Worldreader Leads Joint Program with Cheshire Services Uganda to Bring Digital Reading Solution to Underserved and Disabled Children Across the Kampala Region

SAN FRANCISCO AND KAMPALA, UGANDA (PRWEB) JANUARY 23, 2020
Intertrust has partnered with digital reading specialist Worldreader in support of the organization's work to improve literacy in underserved communities throughout the world.
Worldreader, a global NGO, has created BookSmart, an affordable digital reading solution that runs on full-color Android tablets. BookSmart helps students read, develop valuable 21st Century skills, and become life-long learners. The solution includes a subscription to 150 culturally relevant, curricularly aligned supplemental books plus an embedded Children's Oxford English Dictionary. Through a joint program with Cheshire Services Uganda, Worldreader is working with 20 schools around the Kampala area. The program has provided 1,000 BookSmart subscriptions for these under-resourced students.
"As a part of our program in Uganda, Worldreader sources content from local publishers that is relevant to learners, preserving the local culture and contributing to a strong reading ecosystem," said Flavia Moroso, director of technology at Worldreader. "Intertrust makes it possible for us to protect this and other content, while remaining true to our vision of creating a world where everyone can be a reader."
Using Intertrust's ExpressPlay DRM and the ExpressPlay SDK, Intertrust provides Worldreader with the ability to verify the identity of each BookSmart device and let users access the protected content on them. ExpressPlay is a multi-DRM cloud-based service that protects apps and other content such as e-books from piracy and theft by encrypting it. It is based on Marlin DRM, an open-standard content protection system for consumer devices and services which was co-developed by Intertrust, Panasonic, Philips, Samsung and Sony.
Device verification or 'provisioning' involves establishing an identity of the device and linking it to the identity of the device owner. During this process the device acquires a unique key that is linked with that identity. A total of 48 books on each BookSmart device require encryption, resulting in 48,000 tokens having been provided by Interturst so far with another 2,000 expected to be used as a part of the program this year.
"It is deeply gratifying to partner with Worldreader and bring the promise of a better life to children in the Kampala region," said Gadi Ittah, director of product management at Intertrust. "It is a privilege to be a part of the BookSmart program which is not only making a world of readers possible, but placing power and opportunity into the hands of those who most need and deserve it."
Worldreader's digital reading program in Uganda works with teachers in classrooms where girls and children with disabilities are at an historic disadvantage, face high dropout rates and increased barriers to learning. BookSmart offers tablets loaded with textbooks and supplementary reading materials to foster improved reading and learning. As a part of the program, teacher training is also provided on strategies for integrating a digital reading program into the classroom.
Finally, BookSmart provides schools and teachers with valuable insights into the actual reading practices within their classrooms. Data is collected from devices to give feedback to a consortium of partners which are able to better understand reading behaviors, content usage, and time spent on reading tasks. This information is critical for measuring the impact of the digital reading program.
Worldreader was co-founded by David Risher and Colin McElwee in 2010. The nonprofit has offices in San Francisco, Barcelona, Ghana, Kenya, and in Delhi as well as staff in the U.K.

HERZLIYA, ISRAEL (PRWEB) JANUARY 24, 2020
In the era of data theft and predictability, the cybersecurity and encryption industries are facing a shortfall and are struggling to keep up with the ever-evolving technology. Most of these rely on Random Numbers and can be shaken like a house of cards by the hackers.
Therefore, the world needs a new and strong solution that is capable of giving nightmares to cunning hackers instead of the data owners.

Another aspect that makes Random Quantum stand out of the crowd is its Cloud-Based Random Number as a Service (RNaas). Hence the data stored isn't dependent on a platform, hardware or architecture.
You can know more about this revolutionary product at the Cyber Tech 2020 event in Tel Aviv, Israel, which is one of the most prominent B2B networking platforms. It covers the scope of digitalization and opens new realms of opportunities while providing a solution to combat the treats within the cyber world.

For example, after the UK passed legislation to legalize online gambling, many other European countries, such as Italy, Spain, and France, followed suit.
Currently, the global online gambling market is anticipated to be valued at more than 94 billion US dollars in 2024. Since 2008, the gross gaming revenue (GGR) from online gaming has increased slightly, a significant proportion of which can be attributed to the rise of mobile gaming solutions on the market. Ten years later, in 2018, approximately half of the online gambling market in Europe was made up of online sports betting.
Millions of people are attracted to the exciting world of online gaming and casinos in order to compete for luxurious wins. However, with the rising numbers of participants, the possibility of fraud also tends to increase. Therefore, creating reliable KYC solutions that utilize up-to-date technologies is the only way to secure a reliable and smooth experience for the present and forthcoming future of online gaming.
Over the past few years, The Gambling Commission has sanctioned progressively firm regulations. One cannot avoid following the directives, but there are means to make them work better for you and use resistance as an improvement.
During the ICE London Conference, GetID is going to present the identity verification solution to over 35,000 professionals in various gaming sectors. GetID's product plays an important role in the customer onboarding process for online gaming and gambling.
It features:
1. Online identity verification in seconds from mobile or desktop by using native, customizable software development kits
2. An administration panel for fast and easy user management
3. Facial recognition and face-matching solutions
4. Automatic data extraction from documents; checking documents for authenticity.
"GetID has done a great job to develop an A-grade Online Identity Verification solution, and the company's latest efforts are to popularize the product, work on further enhancement, and create an impact on the industry. Gambling and betting is a business of its own complexity, and strict verification is a must-have; otherwise, this industry will be overwhelmed by fraudsters. We're about to change the situation here.
How do we make the process of online gambling better? First of all, we fight fraud and chargebacks. Secondly, we optimize the onboarding procedures for mobile and web. Our KYC process is automated and it helps to decrease operational costs," says Dmitri Laush, CEO of GetID.
Why ICE London?
Held on February 4-6, the ICE London Conference is the World's Gaming Innovation Showcase. One can meet a global network of gaming professionals across all industries and seniority levels, as it is aimed to provide the best opportunity to build relationships. By bringing together 600+ solutions and 35,000+ professionals across all sectors of gaming, this conference is going to be a complete platform to explore the future of gaming and drive revenue through invaluable meetings and networking opportunities.
Participants are able to learn from gaming industry leaders, through inspirational talks, and panel discussions about overcoming the challenges and capitalizing on market opportunities. The cherry on the cake comes in the form of outstanding hospitality, networking functions, and entertainment, making product discovery, business development, and idea generation fun and professional.
Following its latest success at Slush and Finance Magnates London Summit, one of the leading KYC and security solution providers, GetID picks this new destination to validate online casino/gambling/betting.
About GetID
The project team has successfully implemented a cutting-edge KYC aggregator within the flagship product - GetID. The main goal of this solution is fraud prevention, making such acts as onboarding fake clients and utilizing money laundering schemes with fake documents virtually impossible. But there's more - this solution is designed to optimize customer onboarding, aiming to speed up and automate the entire process. The company is also working towards digital ID to exclude the need for KYC procedures in every single service, which requires users to download tons of documents and waste their precious time.
The European company will soon welcome attendants at its booth and workshop. Startups willing to join the cause may receive numerous benefits here: GetID had come up with a lucrative pricing offer, excluding irrelevant setups and more. The company plans to grow alongside its clients; the primary reason to take the unnecessary fees out of the equation.
Successful public appearances at the FINANCE MAGNATES LONDON SUMMIT and Slush back in 2019 gave GetID a lot of media attention and brought on new clients. Hopefully, ICE London will also highlight the importance of KYC in the gaming industry.

Banc Intranets exceeded its strategic objectives in 2019, enhancing its products, internal processes, customer base and marketing efforts. The company is financially sound and well-positioned to expand on its achievements in 2020.

JOHNSON CITY, TENN. (PRWEB) JANUARY 24, 2020
Banc Intranets, a provider of secure, web-based enterprise content management solutions, is pleased to announce significant accomplishments in 2019 as well as a strong outlook for 2020. Last year, the company surpassed its financial goals, achieved continued growth in sales involving new and existing clients, made great improvements in its software, increased its focus on social media and streamlined its upgrade process.
"We are financially sound and appropriately staffed, and streamlining our upgrade process will help us maintain lower staff levels and still provide excellent customer support," said Banc Intranets CEO Mark Anderson. "Our technical support team operated at an increased level of efficiency, which speaks to the work our development team accomplished by streamlining the onboarding of new clients and the product upgrade/release process."
Last year, Banc Intranets added 22 new clients, which included Equity Bank in Kansas, United Community Bank in Illinois, Dean Bank in Massachusetts, SESLOC FCU in California and Argent Financial in Louisiana. Overall, its average client asset size is approximately $1.6 billion with an average of 260 employees. "2020 looks to be strong again given there seems to be a continuing trend of fewer bank closures and more start up banks," Anderson said.
Banc Intranet made great strides augmenting its BancWorks employee intranet and DirectorsLink board portal solutions last year. The enhanced versions of these products increased their features, functionality, and security for users. Enhancements included revamped document management capabilities, new site analytics, and a more robust ticket system. Improvements were also made to the employee recognition module based on user-specific feedback. "We covered more than 95 percent of client's requested enhancements and have a lot of clients using this module," he said.
During 2020, Banc Intranets intends to further capitalize on its operational efficiencies and deliver more enhancements and new capabilities across its solutions. By creating these efficiencies, the company feels it is well positioned for the onboarding of even more new clients than it attained in 2019. Currently, Banc Intranets serves customers in more than 35 states, Puerto Rico, Canada and the Caribbean.
Some of Banc Intranets' key marketing initiatives for 2020 involve the continued participation in about 20 industry-specific conferences and various core system user meetings nationwide. This spring, for example, Banc Intranets will be attending events in Kansas, Georgia, Florida, Minnesota, Louisiana, Texas, Virginia and California. The company is also working to further enhance its marketing resources and social media presence in 2020. Banc Intranets is posting regularly on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter to keep its target audience engaged with company news and other developments.
Banc Intranets' management objectives for 2019 included growing its sales, upgrading its software, increasing its operational efficiencies and meeting its overall financial goals. The accomplishment of these and other goals is an indication that the company is well prepared to sustain—and even enhance—its performance in 2020. "I really think 2020 will be our best year ever provided the economy continues to improve," Anderson said.

