  • Public Security Intelligence Agency warns of cyber-attack threat before Tokyo 2020

    Japan’s Public Security Intelligence Agency has warned in its annual end-of-year report that cyber-attacks targeting next year’s Olympic and Paralympic Games in Tokyo are among the biggest threats the country faces.

    In the report released regarding the security situation in Japan and overseas, the Agency claimed that cyber-attacks may interfere with Olympic operations as prior host nations have become targets of such attacks in recent years.

    Earlier this week, Tokyo 2020 published a warning alerting of an ongoing phishing campaign delivering emails designed to look like they are coming from Japanese organizers.

    “We have recently detected emails disguised to look like they are coming from a Tokyo 2020 staff member,” a warning message from Tokyo 2020 said.

    “Although the email may look official and legitimate, if you have no reason to receive such an email or if the content is questionable, you should not click on the link or open any attached files.”

    This vintage video from the early 1990s shows why the sport of water polo is the perfect compliment to swimming and now, with youth programs like flippaball in Australia and Splashball in the USA, the sport can help swimming retain athletes after swimming lessons by beginning programs that will keep young athletes in the pool rather than losing them to other sports after swimming lessons. Featured are some of the greatest coaches and swimmers in history including George Haines, Laurie Lawrence, Jon Urbanchek, Mike Bottom, Brad Schumacher, Pablo Morales, John Naber, Matt Biondi, Jill Sterkel.
