Adaptive Composition uses artificial intelligence (AI) to provide a richer, video-first meeting experience tailored for the enterprise

OSLO, NORWAY (PRWEB) JANUARY 16, 2020
Today Pexip announced Adaptive Composition, a new AI-powered technology designed to put people, not systems, at the heart of the meeting experience. With real-time face detection, auto-framing, and optimized use of screen real estate, Pexip's meeting experience works with any camera-enabled device and empowers people to engage with each other in a better way.
"The meeting experience is often broken due to the complexity of technology and user experience challenges. With Adaptive Composition, Pexip is taking an innovative, human-centered approach to enhance the user experience through automation that allows the technology to get out of the way and empowers meeting participants to focus on collaboration. While others are attempting to achieve this from a room perspective (i.e. zooming at camera level), Pexip is solving this at the platform level to provide a device-agnostic solution that works with the technology you already have." - Rob Arnold, Principal Analyst, Frost & Sullivan
Pexip's new meeting experience offers:
Participant auto-framing: Often, users do not realize how their video camera is framed in a meeting, causing them to appear off-centered or small in a large room. By automatically framing participants for an optimal view, users have a more natural, engaging experience. Adaptive Composition is device-agnostic and works with any camera or video system; it also improves the capability of room-based camera framing.
Intelligent composition: Traditional meeting services rely solely on basic voice detection to determine who is featured. When a person or group makes noise, other groups are often demoted to a smaller view, making people's expressions and reactions less visible. Pexip's Adaptive Composition prioritizes rooms with more people, in addition to the active speakers, to ensure the most active rooms remain featured at all times. It also makes better use of screen real estate by reducing the unused white space around video feeds.
New meeting indicators: Every meeting is different. People may join from different devices, join late, join the wrong meeting, or start recording in the middle of a conversation. Pexip's new meeting experience gives hosts the information they need to reduce disruptions during the meeting. New embedded meeting indicators show attendee count, audio-only users, and lock and recording status, so both hosts and attendees can focus on the meeting itself. In addition, display names appear when participants speak, ensuring that speakers are easily identified even without reaching the top of the meeting layout. This creates a less distracting user interface and allows individual speakers to remain in focus.
"We want to make virtual meetings just as effective as in-person meetings. With our AI-driven, video-first meeting approach, we're putting every person on an equal footing to ensure that everyone can be seen and heard. By removing complexity for end-users, we can deliver an outstanding meeting experience for organizations around the world." - Giles Chamberlin, Chief Technology Officer, Pexip
While dedicated video system and camera manufacturers offer similar framing functionality at the device level, Pexip is first to bring this experience to any participant, regardless of whether they join a meeting through a video room system, browser, or app. Adaptive Composition will be available as a tech preview in version 23 of Pexip's self-hosted software, Pexip Infinity, expected to launch in Q1 of this year.
To learn more, please visit Pexip's website.

EmpowerMX accelerates digital transformation of Joramco's paperless initiative towards real-time MRO operations

FRISCO, TEXAS (PRWEB) JANUARY 16, 2020
EmpowerMX today announced the full roll-out of it's transformative core MRO platform in the Middle East region. Joramco, has transitioned to Empower MX's core platform for digital MRO transformation, replacing the legacy Maintenix suite of point solutions.
The EmpowerMX solution will be Joramco's core system, allowing it to go paperless for numerous processes, including project management and timesheets, reduce turnaround times and quality escapes while improving velocity, efficiency and forecasting. This transition was achieved in record time, as EmpowerMX delivers the only purpose-built MRO management platform today.
Established in the early 1960s, Joramco, based in Amman, Jordan, is a leading independent commercial aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility serving a wide range of customers in the Middle East, Europe, South Asia, Africa, Russia and the CIS countries, offering services on several aircraft models from the Airbus, Boeing, and Embraer fleets. With recent investments from Dubai Aerospace Enterprise and a newly appointed CEO, Jeff Wilkinson, the company embarked on a massive transformation journey in 2017 to expand, modernize, and gain new customers. The year 2020 is marked as the Year of Efficiency, and EmpowerMX is a key partner in helping Joramco achieve this.
"We are delighted to welcome Joramco to the EmpowerMX family, and have worked hard to help the company smoothly transition to a complete paperless office in record time," said Dinakara Nagalla, CEO of EmpowerMX. "With Mr. Wilkinson's vision to transform Joramco into the leading hub for aircraft services for both Europe and Middle East, it was critical that our product experience and core capabilities worked for all business units—from shop to maintenance to line. With a short time-to-market window, we are proud to have delivered transformative outcomes to Joramco."
"When I came on-board at Joramco, the DAE vision was to start small and support existing aircrafts, and slowly acquire more regional MROs if the Joramco transformation became successful," recalled Jeff Wilkinson. "But that was too slow for me, and Joramco screamed untapped potential. Two years into the business, we are just getting started, and were looking for a partner who could share our vision for transformation, bring in the right platforms, and onboard our team without friction. EmpowerMX checked off all boxes."
By transforming the supply chain and operations into an all-digital platform, Joramco is able to drive real-time transparency, accountability, and safety measures across the organization. "We are truly state-of-art, and EmpowerMX has given us a core system that is future ready," concluded Wilkinson.
About EmpowerMX:
Based in Frisco, TX, EmpowerMX is a leading cloud-based software platform that is designed to accelerate digital adoption in the Airline, MRO, and Defense establishments. Our product suite helps Engineering and Compliance, Heavy and Line Maintenance, Shop and Materials Management.

One of the nation's leading authorized dealers for exquisite clocks is making sure shopping from its online store is hasslefree by streamlining the returns and exchanges process.

CHICAGO (PRWEB) JANUARY 20, 2020
Representatives with Chicago-based Timely & Timeless announced today that the company has launched a new interface for managing returns and exchanges by its customers.
"We are delighted to launch a more streamlined facility for returns and exchanges," said Paulina Hubli, spokesperson for Timely & Timeless before adding, "Internet shopping is convenient and prices are 30-40% less than in conventional stores but as a customer, you do not want to give up hassle-free returns, exchanges and personalized customer care."
"We want you to be completely satisfied with your new purchase and we make the whole process as easy and worry-free as possible," highlighted Hubli. "Use our TIMELY RETURNS interface or send us an email to timelyreturns (at) qwirly (dot) com and we will handle your return, exchange, missing or additional accessories requests and other customer care needs.
"If you do not like the item you purchased, send it back, it's that easy! We will gladly accept unaltered merchandise in sellable condition and original packaging for a full refund within 30 days of purchase no questions asked," said Hubli. "Please allow 2 to 4 business days to process the return once it's received. You will be notified via email once the refund has been issued. Refunds for returns are issued less the return shipping charges."
The company is already free technical support to its customers for replacing the movements in their clocks on their own rather than relying on specialized service.
Hubli explained that even though over 80% of the parts are purchased by the end-user, the movements and parts are traditionally shipped factory-oiled and ready for installation, but no instructions are included. Clock owners often have to reverse engineer by taking careful notes and photographs of the movement they replace during the removal process so that they can install the new one the same way. Unfortunately, that does not always work as movements may have slight changes in design that can throw one off the track.
Hubli went on to add that it is easy to identify the movement that clock owners need to purchase to replace the old one. Some clock movements can be determined by looking at the backplate and finding the exact same movement, but some very old clock movements need to be identified using conversion tables.
"For our customers, we have prepared technical guides and manuals for all the movements we offer, many complete with drawings and diagrams, and some even with video tutorials," Hubli highlighted and added, "we are ready to provide technical guidance over the phone when required."
Technical support provided on the website includes clock movements FAQ, Hermle clocks operation manual, Kieninger clocks operational manual, cuckoo clocks instructions, manuals and troubleshooting, alarm clocks instructions, and instructions for quartz clock replacement movements.
About Timely & Timeless Exquisite Clocks Emporium
As an authorized dealer of the world's most exquisite clocks, expectations are high that we will provide exceptional customer service, merchandise expertise, and an unwavering focus on customer satisfaction. We strive to continuously meet and exceed those expectations. We take great pride in our reputation for excellence. And we know that our reputation is on the line each and every time we talk to a customer or sell a new clock. We are also privileged to share in so many special moments in our customers' lives, including milestone occasions like weddings, anniversaries and retirements.

PALO ALTO, CALIF. (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Artificial intelligence security and defense company Synapse Technology Corporation today announced that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) awarded the company a contract to develop artificial intelligence algorithms for computed tomography (CT) machines at airports across the United States.
To date, Synapse Technology has deployed its technology on security X-ray machines at sites ranging from courthouses to airports on a global scale. The artificial intelligence algorithms automatically identify threats in baggage and alert human operators, adding an additional layer of security at these checkpoints. This new DHS contract represents an opportunity for the company to adapt the technology to new 3D CT scanning machines that are being broadly deployed.
"Our artificial intelligence platform has been designed to be adaptable across machine types. Applying the AI system to CT machines is the natural evolution of the product we've built over the last several years," said Ian Cinnamon, President of Synapse Technology.
Synapse Technology looks forward to collaborating closely with the Department of Homeland Security to deploy artificial intelligence technology on the newest security checkpoint scanning machines being installed across the country.
About Synapse Technology
Synapse Technology's AI platform Syntech ONE integrates with new and existing X-ray machines used at security checkpoints. Instead of security screeners relying solely on human cognitive abilities to identify threats like guns and knives, Syntech ONE augments and automates the detection of these dangerous items. Syntech ONE has already been widely deployed, having processed over 24,000,000 passenger bags at security checkpoints in four countries. The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) recognizes the value of Syntech ONE and has granted Synapse Technology Corporation a SAFETY Act award for its technology platform.
The research in this press release is being conducted under contract with the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate (https://www.dhs.gov/science-and-technology), contract 70RSAT20T00000014. The opinions contained herein are those of the contractors and do not necessarily reflect those of DHS S&T

Applying the artificial intelligence platform to CT machines is the natural evolution of the Syntech ONE product line.

