After the product is manufactured and delivered to the customer, it needs to be scanned to ensure that the nanoparticles are in the places they are supposed to be.Last year, Researchers were able to hack into a 3D printer that was printing propellers for a drone. Airbus builds some of the vital components for its aircraft models and if this were to happen on a passenger commercial flight, the results could have been tragic.The second method is almost similar to the first — only the physical movements of the printer are compared with every assignment. If there’s a slight irregularity, then the printer that printed it has been hacked or tampered with. 3D printing is gathering higher adoption in the manufacturing industry and manufacturers wall paper Suppliers need to be sure that their printers are safe from hackers with malicious intentions of watching the world burn. They accessed the blueprint of the propeller that the printer was using and embedded a minor flaw undetectable to the human eye.With inputs from Motherboard(source). 3D printers have been the latest object of obsession for the hacker community and the world has a potential to be adversely affected by hacked 3D printed products. Whether it’s a smartphone, computer, smart TV, or even a Nuclear power plant, if it’s connected to the Internet, someone sitting hundreds of millions of miles away in some remote location can get access to them and put your life on a toss. These gold nanoparticles will be embedded in the filament used to make the products. The result was that the drone took flight with those flawed propellers and crashed within minutes of its flight.Thankfully, if something can be hacked, then it can also be un-hacked.With major cyber attacks taking place in the recent history, the world now knows that nothing in this world is safe. Researchers from the USENIX Security Symposium in Vancouver have uncovered three ways to secure 3D printers from the wrath of hackers. The first method involves recording the audio of a 3D printer working on an assignment and then comparing it with all other assignments for that particular product. The third method is where they use gold nanoparticles to detect the irregularities. If there’s a mismatch between the audio recordings, then defective products could be prevented from reaching out to the consumers. Luckily, this was an unmanned drone that caused no harm to anyone.With these methods, it will be easier to ensure that products are delivered to the consumers without containing any irregularities embedded by some hacker guy in a hoodie

The reasons for these differences are that the cost of production varies due to many factors including the age of machines, capacity of plant, level of automation and manpower employed," Meghwal said.The scheduled commercial banks can also install off-site ATMs without permission of the RBI subject to certain conditions, he added.Gangwar said the government has advised banks to deploy micro ATMs in rural areas in all sub-service areas across the country.As on September 30, 2016 there were 2,11,594 ATMs of banks and 14,324 white label ATMs working across the country..

"There are 1,79,614 ATMs which have been recalibrated till November 30, 2016," Minister of State for Finance Santosh Kumar Gangwar said in a written reply to the Lok Sabha.New Delhi: Almost 85 per cent of countrys cash dispensing machines had been recalibrated to fit the new notes till November 30 and the government has also advised banks to set up micro ATMs in rural areas to meet the cash need post demonetisation, Parliament was informed today.In a separate questions reply in the House on cost of printing currency, Minister of State for Finance Arjun Ram Meghwal said the rates paid for printing of banknotes by different presses are different.On being asked about the norms to set up ATMs, he said scheduled commercial banks, excluding regional rural banks, do not need the RBI permission to install ATMs at branches and extension counters.

Citing that the "proposed graphic health warnings have the potential to severely affect Indian farmers and Indian companies with gains for unscrupulous elements who manufacture and sell illicit tobacco and foreign countries from where these goods are smuggled into India, the committee suggested efforts be made for ‘discouraging" tobacco use and to find and promote alternatives for workers involved in the industry..The committee accused the health ministry of not having consulted various stakeholders before coming out with the amended rules of 2014, and suggested a "national tobacco control policy" be framed with well-defined objectives. We will not change our course," a senior official told digital printing materials this newspaper. The tobacco warnings were put off last year following the committee’s recommendation in its interim report."If 85 per cent of area is earmarked for printing specified health warnings, there is virtually no space left for printing the brand logo, name and address of the manufacturer, the number of bidis, etc as required under the rules," it said."The government is complying with the court’s order to implement the earlier notification. The parliamentary report also said that for the bidi industry, which according to them is a "unique feature of the country, specific to India only", the government should "reconsider" its decision to cover the bidi industry and said in their case it will be viable to increase the size of warnings up to 50 per cent on one side of a bidi packet and for chewing tobacco, zarda, khaini, misri, etc. This final report will now be sent to the court, and unless the court intervenes and orders us to do otherwise, the present situation will prevail
