peace, played an active role in UN peacekeeping missions, and solidified its friendships and partnerships with countries worldwide.
Xi urged China and Russia to solidify the hard-won peace and jointly promote international justice and order.
“China and the Soviet Union were among the first to sign the UN Charter. Our permanent membership in the UN Security Council is a product of history, earned through blood and sacrifice,” he wrote in the signed article.
“The more turbulent and complex the international situation becomes, the more we must uphold and defend the authority of the UN, firmly uphold the UN-centered international system, the international order underpinned by international law, and the basic norms of international relations based on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and steadily promote an equal and orderly multipolar world and a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization,” the article read.
For Xi, peace and development are inseparable. He once observed that the tree of peace does not grow on barren land, and the fruit of development is not produced amid flames of war. The “golden key” to a secure and stable future, as he pointed out, is to advance sustainable development.
“We should be guardians of historical memory, partners in national development and rejuvenation, and champions of global fairness and justice, and work together to forge a brighter future for humanity,” he wrote.