Rapid Growth and Key Customer Acquisitions Mark Widespread Adoption of Largest Vendor-Agnostic Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) Platform

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Siemplify, the leading independent provider of security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR), today announced record results in customer bookings and revenue in 2019 compared to the previous year, underscoring high demand among enterprises and managed security services providers (MSSPs) for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of their security operations.
In 2019, Siemplify continued to expand its footprint within global enterprises and MSSPs, serving as the security operations platform behind many of the world's most advanced security organizations. Notable wins included a Top 10 global airline, a Fortune 100 logistics company, a Fortune 50 energy firm and a Fortune 500 food conglomerate. The company also cemented its leadership position as the most advanced SOAR platform for the MSSP market, adding several of the world's largest MSSPs to its already impressive list of service provider customers.
"Our success has been driven by not only helping to solve the most pressing challenges facing enterprises and MSSPs but also by the distinct ways we differentiate from our competition," said Amos Stern, CEO of Siemplify. "This includes delivering a vendor-agnostic SOAR platform that is rooted in deep security operation expertise and acts as a complete workbench for the security operations center, a patented threat-centric approach, and a unique combination of power and simplicity, which appeals to security analysts and engineers alike."
Notable 2019 Siemplify developments and milestones included:

Doubling annual recurring revenue (ARR).

Doubling the customer install base.

Raising $30 million in Series C funding to support the company's continued growth, bringing total capital raised to date to $58 million.

Securing a new patent for the company's innovative method to organizing and connecting security threat data.

Garnering prestigious recognition, including Black Unicorn Awards 2019, 2019 SINET 16 Innovators, The Software Report's 2019 Top 25 Cybersecurity Companies and CRN Emerging Vendor 2019.

Launching a worldwide partner program to grow channel efforts. Overall, partners can expect to see margins of 20 to 25 percent delivering SOAR from Siemplify.

Launching four major releases of the company's security operations platform with many innovations, including a unique crisis management module and reusable playbook blocks for best-in-class playbook lifecycle management, all running on new high-performance Linux architecture.

Momentum for SOAR shows little sign of abating. Gartner estimates that "by the year-end of 2022, 30% of organizations with a security team larger than five people will leverage SOAR tools in their security operations, up from less than 5% today."
Regarding the future of SOAR, the research and advisory company also states that "numerous acquisitions have been occurring consistently for three years. Vendors are looking to build a 'security platform' to add SOAR to, either natively or via acquisition, suggesting that more acquisitions are a real possibility. This scenario requires buyers' attention to create a contingency plan in case their SOAR tool is acquired by another vendor. At the same time, SOAR products must be vendor-agnostic to maintain value due to integration. The reality will more likely be that for some time independent (SOAR) solutions will continue to do a better job with their singular focus on roadmap execution and better treatment of being 'vendor neutral' with available integrations." (Gartner, "Market Guide for Security Orchestration, Automation and Response Solutions," 2019, Claudio Neiva, et al, 27 June 2019).
"2019 was a record-breaking year for us with countless achievements, but perhaps most importantly, we placed ample focus on laying the foundations to support our ambitious growth plans for 2020," Stern said. "The combination of our strategic alliance partnerships, expanding network of distribution partners, raving customers and, of course, the amazing Siemplify team could not position us better to capitalize on the category's continued growth."
About Siemplify
Siemplify, the leading independent security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) provider, is redefining security operations for enterprises and MSSPs worldwide. The Siemplify platform is an intuitive workbench that enables security teams to manage their operations from end to end, respond to cyberthreats with speed and precision and get smarter with every analyst interaction.

Findings indicate 40% of enterprises are doing some form of multi-cloud data management, and over half expect new and reallocated budget to fulfill the business needs.

BOULDER, COLO. (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Today's IT environment is hybrid and multi-cloud, spanning multiple public clouds, edge devices and the data centers. As a result, data is scattered across many locations, risking data loss, security vulnerabilities, compliance issues, and higher costs. As a result, a well-executed multi-cloud data management strategy has become necessary for business continuance, data protection, proper data governance, and cost optimization.
Evaluator Group's new "Trends in Multi-Cloud Data Management" study found that how more than two-thirds of enterprises are implementing or developing strategies to tackle the new hybrid multi-cloud reality.
"Multi-cloud is becoming the norm as enterprises look to work with multiple providers for business continuity and pricing leverage," said Krista Macomber, Evaluator Group Senior Analyst and author of the study. "This means that applications and their data need to be portable across varying public cloud environments, and also be interoperable with on-premises private clouds. In fact, application mobility was one of the top three drivers for multi-cloud data management."
Evaluator Group's study brings to light how enterprises are addressing the range of technology requirements associated with multi-cloud data management, including archive, compliance, data availability, data protection, storage optimization, and visibility. It also explores the business objectives and evaluation criteria for success that are driving multi-cloud data management initiatives. The study found that enterprises expect to use multiple products to address their needs, as no single tool or product available on the market today comprehensively addresses the scope of multi-cloud data management. As one client stated:
"Yes, we understand that we will need to use multiple vendors. Nobody has the holy grail of doing everything we need, because we have different requirements from different lines of business. We are focusing on putting buckets around what are the dire functions versus the nice to haves. Does this tool give us those dire priority things that we need?"
As multi-cloud data management is making its way into strategic planning conversations, "Trends in Multi-Cloud Data Management" is designed to provide peer feedback and technology utilization trends that can help IT professionals navigate this complex and developing technology discipline. For vendors, the study provides insight into customer requirements and purchasing processes.
"The landscape for multi-cloud data management technologies is at its infancy. Though most enterprises expect to leverage current tools in place, they also know they lack what they need to fully meet the needs of the business. As such, we expect enterprises to create strategies using current and new products over the next two to three years," stated Camberley Bates, Managing Director, Evaluator Group.
Evaluator Group's study includes an incisive survey and a number of in-depth, follow-up interviews. Participants were IT professionals that represented a range of responsibility levels, from senior vice president to operational administrator, and industries, including telecommunications, financial services, healthcare, retail, public sector, entertainment and media, manufacturing, and education.

SmartPlans, the third major offering from Pype, automates the process of extracting submittals and schedules from plans.

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Pype, a leading software-as-a-service (SaaS) construction tech company, has introduced SmartPlans, a revolutionary platform that employs artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to analyze project drawings and extract contract compliance items.
Compiling critical project compliance data found on drawings is a vital step in the planning process. If requirements are missed, projects incur unforeseen costs and completion is often delayed, exposing contractors to risk.
SmartPlans' computer vision and machine learning technology reads and analyzes PDF drawings that have been uploaded to identify and extract submittals. The system also allows users to easily export product, equipment, and finish schedules to expedite their procurement log and precon planning. This automation serves a second purpose, one at the heart of a contractor's bottom line: project risk mitigation. Built on an advanced AI engine, SmartPlans compares these captured requirements to those from millions of data points in its cloud, identifying and alerting users of potentially missing critical requirements.
"It's quite common that not all submittal requirements are called out on construction drawings," said Sunil Dorairajan, Pype's CEO and co-founder. "By identifying all requirements and deliverables up front, we're helping to eliminate a major source of project delays. We use AI to identify traditionally required items for specific scopes of work based on years of project data Pype has analyzed. SmartPlans' is taking potential litigation issues out of the courtroom and resolving them in the meeting room."
A Project Manager from a top 50 ENR contractor provided feedback during the beta phase of SmartPlans' development and said, "SmartPlans doesn't just help in bidding and other precon work; it's a solution that I see my team using on a daily basis during the construction phase as well."
"Tackling unstructured data in construction drawings was a major challenge for our engineering and data science teams," said Karuna Ammireddy, Pype's CTO and co-founder. "The SmartPlans platform is an evolutionary jump for our technology and represents the use of cutting-edge engineering to solve a real-world problem. We used five years of project data to build and train our AI engine to surface actionable project insights."
"Artificial intelligence and automation are transforming industries like construction," Ammireddy continues. "By being at the forefront of this technological breakthrough for construction documents and data analysis, we're seeing a more proactive approach to project planning that tremendously benefits contractors."
Pype currently works with over 40% of the ENR Top 400 companies and has been helping contractors dig deeper into project requirements since 2014. Their enterprise-grade software solutions have become a staple in contract compliance and risk management.
To learn more about Pype and its suite of software solutions for the construction industry, please visit https://pype.io/ or call (866) 531-7973.

Engineers can now easily seed their designs with reference design content available in their preferred CAD format.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Ultra Librarian (https://www.ultralibrarian.com/), the world's largest free cloud-based CAD library provider, today announced its continuing partnership with Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXIM) with the release of a new set of reference designs for use in the Ultra Librarian Reference Design Cloud.
Reference designs are a key tool to help engineers understand, qualify and successfully implement new components into their designs. To save time and reduce risk, engineers often end up using portions of the reference design circuitry in their design as these have already been tested and qualified by the component vendor.
Unfortunately, most reference designs are only available in PDF or other static formats requiring engineers to re-create the designs in their CAD tools, wasting time and creating opportunities for error during transcription.
The Ultra Librarian Reference Design Cloud provides reference designs in an intelligent CAD format that can be immediately leveraged by engineers. Using the Ultra Librarian Reference Design Cloud, engineers can view and then access these designs in their native CAD formats including: Cadence OrCAD, Allegro, Altium, Eagle, KiCAD, and Mentor as well as others.
"Our engineering team spends a lot of time and energy developing and verifying our reference designs," said Anders Reisch, managing director, Training & Technical Services at Maxim Integrated. "Our partnership with Ultra Librarian allows us to enable our customers to take full advantage of this valuable design resource to help them speed their path to production with Maxim devices. We look forward to seeing more customer adoption after this pilot phase."
The Ultra Librarian Reference Design Cloud is built using OrCAD Capture Cloud technology from Cadence Design Systems, providing a robust, user friendly and familiar cloud environment to view and download reference design content.
Maxim Integrated interactive reference designs are available now at https://www.maximintegrated.com/en/products/power/power-reference-designs-ecad.html.