Powerful combination of automated threat technology and expansive mitigation capacity can block or defer large scale DDoS attacks

PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB) JANUARY 24, 2020
Linode, the world's largest independent cloud provider, today announced advanced protection across its global network of 11 data centers to mitigate the impact of pervasive and costly distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. Like it has done with other critical services, Linode is making this additional layer of protection free for every one of its customers, no matter how big or small.
Increasing levels of DDoS attacks at every layer of the Internet have made DDoS protection a mandatory first line of defense for businesses running workloads in the cloud. These attacks have caused hundreds of billions of dollars in economic loss globally and remain a significant challenge for many cloud providers and their customers. Linode has been responding to these ongoing threats by investing heavily in building out advanced DDoS mitigation capabilities that today represent one of the most advanced network protection measures in the industry.
"DDoS attacks are a clear and present danger for anyone doing business in the cloud today," said Dan Spataro, Director of Infrastructure at Linode. "We've invested heavily in the capacity to mitigate these attacks across our global network and built the predictive technologies necessary to automatically detect and neutralize threats at our network edge before they can impact service. Coupled with our soon to be released Cloud Firewall solution, we're giving customers the enhancements they need to scale with confidence."
Volumetric attacks are the most common type of DDoS attack, the virtual equivalent to intentionally causing a traffic-jam by flooding a highway with more cars than it can handle. Linode's advanced DDoS protection has the capacity to withstand attacks larger than any seen in the industry to date, with no increased latency and no routing of a customer's traffic to a third party, by applying real-time behavioral algorithms that detect and block volumetric traffic before it reaches a customer's infrastructure. When a threat is detected, Linode blocks the attack inline, then distributes the increased traffic across its global fiber backbone. The new capability was designed to further minimize any impact to a customer's services by addressing a broad range of DDoS attack methods, including UDP, SYN, HTTP floods, and more.
The addition of advanced DDoS mitigation sets Linode apart from other alternative cloud providers that charge for or do not offer this level of protection.
"Linode has been known for the quality and performance of the network it has built over the past 16 years," said Liam Eagle, research vice president at 451 Research. "Continuing to add capabilities like DDoS protection is how smaller, customer focused cloud providers are giving developers and the companies they work for viable alternatives to the large public cloud providers."
For more information on Linode and its new advanced DDoS protection, visit http://www.linode.com/ddos
About Linode
Linode accelerates innovation by making cloud computing simple, accessible, and affordable to all. Founded in 2003, Linode helped pioneer the cloud computing industry and is today the largest independent open cloud provider in the world. Headquartered in Philadelphia's Old City, the company empowers more than a million developers, startups, and businesses across its global network of 11 data centers.

DMCC – the world's flagship free zone and Government of Dubai Authority on commodities trade and enterprise – announced its strategic partnership with CV VC and CV Labs, to launch Crypto Valley – the world's largest ecosystem for cryptographic, blockchain and distributed ledger technologies – in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES (PRWEB) JANUARY 24, 2020
DMCC – the world's flagship free zone and Government of Dubai Authority on commodities trade and enterprise – announced its strategic partnership with CV VC and CV Labs, to launch Crypto Valley – the world's largest ecosystem for cryptographic, blockchain and distributed ledger technologies – in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Designed to foster growth, collaboration and integrity across the global blockchain economy, the 'DMCC Crypto Valley' will offer a variety of services including incubation for early-stage startups, co-working facilities, innovation services for corporate clients, blockchain and entrepreneurship training, education, events, mentoring and funding.
Signed on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, the agreement sees DMCC work alongside both CV VC, and its subsidiary CV Labs, to develop an ecosystem in Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT), DMCC's business district, where over 17,000 companies are currently registered.
"DMCC is delighted to sign this agreement with CV VC, and launch the Crypto Valley in Dubai, at the very heart of Dubai's leading business district," said Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, DMCC.
"Sat at the crossroads of the world, DMCC is a dynamic business hub that drives global trade through Dubai. The launch of the Crypto Valley in DMCC will enhance the city's dynamic business environment, and support the wider strategy of the UAE Government to attract the innovators, entrepreneurs and pioneers that will shape the future economy," he added.
The agreement commits both parties to collaborate and develop a comprehensive DMCC Blockchain Strategy that is aligned with the Emirates Blockchain Strategy 2021, and supports the Dubai Blockchain Strategy launched by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council.
"We are thrilled to move into the MENA region with DMCC as a strong local partner. In our opinion the competence from Crypto Valley based companies will support the ambitious goals and strategy to use blockchain in Dubai and beyond. On the other side, the capital from the MENA region could help to build even more successful projects and startups and foster the settlement of new blockchain focused companies in the UAE," said Ralf Glabischnig, Founder of CV VC and CV Labs.
"We are looking forward to bringing our strong partner from Crypto Valley to Dubai, like CoreLedger, inacta, Lykke, and Tezos which are already active in the MENA region," he added.
Research from DMCC's Future of Trade report found that blockchain could help reduce up to 20 per cent of the actual physical paper costs associated with global trade, currently estimated at AED 6.6 trillion (USD 1.8 trillion). DMCC is a member of the Global Blockchain Council, established in October 2019 to explore, discuss current and future applications, and organise transactions through the blockchain platform.
For further information on the project, and joining DMCC, please contact James Bernard, Head of Corporate Sales, DMCC, and founding member of the Blockchain Innovation Group and Global Blockchain Council in Dubai: James.Bernard@dmcc.ae.

The strategic acquisition of Bimotics, a provider of big data tools on the Google Cloud Platform, and its intellectual property gives ViewN a huge product development boost and accelerates bringing a powerful AI-driven Customer Data Platform to market.

AVENTURA, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 27, 2020
In October 2019, ViewN, provider of a SaaS-based AI-driven customer data platform (CDP), purchased Bimotics, creator of marvin, a big data tool for developers on the Google Cloud Platform. marvin stands for Massive Analytics Repository on a Very Intelligent Network, and was an easy way to bring together information from multiple data sources for analysis. Previous clients of marvin appreciated the self-service nature of data management as well as the breadth of big data problems it fixed. This acquisition is pivotal to accelerating ViewN's product development of a robust, powerful, and user-friendly AI-engine and CDP.
"We were interested in marvin because it was a proven big data and data warehouse solution, adopted by small businesses to test product-market fit, measure key performance indicators, and accelerate their niche advantages," states Areeya Lila, CEO of ViewN. Further, Ms. Lila states, "marvin helps put ViewN in the position of offering an affordable, but robust data platform, enhanced by AI, to customers with limited marketing resources, budgets and expertise." Most mid-sized enterprises do not have the technical resources to the solution and maintain the infrastructure needed to manage enterprise-grade data from customers because they use so many different applications and need real data expertise to tie it together and make use of it.
ViewN Chief Product Officer, Roberto Landrau says, "From an intellectual property perspective, marvin's architecture and capabilities are robust. Owning the product gives us a roadmap and a scaled model from which to build ViewN. Having a reference for our developers has been immensely helpful in allowing us to move faster and delivering ahead of schedule."
The acquisition of Bimotics and the integration of marvin also means that ViewN secured the full IP transfer. ViewN is now in a position to offer the market an AI-driven customer data platform for marketing professionals in early 2020. With a complete solution, ViewN may also explore bigger opportunities and more target markets like advanced data enrichment and customer journey/buyer engagement analytics.

Dr. Jennifer Winward named a top business leader by San Diego Business Journal

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) JANUARY 27, 2020
Dr. Jennifer Winward, founder and CEO of Winward Academy, was named to the San Diego Business Journal's list of "Top 40 Business Leaders Under 40" for 2019. According to the San Diego Business Journal, the distinction is intended to "introduce the young leaders, change makers and innovators who are making waves, creating impact and leaving a positive mark on the San Diego community." Winward's impact is in education.
Winward recognizes that the opportunity gap in our country only gets wider when students from underserved communities lack access to the same resources as their peers from higher earning households. Committed to education equity, she developed an online learning platform, Winward Academy, which is the first to honor over 40 years of research about learning theory, tying in her Ph.D. work studying adolescent brain development and learning.
To ensure all students have access to quality teaching, Winward actively nurtures partnerships between Winward Academy and charities, foundations, and organizations that support teens living in poverty or foster care; overcoming abuse, trauma, and homelessness; moving frequently with parents in the military; battling cancer or acute illnesses; and struggling with learning disabilities.
In San Diego, Winward Academy supports the YMCA by providing college readiness workshops, in-class and after-school academic support, and weekend review sessions for first generation, low-income college bound high school students in East County and the South Bay. Winward trained staff at Barrio Logan College Institute to become college and career coaches who mentor students in Barrio Logan and San Ysidro through a partnership with South Bay Community Services. Winward also supports teens being treated for cancer at Rady Children's Hospital; teens in City Heights attending Reality Changers and Price Philanthropies for after school support; and squash players from Preuss School who attend Access Youth Academy for after school help.
Winward recognizes that academic success begins with safety and security. She secured a partnership with Dr. Reid Meloy - internationally recognized forensic psychologist, consultant, and author – whose School Safety, Threat Assessment, and Threat Management curriculum is now offered through Winward Academy to districts, school resource officers, counselors, psychologists, and teachers.
"I am honored for this recognition by the San Diego Business Journal," shared Winward. "I hope to continue to expand our partnerships to maximize our impact in San Diego and support students to gain the content knowledge, skills, and confidence they need for college and beyond."
About Winward Academy
Test success, college success, and life success – they all begin at Winward Academy, a research-based, student-centered learning platform for the ACT, SAT, math class, and college applications. Winward Academy applies a scientific approach to customize learning for each student, enabling growth for students of all levels and learning styles.

