Human post-editing of machine translation output can save clients 30-50% versus the cost of full human translation. Linguistic Systems' achievement of ISO 18587 Certification can reassure clients of the quality of the post-editing process for the company's Ai Translate by LSI solution.

BOSTON (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 14, 2019
Linguistic Systems, Inc. (LSI) announces that it has achieved ISO 18587 certification for the quality of its Ai Translate by LSI machine translation post-editing process. The certification applies to the quality of the human post-editing process and output for Ai Translate by LSI Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) as well as Ai-based Neural Machine Translation (NMT).
The importance of the certification is that clients of Ai Translate by LSI and Linguistic Systems can feel confident about the quality and clarity of machine-translated content when they opt to enhance it with human post-editing. Linguistic Systems maintains a carefully screened and certified network of 7,500 translators, and the company offers 6 quality levels to fit specific project needs and budgets. Machine translation plus human post-editing (certified by the ISO 18587 standard) is often 30-50% less than full human translation.
AI Translate by LSI is a unique, secure, translation services solution. The solution has nearly a decade of experience supporting more than 1,000 users and hundreds of millions of translated pages. Clients include major AmLaw 100 and other international law firms, leading eDiscovery service companies, government agencies, and Fortune 500 corporations.
Ai Translate by LSI includes a proprietary, secure, best-in-class, SaaS application and set of services that enable clients with a high volume of foreign language content to translate it quickly, accurately, and more affordably than using traditional methods. Ai Translate is also available as the Ai Translate Plugin for Relativity — serving clients of all supported versions of Relativity and RelativityOne.
Ai Translate by LSI includes all of the following:

Ability to order human translation from and to as many as 120 languages by leveraging human translation services from Linguistic System's carefully screened and certified network of 7,500 translators;

88 proprietary machine translation (MT) engines which enable machine translation and post-editing to and from 34 language pairs, and which incorporate artificial intelligence, machine learning, and direct ordering of translation;

5 embedded translation quality options — ranging from the highest quality human translation plus editing to rapid inexpensive Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) or Neural Machine Translation (NMT). These options include the ability to enhance SMT and NMT with human post-editing, and all options are orderable from a single user interface or API;

Ability to enhance machine translation (MT) results with custom glossaries of difficult to translate proprietary industry expressions, acronyms, product names, keywords, places, personal names, and unique cultural terms;

Automatic free language detection as part of the translation ordering process;

Ability to use several translation services within the same project to optimize the quality, turnaround time, and cost associated with each content type and translation purpose;

Ability to secure consulting expertise and project support from Linguistic Systems' team of translation experts, leveraging the company's more than 50 years of deep knowledge across dozens of industries;

ISO 27001 Information Security Systems certification of technology and processes;

Additional certifications including ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems and ISO 17100 Translation Quality Management Systems.

Mark Ettinger, Vice President of Linguistic Systems, offered: "Along with our advanced Ai and machine translation technology, we've always viewed our human translation and post-editing quality as a core strength — even in an automated world. The ISO 18587 Certification validates that for customers."

Spin Digital Video Technologies GmbH (Spin Digital), in collaboration with Intel Corporation (Intel), announced today that they will present a new 8K live HEVC software encoder at InterBEE 2019. Onsite demonstrations will be presented from November 13 to 15, at Spin Digital Asia Pacific Inc. Hall 3 - Booth 3314, at the Makuhari Messe in Tokyo.

BERLIN AND TOKYO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 15, 2019
The new encoder produces quality and compression levels comparable to best-in-class offline encoders while, at the same time, providing the performance required for processing 8K at 60 frames per second in real-time.
8Kp60 HEVC real-time encoder for broadcast and broadband
The encoder is addressed to the next generation of 8K applications that demand broadcast-grade quality, very high compression efficiency, and compliance with broadcast CBR rate control standards. In addition, it provides support for 8K live streaming over the Internet, using an advanced VBR rate control algorithm aligned to live streaming guidelines.
The new real-time encoder provides a quality and compression performance comparable to Spin Enc, the offline encoder developed by Spin Digital that is widely known for its high-quality and high-compression capacity. Initial analysis performed by Spin Digital shows that the new HEVC encoder is able to reduce the bitrate up to 41% compared to the x265 encoder, in ultrafast mode, at the same quality and at 4 times higher encoding speed.
Software encoder optimized for Intel Xeon Scalable CPUs
The new encoder is based on a flexible software solution that relies on advanced decision algorithms, a modern encoder architecture, and a highly optimized implementation. The encoder is able to process 8Kp60 HEVC video in real-time using a CPU-only system. It has been extensively optimized for Intel Xeon Scalable processors in order to achieve an unparalleled level of performance, including: SIMD processing using Intel's AVX-512 instructions, and advanced multithreading for systems that include hundreds of CPU cores.
Live 8K demo at InterBEE
At InterBEE Spin Digital will be presenting a live demonstration. The 8Kp60 real-time encoder will be running on a server that includes 4x Intel Xeon Platinum 8176 CPUs (4x28 cores). Uncompressed content in 8Kp60 4:2:0 10-bit format is read from a disk array composed of 4x 2TB Intel DC P4510 U.2 NVME SSDs disks using Intel Virtual RAID on CPU (VROC). The server is running Ubuntu Linux Server 18.04.3.
The HEVC encoded output at 48 Mbit/s is then streamed using RTP through a local network to a client PC running Spin Digital HEVC decoder solution Spin Player. The decoded content will be played on an 8K TV with 4x HDMI 2.0 inputs.
Contact and Meet us - Booth 3314
Arrange a meeting with us to learn more about our products, see a demo of the HEVC 8Kp60 real-time encoder, and discuss how Spin Digital can help you to enable 8K video solutions using HEVC software video codecs.

Code Dx Inc. Eligible for $2 Million in Seed Financing.

FULTON, MD. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 15, 2019
DataTribe, a global cyber foundry that invests in and co-builds next-generation cybersecurity and data science companies with nation-state experienced technical teams from the intelligence community, research labs, and industry-leading experts, announced today the winner of its second-annual DataTribe Challenge is Code Dx Inc., based in Northport, New York.
The DataTribe Challenge is a global competition to identify and develop high-technology startups with a vision to disrupt cybersecurity and data science. Past winners have found the DataTribe Challenge to be a catalyst for rapid growth. The competition winner last year, Prevalion, closed its Series A round valued at $35M million in July – less than 12 months after winning the contest.
Code Dx is a provider of a next-generation, automated application vulnerability management solution. As the 2019 winner, the company is now eligible to receive up to $2 million in seed capital from DataTribe. The investment could also potentially include a follow-on investment up to $6.5 million in Series A venture funding from DataTribe and AllegisCyber, a Silicon Valley-based cybersecurity venture capital firm.
Code Dx was founded on the principle that application vulnerability management should be an integral part of the software development process. Code Dx offers a tool that allows multiple, disparate testing tools to work to together and provide one set of correlated results on an easy-to-read dashboard. This accelerates the application security process, lowering costs and speeding development times. Code Dx's software suite grew from research funded by the Department of Homeland Security, Science and Technology Directorate's Small Business Initiative Research (SBIR) program.
This heritage matched up well with DataTribe's unique model. DataTribe has built a unique reputation as a partner with elite engineering teams at the cutting edge of innovation, typically leveraging experience gained at national security agencies or government R&D labs. DataTribe's mission is to advance the state-of-the-art in cybersecurity and data science.
"We're proud to announce Code Dx as the winner of what was a highly selective competition and a difficult decision," said Mike Janke, co-founder of DataTribe. "Code Dx combines next-gen technology with the market changing focus we look for in this competition. We're ready to provide Dr. D'Amico and her team with the resources to go continue accelerating their growth and investment benchmarks."
"I'm honored that Code Dx has been chosen the winner by such a respected judging panel," said Anita D'Amico, Ph.D., CEO of Code Dx. "Code Dx provides an easy and cost-effective solution for managing software vulnerabilities faster than was possible before. It's fitting we're now partnering with DataTribe, since our company started as a $99,000 Small Business Innovation Research grant from DHS. The Code Dx application vulnerability management system has already become a mature product that is used throughout government and industry to rapidly find and fix software vulnerabilities, and this win makes our future even brighter."
The final competition was held on November 14th at City Garage, Baltimore MD. The distinguished panel of judges included:

Daniel Weinard, Co-founder of Shopify, a publicly traded provider of eCommerce solutions

Jon Callas, Senior Security Scientist Apple, Senior Technology Fellow at ACLU and Co-founder of Blackphone

John Stewart, SVP, Chief Security and Trust Officer at CISCO

Bob Ackerman, Founder and Managing Director of AllegisCyber

Roth Adds Expertise to Spectrum's Mission of Safety by Design and Flagging Toxic Behavior Online — Across Industries, Countries, and Languages.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 18, 2019
Spectrum Labs, Inc, which uses Contextual AI to accurately recognize toxic behaviors online, today announced that Aaron Roth, PhD, will join its Board of Advisors to advance Spectrum's twin missions of safety by design and training machines to flag toxic behaviors across industries, countries and languages. Dr. Roth will guide Spectrum as the company continues innovating in contextual AI with its next generation private machine learning platform. Included in these efforts are minimizing the need for direct access to sensitive data, minimizing the ability to reverse training, and reducing identity leakage.
Roth is the Bicentennial Term Associate Professor of Computer and Information Science at the University of Pennsylvania computer science department, associated with the theory group, PRiML (Penn Research in Machine Learning) the Warren Center for Network and Data Sciences, and co-director of UPenn's program in Networked and Social Systems Engineering. He focuses on algorithms and machine learning — specifically on private data analysis, fairness in machine learning, game theory and mechanism design, and learning theory. He is also the recipient of a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship, an NSF CAREER award, a Google Faculty Research Award, an Amazon Research Award, and a Yahoo Academic Career Enhancement award.
Roth is also the co-author of a new book, "The Ethical Algorithm," written for a general audience. Publisher Oxford University Press writes, "Understanding and improving the science behind the algorithms that run our lives is rapidly becoming one of the most pressing issues of this century. Traditional fixes, such as laws, regulations and watchdog groups, have proven woefully inadequate. Reporting from the cutting edge of scientific research, The Ethical Algorithm offers a new approach: a set of principled solutions based on the emerging and exciting science of socially aware algorithm design. Michael Kearns and Aaron Roth explain how we can better embed human principles into machine code - without halting the advance of data-driven scientific exploration. Weaving together innovative research with stories of citizens, scientists, and activists on the front lines, The Ethical Algorithm offers a compelling vision for a future, one in which we can better protect humans from the unintended impacts of algorithms while continuing to inspire wondrous advances in technology."
"For us, adding Aaron Roth as an advisor seemed like a perfect fit: Just as Spectrum's platform is constantly learning to recognize and flag the kinds of toxic behaviors that pollute users' online experience, Spectrum as a company is constantly learning, as well. We are humbled and excited to learn from Aaron's expertise and experience in designing machine learning with an eye to both innovation and ethics," said Josh Newman, Spectrum Labs CTO. "We're already working on some great projects together, so stay tuned," Newman added.
About Spectrum Labs
Founded in 2016, Spectrum Labs' Contextual AI platform helps online communities recognize and respond to toxic behaviors — like radicalization, sexual grooming, harassment and cyberbullying — in real time, across languages and content types. Our Data Vault, which contains an ever growing mix of data gathered from customers, researchers and third-party partners, powers community-specific signals we build for our customers so they can confidently take action against disruptive behaviors. Spectrum is based in San Francisco, California. For more information, visit getspectrum.io.