The Managed Office Equips Companies with a Robust Managed IT Infrastructure, CyberSecurity, Document Printing and Cloud Storage in a Unified Solution

NASHVILLE, TENN. (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Business technology firm Novatech, Inc. today announced its Managed Office solution, a comprehensive palette of managed print, managed IT, cloud and cybersecurity services. The Novatech Managed Office enables companies to leverage technology holistically to focus on driving greater profits. It empowers them with a seamless solution for all the core functions that facilitate superior productivity, availability, reliability and security, replacing outdated "bolt on" solutions and operating approaches.
"The information age has progressed rapidly since it began nearly four decades ago, and savvy business leaders recognize they need to approach technology radically differently than they did even 10 years ago," said Novatech CEO Dan Cooper. "One important element of this transition is to outsource capabilities that are better handled by experts. It's no longer practical — or cost effective — for firms to stay abreast of rapidly evolving solutions such as the cloud, cybersecurity, document printing and storage. Yet, not having expert capabilities puts them at a competitive disadvantage and, potentially, at extreme risk."
Novatech's Managed Office incorporates a full slate of unified, complimentary solutions:
Managed Print Services: Conventional copy and print equipment, software and services stepped up to meet today's demand for end-to-end document management as well as production, 3D and wide-format printing.
Managed IT Services: 24/7/365 support that includes a world-class network operations center, a SOC 2 Type II-compliant data center, onsite and remote troubleshooting, and a Technical Account Manager assigned to every client.
Cloud Solutions: Expert configuration and management of industry-leading, cloud-based platforms for backup, security and storage combined with trusted enterprise-wide applications like Microsoft Office 365.
CyberSecurity: Cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions and platforms, including unified email management, compliance and a 12-Layer Security solution that covers the full spectrum, from data backups to firewall port lockdown.
"In today's digital economy, data — rather than physical equipment — is any organization's most valuable asset," said Dave Moorman, President of Managed IT Services for Novatech. "Having corporate data secured yet accessible is mission-critical, and our solutions support both objectives at the highest level. By taking this approach, we can empower firms of all sizes with big-company operating abilities. Simply put, the Managed Office is the future of work."
The launch of the Novatech Managed Office Solution coincides with the one-year anniversary of the merger of two well-regarded technology firms, DynaSis and Novatech, Inc. Today's Novatech represents a converged operation blending two different worlds — one of infrastructure and technology; the other of managed document printing and storage. The organization maintains headquarters in Nashville, an IT command center in Atlanta and sales offices throughout the U.S.
About Novatech, Inc.
The Managed Office Experts at Novatech empower businesses to increase productivity, lower costs, minimize risks and drive growth through Expert Guidance in consultation, design, implementation and support of cutting-edge business technology. The Novatech portfolio of Managed Office solutions liberates clients to focus on running their business – leaving the tech to an award-winning provider with over 25 years of industry-leading experience.

Trepp, a leading provider of information, analytics, and technology to the structured finance, commercial real estate (CRE), and banking markets in collaboration with Commercial Real Estate Direct, founded in 1999 with the idea of bringing high-end news and information to professionals in the CRE industry, have released their 2019 Year-End Magazine: "CRE Disrupters, Finding the Next Big Thing."

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Trepp, a leading provider of information, analytics, and technology to the structured finance, commercial real estate (CRE), and banking markets in collaboration with Commercial Real Estate Direct, founded in 1999 with the idea of bringing high-end news and information to professionals in the CRE industry, have released their 2019 Year-End Magazine, titled: CRE Disrupters, Finding the Next Big Thing. Access the full magazine here: https://info.trepp.com/year-end-2019-commercial-real-estate-direct-email-pr.
Last year, $96.7 billion of domestic, private-label CMBS was issued, topping 2018's issuance by nearly 30 percent. Few predicted such an active year because of the expectation for interest rates to climb, but the opposite happened.
The 10-year Treasury yield, which briefly topped 3 percent in 2018 and ended the year just below that level, steadily dropped from there, falling to as low as 1.47 percent in 2019. With healthy lender competition, borrowers consistently were able to lock in loans at rates with four handles. Due to stable or even improving property fundamentals and values, owners were able to refinance loans before their term expirations, often through defeasance. So even though not many loans were coming due, loan origination volumes exploded.
"The CMBS issuance story is just one of a number in this issue of the Year-End that looks into the businesses that have disrupted the CRE sector," says Orest Mandzy, Managing Editor of CRE Direct. "CMBS, which started just more than 25 years ago, brought transparency, speed, and efficiency to the commercial mortgage lending world, which previously moved at a snail's pace."
Since then, we've seen coworking become a key cog in the national office market, bringing flexibility to both tenants and landlords, and Airbnb, which perennially threatened the viability of the hotel sector, actually expand the universe of potential hotel visitors. Crowdfunding, which became notable because of legislation passed seven years ago, continues to promise to democratize the entire commercial real estate sector.
The magazine also provides a summary of the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of the CRE market last year. You'll also find our annual CMBS Awards and a few pieces written from industry experts from firms such as the Mortgage Bankers Association and the CRE Finance Council. Download CRE Direct and Trepp's full magazine here: https://info.trepp.com/year-end-2019-commercial-real-estate-direct-email-pr.

Comprehensive set of features, user-friendly interface and scalability earn M-Files top recognition from leading business advice website

DALLAS (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
M-Files Corporation, the intelligent information management company, today announced that it has been selected as the best overall document management software of 2020 by Business.com, a leading website for expert business advice, tips and resources. According to Business.com, M-Files achieved the distinction in recognition of its ease of use, scalability for businesses of all sizes, useful collaboration tools and capabilities that extend well beyond document management.
"We selected M-Files as the best overall document management software because of its comprehensive set of features," cited Business.com in announcing the best pick in the category. "M-Files includes useful collaboration and workflow automation tools that are user-friendly and effective."
The M-Files platform received high marks for innovative permissions and workflow as well as task management functions, integrations, and offline access. Additionally, Business.com acknowledged M-Files for key capabilities such as version control, which it cited as "critical to safeguarding and tracking editable documents within a document management system."
Furthermore, Business.com noted, "For collaboration purposes, M-Files has a check-in and checkout function that allows users to alert others when they are actively editing a document. This prevents users from simultaneously working on the same document and overwriting one another's work, which could lead to 'version creep,' or the loss of information through confusion."
"We are pleased that Business.com has praised our visionary approach to information management, which leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to improve how businesses secure, process and manage data and content," said Maria Carballosa, chief marketing officer, M-Files. "M-Files provides a single source of information across existing systems and content repositories, applying powerful metadata that help businesses classify, organize and process information quickly and efficiently."
In their review, Business.com also noted the significance of M-Files Ground Link, a unique solution unveiled in November 2019 that integrates M-Files with on-premises repositories and systems like network folders and SharePoint Server. This allows for documents stored in SharePoint to be used in conjunction with Salesforce to improve customer relationship management and further centralize document management processes.
*As part of its methodology, Business.com interviewed business owners to determine top vendors to evaluate. Vendors were analyzed based on factors including ease of use, pricing, hosting options, search capabilities, scanning options, versioning, collaboration tools, security, integration, workflow abilities and mobile access.
About M-Files Corporation
M-Files provides a next-generation intelligent information management platform that improves business performance by helping people find and use information more effectively. Unlike traditional enterprise content management (ECM) systems or content services platforms, M-Files unifies systems, data and content across the organization without disturbing existing systems and processes or requiring data migration. Using artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in its unique Intelligent Metadata Layer, M-Files breaks down silos by delivering an in-context experience for accessing and leveraging information that resides in any system and repository, including network folders, SharePoint, file sharing services, ECM systems, CRM, ERP and other business systems and repositories.

New PKI-as-a-Service Orchestration Capabilities Support Threat Mitigation and DevSecOps Workflow Integration

CLEVELAND (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
Keyfactor, the leader in securing digital identities, today announced DevOps integrations with automation and containerization industry leaders Ansible, Docker, HashiCorp, Jenkins and Kubernetes to offer security-first services and solutions designed to seamlessly integrate with existing enterprise tools and applications.
"DevOps has radically improved agility and application delivery in organizations large and small," said Ted Shorter, chief technology officer and co-founder at Keyfactor. "Yet new DevOps processes and tooling have struggled to align security within workflows - software security typically takes more time than DevOps-centered software delivery cycles allow."
A rise in cryptographic-based attacks, like last year's ASUS attack, exploit third-party software and its digital certificates, allowing attackers to connect to sensitive backend systems or push malware through updater tools. Recent research indicates a 39% likelihood that organizations will experience a similar server certificate or key misuse incident over the next two years.
According to research firm Gartner Inc., "proper secrets management, including certificate and key management, is crucial to security agile applications."1
Digital certificates have long played an integral – if not routine - role in DevOps workflows, securing authentication across users, devices and applications. The secure identities the certificates establish reinforce key DevOps practices within infrastructure, pipeline, code and microservices integration, thereby bridging the DevSecOps gap and the ability to mitigate security risk.
"Our mission is to help DevOps teams establish critical trust at design through comprehensive and complete cryptographic management," said Shorter. "We want to make it easy to apply cloud-first, crypto-agility at scale to ensure all connections – especially those critical to business and human life – are trusted."
Keyfactor offers cloud-hosted PKI-as-a-Service infrastructure through integrated certificate and key management, secure signing and secure IoT device design. The platform provides discovery, integration and orchestration capabilities, enabling teams to gain complete crypto-agility, extensibility and visibility.
About Keyfactor
Keyfactor empowers enterprises of all sizes to escape the exposure epidemic – when breaches, outages and failed audits from digital certificates and keys impact brand loyalty and the bottom line. Powered by an award-winning PKI as-a-service platform for certificate lifecycle automation and IoT device security, IT and InfoSec teams can easily manage digital certificates and keys. And product teams can build IoT devices with crypto-agility and at massive scale. Exceptional products and a white-glove customer experience for its 500+ global customers have earned Keyfactor a 98.5% retention rate and a 99% support satisfaction rate.

The Bitcoin Conference of New York Blockchain Week has announced its 2nd edition for 2020, in New York on May 9th and 10th

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
The Magical Crypto Friends (MCF), consisting of Charlie Lee, Riccardo Spagni, Samson Mow, and WhalePanda, have announced that the 2020 Magical Crypto Conference (MCC) will take place in New York City on May 9th and 10th, to kick off New York's Blockchain Week.
MCC is a fun, light-hearted, and Bitcoin focused conference that gives guests a sense of detachment from the solemn atmosphere of New York's Blockchain Week. MCC follows in the footsteps of the playful theme of the Magical Crypto Friends YouTube show created by the four friends. MCC2020 gathers Bitcoin enthusiasts to celebrate their love for Bitcoin and the conference aims to create a bridge between the technical and non-technical, while giving everyone a chance to inspire and become enlightened on subjects relating to Bitcoin.
With its 50+ speakers, 24+ cumulative hours of insights, two stages, and two days of entertainment, MCC2019 was a great spectacle and earned rave reviews from its attendees. Now, the upcoming 2020 edition will be bigger and better. Notable industry leaders such as Adam Back, Meltem Demirors, Alex Gladstein, and Alyse Killeen have already been confirmed as speakers, and early rumors say that there might be new friends in animal form attending the event.
WhalePanda, self-claimed wittiest MCF of the four, stated, "We were overwhelmed by all the positive feedback we received last year. We want to provide high-quality Bitcoin-focused content during New York Blockchain Week, and the line-up that we have planned for our 2nd edition is even more impressive. We aim to make Bitcoin accessible to all, and that's also one of the reasons why we've committed 50 free tickets for our conference to special groups. One of the things I'm most excited about this year is our new Lightning Demo Room where projects can show potential users and investors what they're developing on the Bitcoin Lightning Network."
Magical Crypto Conference 2020 brings harmony between fun, learning, building, and sharing, with a big dose of cypherpunk. For more information visit the MCC website at http://www.magicalcryptoconference.com.