The partner agreement gives Infotel Corp U.S. distribution rights for Eccox's Application Environment Management for Parallel Testing product, a complementary product to Infotel's application code quality products DB/IQ and iDBA.

TAMPA, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 27, 2020
Infotel, a leading global software vendor of data performance and optimization solutions for the Fortune 500 enterprises, today announced a distribution partnership agreement with Brazil-based, mainframe solutions and services provider, Eccox. Under the partnership, Infotel will leverage Eccox's Application Parallel Testing product to provide better application testing processes, lower system maintenance times, and improved application performance. The Eccox Application Parallel Testing solution automates test infrastructure preparation processes to enable or reprocess specific tests, and also enable the creation and execution of test configurations using DB2, VSAM, and Sequential databases, both in Batch and Online CICS or IMS/DC.
"Application testing environments for z/OS can be expensive to create," said Carlos Almeida, Infotel Corp's business analyst. "It takes multiple human and system resources to create just one testing environment in z/OS. Eccox APT (application parallel testing) eliminates this resource burden."
"We have made great progress getting our products deployed in large enterprises in Brazil and have been looking for a partner in North America," said Mauricio da Costa e Silva, CEO of Eccox. "Infotel Corp has a good presence in the U.S. and their vision for delivering products that support better software development practices is very much in line with ours. We see great synergy with Eccox APT and Infotel's code quality assurance products in the DB/IQ suite."
About DB/IQ Product
DB/IQ is a SQL-for-Db2 code quality assurance software solution that automatically checks code and optimizes it before the Db2 app reaches the production stage. For apps already in production, the solution can check and optimize the code without having to take the application out of production. DB/IQ is designed with the DBA and developers in mind to save costs and reduce workload, ensuring they have the time to focus on more strategic tasks that impact the numbers of the business.
About Application Parallel Testing Product
Application Parallel Testing (APT) for IBM z/OS centralizes mainframe app development testing in a single mainframe (IBM z/OS) disk partition (LPAR). Based on Agile Development methods, APT dramatically accelerates application production on z/OS by providing multiple instances of databases and application code on a single LPAR so multiple developers can work concurrently on the same iteration of an app or apps in development. The result is the elimination of testing code builds in series and in multiple LPARs – the traditional Waterfall development method – where errors in code could only be found after a previous software build was completed and tested. APT allows for parallel development testing of application code by hundreds of developers concurrently across the entire enterprise, a cornerstone of Agile and DevOps application development methods. The result is faster application development and fewer bugs when an application is put into production. Subsequently, APT dramatically reduces the time need for app testing on z/OS, typically the most expensive phase of application development.
About Eccox
With over 24 years of experience in the global software market, Eccox is a pioneer in developing solutions focused on high availability of services and mission critical environments. With our solutions you can reduce MIPS/MSU consumption and increase the availability of IT resources to improve business application performance by carefully analyzing system usage data. Eccox solutions help longevity of applications, speed of delivery and use less resources. In line with global trends, Eccox effectively seeks continuous process improvement with quality and operational efficiency for its customers.

Hands-on workshops guide leaders to use the neuroscience of leadership to become great transformation leaders – Available in 1, 2 or 4 hour formats.

PORTLAND, ORE. (PRWEB) JANUARY 27, 2020
Cerebyte, the leader in "instant mentoring" solutions using the latest advances in neuroscience and cloud and mobile computing, today announced the availability of neuroscience of transformational leadership workshops. These highly interactive, hands-on workshops guide leaders from across an organization to use the latest neuroscience of leadership and change research to become great transformational leaders. The workshops are available in one, two or four hour formats, online or onsite.
"Regardless of industry, organizations of all sizes face a constant stream of disruptive forces, and in most cases the leadership team is ill-equipped to guide their company past obstacles like technology transitions or shifting customer expectations," said Dr. William Seidman, Cerebyte CEO and president. "But the good news is that transformation leadership can be learned. Attendees in our workshops quickly become deeply motivated, develop new attitudes and skills based on neuroscience research, and learn how to apply them to real-world situations."
According to research by McKinsey & Company, the success rate for business transformation efforts is a scant 30% overall. Digital transformations fare even worse with only 16% leading to improved performance. The key to successful transformations, McKinsey found, included having the right leaders in place and building capabilities for the workforce of the future.
"Clearly, businesses face a massive struggle to find leaders who can guide an organization through a difficult transformation. But given the time-pressures of the modern world, few organizations are willing to make the necessary investments," Seidman noted. "We've designed our workshops to fit within the time constraints of today's world and still deliver lasting change."
In just the first 90 seconds of a workshop, participants experience positive neural responses to change as a tangible demonstration of both the science and the ability to be great transformational leaders. Throughout the workshops, participants experience the best of the neuroscience of transformational leadership, gain an understanding of the underlying science and how to apply their learnings to time pressured real-world situations.
To learn more or schedule a workshop for your next leadership off-site or planning meeting, please go to: https://cerebyte.com/sofia/transformational-workshops/ or contact Cerebyte at 1-888-355-0213.
About Cerebyte
Founded in 1997 by Dr. William Seidman, Cerebyte uses the latest research neuroscience and emerging cloud and mobile technologies to help businesses develop, implement and achieve sustained performance improvement in time and budget constrained environments. Cerebyte mentoring solutions have been used by companies such as Intel, Tektronix, Hewlett-Packard and hundreds more.

By leveraging Artificial Intelligence and cutting-edge satellite technology, AiDash is all set to transform Vegetation Management for power utilities by helping them reduce cost and improve reliability.

SAN ANTONIO (PRWEB) JANUARY 27, 2020
San Francisco Bay Area-based technology company AiDash is set to launch its new product for the power utility industry — the AiDash Intelligent Vegetation Management System (IVMS), that combines high-resolution multispectral satellite data and AI technology to provide real-time actionable insights and automates Vegetation Management operations for power utilities. This is the first in AiDash's line of disruptive products that aim to transform asset management and operations for core industries with geographically distributed assets.
"There is an urgent need for utility companies to find the right AI-based solution for Utility Vegetation Management. Our product has helped power utilities reduce 20% in their vegetation management costs while improving reliability by 15%" said Abhishek Vinod Singh, CEO of AiDash.
"We have a deep understanding of the utility industry and offer a SaaS product that addresses an age-old industry pain point. IVMS helps curb down instances of avoidable loss, whether it's wildfires or power outages caused by inefficient vegetation management", Abhishek added.
IVMS is built on the AiDash Platform that utilizes geospatial information from high-resolution multispectral satellite imagery combined with ground data to effectively plan trim cycle and hazard tree management. The app detects clearance, dimensions, species and geo-location of vegetation growing alongside the Right of Way of T&D networks. The system AI then calculates the impact of not clearing the vegetation hazard and probability score of potential disruption, thus allowing ground operators to work in a prioritized and intelligent manner.
The app also provides a platform for contractor bidding, where vendors associated with the utility company can bid for tasks based on line miles. Task completion is reported through the app, which uses satellite imagery to verify and audit completion. The system ensures seamless interaction between the organization, its vendors and the AI-based platform to ensure efficient vegetation management operations.
AiDash is launching IVMS at DistribuTech 2020, a leading utility industry transmission and distribution conference and exhibition. The event will take place at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, TX, from January 28 to January 30, 2020. Attendees can meet the AiDash team at Booth #1257 for a live demo.
They can also attend a session titled "Can AI cut costs and reduce the risks of wildfires and power outages?" at 2 PM on January 28 at Knowledge Hub, Innovative & Emerging Technologies room #1567. This session will be jointly addressed by Rahul Saxena, CTO, AiDash and Gary Huntley, Director, Field Services, Entergy Services Inc.
About AiDash
AiDash is an AI-First vertical SaaS company enabling intelligent asset management and operations in core industries with distributed assets. AiDash uses high-resolution, multispectral imagery and SAR data from the world's leading satellite constellations that are fed into its proprietary AI models to make timely predictions for asset management and operations activities.

New HiveMQ Cloud provides a cloud-native IoT messaging solution that simplifies bi-directional, device-to-cloud communication.