Healthcare Data and Analytics Company Appoints Stephanie Alexander as Chair.

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 18, 2019
Configo Health Inc., a healthcare data and analytics company specializing in pediatrics, launched today and announced it has secured investment funding from Texas Children's Hospital and Children's National Hospital. The organization also appointed industry veteran Stephanie Alexander as Chair.
Configo Health addresses the lack of credible benchmarked data accessible both to administrators and clinicians working within pediatric hospitals and to patients and their families. Using both machine learning and more traditional retrospective analytics, Configo Health delivers actionable insight with near real-time relevance to improve patient safety and achieve better outcomes for children.
By creating a dataset that will cover the breadth of pediatric care, Configo Health will provide public ratings organizations with the option to use risk-adjusted performance data to assess the quality of care delivered by hospitals across the country more effectively.

Configo's move to near real-time insight will be a game changer for driving improvement," said Dr. Eric Williams, System Chief Quality Officer at Texas Children's Hospital. "Quicker access to this validated data means more decisions can be made bedside leading to improved outcomes for the patients and families we serve."
Experts in extracting administrative data from pediatric hospitals, Configo Health provides HIPAA-compliant processes, secure data storage facilities, data cleansing and sophisticated analytical processing. By analyzing and evaluating data, organizations can reduce serious safety events, reduce mortality rates, optimize length of stay and reduce readmissions.
"We are delighted to announce Texas Children's Hospital and Children's National Hospital, two of the top children's hospitals in the nation, as our founding investors," said Craig Manson, CEO of Configo Health. "These relationships go well beyond capital and will allow us to develop solutions that truly meet the needs of pediatric hospitals and their patients and families."
Alec King, Chief Financial Officer of Children's National Hospital added, "We invested in Configo Health because we believe they have the vision, experience and skills to revolutionize access to clear, actionable data across all functions within our institution."
Stephanie Alexander, former President of Premier Analytics and most recently CEO of PeraHealth, the leading clinical decision support tool, will join Configo Health as Chair.
"I'm thrilled to join the talented Configo Health team at this exciting time in their development," said Alexander. "Having pioneered the use of data as a driver for improvement and efficiency in adult care, I'm relishing the opportunity to be part of an organization set to transform the role data plays in pediatric medicine."

Townsend Security's Alliance Key Manager for MySQL offers unparalleled security, flexibility and affordability for all users of MySQL Enterprise Edition and MySQL Cluster CGE.

OLYMPIA, WASH. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
Townsend Security today announced Alliance Key Manager for MySQL, an affordable FIPS 140-2 compliant encryption key manager to help users of the MySQL Enterprise Edition database meet compliance requirements (PCI DSS, GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, etc.) and security best practices. Users of the MySQL database can now easily protect private data like customer PII and intellectual property without modifying existing applications or the database by using the database's Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) coupled with Townsend Security's Alliance Key Manager for MySQL.
While MySQL offers industry standard 256-bit AES encryption, it is recommended to use an external encryption key management solution like Alliance Key Manager for MySQL to manage the encryption keys. Alliance Key Manager uses the industry standard Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) to access encryption keys and MySQL users can deploy the solution and install the PKI certificates on the database server to easily begin protecting encryption keys.
"MySQL is the world's most popular open-source database, and consequently, stores enormous amounts of sensitive data," said Patrick Townsend, CEO of Townsend Security. "MySQL Enterprise Edition includes standards based encryption, along with KMIP support for key management, and MySQL users can be confident that they are protecting their private data against a breach and meeting compliance requirements."
MySQL encrypts data at rest in real-time using industry standard AES algorithms prior to writing to storage and decrypted when read from storage. As a result, hackers and malicious users are unable to read sensitive data from tablespace files, database backups or disks. By using native MySQL command line operations, encryption is easy to deploy and keys can automatically be protected by Townsend Security's Alliance Key Manager. MySQL users can deploy the key management solution as a hardware security module (HSM), VMware virtual machine, or in the cloud as a native AWS EC2 instance or Microsoft Azure virtual machine. Alliance Key Manager supports seamless migration and hybrid implementations.
"Encryption and key management is easier than ever and I think that MySQL Enterprise Edition users will be delighted to find how easy and affordable it is to deploy an enterprise-class centralized encryption key management solution," continued Townsend. "Protecting PII, enterprise IP, and meeting compliance regulations are all things that enterprise's are concerned with on a daily basis. MySQL databases are used in mission-critical applications by large and small organizations, so the real-time high availability failover capability of Alliance Key Manager will make IT administrators very happy. By pairing MySQL and Alliance Key Manager, security teams can rest a little bit easier."
Alliance Key Manager for MySQL is available for a free 30-day evaluation.
About Alliance Key Manager
Townsend Security's Alliance Key Manager allows enterprises to effectively encrypt data and meet security requirements in less time and at a lower cost. The solution provides full life-cycle management of encryption keys for a wide variety of applications to help organizations meet California CPA, NY-DFS, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance. Available at no extra charge, Townsend Security includes ready-to-use security applications (SQL Server, Drupal, more), SDKs, and sample code (Java, C#, Python, Perl, PHP, and more) for developers. Additionally, there are never extra fees for deploying client-side applications.
About Townsend Security
Townsend Security creates data privacy solutions that help organizations meet evolving compliance requirements and mitigate the risk of data breaches and cyber-attacks. Companies worldwide trust Townsend Security's NIST and FIPS 140-2 compliant solutions to meet encryption and key management requirements in PCI DSS, GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA/HITECH, FISMA, and other regulatory compliance requirements. Learn more at http://www.townsendsecurity.com.

Encryption and key management is easier than ever and I think that MySQL Enterprise Edition users will be delighted to find how easy and affordable it is to deploy an enterprise-class centralized encryption key management solution.

This will streamline the purchasing process and enable you to pay for Bright Cluster Manager as an integral part of your cloud service, all in one bill.

Auto Scaling Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure - Bright's auto scaling capability can now automatically scale HPC queues and Kubernetes applications from pools of cloud nodes and local nodes, creating a highly effective hybrid cloud environment. Users simply specify the pools each type of workload can pull from and the order in which they would like them to be used.

Tagging of resources in AWS - When you run a compute job in AWS through the HPC workload management system, Bright will tag the instances and storage that you use in the cloud so that you can determine which jobs / users / projects were responsible for which AWS costs.

Simplified Management of Multiple-Architecture and Multiple-OS Clusters
In Bright Cluster Manager 9.0, we've made it even easier to combine different types of servers, CPU architectures, and operating systems in the same cluster, and added support for the Fujitsu A64FX Arm platform. This is done by making it possible to carry out package install, update, and removal functions for any CPU architecture/operating system combination from the cluster's head node.
Enhanced Flexibility and Resiliency for Bright Edge
In 9.0, Bright Edge now provides more options for edge deployment, including the ability to deploy a single HPC workload management system across an entire geographically distributed cluster or deploy individual workload managers for each location. 9.0 also provides additional capabilities that further enhance the product's ability to continue service users and edge devices in the event of network failure.
Enhanced Workload Accounting and Reporting Capabilities
Workload accounting and reporting was first announced in version 8.1, enabling administrators to track resource utilization by job and user jobs running under HPC workload managers. With 9.0, we've extended this feature to include jobs running on Kubernetes. We've also added the ability to run multiple instances of workload accounting and reporting, making it possible to isolate resource utilization by project and limiting visibility of resource usage to the owner of the project. 9.0 also has additional reporting capabilities in Bright View, which lets an administrator or user easily drill-down on resource utilization for individual users, projects, and/or applications. It has also become much easier to track GPU utilization for applications during the runtime of jobs, which allows cluster owners to make sure that allocated GPU resources are utilized effectively.
Kubernetes
Kubernetes support has been upgraded to version 1.16. In addition, Bright 9.0 makes it possible to use the Singularity CRI, which allows Kubernetes to be used without Docker as the container runtime engine, thereby avoiding security aspects that are inherent to using Docker.
Customizable Dashboards
We enhanced Bright View's dashboard capabilities to include customizable dashboards for entities such as nodes, node categories, and software images. This way, administrators can track all nodes in a cluster, ensure the nodes are optimized for the types of jobs they run and make adjustments as necessary.
Support OpenStack Stein and Ceph Nautilus
We are excited to announce that in 9.0, Bright OpenStack now includes the Stein release of OpenStack and the Nautilus release of Ceph. Bright OpenStack Stein provides multi-attach for RBD volumes, optional deferred asynchronous volume deletion, bandwidth-aware VM scheduling, and a new OpenStack placement service that replaces the nova-placement-api.

Addition of ProScheduler Strengthens Serenova's Robust Portfolio of Contact Center Solutions to Improve Agent and Operational Efficiency

AUSTIN, TEXAS (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 18, 2019
Serenova, a leading contact center-as-a-service (CCaaS) and workforce optimization (WFO) provider, today announced it acquired the technology and hired the team behind the ProScheduler platform from Loxysoft. With this new, sophisticated technology added to its portfolio, Serenova will offer customers of all sizes the ability to fully leverage their workforce investments through advanced and accurate scheduling, reducing staffing costs and improving ROI.
ProScheduler will immediately become part of Serenova's contact center portfolio and will be integrated into the CxEngage platform in the first half of 2020. Once the integration is complete, organizations of all sizes will have access to a new approach to managing their agent workforce, one that takes advantage of a powerful, data-driven optimization engine and integrates seamlessly into existing customer experience programs.
"With this acquisition, Serenova is once again redefining the evolution of the contact center market to help our customers keep pace with evolving consumer demands," said John Lynch, CEO of Serenova. "By providing tools that deepen the capabilities of supervisors to manage their organizations, we are expanding the meaning and scope of what a cloud contact center platform should be capable of managing."
Serenova's integrated solution will enable organizations to significantly improve upon their key performance indicators (KPIs) by enhancing employee engagement, efficiency and satisfaction—a critical component to the contact center's ability to drive business growth. In fact, the most recent Forrester Wave: Cloud Contact Centers stated that "Forrester believes that natively integrated WFO technologies—such as workforce management (WFM), quality monitoring, call recording, performance management, and text and speech analytics—provide immediate benefits and lay the groundwork for contact centers to evolve strategically."
"We've long believed that the most important next step for the contact center to deliver on their promises of superior customer experiences is to provide the technology and tools that transform the contact center from both the operations and human resource perspective," said Leslie Blanke, SVP of Product at Serenova. "After careful consideration of all the solutions in the market, ProScheduler was the obvious next step in that vision. This acquisition is another critical milestone in our promise of delivering a global, cloud-based platform to improve agent performance and, in turn, build better customer experiences."
Workforce Optimization Portfolio
This is Serenova's second acquisition to build out its WFO line. It first acquired TelStrat in 2017 and subsequently released its first product on that technology that is integrated into CxEngage with CxEngage Quality Management (CxQM). Already an award-winning product, CxQM unifies Quality Management (QM) with CCaaS to eliminate the challenges created by siloed solutions through a consolidated, 360-view of customer and agent interactions.