IPS, a leading provider of solutions that digitally transform the accounts payable process end-to-end, announced today that its Productivity Wrx℠ platform has transformed the payables process for one of the world's largest privately held media services agencies.

SECAUCUS, N.J. (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
IPS, a leading provider of solutions that digitally transform the accounts payable process end-to-end, announced today that its Productivity Wrx℠ platform has transformed the payables process for one of the world's largest privately held media services agencies.
Since deploying Productivity Wrx℠, the agency strengthened its media and supplier relationships, reallocated staff to higher-value tasks, eliminated data entry and streamlined access to invoice data.
The agency provides its clients with complete brand strategy, communications planning, and activation across all traditional and emerging channels, including digital, social and mobile. Its services include consumer insights, channel insights, creative media services, creative digital services, campaign measurement, dashboards and analytics, media research, competitive research, direct marketing, creative traffic services, and sports and entertainment marketing.
The tremendous amount of media that the agency places results in an enormous number of media vendor invoices each month. The company receives an average of 40,000 invoices per month. Until recently, the agency manually input the data from the paper and e-mailed invoices it receives into its media system for payment. Between 20 and 30 people spent days manually inputting the invoice data into the company's media system. As the agency grew, it knew that it needed to modernize its payables process to ensure that its suppliers were paid as efficiently, accurately and on time.
The IPS solution aggregates paper, e-mailed and electronic invoices, captures the invoice data, matches invoices with data residing in a media system, and enables clearing of invoices for payment. In addition, any unmatched invoices are automatically routed to suppliers or buyers to complete the reconciliation process on the downstream media system. With a click of a mouse, the media services agency's auditors can instantly access and select any payables documents to satisfy an audit.
The agency has achieved several benefits as a result of transforming its payables process with IPS:

The agency's staff has more time to focus on higher-value activities such as reconciliation, client billing and the year-end close.    

The agency pays more of the supplier invoices it receives on-time, strengthening its supplier relationships.

The agency's discrepancy resolution process has been greatly accelerated.

Agency staff can instantly respond to supplier inquiries.

The media agency continues to achieve better results and a higher percentage of straight-through processing as IPS further drives automation and quality in processing its supplier invoices.
"When it comes to paying the bills, media and advertising companies have the most complicated process," said IPS Founder and CEO Greg Bartels. "IPS Productivity Wrx℠ combines advanced digital technologies with IPS' unmatched expertise and experience in business process automation to uniquely address the challenges that media and advertising companies face. That's why eight of the nine largest global media and advertising companies have transformed their payables process with IPS. Today's announcement is further proof of our leadership in the media and advertising space."

Company Supports Organizations in Securing K8s Clusters with Industry-Proven Techniques and Strategies

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Portshift, a leader in identity-based workload protection for cloud-native applications, presents five security best practices for DevOps and development professionals managing Kubernetes deployments. Integrating these security measures into the CI/CD pipeline will assist organizations in the detection and remediation of security issues earlier in the development process, allowing faster and shorter cycles while assuring safe and secure deployments.
The use of containers continues to rise in popularity in enterprise environments, increasing the need for a means to manage and orchestrate them. There's no dispute that Kubernetes (K8s) has emerged as the market leader in container orchestration for cloud-native environments. Since Kubernetes plays a critical role in managing who and what could be done with containerized workloads, security should be well-understood and managed. It is therefore essential to use the right deployment architecture and security best practices for all deployments.
Because Kubernetes deployments consist of many different components (including: the Kubernetes' master and nodes, the server that hosts Kubernetes, the container runtime used Kubernetes, networking layers within the cluster and the applications that run inside containers hosted on Kubernetes), securing Kubernetes requires DevOps/developers to address the security challenges associated with each of these components.
To overcome these challenges, below are five security best practices for tackling the K8s security challenge:
1.    Authorization: Kubernetes offers several authorization methods which are not mutually exclusive. It is recommended to use RBAC for authorization policies controlling how the Kubernetes API is accessed using permissions. ABAC is an additional authorization mechanism that provides powerful and fine-grained policies, but it's more complex and has few operational constraints (e.g API server restart after permission changes).
2.    Pod Security: Since each pod contains a set of one or more containers, it is essential to control their deployment configurations. Kubernetes Pod Security Policies are cluster-level resources that allow users to deploy their pods securely by controlling their privileges, volumes access and classical Linux security options such as seccomp and SELinux profiles.
3.    Secure the Production Environment: As companies move more deployments into production, that migration increases the volume of vulnerable workloads at runtime. This issue can be overcome by applying the solutions described above, as well as making sure that your organization maintains a healthy DevOps/DevSecOps culture.
4.    Securing CI/CD Pipelines on Kubernetes: Running CI/CD allows for the build-out, testing, and deployment of workloads prior to their deployment in K8s clusters. Security must be baked at the CI/CD process to allow developers to quickly discover and mitigate potential vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. Otherwise attackers can gain access when these images are deployed and exploit these vulnerabilities in K8 production environments. Inspecting the code of images and deployment configurations at the CI/CD stage can achieve this purpose.
5.    Add Service Mesh to the Network Security Layer: The service mesh addresses common tasks associated with microservices in a unified and agnostic manner. Service mesh automatically balances inter-service traffic based on policies. It also offers a number of security, reliability, and observability benefits that can help manage cluster traffic and increase network stability that is enhanced by a "zero-trust" security model.
A powerful complement to K8s security infrastructure is the service mesh. It supports a secure cloud-native environment by automatically taking care of service discovery and connection so that both developers and individual microservices do not have to. Used in conjunction with Kubernetes, the service mesh supports applied security at the service level, not just at the network level. The service mesh enables the highest level of security when used in conjunction with identity-based workload protection to secure containers and microservices. Additional information about this is available at https://www.portshift.io/product/service-mesh-security/.
"As the leading orchestration platform, Kubernetes is in active use at AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Azure," said Ran Ilany, CEO and Co-Founder, Portshift. "With the right and holistic security infrastructure in place, it is set to change the way applications are deployed in the cloud with unprecedented efficiency and agility. Portshift delivers an intuitive and centralized way to govern Kubernetes microservices to make this a reality."

Tripp Lite, a global manufacturer of power protection and connectivity solutions, makes it easy to accommodate network upgrades in data centers and server rooms. New Category 8 (Cat8) Ethernet patch cables provide the fastest data transfer rates and largest bandwidth of any copper network cables available.
Designed for 25GBase-T and 40GBase-T networks, Cat8 patch cables transfer data at rates up to 40 Gbps, which is four times faster than Cat6a cables. The cables have RJ45 ends to connect 25 Gb/40 Gb equipment, including network switches, modems, routers, adapters, hubs and patch panels. To reduce latency in busy networks, the cables support up to 2 GHz (2000 MHz) of bandwidth, which is four times more than Cat6a cables. Cat8 cables also support Power over Ethernet (PoE) to provide power to PoE devices that do not have an AC power source nearby.
In addition to the fastest speed and largest bandwidth, the Cat8 cables feature shielded foiled twisted pair (S/FTP) construction to reduce interference. Each twisted pair has its own shielding to reduce near-end crosstalk (NEXT), and braiding around the group of pairs offers additional protection from line noise.
"Cat8 is the newest standard for copper network cables and provides a much faster alternative to Cat6a," said David Posner, Director of Product Marketing, Connectivity. "Tripp Lite verifies its Cat8 cables to meet the highest standards of performance, ensuring customers will get the speed and bandwidth they need for 40G network upgrades, now or in the future."

Report reveals key considerations that security decision makers should take into account when developing breach protection plans for 2020.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Cynet (http://www.cynet.com) today announced the State of Breach Protection 2020 Report which reveals several cybersecurity findings. One of the key insights is that most organizations are prioritizing advanced protection projects in 2020 and proactive protection is highly regarded by enterprise security professionals. A summary of the report findings and a link for the full report are available here: https://www.cynet.com/blog/2020-state-of-breach-protection-survey/
The State of Breach Protection 2020 Report is based on a December 2019 poll of 1,536 cybersecurity professionals to better understand the common practices, prioritizations and preferences within organizations with respect to protecting against breaches. Based on the results of the poll, one of the key findings is that there is a clear inclination within organizations to deploy advanced breach protection on top of standard anti-virus, firewall and email protection platforms.
The topics addressed in the report include what security professionals consider the top cyber risks; what security products these professionals have in place; the role of security services within the organization security stack; the need to consolidate the breach protection stacks and environment IT architecture and a focus on the cloud/on-premise balance. Other conclusions made in the report include:

Lack of cybersecurity platform consolidation is a major inhibitor against protection: Challenges of maintaining a multi-product security stack (especially in advanced security product groups) are stated as both the main obstacle in reaching the desired protection level, as well as an argument for not purchasing additional required security products.

Response orchestration beats automation: While a significant number of the organizations polled orchestrate their IR operations from a centralized interface, only a small part introduce automation to their remediation workflows.

Organizations have mixed feelings regarding security outsourcing: While the security skill gap compels organizations to outsource the more advanced portion of their security operations, there is still a strong inclination to keep things in-house, especially with respect to active attack remediation in their environment.

Tier 1 security solutions typically center on four product categories that comprise a security standard for the majority of organizations: Firewall, anti-virus (AV), email protection and vulnerability management are the de-facto common practices and can be regarded as baseline solutions implemented by the majority of cybersecurity professionals.

Deployment is the Achilles heel of endpoint protection: Only a small portion of organizations report that they deploy EDR/EPP on more than 85% of their endpoints with no deployment or maintenance issues. As in many cases, EDR/EPP is regarded as the main direction against advanced attacks. This is an alarming figure.