LANDSHUT, GERMANY (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Today, HiveMQ, developers of the popular enterprise MQTT platform, announced the much anticipated launch of their new HiveMQ Cloud service. HiveMQ Cloud is a major release that significantly simplifies the deployment and management of MQTT platforms. The new cloud-native service offers a fully-managed MQTT platform that can smoothly scale to meet the demands of large IoT applications and provides the reliability business-critical systems require.
HiveMQ Cloud is a cloud-native IoT messaging service that enables bi-directional communication between IoT cloud applications and IoT devices. Based on the industry standard MQTT protocol, HiveMQ allows IoT devices to stream telemetry data to the cloud and IoT cloud applications to send notifications to IoT devices.
The majority of developers use MQTT to establish connectivity and messaging between their IoT devices and IoT cloud applications. However, companies require considerable expertise and resources to deploy and manage an MQTT broker that is scalable, reliable, and secure.
HiveMQ Cloud shields companies from the complexity of deploying and managing MQTT brokers. HiveMQ Cloud includes automatic scaling that can accommodate spikes in device activity. The advanced clustering architecture ensures a high degree of availability to guarantee that messages are not lost and user experiences are not interrupted due to intermittent network connectivity. The fully managed platform is immediately deployed as three different cluster nodes in three different data centers. Enterprise grade security is set by default to require communication through TLS as well as device authentication and authorization. HiveMQ Cloud is designed to run production IoT applications with no installation, setup, or configuration.
"Our mission at HiveMQ is to connect billions of IoT devices through MQTT and our HiveMQ technology," explains Dominik Obermaier, CTO and co-founder of HiveMQ. "To accomplish this goal, we needed to make it easy and simple for any company to deploy a scalable, reliable, and secure MQTT-based IoT application on any cloud with a single click. HiveMQ Cloud is the service that will finally solve the challenges of building and deploying IoT applications at IoT-scale."
"As enterprises furiously adopt cloud as part of their overall architecture, one of the choices they are forced to make will be whether to rely on services native to a single cloud vendor," said Stephen O'Grady, Principal Analyst with RedMonk. "While these can seem more convenient in the short term, they have the unfortunate side effect of locking buyers to a single platform. This is why customers are increasingly placing a high value on neutral, standards based software layers that allow for seamless operation across different cloud providers. This is, in essence, what HiveMQ Cloud is built for."
HiveMQ Cloud features a transparent pricing structure that makes it easy for customers to budget their usage costs. Many IoT cloud platforms have complicated, consumption-based pricing structures that make it impossible to budget the cost of an IoT cloud service. HiveMQ Cloud will be available at an hourly price of US$7.50/hour.
HiveMQ Cloud is available today on AWS (Frankfurt Region). Support for MS Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and other AWS regions will be available soon.
About HiveMQ
HiveMQ helps companies connect devices to the Internet. We make it possible to move data from device to cloud in a secure, reliable, and scalable manner. Over 130 customers, including many Fortune 500 companies, rely on our product in production for mission-critical use cases like connected cars, logistics, Industry 4.0, and connected IoT products.

NEW Data Privacy Dictionary Helps Data Privacy Teams Improve Communications and Privacy Programs, While Adhering to Shifting Regulations

SEATTLE (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Today, on National Data Privacy Day, Integris Software introduces its Data Privacy Dictionary, a new tool to help data privacy, data governance and data protection professionals have a common lexicon to improve their communication and privacy management programs.
Organizations face a variety of new challenges with shifting regulations like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as one example. With the expanding definition of personal information (PI) and the increase of data combinations that can become toxic in a data breach, businesses need a tool to understand the terminology of privacy regulations and help them find more information on these laws. The Integris Data Privacy Dictionary was built as a resource for these challenges and to create a better understanding of global data privacy regulations and terms.
"The global data privacy landscape has become increasingly complex and requires a new resource to aid understanding for data practitioners and consumers alike," said Kristina Bergman, CEO and founder of Integris Software. "By releasing the Integris Data Privacy Dictionary, we will help businesses better understand data privacy terms and regulations to improve operations and compliance. The tool will also help consumers learn about their data rights."
About the Integris Software Data Privacy Dictionary
The Integris Data Privacy Dictionary contains composite and normalized definitions of privacy terms based on leading privacy organizations, government privacy authorities, practitioners, and thought leaders. The online dictionary will evolve as new terms and data practices develop, and it also includes an ongoing option for members of the global data privacy community to suggest new terms or offer edits to existing ones.
The Integris Data Privacy Dictionary was launched with more than 60 key industry terms. A sampling of entries covers regulations like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and key industry terms including data discovery and classification, data governance, data inventory, data privacy automation, data subject access request and more.
In addition, the dictionary helps define what is considered personal information along with other relevant terms for decoding compliance.
Expanding Definition of Personal Information
The definition of PI has expanded rapidly under new privacy regulations making it difficult for businesses to know what sensitive information they hold to remain in compliance. In addition to traditionally sensitive information, organizations must now understand how all types of household and inferred personal data can be tied to an individual. Companies are now also responsible for the volumes of sensitive information that enter their repositories from data-sharing agreements, and mergers and acquisitions, which pose a serious concern.
Toxic Combinations of Data
Organizations also need to recognize how the anonymized data in their repositories can create toxic combinations to reveal identities and create compliance risks. For example, just by combining gender, zip code, and date of birth you can identify 87 percent of the U.S. population. Even seemingly anonymous data points like cable purchase history and donations to a church or nonprofit can infer religion, political affiliation and sexual orientation.
Organizations can avoid both issues by using automated data discovery and classification tools to identify and map inferred data in real-time as it travels throughout their systems.

About Integris Software         
Integris Software, the global leader in data privacy automation, helps enterprises discover and control the use of sensitive data in a way that protects privacy and fuels innovation.
Privacy is now critical to an effective data protection strategy. By sitting upstream from security, Integris tells you what data is important and why so you can be precise in your InfoSec controls.
Integris works securely, at scale, no matter where sensitive data resides. You get a live map of your sensitive data where you can apply policies, surface issues, fulfill DSAR requests, and automate remediations via your broader ticketing and InfoSec ecosystem.
Regulations like GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) are triggering knee-jerk reactions as companies lock down their data for fear of misuse. With Integris, there is finally a way to use your data without fear.

CHATTANOOGA, TENN. (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Skuid, the revolutionary UX customization toolkit, today announced it has hired Rob Consoli as its chief revenue officer. Consoli will spearhead all global revenue generation activities, including field sales, inside sales and pre-sales engineering, to accelerate Skuid's next stage of growth. Additionally, Skuid welcomes software veteran Dan Dal Degan as the new executive chairman of its board of directors.
Consoli joins from OpenText, where he led the Americas for the company's Business Network division. Prior to OpenText, he was CRO of Liaison Technologies (acquired by OpenText for $310 million), and held sales leadership positions with I.D. Systems, Visiprise (acquired by SAP) and Jacada ahead of its IPO.
"With an ever-growing shortage of developers industry-wide and the need for a seamless user experience across disparate applications, Skuid is in high demand in the market today," said Consoli. "I am delighted to join such an innovative company with an outstanding culture, dedicated employees and hundreds of raving customers. I look forward to working with Skuid leadership to accelerate our growth in the months and years to come."
Dal Degan brings with him more than three decades of software sales and leadership experience, most recently, as the CEO of SpringCM, which was acquired by DocuSign in 2018 for $270 million. Dal Degan played an instrumental role in SpringCM's acquisition by helping to fast-track the company's revenue, customer and employee base. Dal Degan also serves on the Board of Directors of SalesHood, a leading mobile sales enablement platform company; the Board of Directors of Polsource, a boutique, global systems integrator; and served on the Board of Directors of Samanage, a top IT service management company (acquired by SolarWinds in 2019).
"We are thrilled to welcome Rob Consoli and Dan Dal Degan to the Skuid team," said Ken McElrath, CEO of Skuid. "Rob's extensive experience in sales leadership for high-growth companies will be a tremendous asset as we build upon skyrocketing growth in 2019, while Dan's depth of knowledge in scaling innovative software brands is an exciting addition to our board of directors."

Targeted disinformation is now mainstream: 86% of US voters believe it is being spread deliberately to disrupt elections.

MILFORD, MASS. (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), a leading IT analyst, research, and strategy firm, today released new research examining disinformation—false information spread deliberately to deceive a person or group—as the US 2020 election nears. The results indicate that political disinformation is a major problem that frustrates voters and leaves them questioning the validity of election results: 86% of registered voters surveyed believe disinformation is being spread deliberately to disrupt US elections, and 74% believe these campaigns could impact the result of a US presidential election.
Disinformation has become synonymous with democratic elections worldwide. According to ESG's research, 42% of registered voters say they are certain that they have come across political disinformation, 28% are pretty sure that they have, and 18% say it is probable that they have but they aren't certain.
"Clearly, more action is needed from public and private organizations to address this endemic threat to democratic processes and norms," said Jon Oltsik, ESG Senior Principal Analyst and Fellow. "This data should make it clear to stakeholders, including elected officials, regulators, media companies, and technology firms, that their constituents, readers, and users view disinformation to be a major concern and will expect both public and private sector institutions to take it seriously."
Topping the list of election-related concerns, nearly one-third (30%) of US registered voters claim they view disinformation as the single biggest voting issue impacting the US electoral process today—nearly twice as many as the next closest concern. Other issues include gerrymandering (17%), voter fraud (15%), inconsistent voter ID laws (9%), ballot manipulation (8%), and compromised voting machines (7%). Disinformation extends beyond politics, however, as the recent attack on the Olive Garden restaurant chain illustrates.
"This research is a leading indicator for what enterprises need to expect and prepare for," said Doug Cahill, Vice President and Group Director at ESG. "As we've already seen, there will be organized campaigns to spread disinformation, and not just around the election. ESG believes disinformation will continue escalating, with targeted reputational attacks on executives or companies. It's likely that these techniques will appear as part of blended threats in ransomware campaigns as well. As the problem intensifies, organizations should consider these expanding threat vectors as part of their incident response planning."
Additional key takeaways from the research include:

Voters appear to be energized, not discouraged. Despite voters' feelings toward disinformation, it is not causing those voters to opt out of the political process. Far from it, as 43% of registered voters say that the current disinformation climate will actually make them more likely to vote in the upcoming 2020 presidential election. Only 5% say that the state of disinformation makes them less likely to vote.

