Quantum Motors. Industrias Quantum Motors SA is a vehicle manufacturing company based in Cochabamba, Bolivia and founded by José Carlos Márquez and Carlos Suroco Deiters in 2017. The company originally made mini electric dump trucks for the mining industry. It also makes motorcycles and bicycles.

Electric cars
The company obtained a license to manufacture a small Chinese electric car, very similar in shape to the Henan Camp Industrial Co Ltd Robeta electric car, which Quantum adapted to suit Latin American conditions. The cars were first manufactured in Bolivia in 2019 with 60% imported components and 40% local. The E2 and E3 models can fit up to three passengers and have a maximum speed of .

The company has expanded its operations into Peru, Paraguay, Mexico and El Salvador. Agreement was reached with the Mexican government in 2022 for Quantum to manufacture its new E4 model there for the Mexican market. Quantum  is working with the Mexican company Potencia Industrial SA de CV.

In Peru, Quantum marketed the Colibri, a three-wheel electric vehicle. Quantum began operations in El Salvador in 2021 and announced it was going to build a factory there in 2022 producing the E5 model.

In 2022 Quantum began discussions with the Cuban government about the possibility of supply its electric vehicles and other products. These discussions were ongoing in 2023 with Quantum intending to show its products at the 10th Latin American Integration Association (ExpoAladi-2023) in Havana.

By 2023 the company had sold about 350 cars in Bolivia, but was finding it difficult to compete against the fuel subsidized fossil fuel vehicles.

Batteries
One of the challenges for Quantum was obtaining low cost lithium batteries. Up until 2022 when it established Quantum Batteries it had to rely on China for its supply.

Electric bikes
Quantum has partnered with the Chinese Company Yadea, who makes electric bikes that are imported by Quantum. Quantum also markets Super Soco electric bikes under licence.

Benjamin Berl Lipsner. Benjamin Berl Lipsner (September 15, 1887 – December 24, 1971) was an American military officer and civil servant. He served as the first supervisor of the Post Office Department's airmail service from September to December 1918. He was known as the "father of commercial aviation".

Early life
Benjamin Berl Lipsner was born on September 15, 1887, in Chicago, Illinois. He graduated from Armour Institute in Chicago with a degree in mechanical engineering.

Career
During World War I, Lipsner served as a captain of the United States Army Signal Corps's Air Service Production. He supervised the mechanical upkeep of the planes used for airmail service. He retired from the Army in August 1918 when the airmail service transferred to the Post Office Department. Lipsner then served as the first supervisor of the Post Office Department's airmail service starting on August 12, 1918. The service initially operated from New York to Washington, D.C. During his tenure as superintendent, there was a New York to Chicago pathfinding mission in September 1918 for the airmail service. The test flights did not immediately lead to an extension of service to Chicago, but brought public support to the new civilian airmail service. He resigned from his position on December 5, 1918, following conflict with Second Assistant Postmaster General Otto Praeger about hiring and the purchase of new equipment. In Lipsner's resignation letter, which was printed in newspapers throughout the country, he was critical of the Post Office Department.

Lipsner joined the private aviation industry in December 1918. He also served as a consultant to oil companies and airlines.

Lipsner wrote The Airmail, Jennies to Jets in 1951 with Len Hilts.

Personal life

Lipsner married Rose E. They had two sons and two daughters, Milton A., Jerome S., Charlotte and Shirley. Lipsner lived at 5650 North Sheridan Road in Chicago.

Lipsner died on December 24, 1971, at the Veterans Affairs Research Hospital in Chicago. He was buried at Rosehill Cemetery in Chicago.

Legacy
Lipsner was known as the "father of commercial aviation".

In 1982, Lipsner's estate donated to the Smithsonian Institution over 500 aero philatelic covers, twelve scrapbooks and biographical materials. These donations are now in the possession of the National Postal Museum.

Security orchestration. Security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) is a group of cybersecurity technologies that allow organizations to respond to some incidents automatically. It collects inputs monitored by the security operations team such as alerts from the SIEM system, TIP, and other security technologies and helps define, prioritize, and drive standardized incident response activities.

Organizations uses SOAR platforms to improve the efficiency of physical and digital security operations. SOAR enables administrators to handle security alerts without the need for manual intervention. When the network tool detects a security event, depending on its nature, SOAR can raise an alert to the administrator or take some other action.

Components 
"Orchestration" connects the different security tools and systems of the Information system. It integrates custom-built applications with built-in security tools, so they all work with each other. It also connects diverse endpoints, firewalls and behavior analysis tools.

"Automation" takes the huge amount of information generated through orchestration and analyzes it through machine learning processes. SOAR handle a lot of manual tasks of log analysis and can also handle ticket requests, vulnerability checks and auditing processes.

"Incident response" allows security teams to react when a potential threat is indicated. This component also handles post-incident activities such as threat intelligence sharing in an automated way.

Playbooks and runbooks 

SOAR allows security administrators to define the potential incidents and the response, thanks to playbooks and runbooks.

A playbook is a document that describes how to verify a cybersecurity incident and how the incident should be responded. The purpose of the playbook is to document what the runbook should do. Playbook can be used as a manual backup in case the SOAR fails.

A runbook implements the playbook data into an automated tool so that it performs predefined actions to mitigate the threat.