"The underlying theme of this report is the issue of cyber technology consolidation," said Eyal Gruner, Founder & CEO of Cynet. "While lack of consolidation is a dominant practice, most organizations view it as a core problem that must be solved. Cynet 360 is the world's first Autonomous Breach Protection Platform that consolidates and automates endpoint, network and user protection across the full security lifecycle: proactive monitoring and control, attack prevention and detection, and response orchestration."

As of January 2020, 31 percent more incoming freshmen have applied to attend Florida Polytechnic University compared to the same time last year.

LAKELAND, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Florida Polytechnic University is experiencing a significant increase in the number of students applying to become Phoenixes. At only two-thirds of the way through the 2020 recruitment cycle, the University has received 31 percent more freshman applications compared to this time last year. This includes a 44 percent increase in applicants from out of state.
The new numbers are a stark contrast to the current trends in postsecondary enrollment throughout the nation. Higher education enrollment for fall 2019 declined for the eighth consecutive year by 231,000 students across all types of institutions, according to the latest research from the non-profit organization National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. Public four-year colleges saw the largest decrease at 97,426 students.
The academic quality of the applicants to Florida Poly improved as well:

Average SAT of admitted freshmen is up 30 points to 1334.

Average ACT is up from 29 to 30.5.

Average GPA of admitted freshmen increased from 4.2 to 4.35.

"This is great news, especially in light of the national data," said Dr. Ben Matthew Corpus, associate vice provost for enrollment management. "As students learn about Florida Poly, they see a place where they can connect and engage in a state-of-the-art public university. We're a small, selective, and an intensely relevant institution where students aren't just a number."
Dr. Corpus said the surge in applications is a result of new team outreach efforts put in place to create greater awareness of the University not only in Florida, but throughout the country. These include:

new digital and teacher-centered strategies to connect with high schools more efficiently

the hiring of a full-time regional recruiter in the Northeast

a re-imagined campus visit program that connects cutting-edge tech, social and economic relevance that's engaging

new academic programs and targeted scholarships on sectors of STEM excellence

"We won't know if these additional applicants will all enroll until the fall, but it is definitely a very positive sign that the team's hard work is paying off," Corpus said. Transfer applications are also up 13 percent, as well as their quality. Average transfer GPAs are up from a 3.0 to a 3.4.
Another factor improving Florida Poly's attractiveness to prospective students is its recently attained ABET accreditation, as well as the addition of new programs of study such as Environmental Engineering, Engineering Physics, Engineering Mathematics and new concentrations in aerospace, digital design, and mathematics of medicine and biology. The University also is building the Applied Research Center, an 85,000-square-foot cutting-edge facility focused on research and innovation and scheduled to open in 2021.
"Florida Poly's programs put students directly on the path to making an impact on the economy and society, where students know they'll be highly competitive and employable well into the future," according to Dr. Terry Parker, executive vice president and provost..
"Students and families recognize that to stay career relevant as creative innovators, a degree from a selective STEM university is really the best choice."

Zenlayer has officially joined the Google Cloud Partner Advantage Program as a Cloud Interconnect Partner. Direct connections to Google Cloud through Zenlayer's global network are currently available in Mumbai, Hong Kong, and São Paulo, with more locations to follow in the near future.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Zenlayer has officially joined the Google Cloud Partner Advantage Program as a Cloud Interconnect Partner. Partner Interconnect is a service from Google Cloud that allows customers to connect to Google Cloud Platform globally. Direct connections to Google Cloud through Zenlayer's global network are currently available in Mumbai, Hong Kong, and São Paulo, with more locations to follow in the near future.
Zenlayer differentiates itself by being known primarily as a global edge cloud services provider with global reach. The choices of India and Brazil for two of these first connections is an extension of Zenlayer's multi-year plan to bring edge cloud services to emerging markets.
"Zenlayer not only offers direct connections to Google Cloud, but we can give you those connections no matter where you are in the world," said Joe Zhu, Zenlayer CEO and Founder. "There's no negotiating with a different third party for each region you want to connect in. If you're not already in a Google Cloud data center, you can co-locate with us, choose a managed hosting solution, or use our private backbone to make the connection to another data center. Either way, you'll be guaranteed minimal latency."
Ryan Yang, Zenlayer's Sr. Product Director, concurred, "We can provision connections instantly, not just to Google Cloud, but data centers and other public and private clouds around the world. If you're doing edge computing using Google Cloud in Mumbai and want to connect that data to a program running on AWS in Los Angeles, we can make that happen in just a few minutes if you're already using Zenlayer Cloud Networking or SD-WAN."
By connecting to Google Cloud through Zenlayer, companies can choose bandwidth speeds that meet their needs, from as low as 1 Mbps to as high as 100 Gbps. Furthermore, bandwidth can be adjusted at any time to meet demand.
Zenlayer expects to soon expand the number of locations in which it directly connects to Google Cloud. Of the 36 cities in the world with Google Cloud direct connections currently available, 13 offer ultra-low latency (under 5 ms). Two of those cities are Mumbai and Hong Kong. Zenlayer will strongly consider other ultra-low latency locations, with a preference for those in emerging markets such as India, Brazil, China, Indonesia, and South Africa.

Index Ventures and Crane invest in future of Serverless Computing.

RALEIGH, N.C. AND GENEVA (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
TriggerMesh, a Kubernetes based cloud native integration platform provider, today announced a seed funding round of $3 million led by Index Ventures and Crane Venture Partners. TriggerMesh will use the funds to scale the company and grow the development team that is delivering the industry's first cloud native integration platform for the serverless era.
TriggerMesh's platform will enable organizations to build enterprise-grade applications that span multiple cloud and data center environments -- addressing a growing pain point as serverless architectures become more prevalent.
TriggerMesh's platform and serverless cloud bus facilitate application flow orchestration to consume events from any data center application or cloud event source and trigger serverless functions. As cloud-native applications use a greater number of serverless offerings in the cloud, TriggerMesh provides a declarative API and a set of tools to define event flows and functions that compose modern applications. TriggerMesh provides the following features and benefits to today's modern enterprises:

Integration - Easily connect SaaS, serverless cloud offerings and on-premises applications to provide scalable cloud-native applications at low cost rapidly.

Modernization - Bridge legacy applications to the cloud extending your existing investment in traditional messaging systems

Programmatic - Integration of applications can be done through a declarative API backed by Kubernetes providing a unifying API across all services speeding development velocity

Visualization - See how all your serverless offerings and applications interact and where they are being executed giving complete situational awareness of all your cloud-native applications.

As part of their initiative to drive legacy and serverless offerings integration, TriggerMesh is also announcing the open source release of the following Knative event sources via GitHub as well as a TriggerMesh Openshift operator:

IBM MQ event source

VMware vSphere event source

Azure Event hub Channel controller

"Serverless adoption is growing rapidly and is a core component of many digital transformation projects in the enterprise. Because of this there's a huge need for integration with both Kubernetes-based and legacy applications. TriggerMesh's team of cloud veterans has the right experience to define the future of cloud native application connectivity and we're excited to be backing them on their journey," said Ari Helgason, Principal at Index Ventures, a venture capital firm that has also backed the likes of Confluent, Elastic, and Kong.
"There are huge numbers of disconnected applications that are unable to fully benefit from cloud computing and increased network connectivity," noted Scott Sage, co-founder, and partner at Crane Venture Partners. "Most companies have some combination of cloud and on-premises applications and with more applications around, often from different vendors, the need for integration has never been greater. We see TriggerMesh's solution as the ideal fit for this need which made them a compelling investment."
TriggerMesh is at the intersection of the growing serverless and Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) markets. According to VynZ Research, the iPaaS market will grow to $8.6 billion by 2024. Grand View Research reports the global serverless architecture market will reach $19.84 billion by 2025. The Cloud Native Computing Foundation 2018 User Survey reports that more than 50% of organizations today use serverless technology while an additional 20% plan to adopt serverless technology within the next 18 months.
"Serverless computing is based on event flows that tie together cloud services, on-prem resources, and functions," said TriggerMesh co-founder and Head of Product Sebastien Goasguen. "TriggerMesh's integration platform provides a way to describe those event flows that can use offerings from any clouds and trigger functions running on any infrastructure from A to Z (Amazon to Zoho)."
About TriggerMesh
TriggerMesh has developed the first cloud native integration platform that provides complete lifecycle management of serverless functions and tools for enabling application workflows across clouds and traditional data center applications. TriggerMesh accelerates development speed by reusing pre-built connectors and customizable templates to unify multiple clouds and legacy infrastructure.TriggerMesh's developers have extensive experience contributing to open source projects also supports and contribute to upstream projects like Kubernetes and Knative.

IPS, a leading provider of solutions that digitally transform the accounts payable process end-to-end, announced today that its Productivity Wrx℠ platform has transformed the payables process for one of the world's largest privately held media services agencies.

SECAUCUS, N.J. (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2020
IPS, a leading provider of solutions that digitally transform the accounts payable process end-to-end, announced today that its Productivity Wrx℠ platform has transformed the payables process for one of the world's largest privately held media services agencies.
Since deploying Productivity Wrx℠, the agency strengthened its media and supplier relationships, reallocated staff to higher-value tasks, eliminated data entry and streamlined access to invoice data.
The agency provides its clients with complete brand strategy, communications planning, and activation across all traditional and emerging channels, including digital, social and mobile. Its services include consumer insights, channel insights, creative media services, creative digital services, campaign measurement, dashboards and analytics, media research, competitive research, direct marketing, creative traffic services, and sports and entertainment marketing.
The tremendous amount of media that the agency places results in an enormous number of media vendor invoices each month. The company receives an average of 40,000 invoices per month. Until recently, the agency manually input the data from the paper and e-mailed invoices it receives into its media system for payment. Between 20 and 30 people spent days manually inputting the invoice data into the company's media system. As the agency grew, it knew that it needed to modernize its payables process to ensure that its suppliers were paid as efficiently, accurately and on time.
The IPS solution aggregates paper, e-mailed and electronic invoices, captures the invoice data, matches invoices with data residing in a media system, and enables clearing of invoices for payment. In addition, any unmatched invoices are automatically routed to suppliers or buyers to complete the reconciliation process on the downstream media system. With a click of a mouse, the media services agency's auditors can instantly access and select any payables documents to satisfy an audit.
The agency has achieved several benefits as a result of transforming its payables process with IPS:

The agency's staff has more time to focus on higher-value activities such as reconciliation, client billing and the year-end close.    