Social networks should do more to combat disinformation. When asked whether social networking companies like Facebook and Twitter should do more to validate news sources and articles to identify and/or remove disinformation, 55% said they should do "significantly more" and 24% said "somewhat more." In other words, nearly 80% want more truth-seeking oversight from social networks.

The US government should also do more to combat disinformation.

New partnership enables organizations to better engage with customers in real time by unifying inbound call analytics data, conversational insights, and rich customer profiles

SAN DIEGO AND SANTA BARBARA, CALIF. (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Tealium, the trusted leader in real-time customer data orchestration, and Invoca, the leading enterprise provider of AI-powered call tracking and conversational analytics, today announced a strategic partnership that enables organizations to combine customer data and conversational analytics insights in real time to better inform contact center interactions and optimize the caller experience.
For companies that engage with consumers through both digital channels and high-touch human interactions, the bi-directional integration between Tealium and Invoca enables more personalized experiences across online and offline touch points. This is particularly important in industries with higher value, more complex offerings that require expert advice – such as financial services, health care, telecommunications, home services, travel, and hospitality – where marketing and contact center teams have traditionally operated in siloes.
Armed with Tealium's customer data, companies using Invoca can empower sales and service agents in the contact center to have a more comprehensive view of the customer and focus on delivering the best high-touch experience. Invoca can use enriched data from the profile in Tealium to route inbound calls automatically to agents with specific skill sets – such as product expertise or language proficiency – to eliminate unnecessary call transfers, shorten call handle time, and reduce contact center costs.
Additionally, Tealium users can enrich customer profiles with Invoca's conversational analytics capabilities, which detect key buying signals and call outcomes. Once a call has ended, Invoca sends key insights from the conversation – such as product interest and stage of the customer journey - back to Tealium to enrich customer profiles. This broader profile – spanning both digital and conversational engagement – can then be used to personalize all future interactions with the customer.
"Whether online or offline, consumers are mandating seamless customer experiences and personalization," said Mike Anderson, Founder and CTO at Tealium. "They want companies to understand who they are and where they are in their customer journey. By partnering with Invoca, we can provide new insights into customer behavior – allowing companies to deliver both unparalleled customer experiences while simultaneously increasing marketing ROI."
"At Invoca, we're all about helping companies make human-to-human connections more meaningful and intelligent," said Cathie Brunnick, VP of Partnerships & Alliances at Invoca. "This partnership with Tealium does just that by unifying customer data with conversational analytics, allowing companies to take the right action in real time to optimize the customer experience and ultimately, form a more positive connection with their customers."
The integration also allows for easy tag-based deployment and cross-channel management of associated data.

erwin's Latest Research Reveals Organizations Are Still Grappling with Data Governance Challenges and Manual Approaches for Data Lineage, Data Cataloging and Data Mapping

MELVILLE, N.Y. (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Data governance drivers have shifted, according to the 2020 State of Data Governance and Automation (DGA) report released today by erwin, with 62% of survey respondents citing better decision-making as the primary reason for implementing data governance. Regulatory compliance was the main driver two years ago, just ahead of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) going into effect, so the new emphasis on decision-making may indicate organizations are using data to improve their overall performance, rather than merely ticking off a compliance checkbox.
As a follow-up to its 2018 State of Data Governance Report, erwin worked with Dataversity to look at how data governance attitudes and practices are evolving. This latest survey reveals that the most serious data governance bottlenecks are documenting complete data lineage (62%); understanding the quality of source data (58%); finding, identifying and harvesting data (55%); and curating data assets with business context (52%).
"The results of our new research show that organizations are still trying to master data governance, including adjusting their strategies to address changing priorities and overcoming challenges related to data discovery, preparation, quality and traceability," explains Mariann McDonagh, CMO for erwin. "That's not surprising considering the amount and complexity of data to manage, plus most data operations are still manual and dependent on IT resources."
In fact, this latest research reveals that data lineage would be the most valuable process to automate (65%), followed by data cataloging (48%) and data mapping (53%). But only 25%, 53% and 39% of these processes have been automated, respectively. "Without an accurate, high-quality, real-time data pipeline, it will be difficult to uncover the information necessary for making the best decisions. Automating data operations creates sustainable and repeatable practices that reduce errors, improve analytics and increase speed to insights," McDonagh notes.
Other key findings of the 2020 State of DGA report:

38% say their data governance programs are a work in progress and 31% are just getting started, as compared to 42% and 21% in the prior survey.

Analytics (51%), regulatory compliance (48%), digital transformation (37%) and data standards/uniformity (36%) are the primary drivers of data governance, behind better decision-making.

67% have deployed data preparation, data governance or data intelligence solutions.

When asked to specify which types of the above solutions have been deployed, data analytics (65%), metadata management (59%), data quality (59%), data catalog (49%) and business glossary (49%) top the list.

25% of respondents say length of project/delivery time is the most significant challenge, followed by data quality/accuracy at 24%, time to value at 16%, and reliance on developer and other technical resources at 13%.

70% of respondents spend 10 or more hours per week on time-sinking data-related activities. Searching for data is the biggest culprit.

"Businesses still depend too much on manual approaches to data management," McDonagh says. "Data availability, quality, consistency, usability and reduced latency are at the heart of successful data governance and sound decision-making. In today's competitive landscape, stakeholders must have confidence in the data underlying the analytics they rely on for both strategic and tactical decisions."
More than 260 North American business technology professionals at organization of various sizes, responded to the erwin-Dataversity survey on which the 2020 DGA report is based. Most are in data and/or information architecture roles (29%), followed closely by information/data governance professionals (25%). Business intelligence/analysts are the third most represented job function, with data scientists and executive management also participating.

Kinetech, a Lowcode / Mendix Implementation Pioneer, Announces Record Q4 Results. Revenue up 36% over Q4 as demand accelerates for Kinetech's expertise across services, architecture design, and business engineering.

SAN ANTONIO (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Kinetech, a Platform Mendix partner offering agile custom software and systems integration services, announces record breaking results with revenue up 36% over Q4 2019. Full year revenue was up 27% over 2019. Growth was primarily driven by demand for Mendix implementation services, custom software development, and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) consulting. For 2020, we expect revenue growth of 40-60% and plan to grow our United States based team of elite consultants and Mendix engineers by 20-40%.
"We had our best quarter ever with growth of 36% over Q4 2019. During the quarter, Kinetech was recognized as the #1 Cloud Computing Consultants in Texas, moving up two spots from Q3 as rated by an independent analyst firm. As management teams across industry begin to realize the impact Mendix can have on their organization, we are confident they will rely on Kinetech to deliver as we are a trusted leader in the lowcode consulting space. Kinetech empowers our clients to own their digital transformation journey from start to finish through our proven, results-driven process known by our customers as the Kinetech Digital Execution Strategy." says Michael Guido, CEO of Kinetech.

Kinetech clients continue to demonstrate high satisfaction in their partnership with us, yielding an approval rating of 96% or 4.8 / 5 stars.
Kinetech remains at the forefront of delivering technological solutions that support the blending of the physical and virtual worlds, and we see the relevance of our software products and services further maturing in this space well into the future. Technology unemployment is near record lows (1.9%) while the demand for application development continues to outpace the supply of qualified developers. Demand is expected to increase 5x in the coming years.
As a pioneer and certified expert in lowcode implementations, Kinetech bridges the talent shortage while enabling our clients to implement solutions 10x faster, effectively doing more with less. By 2020, Gartner predicts nearly 50% of all applications will be built using lowcode technologies. Kinetech is strategically positioned to not only participate in this growth but capture a significant share by empowering customers looking to adopt these technologies.
As SAP ECC reaches 'end of life' in 2025 and customers migrate to SAP 4/HANA over the next five years, Kinetech is uniquely positioned to help companies future-proof their IT infrastructure, especially since Mendix apps come automatically configured with SAP single sign-on. Custom solutions and extensions can be deployed to the SAP Cloud using existing SAP credentials easily and seamlessly. By keeping the SAP core 'vanilla' and using Mendix, the only lowcode platform that runs natively on the HANA data platform, for customization - businesses can significantly reduce maintenance costs while rapidly deploying the innovative business applications they need to compete in a digital era.

There has been a global spike in Emotet malware attacks in recent months. To help organizations and local and state governments fight back against the threat, Cybereason's Nocturnus researchers developed a free Emotet-Locker tool for Windows machines.

BOSTON (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Cybereason, creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, today announced that its Nocturnus researchers have made available a Free Emotet-Locker Tool to help organizations defend against a surge in Emotet malware attacks. The Emotet-Locker tool can be downloaded here:Cybr.ly/emotet. Emotet-Locker will prevent certain variants of Emotet on Windows machines.
According to DHS's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Emotet infections can cost local and state governments up to $1 million per incident in remediation costs. Cyberscoop reported on Monday that Berlin's highest court was recently victimized by an Emotet attack with lasting damage and a recommendation that the court rebuild its entire network.
Emotet Malware Explanation
Emotet was first identified as early as 2014 as a trojan used to steal banking credentials. Since then, its capabilities have evolved significantly into a type of modular malware. Because of its modular nature and the practicality of Emotet's distribution features, it is often used by attackers to gain a foothold in a target environment.
Emotet's main infection vector is through phishing attacks, which use email with malicious links, attached PDFs, or Macro-embedded Microsoft Word files to spread. Once deployed, Emotet can launch different malware payloads based on the target machine and its goal. In recent years, it has become one of the most commonly employed commodity malware.
Cybereason's Nocturnus researchers recently released the 'Triple Threat' research report with details of a nefarious campaign combining Emotet, TrickBot, and Ryuk that poses significant risk for victims. It shows how attackers are becoming more daring and opting to combine multiple types of malware to achieve maximum damage.
This campaign again originates from a phishing attack. The use of phishing to perpetrate a widespread attack continues to be a leading issue. This will continue to be an effective attack vector until we are able to prevent human manipulation in phishing attacks.
About Cybereason
Cybereason, creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, gives the advantage back to the defender through a completely new approach to cybersecurity. Cybereason offers endpoint prevention, detection and response and active monitoring. The solution delivers multi-layered endpoint prevention by leveraging signature and signatureless techniques to prevent known and unknown threats in conjunction with behavioral and deception techniques to prevent ransomware and fileless attacks.