To understand how leveraging solutions such as Quality Management can pinpoint areas for improvement and position your organization to deliver outstanding customer experiences, download the whitepaper Quality Management and Your Contact Center.
About Serenova
Serenova has transformed the customer experience. Over a decade ago, the company realized technology didn't exist that could deliver immediate, consistent, and exceptional service. So, it created a true cloud contact center solution that could. The result is the ability to unify everything from customer engagement to quality management to analytics. This single source of truth provides global brands insights about customer information and experiences as they pivot between channels such as SMS, voice, or Facebook Messenger.
Whether it's technology, healthcare, or retail, brands from all industries come to Serenova for its global coverage and deep integrations into the business systems used every day.

Wallarm launches the first-on-the market native support of Envoy-powered APIs security; protects ServiceMesh / Istio. See a live demo at KubeCon, Booth SE48

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 18, 2019
Wallarm, the company that delivers AI-powered app and API protection, today announced the general availability of the Wallarm Envoy API support for Ingress and Service Mesh.
Wallarm is committed to supporting the newest cloud tech to help customers stay ahead of the curve. Having introduced native Kubernetes security support in 2018, we want to stay ahead of the Envoy / Istio trend and enable our customer, who pioneered the user of Service Mesh, with security both North-South and East-West APIs in production.
"Envoy is rapidly winning the hearts and minds of the community by being a foundation of light-weight, high-performance microservices APIs for both inbound and inter-services connectivity. Wallarm is the only security solution that works as fast as Envoy itself and integrates directly into the Envoy", said Stepan Ilyin, Wallarm Chief Product Officer.
What is Envoy?
Envoy is a high-performance distributed routing framework and a "universal data plane" designed for microservices and service mesh architectures. It was originally built C++ by a Lyft engineering team with an extremely low performance overhead and can also be used as a distributed proxy for single service applications. Currently, Envoy is a part of CNCF family and is supported by the foundation
Envoy is a great example of the third generation routing infrastructure learning from the challenges of first-generation technology, like F5 application delivery network (ADN), and second-generation solutions such as NGINX and HAProxy.
Envoy's main advantage is the ability to provide networking features to each service in a platform-independent manner. By abstracting the network and centralizing routing controls, Envoy enables better observability, performance, and ability to find bottlenecks.
Key Innovation in Wallarm for Envoy

Installs directly onto the Envoy infrastructure

Protects Service Mesh, including Istio

Protects North-South and East-West APIs

Extremely low overhead

Broad API protocol detection, including gRPC

Low false positives

New features include StorageOS Data Locality for improved performance and StorageOS Shared File for increased adoption of containerization

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 18, 2019
StorageOS, a leading provider of cloud native, software-defined, persistent storage for containers, today announced the release of version 1.5. The latest version includes new features that significantly improve performance for applications under certain workloads. StorageOS is built for developers so they can run any stateful application on any infrastructure.
StorageOS v1.5 now includes:

StorageOS Data Locality influences the Kubernetes scheduler to put applications next to the volume. It includes a mutating admission controller that provides Kubernetes users an integrated solution for data locality. Users benefit from the ability to co-locate applications with the volumes they consume, avoiding network roundtrips for performance sensitive workloads.

StorageOS Shared File allows a filesystem to be shared by multiple containers. Referred to by Kubernetes as ReadWriteMany (RWX), this is useful for horizontally scaling certain classes of application, and other workloads which require coordination via a shared filesystem.

Read performance enhancements for substantially faster application performance.

"In traditional environments, solving state was done at the infrastructure layer," said Alex Chircop, CTO of StorageOS. "Modern cloud native environments still need state. The onus is now on the developer to select storage that is application aware and enhances application performance. StorageOS v1.5 is built for developers to deliver the storage for their applications without needing to define topology or understand complex storage infrastructure."
StorageOS v1.5 is available now. Users can get it for free up to 500GB of storage. KubeCon San Diego attendees can meet with StorageOS at booth S52 to see a demo and meet the team. Learn more at storageos.com.

Acumen Solutions has partnered with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to modernize their current systems and deliver a better experience for veterans.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 18, 2019
Acumen Solutions has partnered with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to deliver a better experience for veterans that are utilizing VA benefits and services by modernizing VA's systems using the Salesforce platform. These new programs, including the caregiver program, contact center modernization, correspondence management, and grants management, are directly impacting the veteran experience.
The VA's Caregiver Record Management Application (CARMA) system was developed as part of the Mission Act, with the goal of helping over 50,000 veterans receive aid from a caretaker in the comfort of their home, and to provide financial support to caregivers through stipend payments. Acumen Solutions is designing a new system on the Salesforce platform to manage the program applications and triage cases, allowing the VA to modernize the entire process through digital applications rather than the current paper system. The implementation of this program will ultimately result in veterans and their caregivers getting approved for benefits more efficiently.
Additionally, Acumen Solutions is leading contact center modernization initiatives across multiple VA programs, including the Debt Management Center (DMC) and several VA Medical Centers. By unifying the contact center systems using the Salesforce platform, veterans will have an improved customer experience while scheduling appointments, requesting prescriptions, and engaging with these programs across multiple platforms. These upgraded systems will help provide veterans a more streamlined path to resolve their requests.
Acumen Solutions is also supporting the VA's medical innovation through the Office of Rural Health (ORH) by developing a custom Salesforce solution to manage grant applications. ORH provides grants to VA Medical Centers to implement a wide range of innovation programs at the Medical Center level. This initiative is bringing cutting-edge ideas and medical solutions to veterans and serves as a direct avenue for research funding that will benefit veterans long-term.
"Acumen Solutions is honored to be a part of the VA's technology revolution. We believe the Department of Veterans Affairs is setting the pace for other government agencies to modernize and improve, in order to provide a better experience for the public. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve those who have served us," said Jay Tansing, Managing Director at Acumen Solutions.

San Diego, CA-based Datasparc Inc. and Netherlands-based CACI Netherlands announced recently that they have successfully integrated the DBHawk web-based database management software from Datasparc into OSIRIS, CACI's flagship software product and the most popular student information system in the Netherlands.

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 18, 2019
Dubbed OSIRIS Query, the integrated management tool means that CACI's customers do not need to use and spend for another tool to manage advanced queries in OSIRIS. Since OSIRIS Query inherits DBHawk's capability to securely run queries on production databases without compromising data integrity and performance, customers prefer it over other competing tools in the market since they do not need to acquire an additional server for running queries. This helps CACI customers lower maintenance costs for their OSIRIS infrastructure.
"We found DBHawk ideal for integration into OSIRIS and are grateful to Datasparc for helping us integrate the tool into OSIRIS as OSIRIS Query. Previously, our customers must procure their own tools for use with OSIRIS. The tool's strict authorization mechanism meets strict GDPR regulations, making it ideal for us. Authorizations setup in OSIRIS are inherited by DBHawk helping our customers being GDPR compliant. The added capabilities further strengthen our position as the leading student information system in the Netherlands," said a senior CACI official.
For his part, Datasparc Founder and CEO Manish Shah said: "We are happy to work with CACI in integrating DBHawk into OSIRIS. We are also proud that, like DBHawk, the resulting tool is fully GDPR-compliant. This recent success shows that DBHawk is ideal for large-scale production systems, whether hosted on-premise or in the cloud."
DBHawk provides secure data access with two-factor authentication across a wide range of SQL and NoSQL databases, both large and small. Users have praised DBHawk for its comprehensive access control and query logging, saved/shared queries complete with passwords and expiration dates for better security, secure proxy capabilities that eliminate the need for VPN connections between host and clients, and extensive auditing capabilities that make it fully-compliant with GDPR, HIPAA, SOX, and other government regulations.
OSIRIS is used by over half of the higher education institutions in the Netherlands. With OSIRIS, school administrators and faculty members are able to improve on the delivery of essential school services for their students. At the same time, OSIRIS helps students learn and assess their performance on their own. From being an on-premise solution, CACI transitioned OSIRIS to the cloud at the start of the decade.
About Datasparc:
Headquartered in San Diego, CA, Datasparc offers database management solutions compatible with a broad range of on-premise and cloud databases. Their goal is to be a leader in database development and database security, through providing innovative, easy-to-use tools for accessing, integrating, developing, and analyzing data. Datasparc has been named among CIO Review's Top 20 Most Promising Enterprise Security Solutions Providers for 2019.
About CACI:

The companies are offering a seamless, bidirectional pricing integration between the Pressero web-to-print solution and Presswise, a PDF workflow automation and print MIS solution.

WHEATON, ILL. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
Aleyant, an innovative leader in providing robust software services to the graphic communications industry, and SmartSoft, Inc., a provider of cloud-based workflow and MIS solutions for commercial printers, today announced that as part of the ongoing expansion of Pressero, the companies are offering a seamless, bidirectional pricing integration between the Pressero web-to-print solution and Presswise, a PDF workflow automation and print MIS solution. The integration, which has been tested by Alliance Franchise Brands' Print & Marketing Division, allows Pressero to query the Presswise pricing database when an estimate is being requested or an order is being placed to ensure real-time, accurate pricing from a single database source.
"Our integration with the Pressero storefront has been the tightest integration we have had in place, even before this latest enhancement," said Joseph Lehn, Director of Product Management at SmartSoft, Inc. "When Aleyant built the initial integration, they included our nomenclature, so it made it much easier to integrate than your typical third-party storefront. The new pricing integration is a natural evolution of what our mutual customers were looking for. No one has time to do their day job these days, much less build something new. So we worked together with Aleyant to do it for them. One of the biggest headaches any printer with a storefront has is how to deal with pricing in two different systems with two different sets of logic. This integration solves that problem for them."
When an order or inquiry is being placed, Pressero can now reach out to Presswise to determine what products are available and allow the user to select the product and choose available options. Presswise then does the appropriate calculations based on its pricing database and sends the information back. It delivers the exact same values as if the order was entered directly into Presswise, eliminating the need to enter pricing twice or have a pricing conflict.
"This integration was delivered, in part, as a response to one of our mutual customers, the Print & Marketing Division of Allied Franchise Brands," said Trent Foreman, Director of Product Development for Aleyant. "Both companies have worked closely with them in their ongoing development of WorkStream platform, a centerpiece of the franchisor's long-term vision for growth that now has integrations between Pressero and all of the major MIS systems they use."
"The Presswise/Pressero integration is the most robust pricing integration currently available to our network," added Will Riley, Alliance Franchise Brands' Workflow Systems Analyst. "We always tell our franchisees that these types of integrations enable us to say 'yes' to our customers. We expect this to make the Pressero/Presswise combination even more attractive to our top centers. Two of them have already been looking at the pricing integration as the final puzzle piece and are excited about rolling it out. As it relates to our WorkStream initiative, this integration delivers a huge advantage and can be implemented without a lot of customization."
The pricing integration is immediately available to customers operating with Pressero and Presswise systems.