The agency pays more of the supplier invoices it receives on-time, strengthening its supplier relationships.

The agency's discrepancy resolution process has been greatly accelerated.

Agency staff can instantly respond to supplier inquiries.

The media agency continues to achieve better results and a higher percentage of straight-through processing as IPS further drives automation and quality in processing its supplier invoices.
"When it comes to paying the bills, media and advertising companies have the most complicated process," said IPS Founder and CEO Greg Bartels. "IPS Productivity Wrx℠ combines advanced digital technologies with IPS' unmatched expertise and experience in business process automation to uniquely address the challenges that media and advertising companies face. That's why eight of the nine largest global media and advertising companies have transformed their payables process with IPS. Today's announcement is further proof of our leadership in the media and advertising space."

Company Supports Organizations in Securing K8s Clusters with Industry-Proven Techniques and Strategies

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Portshift, a leader in identity-based workload protection for cloud-native applications, presents five security best practices for DevOps and development professionals managing Kubernetes deployments. Integrating these security measures into the CI/CD pipeline will assist organizations in the detection and remediation of security issues earlier in the development process, allowing faster and shorter cycles while assuring safe and secure deployments.
The use of containers continues to rise in popularity in enterprise environments, increasing the need for a means to manage and orchestrate them. There's no dispute that Kubernetes (K8s) has emerged as the market leader in container orchestration for cloud-native environments. Since Kubernetes plays a critical role in managing who and what could be done with containerized workloads, security should be well-understood and managed. It is therefore essential to use the right deployment architecture and security best practices for all deployments.
Because Kubernetes deployments consist of many different components (including: the Kubernetes' master and nodes, the server that hosts Kubernetes, the container runtime used Kubernetes, networking layers within the cluster and the applications that run inside containers hosted on Kubernetes), securing Kubernetes requires DevOps/developers to address the security challenges associated with each of these components.
To overcome these challenges, below are five security best practices for tackling the K8s security challenge:
1.    Authorization: Kubernetes offers several authorization methods which are not mutually exclusive. It is recommended to use RBAC for authorization policies controlling how the Kubernetes API is accessed using permissions. ABAC is an additional authorization mechanism that provides powerful and fine-grained policies, but it's more complex and has few operational constraints (e.g API server restart after permission changes).
2.    Pod Security: Since each pod contains a set of one or more containers, it is essential to control their deployment configurations. Kubernetes Pod Security Policies are cluster-level resources that allow users to deploy their pods securely by controlling their privileges, volumes access and classical Linux security options such as seccomp and SELinux profiles.
3.    Secure the Production Environment: As companies move more deployments into production, that migration increases the volume of vulnerable workloads at runtime. This issue can be overcome by applying the solutions described above, as well as making sure that your organization maintains a healthy DevOps/DevSecOps culture.
4.    Securing CI/CD Pipelines on Kubernetes: Running CI/CD allows for the build-out, testing, and deployment of workloads prior to their deployment in K8s clusters. Security must be baked at the CI/CD process to allow developers to quickly discover and mitigate potential vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. Otherwise attackers can gain access when these images are deployed and exploit these vulnerabilities in K8 production environments. Inspecting the code of images and deployment configurations at the CI/CD stage can achieve this purpose.
5.    Add Service Mesh to the Network Security Layer: The service mesh addresses common tasks associated with microservices in a unified and agnostic manner. Service mesh automatically balances inter-service traffic based on policies. It also offers a number of security, reliability, and observability benefits that can help manage cluster traffic and increase network stability that is enhanced by a "zero-trust" security model.
A powerful complement to K8s security infrastructure is the service mesh. It supports a secure cloud-native environment by automatically taking care of service discovery and connection so that both developers and individual microservices do not have to. Used in conjunction with Kubernetes, the service mesh supports applied security at the service level, not just at the network level. The service mesh enables the highest level of security when used in conjunction with identity-based workload protection to secure containers and microservices. Additional information about this is available at https://www.portshift.io/product/service-mesh-security/.
"As the leading orchestration platform, Kubernetes is in active use at AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Azure," said Ran Ilany, CEO and Co-Founder, Portshift. "With the right and holistic security infrastructure in place, it is set to change the way applications are deployed in the cloud with unprecedented efficiency and agility. Portshift delivers an intuitive and centralized way to govern Kubernetes microservices to make this a reality."

New Cat8 Cables are Four Times Faster than Cat6a Cables

CHICAGO (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Tripp Lite, a global manufacturer of power protection and connectivity solutions, makes it easy to accommodate network upgrades in data centers and server rooms. New Category 8 (Cat8) Ethernet patch cables provide the fastest data transfer rates and largest bandwidth of any copper network cables available.
Designed for 25GBase-T and 40GBase-T networks, Cat8 patch cables transfer data at rates up to 40 Gbps, which is four times faster than Cat6a cables. The cables have RJ45 ends to connect 25 Gb/40 Gb equipment, including network switches, modems, routers, adapters, hubs and patch panels. To reduce latency in busy networks, the cables support up to 2 GHz (2000 MHz) of bandwidth, which is four times more than Cat6a cables. Cat8 cables also support Power over Ethernet (PoE) to provide power to PoE devices that do not have an AC power source nearby.
In addition to the fastest speed and largest bandwidth, the Cat8 cables feature shielded foiled twisted pair (S/FTP) construction to reduce interference. Each twisted pair has its own shielding to reduce near-end crosstalk (NEXT), and braiding around the group of pairs offers additional protection from line noise.
"Cat8 is the newest standard for copper network cables and provides a much faster alternative to Cat6a," said David Posner, Director of Product Marketing, Connectivity. "Tripp Lite verifies its Cat8 cables to meet the highest standards of performance, ensuring customers will get the speed and bandwidth they need for 40G network upgrades, now or in the future."
Key Features of Tripp Lite's Cat8 Cables
•Data transfer rates up to 40 Gbps
•Bandwidth up to 2 GHz
•Support for Power over Ethernet (PoE)
•Shielded foiled twisted pair (S/FTP) construction to prevent interference
•RJ45 connectors with snagless design to protect locking tabs
•White PVC jacket
•Lengths up to 25 ft.

Report reveals key considerations that security decision makers should take into account when developing breach protection plans for 2020.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Cynet (http://www.cynet.com) today announced the State of Breach Protection 2020 Report which reveals several cybersecurity findings. One of the key insights is that most organizations are prioritizing advanced protection projects in 2020 and proactive protection is highly regarded by enterprise security professionals. A summary of the report findings and a link for the full report are available here: https://www.cynet.com/blog/2020-state-of-breach-protection-survey/
The State of Breach Protection 2020 Report is based on a December 2019 poll of 1,536 cybersecurity professionals to better understand the common practices, prioritizations and preferences within organizations with respect to protecting against breaches. Based on the results of the poll, one of the key findings is that there is a clear inclination within organizations to deploy advanced breach protection on top of standard anti-virus, firewall and email protection platforms.
The topics addressed in the report include what security professionals consider the top cyber risks; what security products these professionals have in place; the role of security services within the organization security stack; the need to consolidate the breach protection stacks and environment IT architecture and a focus on the cloud/on-premise balance. Other conclusions made in the report include:

Lack of cybersecurity platform consolidation is a major inhibitor against protection: Challenges of maintaining a multi-product security stack (especially in advanced security product groups) are stated as both the main obstacle in reaching the desired protection level, as well as an argument for not purchasing additional required security products.

Response orchestration beats automation: While a significant number of the organizations polled orchestrate their IR operations from a centralized interface, only a small part introduce automation to their remediation workflows.

Organizations have mixed feelings regarding security outsourcing: While the security skill gap compels organizations to outsource the more advanced portion of their security operations, there is still a strong inclination to keep things in-house, especially with respect to active attack remediation in their environment.

Tier 1 security solutions typically center on four product categories that comprise a security standard for the majority of organizations: Firewall, anti-virus (AV), email protection and vulnerability management are the de-facto common practices and can be regarded as baseline solutions implemented by the majority of cybersecurity professionals.

Deployment is the Achilles heel of endpoint protection: Only a small portion of organizations report that they deploy EDR/EPP on more than 85% of their endpoints with no deployment or maintenance issues. As in many cases, EDR/EPP is regarded as the main direction against advanced attacks. This is an alarming figure.

"The underlying theme of this report is the issue of cyber technology consolidation," said Eyal Gruner, Founder & CEO of Cynet. "While lack of consolidation is a dominant practice, most organizations view it as a core problem that must be solved. Cynet 360 is the world's first Autonomous Breach Protection Platform that consolidates and automates endpoint, network and user protection across the full security lifecycle: proactive monitoring and control, attack prevention and detection, and response orchestration."

As of January 2020, 31 percent more incoming freshmen have applied to attend Florida Polytechnic University compared to the same time last year.

LAKELAND, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
Florida Polytechnic University is experiencing a significant increase in the number of students applying to become Phoenixes. At only two-thirds of the way through the 2020 recruitment cycle, the University has received 31 percent more freshman applications compared to this time last year. This includes a 44 percent increase in applicants from out of state.
The new numbers are a stark contrast to the current trends in postsecondary enrollment throughout the nation. Higher education enrollment for fall 2019 declined for the eighth consecutive year by 231,000 students across all types of institutions, according to the latest research from the non-profit organization National Student Clearinghouse Research Center. Public four-year colleges saw the largest decrease at 97,426 students.
The academic quality of the applicants to Florida Poly improved as well:

Average SAT of admitted freshmen is up 30 points to 1334.

Average ACT is up from 29 to 30.5.

Average GPA of admitted freshmen increased from 4.2 to 4.35.