While the number of breaches in 2019 increased, the number of sensitive records exposed decreased.

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Today, the Identity Theft Resource Center, a nationally recognized non-profit organization established to support victims of identity crime, released its annual End-of-Year Data Breach Report for 2019 with the support of the report's long-time sponsor CyberScout, a global leader in identity theft resolution, data defense and employee benefits services.
According to the report, the number of U.S. data breaches tracked in 2019 (1,473) increased 17 percent from the total number of breaches reported in 2018 (1,257). However, 2019 saw 164,683,455 sensitive records exposed, a 65 percent decrease from 2018 (471,225,862). The 2018 Marriott data breach exposed 383 million records alone, significantly skewing the data.
"The increase in the number of data breaches during 2019, while not surprising, is a serious issue," said Eva Velasquez, president and CEO of the Identity Theft Resource Center. "It would appear that 2018 was an anomaly in how many data breaches were reported and the number of records exposed. The 2019 reporting year sees a return to the pattern of the ever-increasing number of breaches and volume of records exposed. Because that means more consumers are becoming victims, the ITRC will continue to help them by providing guidance on the best ways to navigate the dangers of exposed personally identifiable information (PII) from a data breach and the risks of identity crime as a result."
"This year's report paints a mixed view of the landscape as we continue to work with businesses and consumers alike to thwart cyber criminals and contain their damage," said Matt Cullina, CyberScout's EVP of Strategic Partnerships and Managing Director of Global Markets; and Board Chair of the Identity Theft Resource Center. "The overall increase in breaches is certainly concerning. However, the extraordinary drop in the number of records exposed and the incredible feat of cutting the sensitive PII exposed by two thirds, indicates that we may be moving in a good direction with regards to the extent of the damage associated with breaches. Businesses and consumers need to continue to be vigilant in
protecting data and systems, ensuring they have current protections in place, because even non-sensitive data exposure can lead to more serious issues."
Another critical finding was that "hacking" was responsible for the highest percentage of data breaches (39 percent) and the highest number of non-sensitive records exposed (81 percent). "Unauthorized access" was the second most common breach method identified with nearly the same percentage as hacking at 36.5 percent. Unauthorized access continued to be a catch-all category with little transparency on the actual method of intrusion throughout 2019.
For the second straight year, the business sector had the most data breaches (644), while the medical/healthcare sector had the second most (525). The government/military sector had the fewest amount of breaches in 2019 at 83.
The ITRC has also now tracked over 10,000 publicly-notified data breaches since 2005, hitting that milestone in the spring of 2019.
Download the 2019 End-of-Year Data Breach Report.
For anyone that has been a victim of a data breach, the ITRC recommends downloading its free app to manage the various aspects of an individual's data breach case.

Sucheta Kamath, Founder and CEO of ExQ, a new cloud based personalized training curriculum designed to empower educators to teach Executive Function skills, is excited to announce the launch of the 100th episode of her Full PreFrontal podcast: 10 Takeaways from 100 Conversations on the Science of Learning.

ATLANTA (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Sucheta Kamath, Founder and CEO of ExQ, a new cloud based personalized training curriculum designed to empower educators to teach Executive Function skills, is excited to announce the launch of the 100th episode of her Full PreFrontal podcast: 10 Takeaways from 100 Conversations on the Science of Learning.
Sucheta Kamath, Founder & CEO, ExQ launched her Full PreFrontal Podcast to help demystify and explain the science of Executive Function. "As the podcast celebrates its 100th episode, we are thrilled to talk about the top ten ideas shared with us from 100 interviews with researchers, psychologists, neuroscientists, educators, authors, journalists, and thought leaders who believe that the power of the brain can be amplified with Executive Function training, as with ExQ, to help us all achieve our infinite know how and our potential as human beings," shares Sucheta Kamath, host of the series.
The ten takeaways from Full PreFrontal's 100 Conversations on the Science of Learning include:
1. Just Say No:
At the heart of human evolution is the ability to inhibit, which means saying no to the impulsive thoughts, ideas, and desires that lead to actions that only benefit us in the now.
2.    Turn Off the Auto Pilot:
Executive Function skills allow us to become intentional, reflective, and problem solvers. But in order to activate the prefrontal system that accomplishes this, we have to get off "autopilot."
3.    Try Something New:
Executive Function systems are brought online when we learn new things because novel information requires novel adaptive response.
4.    Future Self Care:
The brain is the most advanced future simulator. It allows us to envision the future and provides us with the tools to imagine the self through the continuity of time. We must extend compassion towards that "future self" who is hopelessly dependent on the mercy of the current self.
5.    EF Training Leads to Success:
Student success depends largely on mastery of Executive Function because academic skills including reading comprehension, completing projects, conducting research, and writing papers all require highly engaged Executive Function skills.
6.    Stop Self-blindness:
There are innumerable barriers in attaining self-actualization; primarily, our self-blindness. We are often erroneously guided by our false confidence in our ability to be rational, fair, and consistent.
7.    Embrace Emotional Vulnerability:
Executive Function skills are extremely critical for transitions as they help us with the adaptive adjustment needed as we exit one area of our life and enter another. But we are not always fully prepared to handle such adjustments with resilience and grace.
8.    Cerebral Matters:
Executive Function skills are directly related to the maturation of the brain—delayed development, brain injury, and aging all impact the growth of these skills, especially decision making, problem solving, and adaptive and emotional adjustment.
9.    Stress Out:
While stress often feels undesirable, it turns on adaptive flexibility and engages Executive Function. Stress in small to moderate doses is an essential ingredient to sharpening our self-regulation and critical self-directed problem solving.
10. Infinite Know How:
The most hopeful message from experts is that Executive Function can be cultivated, nurtured, and strengthened through practice and coaching. These skills can be put to the test with carefully crafted activities by parents and educators alike.

MEDIA, PA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
CSS Tec, the IT Staffing business unit of Contemporary Staffing, delivers a team of Technical Analysts in support of urgent desktop remediation and support initiative at a key financial services client.
The client, a New Jersey based financial services company, provides leading financial solutions and services to hundreds of thousands of clients nationwide.
In December 2019, CSS Tec won and prioritized a project for an urgent, company-critical initiative for our client's Technology Infrastructure & Operations team. CSS Tec deployed a team of ten Technical Analysts to provide local desktop configuration and technical support for multiple critical changes that were to be deployed to over 3,000 workstations.

Simplifying cybersecurity, Defendify offers SMBs comprehensive protection that's affordable, flexible, and scalable.

PORTLAND, MAINE (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
Defendify, an all-in-one SaaS cybersecurity platform developer, announced today that is has closed its $2 million seed round. Existing investor 3dot6 Ventures doubled down and led the round with participation from York IE, Maine Technology Institute (MTI), Maine Venture Fund (MVF), FreshTracks Capital, and Wasabi Ventures.
In the last 18 months, Defendify has raised a total of $3.6 million, added thousands of users and doubled its employee count. As the company continues to experience rapid growth, the $2 million round will be used to expand its core product, invest in sales and marketing, and make strategic hires.
"The Defendify team has demonstrated strong leadership, capital efficiency, and impressive progress to-date," said Norman Menz, Managing Director at 3dot6 Ventures. "3dot6 is thrilled to continue to have the company in our portfolio as we work together to transform cybersecurity for small businesses."
The Defendify platform offers small businesses and channel partners a cybersecurity solution that's simple, affordable, flexible, scalable and aligns with regulatory needs. Unlike any other product in the market, Defendify features a single pane of glass and multiple layers of ongoing protection to continuously improve security posture. As small businesses grow and threats continue to evolve, Defendify scales easily.
"Considering more than half of small businesses suffered a data breach in the last year, cybersecurity is no longer a nice-to-have, but a must-have for the millions of small businesses in the U.S.," said Kyle York, CEO & Managing Partner at York IE. "Defendify provides a holistic solution at a reasonable price point for SMBs—making cybersecurity accessible to all small businesses and not just large-scale enterprises."
According to Hiscox Cyber Readiness Report 2019, on average, cyberattacks cost companies $200,000. In addition to these staggering costs, SMBs are at risk for losing customers or being issued fines for not being compliant with third-party cybersecurity risk assessments. The high costs associated with these matters can be devastating to a small business.
"Defendify's goal is to simplify cybersecurity for busy SMBs. They can't afford to not have the right strategies and risk data breaches or customer losses over third-party risk assessments," said Rob Simopoulos, Co-Founder of Defendify. "Defendify provides peace of mind, ensuring SMBs have an appropriate cybersecurity program in place to help protect against cyberattacks and meet the requirements of third-party risk assessments. This new round of capital will enable us to scale Defendify even faster to help the millions of SMBs who need to improve their cybersecurity posture and want an easy and flexible solution that will grow with their business."