The report highlights how businesses' current data privacy strategies are impacting customer relationships, and provides concrete directions for updating practices to maintain trust with consumers

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
In the wake of highly publicized breaches and misuse of data by companies, new legislation is holding businesses more accountable for how they're using and protecting consumer data. While brands have been focused on compliance to avoid financial penalties, it's critical for businesses to also recognize stepping out of line can result in loss of consumer trust with the brand — an even costlier repercussion. In fact, 85% of consumers won't forgive a company's misuse of data, even if they previously trusted the brand, according to a new study by Tealium, the trusted leader in real-time customer data orchestration.
To better understand the steps brands can take to maintain consumer trust, the 2019 Tealium Consumer Data Privacy Report surveyed 1,000 consumers about their relationships with brands and personal data privacy. The study found that almost all (97%) consumers are somewhat or very concerned about protecting their data, but the majority simply don't have the time or prowess to educate themselves. This highlights it's the responsibility of businesses to educate consumers, manage and communicate privacy practices and protect consumer data. The report outlines key steps for brands to do so, including:

Prioritize compliance — for both the present and future. Ninety-one percent of consumers say they want their state or federal government to adopt strict regulations to protect their data, highlighting that GDPR and CCPA are just the start of a much larger regulatory wave.

Create a clear value exchange for data collected. Forty-three percent of consumers say they'd provide detailed data about themselves to a brand for a discount, and another 32% would for exclusive benefits or perks.

Practice transparency throughout the entire customer journey. This could be as simple as rewriting consumer-facing legal and policy pages, which 72% of consumers would be more likely to read if they were shorter, and 61% would if they were more straightforward.

"While all data privacy acts have their differences, they point to the same truth — we must manage customer data the way our customers would expect us to manage it. That means keeping it organized, accessible and protected, and using it to provide value back to the consumer," said Jeff Lunsford, CEO of Tealium. "More data privacy regulations are inevitable in the US, so brands must prioritize and future-proof themselves by finetuning their strategies to abide by these standards, while continuing to bring innovative customer experiences to market."

Tealium revolutionizes today's digital businesses with a universal approach to customer data orchestration – spanning web, mobile, offline and Internet of Things devices.

It's the responsibility of businesses to educate consumers, manage and communicate privacy practices and protect consumer data.

Enterprises That Tap into the Full Value of Their Machine Data Will See Transformational Business Advantage

PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
Circonus, provider of the first machine data intelligence platform built to handle the volume and frequency of data seen in today's global IT infrastructure and IoT deployments, today released its visionary paper on machine data intelligence, the missing link to deriving business value in the current Internet of Everything economy. The paper breaks down what is machine data intelligence, argues why it will dwarf business intelligence, and explains how enterprises that harness their data can drive competitive advantage and powerful business performance.
Businesses today have to answer to demanding consumers, buyers, and investors, who are accustomed to always-on availability, seamless experiences, and answers at their fingertips. Downtime, unplanned outages, and degradation of performance can be extremely costly. According to Gartner, the cost of infrastructure downtime averages $5,600 per minute, and can be as high as $540,000 per hour. On a production line in the automotive industry, a single hour of downtime can cost a staggering $1 million or more. In areas such as safety, high-value decision-making, and mission-critical operations, where data management and analytics are of utmost importance, good enough is no longer good enough.
"To date, conventional monitoring and analytic tools have always had limits – on volume, on frequency, on storage, and on scale," said Bob Moul, CEO, Circonus. "That is no longer the case. Businesses that recognize the value of putting all of their data to work will see results in magnitudes of accuracy, precision, confidence, predictive qualities, and insights – all of which are critical to getting value and ROI out of business initiatives, such as IoT investments."
In this Internet of Everything economy, where Theo Schlossnagle, founder and CTO of Circonus, estimates that machine data is growing at the rate of 1x10 to the 12th every 10 years, the possibilities for machine data intelligence are boundless – limited only by creativity and imagination. As the number of things that we want to monitor and measure grows, and sensors proliferate our world, enterprises have the opportunity to seize new levels of insight to drive competitive advantage, and change the trajectory of their products, operations, IT infrastructure and business performance.
To learn more about how tapping into the full potential of machine data provides accurate and real-time data on demand and delivers measurable results, download this paper, "The Internet of Everything and the Advent of Machine Data Intelligence." Readers will learn how machine data intelligence is overtaking business intelligence as the next frontier of competitive advantage and discover real-world use cases in industries like oil & gas, ad tech, media and utilities.
About Circonus
Circonus is the machine data intelligence expert, providing the only machine data intelligence platform capable of handling billions of metric streams in real time to drive unprecedented business insight and value. Led by experts in large-scale distributed systems and data science, Circonus is pioneering the way that machine data at scale is leveraged throughout the enterprise, from operational analytics to IoT applications.

Research reveals the government sector is the most popular target for Domain Name Systems attacks

PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
EfficientIP, specialists in Domain Name System (DNS) security for service continuity, user protection and data confidentiality, reveals government organizations were hit by the highest number of DNS attacks per year in this IDC Infobrief, sponsored by EfficientIP, 2019 Global DNS Threat Report. Government suffers an average of 12 DNS attacks per year, with each attack costing an average of $558,000, amounting to $6.7 million annually.
Over half (51%) of government organizations suffered in-house application downtime as a result of DNS attacks in the last 12 months, rendering potentially vital services inaccessible, while 43% faced cloud service downtime. 41% of organizations were impacted by compromised websites, putting data at risk. Almost one in five (19%) government respondents also reported sensitive information or intellectual property being stolen via DNS, by far the highest among all industries.
The typical DNS attack takes over seven hours for government organizations to mitigate, leaving the door wide open to a huge potential loss of sensitive personal and financial data. 51% of government respondents admitted to shutting down a server to stop an attack once underway, indicating that the countermeasures in place are not adapted to ensure service continuity.
Despite the risk, one-third (32%) of government respondents don't recognise the critical nature of DNS to operations, stating DNS security is only low or moderately important. Furthermore, one third (32%) of government sector respondents don't perform analytics on DNS traffic, suggesting respondents are potentially unaware of how DNS downtime deprives users access to essential applications or government services.
David Williamson, CEO of EfficientIP, commented on the report's findings:
"With an increasing number of government services moving online, hackers have more points of attack to exploit than ever before. When 91% of malware uses DNS, analysis of DNS transactions is vital for uncovering these dangerous threats hidden in network traffic. In particular, the detection of data exfiltration via DNS requires visibility and analytics on transactions from the client to the destination domain.
Despite this, our latest research shows governments are significantly more exposed than other sectors to DNS attacks. This is unacceptable when governments are trusted with sensitive information by their citizens, so they need to understand the potential risks to protect both themselves and the public."
Government was tied with healthcare as the sectors putting the least importance on Machine Learning (ML) for detecting unknown malicious domains or Domain Generation Algorithms (DGAs). Government also has the lowest rate of adoption for the Zero Trust cybersecurity approach of any sector surveyed.

Saturn Corporation will provide their non-profit base the security, PCI scope reduction and brand protection of P2PE, backed by Bluefin payment processing

ATLANTA AND LARGO, MD. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
Bluefin, the leading provider of payment security technologies, including PCI-validated Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE), has announced a new partnership with Saturn Corporation for integrated payment processing and P2PE through Eprisa, the company's enterprise-class fundraising database technology platform.

The company's EprisaConnect solution provides the real-time connection between an organization's website and its database CRM software, and the system can process a donation in real-time and have the funds deposited immediately as well as the donor's record updated immediately.
Saturn Corporation's Eprisa technology platform is powered by the InterSystems database technology engine. InterSystems, a global leader in information technology platforms for health, business, and government applications, was named a January 2019 Gartner Peer Insights Customers' Choice for Operational Database Management Systems (ODBMS).

EarthCam, the leading provider of construction camera technology and services, today announced at Autodesk University a new feature set that continues to enrich its integration with Autodesk.

LAS VEGAS (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
EarthCam, the leading provider of construction camera technology and services, today announced at Autodesk University a new feature set that continues to enrich its integration with Autodesk.
Today's digitized workflow creates enormous amounts of data from a growing number of sources, which makes it difficult to keep track of. By converging live jobsite cameras, AI, and 360° reality capture with Navisworks and Revit models, a powerful multifaceted model emerges making it easier to organize actionable information more efficiently.
When documenting construction progress with 360° reality capture, photos are often captured in varied orientations, which makes it difficult to compare and analyze progress for specific points of interest. EarthCam's solution automatically aligns captured photos to create a cohesive library of archives for image comparison. Once aligned, users can markup the images to share detailed observations, or create a time-lapse to highlight progress.
EarthCam's Control Center 8 software-as-a-service platform leverages A.I. technology to align 360° images with associated 3D BIM models. The resulting uniformly acquired data facilitates accurate image comparison to the same views in past timeframes and correlation with the associated BIM models almost immediately. Construction teams will spend less time in the field, minimize lag time in waiting for data to become available, and get immediate access to project imagery for collaboration.
"BIM is all about visual representation and communication - infusing live cameras onsite brings an entirely new level of richness in information and completely changes the collaborative landscape," said Brian Cury, EarthCam CEO and Founder. "EarthCam is creating a path towards eliminating waste and supporting a lean culture. Through this visual information, the benefits of saved time and expenses are quickly realized."
Harnessing live data sources available onsite and merging them with upstream BIM information to merge the as-designed with the as-built streamlines management of schedules and answers questions about clashes in near real-time. Beyond the benefits to the project team on-site, Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) teams can leverage EarthCam cameras on the jobsite to gain a greater insight into the project process using real-time media.
Another new feature is the ability to upload images to accompany Request-for-Information (RFIs) to PlanGrid. These data-rich photos, including telemetry from a local weather station, can be easily shared with team members improving the project's overall communication, reporting and analysis.
The construction industry increasingly demands that technology companies collaborate to reduce friction and create comprehensive integrated solutions to support successful project management. With EarthCam's support for Autodesk BIM 360 and the integration of visual content, the model becomes a framework that provides for a collaborative single-source environment for the entire project team.
EarthCam is driving productivity for a more informative jobsite providing end-to-end services, including camera rentals, professional installation and same-day delivery.
To learn more about EarthCam's Autodesk partner card and the value of these innovative solutions, visit http://www.earthcam.net/autodesk.
ABOUT EARTHCAM
EarthCam is the global leader in providing webcam content, technology and services. Founded in 1996, EarthCam provides live streaming video, time-lapse construction cameras and reality capture solutions for corporate and government clients. EarthCam leads the industry with the highest resolution imagery available, including the world's first outdoor gigapixel panorama camera system.

The company is headquartered on a 10-acre campus in Northern New Jersey and maintains 13 additional offices internationally.

In Singapore's National Design Centre, Audio Spotlight directional sound from Holosonic Research Labs, Inc. is the primary feature in an exhibit that shows visitors how people with dementia might perceive sound.