"This is great news, especially in light of the national data," said Dr. Ben Matthew Corpus, associate vice provost for enrollment management. "As students learn about Florida Poly, they see a place where they can connect and engage in a state-of-the-art public university. We're a small, selective, and an intensely relevant institution where students aren't just a number."
Dr. Corpus said the surge in applications is a result of new team outreach efforts put in place to create greater awareness of the University not only in Florida, but throughout the country. These include:

new digital and teacher-centered strategies to connect with high schools more efficiently

the hiring of a full-time regional recruiter in the Northeast

a re-imagined campus visit program that connects cutting-edge tech, social and economic relevance that's engaging

new academic programs and targeted scholarships on sectors of STEM excellence

"We won't know if these additional applicants will all enroll until the fall, but it is definitely a very positive sign that the team's hard work is paying off," Corpus said. Transfer applications are also up 13 percent, as well as their quality. Average transfer GPAs are up from a 3.0 to a 3.4.
Another factor improving Florida Poly's attractiveness to prospective students is its recently attained ABET accreditation, as well as the addition of new programs of study such as Environmental Engineering, Engineering Physics, Engineering Mathematics and new concentrations in aerospace, digital design, and mathematics of medicine and biology. The University also is building the Applied Research Center, an 85,000-square-foot cutting-edge facility focused on research and innovation and scheduled to open in 2021.
"Florida Poly's programs put students directly on the path to making an impact on the economy and society, where students know they'll be highly competitive and employable well into the future," according to Dr. Terry Parker, executive vice president and provost..
"Students and families recognize that to stay career relevant as creative innovators, a degree from a selective STEM university is really the best choice."

Index Ventures and Crane invest in future of Serverless Computing.

RALEIGH, N.C. AND GENEVA (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
TriggerMesh, a Kubernetes based cloud native integration platform provider, today announced a seed funding round of $3 million led by Index Ventures and Crane Venture Partners. TriggerMesh will use the funds to scale the company and grow the development team that is delivering the industry's first cloud native integration platform for the serverless era.
TriggerMesh's platform will enable organizations to build enterprise-grade applications that span multiple cloud and data center environments -- addressing a growing pain point as serverless architectures become more prevalent.
TriggerMesh's platform and serverless cloud bus facilitate application flow orchestration to consume events from any data center application or cloud event source and trigger serverless functions. As cloud-native applications use a greater number of serverless offerings in the cloud, TriggerMesh provides a declarative API and a set of tools to define event flows and functions that compose modern applications. TriggerMesh provides the following features and benefits to today's modern enterprises:

Integration - Easily connect SaaS, serverless cloud offerings and on-premises applications to provide scalable cloud-native applications at low cost rapidly.

Modernization - Bridge legacy applications to the cloud extending your existing investment in traditional messaging systems

Programmatic - Integration of applications can be done through a declarative API backed by Kubernetes providing a unifying API across all services speeding development velocity

Visualization - See how all your serverless offerings and applications interact and where they are being executed giving complete situational awareness of all your cloud-native applications.

As part of their initiative to drive legacy and serverless offerings integration, TriggerMesh is also announcing the open source release of the following Knative event sources via GitHub as well as a TriggerMesh Openshift operator:

IBM MQ event source

VMware vSphere event source

Azure Event hub Channel controller

"Serverless adoption is growing rapidly and is a core component of many digital transformation projects in the enterprise. Because of this there's a huge need for integration with both Kubernetes-based and legacy applications. TriggerMesh's team of cloud veterans has the right experience to define the future of cloud native application connectivity and we're excited to be backing them on their journey," said Ari Helgason, Principal at Index Ventures, a venture capital firm that has also backed the likes of Confluent, Elastic, and Kong.
"There are huge numbers of disconnected applications that are unable to fully benefit from cloud computing and increased network connectivity," noted Scott Sage, co-founder, and partner at Crane Venture Partners. "Most companies have some combination of cloud and on-premises applications and with more applications around, often from different vendors, the need for integration has never been greater. We see TriggerMesh's solution as the ideal fit for this need which made them a compelling investment."
TriggerMesh is at the intersection of the growing serverless and Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) markets. According to VynZ Research, the iPaaS market will grow to $8.6 billion by 2024. Grand View Research reports the global serverless architecture market will reach $19.84 billion by 2025. The Cloud Native Computing Foundation 2018 User Survey reports that more than 50% of organizations today use serverless technology while an additional 20% plan to adopt serverless technology within the next 18 months.
"Serverless computing is based on event flows that tie together cloud services, on-prem resources, and functions," said TriggerMesh co-founder and Head of Product Sebastien Goasguen. "TriggerMesh's integration platform provides a way to describe those event flows that can use offerings from any clouds and trigger functions running on any infrastructure from A to Z (Amazon to Zoho)."
About TriggerMesh

GRM Information Management, a leader in enterprise content management, has partnered with Innovative Document Imaging (IDI), a boutique, "white glove" document imaging organization. This strategic partnership will allow GRM and IDI to identify and nurture business development opportunities while providing sophisticated cloud storage and content management services to clients.

JERSEY CITY, N.J. (PRWEB) JANUARY 22, 2020
GRM Information Management, a leader in enterprise content management, has partnered with Innovative Document Imaging (IDI), a boutique, "white glove" document imaging organization. This strategic partnership will allow GRM and IDI to identify and nurture business development opportunities while providing sophisticated cloud storage and content management services to clients.

The partnership between GRM and IDI allows the two companies to leverage each other's experience and expertise in order to deliver comprehensive digital solutions for their clients' needs. This includes advanced security and information governance and compliance, as well as disaster readiness and recovery services.
Through the partnership, IDI can now offer sophisticated cloud storage and ongoing content management capabilities to their clients, housing images in GRM's VisualVault platform and giving clients access to the platform's extensive tools and functionality.
"IDI has a broad client base that will benefit immensely from our VisualVault platform," says Yossi Harel, Executive Vice President of GRM Information Management. "We're happy to partner with IDI to provide ongoing content management solutions to their clients, and we look forward to working together to cultivate further business development opportunities."

Recruitment technology provider promoted 33.2 million job openings in 2019.

FREDERICK, MD. (PRWEB) JANUARY 23, 2020
iHire announces the publication of its second annual U.S. Job Industry Recap and Outlook Report, a review of the 2019 job market and predictions for 2020. Exploring insights from the 33.2 million job postings shared across the company's 56 industry-specific talent communities in 2019 – and using 2018's data for benchmarking – iHire's report is available to download: https://go.ihire.com/5pg7.
Key trends found in iHire's Job Industry Recap and Outlook Report include:

Top Hiring Industries: Transportation (4.93 million postings), Nursing (3.72 million), and Technology (3.54 million) had the most job openings in 2019, while Sales, Retail, Engineering, Hospitality, Admin, Construction, and Accounting rounded out the top 10.

Top Career Titles: The most popular career titles in 2019 included Registered Nurse/RN (1.87 million postings), CDL Truck Driver (1.86 million), Sales Representative (1.77 million), and Software Developer (1.20 million) – the only four titles with more than 1 million postings on iHire's platform.

Top Desired Candidate Skills: Management (4.63 million postings) was by far the most sought candidate skill in 2019's job postings, reinforcing employers' need for qualified and experienced applicants. Runners-up included training and development (3.58 million), communication skills (3.25 million), and scheduling (2.98 million).

Top Hiring Geographic Areas: States with the most job openings in 2019 comprised California, Texas, Florida, New York, and Ohio, while New York-Newark-Jersey City and Chicago-Naperville-Joliet took the top two spots for hiring metro areas.

In addition to analyzing 2019's job and job seeker data, iHire detailed the following eight predictions for recruitment marketing and hiring in 2020:
1. Employers will keep the "human" in human resources, balancing technology with people as applicants move through the recruiting funnel.
2. Candidates will be disqualified, not rejected, in the application process and pipelined to quickly fill future positions.
3. Employers will shorten their application processes to improve the candidate experience, reduce job seeker frustration, and boost their employer brands.
4. Baby boomers aren't retiring anytime soon, giving companies another reason to embrace more inclusive hiring practices to reach untapped talent.
5. Applicant location won't be a hiring deal breaker, as the distributed workforce and telecommuting continue to grow.
6. HR will join forces with marketing in the SMB realm to integrate branding initiatives with recruiting.
7. Outplacement services will return to the mainstream in preparation for the next economic downturn.
8. Pre-employment assessments will support the quest for qualified applicants, focusing not only on skills, but also on personality, learning styles, and other characteristics.
"The U.S. job market held strong and steady in 2019," said Steve Flook, President and CEO, iHire. "Although 2019 brought about 5% fewer postings across our platform than 2018, we saw little variances in the top hiring industries, desired candidate skills, and other data trends. This lack of change means 2020 will continue to be a candidate-driven market – requiring organizations to focus on building their employer brands and providing positive applicant experiences if they want to attract and retain qualified talent."

Enterprises Continue to Adopt Morphisec to Protect Virtual Desktop Environments Against Unknown Threats

BE'ER SHEVA, ISRAEL AND BOSTON (PRWEB) JANUARY 23, 2020
Morphisec, a leader in Moving Target Defense, today announced that it has joined the VMware Technology Alliance Partner (TAP) program for its Unified Threat Prevention platform. This certification by VMware completes a rigorous evaluation process and validates Morphisec as customer fit in the protection of VMware Horizon VDI environments in both persistent and non-persistent pooled modes.
Morphisec, based on Moving Target Defense, consumes no CPU or memory resources, which makes it well-suited to VMware Horizon VDI deployments, enhancing security without adding performance overhead. As a result, enterprises dramatically increase their ability to prevent advanced malware, fileless threats, unknown zero days, and browser-based attacks in virtual desktop environments.
"We are pleased that Morphisec and its Unified Threat Prevention platform is validated for VMware Horizon VDI Protection," said Kristen Edwards, Director of Alliances, VMware. "The inclusion of the Unified Threat Prevention platform into VMware's marketplace indicates that Morphisec has met VMware interoperability standards. This signifies to VMware customers they can deploy Morphisec's Unified Threat Prevention platform into Horizon VDI environments."
Similar to physical endpoints, virtual instances are equally vulnerable to attacks and require robust protection. However, VDI resource constraints to CPU and memory make antivirus or detection security approaches unsuitable for individual virtual machines. Morphisec's lightweight architecture based on Moving Target Defense does not require analytics, signature updates, reboots, tuning or online connectivity in order to protect resource-sensitive VDI environments against advanced unknown threats.
"The rapid adoption of Virtual desktops has brought on unforeseen security blind spots that are being increasingly exploited," said Andrew Homer, VP of Business Development at Morphisec. "VDI environments are extremely sensitive to CPU and memory consumption, making it difficult to deploy traditional anti-malware tools. Morphisec's lightweight design based on Moving Target Defense, allows for greater protection for pooled non-persistent virtual machines without sacrificing precious VDI resources."
In addition to VMware Horizon, Morphisec is also certified with other VDI solutions on the market. Earlier this year, Morphisec was awarded a special VDI design project with the Department of Homeland Security for the protection of its Virtual Desktop Infrastructure. Morphisec's Unified Threat Prevention platform also protects physical workstation, server and cloud workloads and extends this same level advanced protection to VDI Horizon guest machines.
Morphisec is available online at the VMware Solution Exchange (VSX). The VMware Solution Exchange is an online marketplace where VMware partners and developers can publish rich marketing content and downloadable software for customers. To read more about how Morphisec protects VDI environments from unknown threats, please visit its VDI solution page.
About Morphisec
Morphisec delivers an entirely new level of innovation with its Moving Target Defense-powered Unified Threat Prevention Platform - placing defenders in a prevent-first posture against the most advanced threats to the enterprise, including APTs, zero-days, ransomware, evasive fileless attacks and web-borne exploits. Morphisec provides a crucial, small-footprint memory-defense layer that easily deploys into a company's existing security infrastructure to form a simple, highly effective, cost-efficient prevention stack that is truly disruptive to today's existing cybersecurity model.