Enterprises which fail to unleash their data into actionable insights will fall behind their more agile peers.

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) JANUARY 28, 2020
10Pearls, an end-to-end digital technology services company based in Washington D.C., has been recognized in Forrester's January 2020 report: Now Tech: Insights Service Providers, Q1 2020. In the report, Forrester categorized 38 Insights Service Providers that help corporate leaders accelerate the process of obtaining actionable data insights and intelligence.
The report recognizes the gap between business leaders' desire to use data insights to know their customers better, and their ability to leverage these insights. 85% of global purchase influencers will be leveraging data insights for business decisions--but 90% of them expect challenges harnessing insights and intelligence from the data they collect. According to the report, "less than half of the decisions their firms make are made using quantitative information as opposed to 'gut feeling,' experience, or opinion."
Forrester's report highlights the fact that leaders engage insights service providers to create positive business outcomes, drive effective organizational change, and accelerate turning data into actionable insights for competitive advantage. It also points out that it is critical to choose a vendor that keeps on the cutting edge of new techniques and tools – This is a core focus of 10Pearls' research and development arm, 10Pearls Labs.
"Data is the new oil. Businesses that don't mine and monetize that oil will be outcompeted into extinction. Leaders understand the importance of time-to-market when it comes to delivering insights and intelligence," said Imran Aftab, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at 10Pearls. "At 10Pearls, we focus on helping businesses harness data for actionable insights and intelligence through a rapid, agile process. Technologies such as business intelligence, analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence are valuable--but are only a means to an end. The true value is realized when our clients can use data in a timely manner to quickly identify trends and better inform and engage with their customers to drive revenue and accelerate their business.
In addition to 10Pearls, Forrester's report also included Accenture, McKinsey & Company, EPAM, and Cognizant.
Known for placing emphasis on human-centric design and development, 10Pearls concentrates on creating intelligent digital experiences – an approach that combines customer experience, design, agile development and emerging technologies to provide engaging, sophisticated customer experiences.

Third Annual Study on the State of Endpoint Security Risk Shows 80% of Successful Breaches Are From Zero-Day Exploits

BE'ER SHEVA, ISRAEL AND BOSTON (PRWEB) JANUARY 29, 2020
A new study released today by Ponemon Institute finds that organizations are not making progress in reducing their endpoint security risk, especially against new and unknown threats. The Third Annual Ponemon Institute Study on the State of Endpoint Security Risk, sponsored by Morphisec, found that 68% IT security professionals say their company experienced one or more endpoint attacks that compromised data assets or IT infrastructure in 2019, an increase from 54% of respondents in 2017.
Of those incidents that were successful, 80% were new or unknown, zero-day attacks. These attacks either involved the exploitation of undisclosed vulnerabilities or the use of new malware variants that signature-based, detection solutions do not recognize. Zero-day attacks continue to increase in frequency and are expected to more than double in the coming year. These attacks are also inflicting more bottom-line business damage. The study found that the average cost per endpoint breach increased to $9M in 2019, up more than $2M since 2018.
"Corporate endpoint breaches are skyrocketing and the economic impact of each attack is also growing due to sophisticated actors bypassing enterprise antivirus solutions," said Larry Ponemon, Chairman and Founder of Ponemon Institute. "Over half of cybersecurity professionals say their organizations are ineffective at thwarting major threats today because their endpoint security solutions are not effective at detecting advanced attacks."
The third annual study surveyed 671 IT security professionals responsible for managing and reducing their organization's endpoint security risk. In addition to expressing concern over zero-day threats, respondents noted increasing vulnerability during patch gaps. In fact, 40% of companies say it's taking longer to patch, with an average patch gap of 97 days due to the number of patches and their complexity. Patch exploits will continue to be a hot-button issue in 2020 as the last remaining organizations upgrade to Windows 10 on the heels of Windows 7 end of life, and patch frequency increases.
However, the shift to Windows 10 is also ushering in new enterprise security strategies that can be effective in thwarting more advanced threats. With Windows Defender Antivirus (AV) built into the Windows 10 operating system, 80% of organizations report using or planning to use Devender AV for savings over their legacy antivirus solution. Cost savings are being reallocated towards an added layer of advanced threat protection in endpoint stacks and an increase in IT resources. Over half (51%) of cybersecurity professionals say they've added an extra layer of security to their antivirus solutions. Furthermore, since 2017 the number of IT departments reporting they have ample resources to minimize endpoint threats has increased from 36% to 44%.
"Combining the embedded antivirus features of Defender AV with an advanced threat protection layer from Morphisec has proven to be a powerful joint solution for improving security and simplifying IT operations," said Andrew Homer, VP of Security Strategy at Morphisec. "Morphisec's moving target defense morphs critical IT assets to make them inaccessible to unknown attacks and virtually patches to thwart zero-day threats, all while avoiding the complexity and false-positive fatigue that comes with more costly EDR solutions."
The study found that half of the companies who have adopted EDR cite costly customization (55%) and false-positive alerts (60%) as significant challenges. In addition, of IT departments that haven't adopted EDR yet, 65% say lack of confidence in the ability to prevent zero-day threats and 61% note security staffing limitations as the top reasons to avoid adoption.

Company accelerates momentum after impressive year of customer adoption, expansion, and industry recognition

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 29, 2020
Axonius, the cybersecurity asset management company, cited massive global demand as the central driver for its record growth in 2019. The company saw a 910% increase in revenue growth amid expansion and adoption at organizations at both mid-market and enterprises worldwide. Aiding the company's growth was a continued commitment to product innovation, strategic hires, and expanded investment.
Axonius reported new customer wins from leading global organizations in North America, Europe, and Latin America across a broad range of industries. From iconic enterprises like the New York Times, Schneider Electric, Thermo Fisher Scientific, First Data, and Anheuser-Busch InBev, to growing innovators like AppsFlyer, Twilio, Coupa, and Natera, customers of all sizes trust Axonius to see and secure their assets.
Since the launch of the Axonius Cybersecurity Asset Management Platform in 2018, Axonius has demonstrated a commitment to helping organizations get a comprehensive asset inventory, identify security solution coverage gaps, and automatically validate and enforce security policies. Now covering more than 10 million devices, the Axonius platform added 95 new adapters across 18 product releases in 2019 alone.
"In cybersecurity, it's rare to actually solve a problem," said Dean Sysman, CEO and Co-Founder of Axonius. "But asset management is a problem whose time has come, and we've been fortunate to work with some of the most impressive cybersecurity teams in the world to help them put an end to the manual work around assets so they can focus on high value security initiatives. We've built a formidable team here at Axonius, and we're well-positioned to continue to provide extraordinary value to our customers as we scale globally."
"I've rolled out countless security solutions in my career," said Guy Flechter, CISO of AppsFlyer. "In many cases, you run into bugs, dependencies, and unforeseen issues that take months to get fixed, and IT teams struggle to find the exact locations of the gaps. The Axonius solution was dead simple to deploy, and I can't say enough about the team and how quickly they responded to new feature requests or improvements."
Additional company milestones in 2019 included:

Expanded Investment – In February, Axonius raised a $13 million Series A funding round led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from YL Ventures, Vertex, WTI, and Emerge, followed by a $20 million Series B funding round led by OpenView just 6 months later in August.

Industry Recognition – Throughout 2019, Axonius was recognized as both an industry leader and a company with a promising future. In March, Axonius was named "Most Innovative Startup" at the RSA Conference Innovation Sandbox and SC Magazine's Rookie Security Company of the Year. In the second half of the year, Axonius was named one of the 20 Rising Stars as part of the Forbes Cloud 100 and was recognized in the 2019 CNBC Upstart 100 List. The company's leadership team earned several accolades, and just this week, Chief Architect and Co-Founder Avidor Bartov was recognized in the Forbes 30 under 30 Israel 2020 list. CEO Dean Sysman made the list in 2017.

Strategic Hires – Axonius appointed noted cybersecurity expert Lenny Zeltser to Chief Information Security Officer after serving as Vice President of Product, and the team grew to more than 70 employees, expanding its new headquarters to 330 Madison Avenue in New York City.

Giving Back – Beyond its ongoing commitment to growth and innovation, Axonius has instilled the principle of giving back. Late in 2019, the company kicked off a partnership with the NBA superstar Steph Curry's Eat. Learn. Play. foundation, a charity with a mission to ensure every child has access to three vital ingredients to a happy, healthy, and successful childhood: nutritious food, a quality education from early-childhood through college completion, and the opportunity to play and be physically active. Any security professional who requests a demo will have two donations made on their behalf: one to the Eat.Learn.Play foundation and another to a charity of their choice.

Stay up to date with the company's latest announcements and product updates by visiting the company website, or stop by Booth 3102 during RSA Conference 2020.

Axonius is the cybersecurity asset management platform that gives organizations a comprehensive asset inventory, uncovers security solution coverage gaps, and automatically validates and enforces security policies.