WATERTOWN, MASS. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
In Singapore's National Design Centre, Audio Spotlight directional sound is the primary feature in an exhibit that shows visitors how people with dementia might perceive sound. The exhibition utilizes two different types of speakers – omni-directional speakers as well as highly directional Audio Spotlight speakers from Holosonics.
The speakers are mounted on rotatable panels that visitors can rotate to direct sound and reflect sound toward different nearby surfaces. According to the exhibit's designers, these actions create an ever-evolving sonic environment, which is unique for each visitor. The exhibit was installed by Holosonics' partner Arup in conjunction with BLOXAS Architects, and DesignSingapore Council.
The DesignSingapore Council describes the 'Sound Field' exhibit as "an immersive, interactive and experimental installation aimed at raising awareness of the role of sound in urban design and to simulate what it might feel like to live with dementia. A soundscape of Singapore city has been created, ranging from the home environment to public spaces, where it is possible to study how sounds may become disorientating and confusing."
According to Nick Boulter, Associate Principle at Arup, "The Audio Spotlight technology that went into the installation was critical to its success. By including these highly directional loudspeakers... we were able to create a complex series of sound zones, which moved as visitors interacted with the rotating elements housing the various loudspeakers. We deliberately orientated the installation to encourage reflections off vertical surfaces so that visitors were presented with everyday sounds that were somehow familiar but also disorientating in the way that they appeared to come from many different directions."
The purpose of the exhibit is to make architects and designers aware of how difficult it is for people with dementia to function in public spaces, and what can be done to make such spaces a more pleasant experience for those who have dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
About Holosonic Research Labs, Inc.
Holosonic Research Labs, Inc., a pioneer in directional acoustics, develops and manufactures the Audio Spotlight directional sound system. Founded by MIT graduate Dr. F. Joseph Pompei, Holosonics' Audio Spotlight technology is used in a wide variety of applications including museums, libraries, offices, reception areas, retail displays, trade shows, and retail kiosks.

The average buyer, according to the newest survey by TrustRadius, consults 5.1 different sources of information to make an informed purchase decision

AUSTIN, TEXAS (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
The 2020 B2B Buying Disconnect highlights the findings from the 4th annual report by TrustRadius. Designed to explore the evolving relationship between technology buyers and vendors. This year TrustRadius surveyed a total of 1.5K respondents. 1,036 technology buyers and 449 technology vendors took aligning surveys.
Simon Jones, Managing Partner at Destrier and author of Enterprise Peer Reviews: A Playbook for Vendors says: "Enterprise marketers must 'mind the gap' as there's a clear difference between vendors' perception and reality when it comes to enterprise procurement. This latest research from TrustRadius underlines how marketers are increasingly out of touch with how enterprise buyers are sourcing and procuring software and services. In particular, by under-estimating the impact of consensus decision-making and over-focusing on the divide and conquer strategy, many vendors are on the wrong track when it comes to developing strategies to manage their brands on peer review sites."
The gap Jones is referring to as seen in the report is that 77% of buyers say that it is very important to understand the cons before making a purchase. While only 33% of vendors say they think it is very important for buyers to understand the cons before buying. This gap is increasing year over year.
Key findings and takeaways from the study include:
Vendors are now more likely to use reviews with prospects than not. 58% of vendors use user reviews as a tactic to educate and engage prospects. This is a 35% increase from last year.
The average buyer consults 5.1 different sources of information to make a purchase decision. 49% of buyers involved in purchase decisions do not engage with the vendor's representatives themselves.
3 out of 5 buyers are now millennials. They consult more resources on average than older generations. Millennials are more likely to rely on reviews compared to older buyers and are less likely to rely on the analyst, the vendor's website, or vendor reps.
The most important factor when evaluating a product on a review site is the review content (qualitative feedback). 39% of buyers say this is key to their evaluations. Only 16% of buyers say the product's overall review score is the most important factor, a 27% drop from buyers focused on scores in 2017.
Buyers are spending much of their process doing anonymous research. Focusing on information they can get independent of vendors, without filling out a lead form.

IRA Financial announced today that it has become the first Self-Directed IRA Custodian to allow IRA and 401(k) plan clients to buy Bitcoin directly from Gemini Trust Company, LLC (Gemini), a cryptocurrency exchange and custodian, for one low fee without an LLC or using a Third-Party Broker.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
IRA Financial Group & IRA Financial Trust Company, a leading financial technology self-directed IRA and 401(k) plan provider & custodian, is excited to announce its new digital solution for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency investments.
"IRA Financial has integrated with Gemini to be the first self-directed retirement provider to allow for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency investments directly from our digital app," said Adam Bergman, President of IRA Financial. "We wanted to offer a solution that allows our clients to buy cryptocurrencies directly through an exchange without the need for using an LLC or a third-party broker firm."
This new digital solution will allow our self-directed IRA and 401(k) plan clients the ability to buy and sell cryptocurrencies at any-time without the need of a broker, control transaction costs by sidestepping the need for an LLC or costly broker, and best of all, trust Gemini as the licensed and qualified custodian of their cryptocurrency private key. We strongly believe that the best way to buy bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies with IRA funds is with this solution– which provides the IRA client with total control over their cryptos and the ability to do away with the need for an LLC or excessive broker commissions.
IRA Financial Group & IRA Financial Trust Company's self-directed IRA and solo 401(k) plan platform allows investors to invest in IRS approved alternative asset investments digitally and with no account valuation or minimum balance fees. The primary advantage of using a self-directed IRA to make private IRS approved alternative asset investments, such as real estate, is that one can diversify their retirement assets and invest in what one knows and trusts.

The offering supports information security, IT and DevOps teams juggling security priorities, regulatory demands and digital transformation.
"We're witnessing a rise in the frequency of security breaches, device takeovers and network outages – creating an exposure epidemic," said Jordan Rackie, chief executive officer at Keyfactor. "Enterprises are struggling to adapt to the rapid rise of connectivity and the need to secure IoT devices, cloud infrastructure and DevOps environments with agility. Keyfactor Command 7 enables them to stem that epidemic and propel their enterprise forward."
In a recent survey, 44 percent of security and IT professionals indicated that lack of skills and expertise is the greatest challenge they face in managing their organization's PKI, with 37 percent of respondents citing the secure adoption of DevOps, cloud and IoT as a primary concern.
According to Gartner Inc., the world's leading research and advisory company, "technical professionals tasked with delivering effective identity and access management (IAM) capabilities should: establish a PKI management regime and leverage certificate management tools to manage and monitor SSL/TLS certificates, and focus on enabling automatic outage detection and mitigation, compliance and policy requirements and crypto-agility."*
We believe Keyfactor provides the most complete PKI operations solution delivered from the cloud, enabling both enterprise security teams and IoT device manufacturers to operate end-to-end agile digital identity management.

Improved Tracking and Auditing – Enables auditors to retrieve a complete audit log of every user activity and configuration change within the platform.

Extended Discovery – Expands certificate discovery capabilities with support for Server Name Indication (SNI).

Enhanced Reporting – Includes a new, expanded library of pre-packaged and customizable reports.

"Data security and compliance remain top-of-mind for every enterprise, especially as auditing processes continue to evolve," said Ted Shorter, chief technology officer and co-founder at Keyfactor. "While PKI is a foundational requirement for the enterprise, it has long been a manual and time-intensive process. No longer. Keyfactor enables teams to manage increasingly large and complex certificate deployments. Ultimately, IT teams must embrace automation where they can to future-proof identity management and overcome the exposure epidemic."

Sixgill Integrity Delivers Ironclad Data Veracity with Real-Time Performance and Alerting, at Scale, for Enterprise Processes Informed by Data Streams and IoT Networks

SANTA MONICA, CALIF. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
Sixgill, LLC, a leader in data automation and authenticity products and services, today announced the commercial launch of Sixgill Integrity 1.0 for blockchain-enforced data authenticity.
Sixgill Integrity fulfills the critical enterprise need for end-to-end, real-time data authenticity assurance with robust capabilities to monitor and guarantee the veracity of any data stream, including today's sensors emitting time-series data in any form.
Integrity provides organizations with absolute assurance that the data they create, transmit, process, act on, and store remains unchanged and tamperproof throughout its lifecycle. In short, Integrity ensures that organizations – including their stakeholders, regulators, clients and others – can truly trust their data, particularly for high-stakes data automation applications.
Blockchain is too slow to achieve real-time operational performance for most mission critical use cases if all the data must flow through the blockchain. Sixgill chose a hybrid, on-chain/off-chain architecture. Integrity ensures that organizations will benefit from the unparalleled security, transparency and immutability of private and public blockchain networks, while using off-chain capabilities for storing, processing, verifying and safely operationalizing vast amounts of data.
Use cases for Sixgill's new blockchain-secured data authenticity solution span a wide range of industries and needs, including these:

Healthcare: Permanent auditability, traceability and certainty required for regulatory-grade medical and clinical trial data records

Supply Chain: Immutable data evidence of authenticity of goods origin and permanent traceability to originating data source(s)

FinTech: Unalterable transaction records for permanent audit trails

Utilities: Backbone data integrity for widely distributed infrastructures enabling centrally managed, system-wide programmatic actions triggered by device, data, and contextual rules for operating on data truth

Insurance: Verified data lifecycle authenticity from smart devices, smart homes, sensor-intensive vehicles, smart buildings, etc. for rate setting and claim settling

Video Surveillance: Permanent data immutability and auditability for tamperproof video data streams with configurable alerting to any tampering

Integrity's benefits are already being realized in the healthcare industry. New York and Austin-based Litmus Health – an early pilot adopter– uses Sixgill Integrity in its end-to-end data science platform for clinical research to ensure the immutability of clinical trial data.
"We needed to be able to provide sponsors and, ultimately, the FDA, with an ironclad lineage for their data," says Dr. Samuel Volchenboum, Chief Medical Officer for Litmus Health. "Implementation of Sixgill Integrity helps ensure that all data is collected, stored and analyzed in an immutable, trackable and auditable way," says Dr. Volchenboum.
For industries that rely on audit trails, Integrity provides a vital solution for compliance support and defense against data breaches involving electronic records. This can include health information and clinical research data, as well as financial, accounting and billing records, manufacturing design controls, ecommerce sales, IT helpdesk records, university student records, quality assurance and control, 3-D printing and CNC instruction sets, and even voting records.
"In today's highly digitized and data-intensive world, ensuring the authenticity and integrity of data has become a mission critical concern," says Phil Ressler, CEO of Sixgill. "Any data compromise whatsoever can have disastrous business, operational, legal, regulatory, or even life-threatening consequences. Sixgill Integrity improves on the unrivaled integrity of blockchain by adding in real-time operational speed and scale that today's organizations require."
Sixgill Integrity 1.0 Technical Details
Integrity stands apart from other data security offerings in that it combines the maximum-integrity properties of distributed ledger technology (DLT) with the speed of a modern distributed data system. This is made possible by Integrity's unique on-chain/off-chain architecture that marries the immutability of private and public blockchains with an off-chain data layer that preserves real-time performance at scale.
By combining DLT and (where possible) Edge computing, Integrity is able to use blockchain and cryptography to completely authenticate data origin and verify data content and chronology.    
Sixgill Integrity 1.0 provides organizations with:

End-to-end data lifecycle immutability

Permanent and continuous regulatory-grade data auditability

A powerful, fully configurable rules engine that can define and trigger actions

Full functionality that is data-, device-, and ledger-agnostic

A comprehensive dashboard for rules and operations monitoring, with real-time analytics

Automated real-time alerts of any data compromise

Device authenticity validation

Deployment to single tenant private clouds or custom on-premise deployment

SaaS version coming in 2020

Data Integrity Is An Emerging Enterprise Necessity
The need for data security and authentication has never been greater. The continued rapid expansion of data processing in the cloud makes these complex networks ever more vulnerable to intrusions, while the proliferation of connected devices vastly expands the attack vectors into device networks. Sixgill regards networks as indefensible and assumes bad actors can and will get into any system. Sixgill sees data itself as defensible, with Integrity the result.
Data streams exploding from the Internet of Everything (IoE) can be tampered with, hacked or changed without even the most diligent organizations ever knowing – or not knowing soon enough to avert severe damage. Sixgill Integrity provides the data security backstop that today's organizations so desperately need.
Contact Sixgill (info@sixgill.com) for more information. View or download a Sixgill Integrity product overview here, along with this independent IoT Data Security Market report from Frost & Sullivan, which profiled Sixgill as "a leading provider of IoT data services."
About Sixgill
Sixgill provides a full suite of universal data automation and authenticity products and services that enable organizations to govern IoE assets. With the Sixgill product suite, organizations easily acquire, analyze and act on IoE data, at any velocity or scale. Meeting the increasing necessity for end-to-end sensor data management, process automation and analytics for sensor-informed operations, Sixgill offers Sense for IoE data enrichment and automation, Sense Vision for ML-based camera data intelligence, and Integrity for blockchain-based authenticity.