CREATe.org funds projects focused on AI and anti-corruption; using technology to better protect IP in supply chains; forums to advance cybersecurity risk management; and a Trade Secret Legal Risk Assessment Guide

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) JANUARY 23, 2020
The Center for Responsible Enterprise And Trade (CREATe.org) today announces the award of four grants to fund projects that build upon CREATe.org's mission of providing practical resources to educate organizations on managing risk and improving governance and compliance.
The grants have been awarded to the following organizations and projects:

Coalition for Integrity–Guidance for corporations in developing or acquiring AI for use in their anti-corruption risk and compliance programs;

National Bureau of Asian Research–How organizations can apply emerging technologies–AI, data analytics and blockchain–to improve security of supply chains and better protect intellectual property (IP);

The Center for Cybersecurity Law and Policy–Creation of a multi-stakeholder forum to advance an international standard on cybersecurity risk management through dialogues and publications;

Global Trade Secret Institute (University of Akron)–Development of a Trade Secret Legal Risk Assessment Guide for aligning leading practices for protecting trade secrets with legal risk.

The projects focus on the key areas of risk that CREATe.org has championed since its founding in 2011: anti-corruption; cybersecurity; intellectual property (IP) and trade secret protection; and the ethics and responsibilities of artificial intelligence.
"CREATe.org was founded with the mission of providing leading approaches and practical guidance for companies so that they can improve governance and better manage risks across value chains. We are excited about these outstanding organizations and projects," stated Pamela Passman, President and CEO of CREATe.org.
Additional Grant Information
Coalition for Integrity
The Coalition for Integrity project involves developing a detailed set of guidance and best practices that companies can use when deciding: (1) whether to develop and deploy artificial intelligence (AI) as an integrated component of their anti-corruption risk and compliance programs; and (2) how to maintain such AI programs in a manner consistent with legal and ethical obligations and regulatory expectations.
"As anti-corruption risks for businesses increase, artificial intelligence has the potential to analyze massive quantities of data to identify potential patterns of corrupt conduct and aid in the prevention, detection, and reduction of corruption. The Coalition for Integrity is delighted to receive the grant from CREATe. org to produce guidance in an area that has largely been unexplored." – Shruti Shah, President & CEO of the Coalition for Integrity.
National Bureau of Asian Research (NBR)
The National Bureau of Asian Research (NBR) will investigate the application of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, and blockchain to improve the security of U.S. corporate supply chains. The research team will develop recommendations for companies across a variety of sectors on currently available technologies and opportunities to invest in new technological solutions to resolve difficult supply chain problems, such as the introduction of counterfeit components, theft of intellectual property (IP), cybersecurity breaches, or engagement with corrupt or sanctioned entities in sub-supplier networks.
"NBR has long recognized that supply chain security is central to protecting IP and reducing the risks of counterfeit components," said NBR President Roy Kamphausen. "This new project will engage top experts in cybersecurity, AI, and other technologies to employ new approaches to these supply chain challenges and thereby enhance U.S. economic and national security. We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work on this critical set of issues, thanks to the support of CREATe.org."
The Center for Cybersecurity Law and Policy
Worldwide, governments and industry sectors are actively looking to manage cybersecurity risk through the development and implementation of standards. Often, these standards are put into place without careful consideration of the long-term impact to economic well-being. Multinational companies seeking to align with effective standards themselves, will increasingly struggle to meet multiple mandatory standards in different countries and regions which will have direct economic costs to their customers. This project will create a forum for cybersecurity practitioners, advocacy organizations, governments, and industry to come together around the singular focus of promoting an international standard on cybersecurity risk management that benefits all stakeholders.
"The Center for Cybersecurity Policy and Law shares CREATe's mission of promoting international cybersecurity standards and best practices in a way that can be effectively implemented, measured, and improved by organizations of all shapes and sizes. Through this project, we look forward to engaging government and industry in ways that better manage risk." – Ari Schwartz, Executive Coordinator, Center for Cybersecurity Policy and Law
Global Trade Secret Institute
The Global Trade Secret Institute (GTSI) at the University of Akron School of Law is creating a Trade Secret Legal Risk Assessment guide, which will help businesses align their practices for protecting their trade secrets with the legal risks posed by doing business across borders. GTSI also publishes the Trade Secret Protection Index, a tool that rates the national laws and procedures for protecting trade secrets around the globe. The Legal Risk Assessment guide will help trade secret owners to identify when and where they must be particularly vigilant about protecting their trade secrets. The Guide will give them tools for particularly high-risk environments.
"This is yet another terrific opportunity for the Global Trade Secret Institute and CREATe to collaborate once again. We previously co-produced a guide for the Government of India to train small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in protecting their trade secrets. Our worldwide legal knowledge combined with CREATe's practical expertise is a strong combination, helping trade secret owners to understand their risks while giving them the tools they need to mitigate them." Mark F. Schultz, Director, Intellectual Property and Technology Law Program, University of Akron School of Law

The Center for Responsible Enterprise And Trade (CREATe.org) is a non-governmental organization (NGO) with a mission to promote leading practices in cybersecurity, intellectual property (IP) and trade secret protection, and anti-corruption.
Since 2011, CREATe.org has conducted a range of activities – from publishing reports and whitepapers, working with leading practitioners and experts through Advisory Councils, and contributing insights to a range of publications and events – designed to provide practical resources to educate organizations about the leading approaches to managing risk and improving governance and compliance. For more information, please visit http://www.create.org.
Coalition for Integrity (C4I) is a non-partisan 501(c)(3) organization that works on reducing corruption and increasing integrity in the public and private sector.

Underscores the need to protect what matters most: every individual's right to data privacy and security.

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 23, 2020
In support of #DataPrivacyDay, Spirion, a pioneer in designing the critical first step of data security and privacy, will launch a series of webinars around the critical nature of data privacy and the growing need for organizations to protect what matters the most: the personal data privacy and data security of their colleagues, customers, and communities.
The first webinar, titled "The California Consumer Privacy Act: Your Questions, Answered," will be held on January 28, 2020, at 1 p.m. EST. In this highly interactive webcast, data protection industry veteran Scott M. Giordano, Esq., Vice President and Sr. Counsel, Privacy and Compliance for Spirion, will answer pressing questions and share the latest updates from California's newly enacted consumer privacy law, which went into effect on January 1.
"When organizations collect sensitive, private data, they possess the most invaluable assets of their colleagues, customers, and communities," Giordano explains. "The real issue that organizations face isn't just about avoiding regulatory non-compliance; it's about preventing a breach of trust granted to them by their constituents. Once breached, trust―a fundamental driver behind an organization's image and ability to compete successfully―is nearly impossible to regain."
Spirion is a Data Privacy Day 2020 Champion as recognized by the National Cyber Security Alliance, an international effort held annually on January 28 to create awareness about the importance of respecting privacy, safeguarding data, and enabling trust. The company was also recently ranked by CIOReview magazine as one of the "20 Most Promising Compliance Technology Solution Providers of 2019," an annual listing of 20 companies that are at the forefront of providing compliance technology solutions and transforming businesses.

New IOPS world record: LINBIT's SDS solution reached 14.8 Million IOPS, creating the fastest hyperconverged system ever.

VIENNA (PRWEB) JANUARY 23, 2020
LINBIT, the force behind the open-source DRBD data replication software and LINSTOR software-defined storage (SDS), built a hyperconverged cluster that outperformed the previous performance record by 7.2 percent and reduced latency by 10 percent. Here are the results:

14.8 million remote read IOPS

10.6 million IOPS with 70/30 mixed read/write

5.0 million synchronously replicated random write IOPS

85μs synchronously replicated write latency

The 14.8 million read IOPS test toppled the record formerly held by proprietary software vendors, proving that Open Source software-defined storage provides enterprise class performance.
These exciting results use a container-based system with three-way synchronous replication for highly available persistent storage. The 12 server test cluster, consisting of standard off-the-shelf Intel servers, was provided through the Intel️ Data Center Builders program. The cluster is hyperconverged, meaning that the same servers are used to run the benchmark and to provide the underlying storage.
In a performance test, LINBIT measured 14.8 million IOPS. This is the highest storage performance reached by a hyperconverged system on the market, for this hardware basis. The test demonstrates that even a small LINSTOR storage system can provide millions of IOPS at microsecond latencies. For real world applications, LINBIT also tested 70/30 read/write workloads and the results of greater than 10 million IOPS correspond to outstanding application performance. More technical details are provided in their blog post about the setup.
LINBIT chose this setup because its competitors have published test results from equivalent systems. Previously Microsoft managed to reach 13.7 million IOPS, and Storpool marginally topped that with 13.8 million IOPS. LINBIT reached 14.8 million remote read IOPS - a significant jump of 7.2%. "Those performance numbers mark a milestone in the development of open-source SDS platforms. The numbers would scale up even further with a larger setup.
About LINBIT
They are the force behind DRBD and a leader in open-source Linux block storage software for enterprise and cloud computing. The LINBIT software has helped hundreds of global companies such as Volkswagen, Intel, Cisco, Siemens, and the BBC to provide High Availability (HA), Geo Clustering for Disaster Recovery (DR), and SDS for public and private clouds. Based in Vienna LINBIT partners with other companies like Redhat, Intel, IBM or DaoCloud to accelerate Linux storage software. For more information, visit linbit.com or follow @linbit