Only APM Solution to Provide Visibility Into Orchestrated Applications, the Orchestration Infrastructure and Orchestration Management System

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 19, 2019
Instana, the leading provider of real-time Application Performance Management solutions for Kubernetes based applications, today announced support for the Rancher Kubernetes management platform. Instana will now detect, identify and indicate Kubernetes clusters being managed by Rancher.
"The deployment and management of applications continue to become more complex, especially when microservices apps are orchestrated via Kubernetes," said Peter Abrams, COO and co-founder at Instana. "It's critical for Application Management solutions like Instana to provide the most complete visibility into the structure of application infrastructure, while leveraging the observability built into those systems."
Two years ago, Instana became the first APM solution to provide monitoring and insights into Kubernetes-based applications. Last year, the automatic APM solution added support for monitoring Kubernetes pods and clusters in addition to the applications running on top of the orchestration infrastructure. The latest release adds visibility into the orchestration management layer developed and deployed by Rancher.
DevOps teams using Instana alongside Rancher gain access to best-in-class application performance management and orchestration management to operate mission-critical applications. Instana allows all application stakeholders, from IT Operations to development, to get the information they need to identify and fix any problems that may occur.
Instana automates the discovery of services, automatically understands their quality and immediately presents information on quality and performance to DevOps. Unlike conventional monitoring solutions, Instana's automated APM solution operates without requiring ongoing engineering effort, human configuration, or even application restarts. Developers are able to determine build quality with one click. Likewise, traditional Ops teams can quickly understand the root cause of performance issues in production.
As customers leverage Rancher to bring a consistent management layer to their Kubernetes environments, Instana and Rancher are working together to do the same for performance visibility. Instana automates application observability and monitoring for microservices deployed into a Rancher managed Kubernetes environment. When Rancher is present in the system, Instana shows Rancher in the technology stack, application map and Kubernetes dashboards, allowing users to drill into any Rancher managed Kubernetes environment.
Instana is demonstrating its new Rancher capabilities at the KubeCon conference in San Diego at booth G9. Visit https://instana.com/rancher for more information.

New Auto Power Budget Feature Finds Stranded Data Center Power Capacity to Increase Efficiency and Reduce Expenses

SOMERSET, N.J. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 20, 2019
Sunbird Software, the global innovator in data center management software, today announced the general availability of its latest dcTrack Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) Operations software. Release 7.0.1 further positions Sunbird as the industry standard in second-generation DCIM with a brand-new feature that brings automation to data center power capacity planning.
"The new Auto Power Budget feature enables a radical change in how data center managers plan power capacity," said Herman Chan, President, Sunbird Software. "Traditional methods lack accuracy and present stranded power, as all instances of a server model are given the same budget value based on the nameplate data. With Release 7.0.1, Sunbird unlocks precious rack capacity as each individual server model instance has a unique budget value that's automatically set from real-time outlet-measured power readings."
New Auto Power Budget Feature Automates Data Center Power Capacity Planning
dcTrack Release 7.0.1 introduces the new Auto Power Budget feature. The feature enables data center managers to eliminate stranded power capacity so they can get the most out of their existing capacity. With seamless integration to a multitude of intelligent rack PDUs on the market, Sunbird now automatically updates IT device power budget values based upon customer created policies using live readings from outlet metered rack PDUs. By providing complete monitoring and balancing of critical power resources, Release 7.0.1 helps data center managers ensure that there is sufficient capacity to support the explosion of web service applications without overspending on unneeded capacity while maintaining redundancy to maximize uptime.
"Capacity planning and power monitoring are the top two benefits data center professionals want from DCIM, according to our research," said Daniel Bizo, Principal Analyst, 451 Research. "Establishing actual power profiles is difficult without a toolset designed for this. Sunbird Software's 'Auto Power Budget' feature, along with metered infrastructure, provides a toolset that automates the calculation of each compute device's power profile, enabling professionals to more accurately forecast their power needs and save money by getting the most out of their existing power resources."

Live Feedback And Integration With Unity Game Engine Among Latest Improvements; 30% Discount Available Through Holidays

MOSCOW (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 20, 2019
iPi Soft, LLC, developers of the marker-less motion capture technology iPi Motion Capture, announced enhancements to its iPi Recorder 4.4.4 and iPi Mocap Studio 4.3.0 software. New features include improved live feedback and foot tracking for depth sensors, further integration with the Unity gaming engine, as well as support for Azure Kinect sensors. iPi Soft is also offering a 30 percent discount on iPi Motion Capture throughout the holidays.
"The live feedback improvements are key capabilities that will accelerate the motion capture workflow for game designers and visual effects artists," Michael Nikonov, Founder and Chief Technology Architect of iPi Soft, says. "Tighter integration with the Unity real-time game engine is a huge benefit that will provide content creators increased flexibility to create projects quickly and with more accurate results."
Improved Live Feedback:
The new version of iPi Mocap supports higher resolution in tracking mode providing more motion capture accuracy with lower jitter, while the smoothing filter can now remove visual jitter during live feedback tracking.

Support For Azure Kinect Sensors:
Azure Kinect sensors recently released by Microsoft are a new generation of popular Kinect depth sensors that have better depth quality, wide field of view mode and other advantages over Xbox 360 and Xbox One Kinects. iPi Motion Capture now supports Azure Kinect giving customers improved tracking quality and the ability to use the system in spaces as small as 7-feet by 5-feet.

Advanced Metadata Capabilities to Accelerate Data Discovery and Boost Security

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CALIF. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 20, 2019
Egnyte, the only secure content platform built for business, today announced new content intelligence and security capabilities that will improve discovery, structure, task automation, and protection of enterprise content. This is the latest development to the Egnyte platform as the company continues to augment its industry-leading content intelligence engine.
With metadata intelligence enhancements, users can implement custom metadata and classification in a flexible, no-code approach. Users can recognize savings in time and resources by being liberated from the confines of the traditional folder structure. This layer provides faster access to data and more control over content, which enables better operational use of their enterprise content. Additionally, customers can apply security policies and automate the entire data lifecycle — retention, deletion, and archiving — based on the criteria that matters most to their business.
"Enterprises are dependent on their content. Yet, 80% of all business data is unstructured and 90% of all unstructured data is never analyzed. It's essentially, 'dark data'," said Vineet Jain, CEO and co-founder of Egnyte. "With the addition of advanced metadata capabilities, content can be automatically given structure which makes it findable and usable. With this deep visibility, content can be rapidly deployed, in context, to solve business problems. At Egnyte, we've always been big believers that machines should do the heavy lifting, while humans exercise judgment and make decisions. This is just one more way we are accelerating access to information and giving customers an advantage leg up in their governance and compliance efforts."
The Egnyte platform is currently used by more than 16,000 organizations across the globe to provide structure to unstructured data and to improve the visibility and context of their content. Powered by machine-learning, rules-based data classification, and Egnyte's custom metadata API, companies like Preqin Financial can extract business insights from their content, accelerate data discovery, and operate in compliance with government and industry regulatory frameworks.
"Recently, Egnyte was positioned in the Major Players category within the IDC MarketScape for Worldwide SaaS and Cloud-Enabled Content Applications," said Marci Maddox, Research Director, Enterprise Content Strategies, IDC. "By continuing to build out advanced metadata features, Egnyte simplifies the descriptive task of unstructured content, giving users greater insight and control over their content. This new offering also enables integration with other apps that supply meaningful metadata, which is critical for data intelligence. This is a major expansion to its current secure content management offering."
Advanced metadata capabilities accelerate data discovery for users. Egnyte is focused on building an improved user experience based on content intelligence that provides meaningful context and promotes productivity. Advanced metadata provides the foundation for next-level file analytics that will be powered by machine learning.
To learn more about the latest enhancements to Egnyte's secure content platform, visit the Egnyte blog.
About Egnyte
Egnyte is the only secure content platform that is designed specifically for business. Egnyte provides teams with secure file sharing capability and access to content delivered at hyper-speed, regardless of file size, location, device or bandwidth as well as compliant data protection, and infrastructure modernization—all through a single SaaS solution.

Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP released Episode 12 of its Trade Secret Law Evolution Podcast, which recently reached the top spot among trade secret law podcasts on iTunes.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 20, 2019
Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP released Episode 12 of its Trade Secret Law Evolution Podcast, which recently reached the top spot among trade secret law podcasts on iTunes. Episode 12 is titled "Focusing Trade Secret Identification and Whether After-the-Fact Protections Work."
Co-hosted by Greenberg Traurig Shareholder Jordan D. Grotzinger and Associate Kevin J. Cole, Episode 12 is a discussion of two cases that develop the key issue of trade secret identification, and a case addressing whether after-the-fact conduct can constitute reasonable measures to maintain secrecy.
Select takeaways:

It always helps to name files or categories of documents when identifying a trade secret at the pleading stage.

When identifying a trade secret, resist the urge to use lawyer-speak such as "and other confidential information." At best it can dilute, and at worst, defeat your ostensible trade secret identification. That is common sense. If you use language such as "including but not limited to," you imply there are other trade secrets that you have not identified.

Asking for the return of confidential information after the fact does not constitute a reasonable measure to maintain secrecy. You need to take affirmative steps; you can't "reverse engineer" protection.

The Trade Secret Law Evolution Podcast is designed to help business leaders, in-house counsel, and entrepreneurs stay current on trade secret law, to help them protect their companies' most valuable assets. Each episode addresses recent developments in the law and concludes with key takeaways. The podcast is available on the Greenberg Traurig website, as well as on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, and Spotify.
The Trade Secret Law Evolution Podcast was created by Grotzinger, who co-chairs the law firm's Los Angeles Litigation Practice. Grotzinger is a business trial lawyer focusing on trade secret law, consumer class action defense, financial services, and entertainment litigation in federal and state courts.

ReFirm Labs' expertise in vetting, validating and continuously monitoring the security of the firmware that runs IoT and embedded devices will assist USAF in solving critical security challenges in its supply chain for aircraft and communication systems

FULTON, MD. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 20, 2019
ReFirm Labs, a provider of the industry's first proactive IoT and firmware security solutions, today announced it has been awarded a $1 million Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract from the U.S. Air Force (USAF) Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC). A follow-on investment to ReFirm Labs' $50,000 Phase I contract awarded by AFLCMC in August, the new contract will enable larger-scale research on identifying security vulnerabilities in embedded firmware used in USAF aircraft and information systems.
"We're enthusiastic about continuing our collaboration on innovative solutions for the Air Force that address cyber security vulnerabilities and mitigate supply chain risk," said Derick Naef, CEO of ReFirm Labs. "ReFirm Labs leverages decades of experience securing devices for sensitive national security applications, and we're excited to continue offering our expertise as the Air Force works to define operations on the battlefield of the future."
In the fall of 2018, Secretary of the Air Force Dr. Heather Wilson and Air Force Assistant Secretary for Acquisitions and Technology Dr. William Roper jointly expressed the need to accelerate Air Force innovation to operate at the "speed of relevance" with businesses. In March 2019, AFLCMC's Pitch Day pilot leveraged the backbone of the Air Force SBIR/STTR (Small Business Technology Transfer) to award initial Phase I contracts to companies after they made their pitch to Air Force evaluators and to highlight those companies to a wide range of investors, defense industry partners, and Federal stakeholders.
The SBIR program is a highly competitive program that encourages domestic small businesses to engage in Federal Research/Research and Development (R/R&D) that has the potential for commercialization. Through a competitive awards-based program, SBIR enables small businesses to explore their technological potential and provides the incentive to profit from its commercialization. By including qualified small businesses in the nation's R&D arena, high-tech innovation is stimulated and the United States gains entrepreneurial spirit as it meets its specific research and development needs.
ReFirm Labs' Centrifuge Platform is the first solution that proactively manages the security of firmware, a specific class of software that provides the low-level control for the hardware of an IoT device. Centrifuge Platform can identify and report firmware abnormalities and vulnerabilities in less than 30 minutes, allowing companies and organizations to quickly analyze their firmware for hidden dangers and respond immediately to potential weak spots.

As tenants seek more transparency around internet connectivity and infrastructure, commercial listing platform includes Wired Certification ranking

VANCOUVER, B.C. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 21, 2019
Spacelist, a leading commercial real estate listing platform, has launched an integration with WiredScore, the company behind the only internationally trusted rating platform for a building's internet connectivity and digital infrastructure – Wired Certification. With this partnership, Spacelist now includes each building's Wired Certification level on its database of listings adding valuable insight into available properties.
WiredScore champions cutting-edge technology in commercial real estate as the only certification for rating the infrastructure, connectivity and technological capacity of commercial buildings. Buildings seeking Wired Certification are graded against an industry-vetted set of standards that assesses critical components of digital connectivity and in-building technology. Depending on the level of investment in connectivity, buildings can achieve escalating levels of certification, from certified to platinum.
"This integration provides easy access to valuable building connectivity insights for prospective tenants and real estate professionals using Spacelist," says Steven Jaffe, CEO of Spacelist. "WiredScore Certification details are automatically added to applicable listings, including a link to the certification report for that specific building."
"Spacelist's inclusion of Wired Certification rankings on its database of listings further validates the value tenants place on internet connectivity and its effect on business' productivity, efficiency and growth potential when searching for office space," said Andrew Freitas, Head of WiredScore in Canada. "Through this integration, we continue to increase the amount of transparency about in-building technology."
In an increasingly tech-driven economy, connectivity is fast becoming the most critical factor for tenants when selecting office space. A survey by Radius Global and WiredScore found that fast, reliable internet ranks second only to location as the most in-demand amenity in office buildings today. The widely recognized Wired Certification seal is a trusted symbol that identifies buildings that have been independently certified to provide the best-in-class connectivity infrastructure that businesses require to thrive.
Over 2,000 buildings and more than 500 million square feet of office space are committed to Wired Certification, with five million people currently working in Wired Certified buildings across North America and Europe. Canadian building owners have already registered 44.3 million square feet of office space to Wired Certification across Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa and Halifax.
WiredScore and Spacelist have been working together in Canada, Spacelist's primary market, since 2018. With Spacelist's recent expansion to the U.S., a much larger Wired Certified building database is now available to the benefit of Spacelist users in both countries.

Certification Ushers in a New Level of Easy to Use Security for Government Communications.

FULTON, MD. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 21, 2019
Attila Security, a leader in IP security, announced today that two of its advanced security solutions have achieved the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) Common Criteria certification.
The Common Criteria certification validates that a product meets strict security requirements for U.S. National Security System procurement. NIAP is the U.S. Scheme within the Common Criteria Recognition Arrangement (CCRA), which is mutually recognized by 31 member countries.
The two certified products are the Silent Edge Enterprise Server (SEES) and the GoSilent mobile client. These products enable secure VPN connectivity to be set up from any IP device with only two clicks, using a client smaller than a typical wallet. With the NIAP Common Criteria certification, these solutions are eligible for procurement, and are now available across the government.
"These certification processes are extremely rigorous, and having two products certified simultaneously is very unusual," said Vesh Bhatt, Co-Founder and CTO, Attila Security. "This standard is set by government, and our solutions passed with flying colors. This sets the stage for continued adoption of totally secure communications that are also totally simple to set up from anywhere. Nation-state level security has never been so easy to implement and use."
The SEES is a purpose-built virtual appliance that provides a high-performance NIAP certified firewall, VPN gateway/server and centralized management of GoSilent Clients. It offers system administrators a simple and intuitive web based management console.
The GoSilent mobile client is a portable enterprise-grade firewall and VPN. It's ideal for sensitive communications, and is the first solution that makes it possible to physically separate the two layers of encryption.
GoSilent fits easily into a pocket, purse or briefcase for mobile security from anywhere by anyone. It offers plug-and-play security for any IP-enabled device (i.e., laptops, tablets, smartphones, loT, and legacy devices). GoSilent takes away all the risk typically associated with Internet connectivity over unsecured WiFi.
"This certification success is a direct result of the passion for simplified endpoint security that led us to launch Attila," said Gregg Smith, CEO, Attila Security. "Our award winning GoSilent technology was designed to protect our nation from advanced cyber attacks, zero-day threats, and data theft. These certifications will now help more agencies put these advanced products to work protecting their communications and their data."

AllkindsofTherapy.com top treatment directory destination for parents in crisis reports over 60% of 100K visitors are arriving via desktop search, not mobile device.

PORTLAND, MAINE (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 21, 2019
Google disclosed 1 in 20 of all online searches are healthcare related. Consumers want healthcare information and therefore, AllKindsofTherapy.com average session length is two minutes. Treatment programs that advertise must reveal a depth of facts like accreditation type, whether a therapist is licensed, clinical hours with clients, and types of evidence-based treatments or staffing ratios at troubled teens or young adults treatment and transitional living programs. "Like NBC's 'Must See TV' in the 1990's, parents are in front of their computers, researching intervention or treatment options. This is not casual mobile browsing or grab a phone number directory. Parents sit down, in front of a full sized screen, and search topics that keeps their attention," said Jenney Wilder, founder of AllKindsofTherapy.com.
Launching in 2015, AllKindsofTherapy.com changed the standard for rehab directories, from marketing bedrooms and photos of buildings, swimming pools, to provide a level of consumer transparency and features like comparing details side-by-side, like cars.com or electronics websites. "Families want to investigate treatment modalities, the treatment program's medical rule outs, family involvement, if the treatment program is accredited by Joint Commission, CARF or AEE and not have to jump from website to website." Wilder goes on to say, "These facts reveal aspects of programming that prior to All Kinds of Therapy, only industry insiders were focused on learning."
When the parent of a teen in crisis or a young adult is 'failing to launch' because their anxiety, depression, learning disabilities are revealing themselves in substance use, poor choices in friends, and outpatient therapy was unsuccessful, parents need answers, instead of promotion. Revealing treatment programs' clinical and operational facts turns a highly emotional decision into an unvarnished side-by-side comparison. AllKindsofTherapy.com allows parents to do the intense web research they need to make a difficult life decision. The website divulges what mental health disorders or co-occurring diagnoses a wilderness therapy program, therapeutic boarding school, residential treatment center, hybrid gap year or transition program are able to enroll. It demystifies the industry.
About All Kinds of Therapy
Launched in 2015, allkindsoftherapy.com is located in Portland, ME. An advertising based online treatment directory focuses on the Family Choice Behavioral Healthcare, substance abuse industries, wilderness therapy programs and supportive Gap Year options for troubled teens and young adults. The website allows consumers to research treatment levels, models, or varying interventions inside and outside the home. The feature rich website with robust filtering has advertisers in the United States, Puerto Rico and Costa Rica.

The Town of Breckenridge has officially joined BidNet Direct's Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System to help simplify their bid and RFP distribution process.

BRECKENRIDGE, COLO. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 21, 2019
Today the Town of Breckenridge has officially joined the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System to help simplify their bid and RFP distribution process. The Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System is one of BidNet's 49 regional purchasing groups throughout the country which offers participating local government agencies an e-procurement solution. The Town of Breckenridge invites all vendors to register online with the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System to access its upcoming solicitations at http://www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado.
With the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, vendors register to access one centralized location with opportunities from 246 participating agencies throughout Colorado. By posting upcoming solicitations to the regional purchasing group, rather than their website, the Town of Breckenridge hopes to make it easier for more vendors to access their documents. They also hope to expand the reach of their solicitations to a more diverse vendor pool. Unlike the prior process of only publishing bids to a webpage, the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System provides a method to track all bid activity, including the details of vendors who have received or downloaded a bid.
"Sometimes distributing a bid on our site just isn't enough," says Christopher McGinnis, Civil Engineer of the Town of Breckenridge. "Posting the bid for an entire regional community of vendors to see will help us reach more variety of qualified local suppliers. We like that with the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System we can quantifiably track the level of diversity."
The Town of Breckenridge invites all local vendors to visit http://www.bidnetdirect.com/colorado and register to receive access to its upcoming solicitations as well as the upcoming bids and RFPs from 245 other public agencies participating on the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System. Registered vendors also gain access to a team of experienced customer service support representatives and can upgrade their service to receive customized bid alerts, advanced notice of term contract expiration, and notification of a recently posted addendum.
About the Town of Breckenridge:
The Town of Breckenridge is located 9,603 feet above sea level in a U-shaped valley on the western slope of the Continental Divide. Established in 1859, the Town has survived and thrived throughout history and now boasts world-class amenities for residents and visitors alike. Your day can be filled with everything from a class in the Arts District, to a yoga class at our Recreation Center, to a ski at the Gold Run Nordic Center, to a concert at the Riverwalk Center, to a game of hockey at the Stephen C. West Ice Arena - the possibilities are endless. Of course, the Breckenridge Ski Resort continues to be one of the most visited amenities in Breckenridge. But summer is not to be forgotten. Locals always say, "I came for the winters and stayed for the summers."
About Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System:
The Purchasing Group is a part of BidNet's regional purchasing groups available at no cost to local government agencies throughout the country. With years of input from procurement professionals, BidNet specifically developed the bid system to fill the need for a robust bid and supplier management solution for local government agencies.

Keypoint Intelligence - Buyers Lab (BLI) today announced the winners of its BLI PaceSetter awards in Security.

FAIRFIELD, N.J. (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 21, 2019
Keypoint Intelligence - Buyers Lab (BLI), the world's leading independent evaluator of document imaging software, hardware, and services, today announced the winners of its BLI PaceSetter awards in Security. The award in the area of Imaging Technology Leadership recognizes the document imaging OEM that has the most comprehensive of offerings and programs when it comes to print-environment ecosystems. The award for IT Assessment & Remediation honors the vendor that has the most complete IT security services abilities for both general business and key vertical markets.
The winners for 2019–2020, based on research conducted for the North American market in late 2019, are:
HP INC.
BLI PaceSetter in Security: Imaging Technology Leadership 2019–2020
KONICA MINOLTA BUSINESS SOLUTIONS U.S.A., INC.
BLI PaceSetter in Security: IT Assessment & Remediation 2019–2020
To determine which OEMs lead the market, analysts at Keypoint Intelligence conducted an in-depth evaluation of the security offerings of 10 document imaging OEMs. The granular study drilled down into more than 75 points of potential differentiation spread across key categories: Vision and Market Leadership/Education, Security Assessment/Remediation Services, Fleet Management, Security Software Offerings, and Printer/MFP Platform Security (hardware and firmware security features).
"Information security consistently ranks as a top business priority in our research studies, driven by the great risks—both financial and reputational—associated with a data breach," said Jamie Bsales, Director of Solutions/Security Analysis at Keypoint Intelligence. "Manufacturers of office document technology have demonstrated strong leadership in this area, introducing hardware, software, and services that strengthen both networked MFP and printer devices as well as the IT network as a whole."
HP LEADS IN SEVERAL IMPORTANT CATEGORIES
HP stood out in many areas. In fleet management, the company offers the class-leading HP JetAdvantage Security Manager tool that can assess the security posture of HP devices on the network and automatically remediate devices whose settings are out of compliance with the specified security policy template. Its most secure MFPs offer advanced security features such as Run-time Intrusion Detection and the HP Sure Start self-healing BIOS. HP is also a leader when it comes to marketing efforts to educate customers and channel partners about device security. The company offers a print security training and certification program for both internal and channel partner sales teams, backed by a carefully crafted go-to-market approach that considers the security mindset of the customer and pitches fleet management and other solutions accordingly. Moreover, each region has dedicated HP Security Specialists to work with channel partner sales reps and technical teams to implement security solutions and services at their client sites.
KONICA MINOLTA SCORES BEST IN SECURITY ASSESSMENT & REMEDIATION
Konica Minolta led the pack in the area of security assessment and remediation, bolstered by the IT security services portfolio of its All Covered subsidiary. Spanning areas like email security, patching and endpoint protection, penetration testing and vulnerability assessments, 24/7 security services, cybersecurity and vulnerability management, and IT compliance (including HIPAA compliance), Konica Minolta goes well beyond the document infrastructure to ensure top-notch data security. Another notable aspect of its IT security program is the availability of a vCISO (virtual chief information security officer) as a managed service. And when it comes to sales strategy, these security services can be provided directly through Konica Minolta or in partnership with an independent office equipment dealer—widening customer access to a hardened network infrastructure. Konica Minolta's strength in document security, in areas like data loss prevention and fingerprint reader authentication, as well as its investment in intelligence IP surveillance cameras and software, contribute to its overall standing as a security-focused technology company, too.

Kiite's Partnership With Vidyard Brings Video Content to Kiite's Playbooks Offering, Which Makes Knowledge, Training, and Coaching More Accessible to Employees

WATERLOO, ONTARIO (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 21, 2019
Kiite, a leading provider of sales enablement software, today has announced a new partnership with Vidyard, the top video platform for business. Kiite provides organizations with a scalable solution to connect disparate knowledge sources, capture tribal knowledge, and build focused sales playbooks to help teams maximize every interaction with buyers. Kiite's partnership with Vidyard now allows sales team to leverage the content in their Vidyard library to enrich the onboarding process, provide context to written content, and scale knowledge within sales teams.
"Sales teams are often working with a number of complex products across a variety of customers and verticals at any given time, and the knowledge they need to be successful in managing these deals isn't easily accessible to them, in the moment they need it," explains Joseph Fung, co-founder and CEO of Kiite. "We created Kiite Playbooks to make it easy for organizations to capture and deliver the knowledge their sales teams need, and so frequently these nuggets of business critical information are being captured in the videos that salespeople are creating to communicate both internally and with their customers. We're thrilled to bring Vidyard's capabilities to Kiite and enrich the content experience for high-performing sales teams."
"Video is at the core of our customer and employee communications, and having Vidyard's functionality embedded in the Kiite platform is a huge win," says Megan Durnford, Sales Enablement Manager at Opencare.com. "By giving our managers and leaders the ability to quickly record and embed videos in our playbooks, we can now deliver more organized onboarding, more thorough training, and better coaching."
Kiite's partnership with Vidyard was driven, in part, by analyzing the 5000+ playbooks that have been created by Kiite's customers and understanding how these playbooks could be more useful and relevant. Most Kiite customers are using video to help onboard and train sales teams, communicate major internal initiatives, and engage with customers, but didn't have a mechanism to integrate these knowledge-rich assets with their processes.
"Video is a better way to communicate with customers, partners and employees, but until now has not been easy to use within our day-to-day business workflows," says Michael Litt, co-founder and CEO of Vidyard. "With the Vidyard partner ecosystem, we're changing that. We enable solution providers to add video capture, sharing and tracking capabilities to their existing apps via a turnkey, no-cost solution. Together with our partner ecosystem, we're helping businesses go video in a way that simply connects with how they do business today."
Kiite Playbooks: Enablement on Demand
Kiite's Playbooks offering was purpose-built to address the increasing complexity of B2B sales. Recognizing that critical knowledge is often locked away in siloes, Kiite allows sales teams to instantly search and access information from multiple systems, and remix content into process-, theme-, or role-focused playbooks. Kiite enables agile sales organizations to:

Capture critical knowledge from front-line employees and external sources.

Deliver content in the context and format that's most useful to sales teams.

Find information, wherever it lives, with Kiite's powerful, cross-platform search

Understand what knowledge and resources are being used — and where the knowledge gaps are.

About Kiite
Kiite helps sales teams put processes and information into context with customized playbooks. Kiite enables agile sales teams with the information they need to handle each conversation with competence and competence, and allows employees to surface information and knowledge, regardless of where it lives, right when they need it.

Philanthropic funding from organization of craigslist founder to fuel launch of Veterans Assistance Program, support women veterans in cybersecurity.

(PRWEB) NOVEMBER 21, 2019
National nonprofit Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS) has received a $150,000 gift from Craig Newmark Philanthropies to expand its work to recruit, retain and advance women in the cybersecurity field.
It is predicted that, by 2021, there will be 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs around the world. Simultaneously, women currently make up 20 percent of the global industry, according to a March 2019 study. WiCyS works to help fill this industry gap with much-needed talent by training women in cybersecurity and connecting them with meaningful career opportunities. Since its inception in 2013, over 4,900 women in cybersecurity have participated in the organization's annual conference.
"WiCyS is a tribe of like-minded peers and mentors," said Ambareen Siraj, founder of Women in CyberSecurity. "We are a community that shares, supports, and, most importantly, works together to end under-representation of women in cyber."
With this philanthropic funding from the organization of craigslist founder Craig Newmark, WiCyS builds on its track record by launching the Veterans Assistance Program. This new effort offers exclusive opportunities to women veterans who are either currently in cyber or aspiring to transition into the field. The program helps veterans connect with WiCyS sponsors and partners, earn a discounted WiCyS membership, apply for the Veteran Fellowship Award, belong to an effective community forum, and more.
"There is a serious need in the US for talented people to help protect our democracy and defend the country from cyber threats," said Newmark. "WiCyS is helping veterans and other women answer that call by connecting them with opportunities and resources to succeed, ultimately beginning to remove the many roadblocks that continue to prevent women from advancing in the field."
The gift will also allow WiCyS student chapter members to compete for free in the National Cyber League (NCL) virtual cybersecurity competition, powered by Cyber Skyline. This competition experience helps to provide another layer of skills that are needed to advance in the cybersecurity workforce.
About WiCyS:
Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS) is the premier nonprofit organization with international reach dedicated to bringing together women in cybersecurity. Founded by Dr. Ambareen Siraj from Tennessee Tech University through a National Science Foundation grant in 2013, WiCyS offers opportunities and resources for its members and collaboration benefits for its sponsors and partners. The organization's founding partners are Cisco, Facebook and Palo Alto Networks. WiCyS' strategic partners include Amazon Web Services, Cisco, Equifax, Facebook, Fidelity Investments, Google, IBM, Lockheed Martin, Nike, Optum, PayPal, SANS Institute, and Target.

SysKit, a software development company recognized for its innovative enterprise solutions, just released a new Office 365 product - SysKit Point. It is created to empower all stakeholders to automate IT tasks and ensure security and control over all Office 365 services - SharePoint Online, Office 365 Groups, OneDrive, and Microsoft Teams.

ZAGREB, CROATIA (PRWEB) NOVEMBER 22, 2019
SysKit Point, the newest SysKit tool, is officially out. With collaborative Office 365 governance reporting, extended contextual Office 365 audit logs storage, and various security, compliance and analytics metrics, SysKit Point presents an all-in-one Office 365 governance solution. In the text below, discover more about SysKit Point's features.
Controlled delegates governance via web access
SysKit Point is a web app, with role-based access security included. It supports the entire organization and allows collaborative governance between stakeholders in the company. Every stakeholder can access the app within their own scope of permissions within Office 365. Global admins have full access, while site owners, group and team owners can access sites, groups, and teams within their domain.
Collaborative Office 365 governance
Role-based access to the app allows different users to use it according to their specific needs. Admins can delegate some of their management and governance duties to business users and focus on global security and configuration of a tenant. Business end-users are empowered to govern and report on their subordinates and the content they own. CSOs, compliance officers, and auditors can make use of the app as well, monitor user activity and make sure the company complies with their governance and security policies.
Office 365 inventory and changes tracking
Data will be automatically synced when starting the app for the first time, showing the entire Office 365 inventory. With every following use, the changes that occurred will be automatically shown, for easier management of the Office 365 platform.
Extended Office 365 audit logs reports
SysKit Point collects admin and end-user activities inside Office 365 allowing companies to detect any unauthorized changes or potentially malicious activities. It offers unlimited and unrestricted access to the entire history of audit log entries, which presents a welcoming shift from the built-in 90-day limitation of the Microsoft E3 license. The cost savings is an additional bonus, as SysKit Point comes at only a fraction of the price of a Microsoft E5 or additional AAS Premium licenses.
Advanced Office 365 sharing reports
The app offers the most advanced sharing reports for Office 365. Users can explore every detail of shared content throughout Office 365, including who shared it, who has access to it, and what type of access each user has.