Today marks the debut of CounterAct Cybersecurity Group's suite of cybersecurity solutions aimed at helping managed service providers (MSPs) better defend themselves and their customers from increasingly sophisticated and damaging information security threats.
CounterAct's proven end-to-end MSP cybersecurity process begins with a thorough assessment of the MSP's own security risk and maturity to help its arm itself with the facts before moving to the design and implementation of vendor-neutral threat detection solutions. The CounterAct suite of solutions also includes incident response and remediation services as well as training, consultation and information security program management.
In addition to the above cybersecurity services, the CounterAct MSP to s-MSP Transformation program offers MSPs the opportunity to earn CounterAct's coveted Secure MSP (s-MSP) stamp of approval. Undertaking this rigorous, third-party process demonstrates an s-MSP's commitment to protecting itself from cybersecurity risk and reduces the risk that threat actors will leverage the MSP as a pathway to customers' networks and critical data. The CounterAct s-MSP designation also thoroughly prepares MSPs to successfully develop operationalize and monetize cybersecurity solutions for their own customers either white-labeled through CounterAct or with their own brand.
"Cybersecurity used to be an after-thought for many MSPs. Owners would cross their fingers and hope their businesses would be overlooked by the cybercriminals, hacktivists and other malicious information security threat actors that lurk in the shadows waiting to strike," said George Mach, President and CEO of CounterAct and a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP). "Today this is an extremely dangerous position to take, especially with MSPs regularly targeted as easy points of entry into their customers' networks and sensitive data."
Mach said the decision to launch CounterAct grew from his own experience as the owner of Apex IT Group, an MSP that he founded in 2007, as well as his ongoing engagement with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) community, which is focused on MSPs and small- and medium-size businesses. CounterAct also has alliances with other leading cybersecurity organizations, including the Center for Internet Security (CIS).
"As the owner of a thriving and nationally recognized MSP, I understand the real-world challenges and resource limitation that my peers are up against when it comes to successfully addressing complicated and increasingly sophisticated information security threats. Unfortunately, they far too often rely on 'cybersecurity in a box' solutions. The fact is that one-off, over-the-counter cybersecurity products without a clear understanding of their MSP's risk and a strategy to address that risk makes their businesses more vulnerable to a cyber breach. With CounterAct as their ally, they don't have to go it alone. We understand MSPs, we know what it takes to secure their businesses, and we have the expertise to help them leverage cybersecurity services to grow revenues and increase their value as their customers' trusted advisor," said Mach.
CounterAct's suite of solutions and services include:

CounterAct Intelligence Gathering: Business Impact Analysis, Information Security Risk Assessment, Vulnerability Assessment, Penetration Testing, Application Security Assessment, Security Maturity Assessment, and Security Roadmap Development

CounterAct Security Ops Command: Information Security Management Program Development; Development and Deployment of Information Security Policies and Procedures; Designing and Implementing Security Controls; System Hardening and Continuous Maintenance; Security Awareness Training; Data Protection, Recovery and Continuity Solutions; Managed Threat Detection, Analysis and Response Solutions; and Incident Response and Recovery Solutions.

CounterAct Train, Advise & Manage: Dedicated Chief Information Security Officer (CISO); Governance, Risk and Compliance Advisory Services; Information Security Program Management, Quality Assurance and Continuous Improvement Services; Cybersecurity Playbook Management, including operational best practices and standard operating procedures; Cybersecurity Workforce Training; and Certifications for Cybersecurity Professionals.

CounterAct MSP to s-MSP Transformation: s-MSP Security Maturity Index Assessment, s-MSP Information Security Management Program Development, and MSP to s-MSP System – The Complete Guide to Building Your s-MSP.

CounterAct is showcased this week in Tampa, Fla., at PerchyCon 2020, a cybersecurity conference for MSPs, where Mach will be serving as a member of the "Risk Assessment and Compliance" panel on Jan. 31 at 2 p.m. To learn more about CounterAct, which also provides cybersecurity solutions for regulated and other security-conscious businesses, visit http://www.counteractcsg.com.

Competitors to Vie for Title of Champion Designer.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA (PRWEB) JANUARY 29, 2020
Lumerical Inc., a leading developer of photonic design and simulation tools, announces the Lumerical Photonic Inverse Design Competition to be contested at Photonic West Conference, February 4-6 at the Moscone Conference Center, San Francisco, California.
Throughout the exhibit, at Lumerical's booth #5356 (North Hall), designer competitors will have an opportunity to apply their best parameters to a preselected design. All photonic designers are welcome to compete. To assure consistency and fairness, the design and target Figure of Merit will not be revealed prior to the competition. In real time, each competitor's entry will be created utilizing the power of Lumerical's photonic Inverse Design simulated with the industry leading FDTD nanophotonic simulator with the high-performance computing capability of Amazon Web Services (AWS). A leader board display in the Lumerical booth will track the standings throughout the exhibition, highlighting the top designs.
The Lumerical Design Competition Champion will be crowned on Thursday, February 6 at 2:00pm at the Lumerical Booth. The Champion designer will walk away with bragging rights, a leading design, an MPW ticket to have their design fabricated, and other valuable and fun prizes to celebrate the victory. All competitors will receive the component that they created for inclusion in their production design. A selection of leading designs will be chosen for fabrication, and one competitor chose at random will bring home an Oculus VR headset.
"The addition of inverse design methods to Lumerical's products has been a game changer for our photonics design efforts – they have enabled better performance and much faster optimization of grating couplers and other complex photonic components, than with traditional sweeps and particle swarm optimizations," said Michael Moebius, Senior Member of the Technical Staff at Draper.
Coupled with Lumerical's industry proven FDTD solver, photonic inverse design enables designers to efficiently explore and optimize designs with hundreds or more design parameters. In contrast, traditional design approaches are limited to a small number of established device designs, exploring much smaller parameter spaces, typically fewer than ten parameters.
Lumerical CEO James Pond said, "The Lumerical Design Competition is set to be a major attraction at Photonics West. With photonic inverse design running on AWS, high quality designs are deliverable in a short time. The contestant with the best results will be crowned the champion, but all the contestants win by bringing home their own manufacturable results."
The Python based open source PID implementation is packaged together with Lumerical FDTD for ease of deployment.
Alternatively, the original source code is freely available on GitHub. To help new users get started with PID, examples are included in Lumerical's application gallery to speed designers' time to implementation. More information on Lumerical's Automation API, required to run PID, can be found at https://www.lumerical.com/products/aapi.

AI powered cybersecurity startup CYR3CON closed its first priced equity financing ushering in the next stage of growth for the company that enables its clients to pre-empt cyber attacks through cutting edge prediction algorithms.

TEMPE, ARIZ. (PRWEB) JANUARY 29, 2020
The artificial intelligence powered cybersecurity startup Cyber Reconnaissance, Inc. (d.b.a. CYR3CON) has today announced it has closed its initial investor of its first priced equity financing. The company's platform uses advanced artificial intelligence algorithms that take raw data from hacker communities to produce accurate predictions on cyberattacks.
In recent weeks, US government advisories directing specific preventative action highlight the need for threat prediction. While such advisories are useful, they do not scale to the tens of thousands of security vulnerabilities identified routinely in enterprise IT environments. This is where CYR3CON's capability to automatically predict threats – enabling the security staff to prioritize resources - makes an impact.
"The number one problem in security today is information overload. Our platform refocuses security teams to take action against the most likely exploitation vector," said Paulo Shakarian, CEO and Co-Founder of CYR3CON, "This funding will enable us to increase the velocity of our sales efforts in addition to enhancements of our product line – specifically as we add features concerning prediction of threats to IoT devices, cloud environments, and applications."
The financing round is led by Trumpf Venture, GmbH of Germany. As part of the financing, Dr. Dieter Kraft, Trumpf Venture Managing Director, will join the company's board of directors. "We are very excited to work with CYR3CON, especially due to our shared culture of innovation," said Dieter, "we also believe that there is a great market potential in bringing CYR3CON technology to industrial IoT. CYR3CON's expertise in AI combined with Trumpf connections and experience in connected manufacturing devices will well-position us for this opportunity."
CYR3CON completed 2019 with enterprise users in multiple Fortune 500 companies in addition to OEM license sales supporting several hundred organizations. The company seeks to establish its quantified predictions of cyber threat as an industry standard – as the artificial intelligence approach achieves a high level of accuracy and has undergone multiple evaluations through peer-reviews and government-funded agencies.
CYR3CON is also in the process of closing two other investors in this round. Contact CYR3CON for further information.
About CYR3CON
CYR3CON predicts cyber attacks using proprietary artificial intelligence technology. The company broke new ground with key technical innovations in predicting security events and the emergence of new exploits. CYR3CON's customers use the SaaS-based platform to predict attacks and justify the use of resources to avoid costly incidents like infrastructure compromises and data breaches.
About Trumpf Venture GmbH
The high-tech company TRUMPF offers production solutions in the machine tool, laser and electronics sectors. With our corporate venture capital arm TRUMPF Venture, we are both a strategic partner and a venture capital investor for startups with an industrial focus. The TRUMPF group has more than 14,000 employees in nearly all the countries of Europe, North and South America, and Asia and achieved sales of 3.6 billion euros in 2017/18.

We are very excited to work with CYR3CON, especially due to our shared culture of innovation

Winter '20 release highlights the importance of transparency when engaging customers and collecting hard-to-reach data

TORONTO (PRWEB) JANUARY 29, 2020
Vision Critical, a cloud-based CXM SaaS company that specializes in gathering and applying the hardest-to-reach customer experience data and insights, today released its Sparq Winter '20 platform update. The latest release of Sparq makes it easier for brands to have meaningful, transparent interactions with their customers.
Available to all customers today, Sparq's newest release includes integral features that give customers more control over their data. New Sensitive Data controls, the Power User Role and the Sensitive Data Purge go beyond helping companies stay compliant with regulations such as the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA). They secure access to customer data classified by a company as sensitive, while allowing companies to gather actionable insights through meaningful engagement.
With the addition of a Power User Role, brands can provide broader access to the platform while limiting access to sensitive data. The Power User Role ensures that only designated users utilize the data with easily editable permission levels. The Sensitive Data Purge feature allows Sparq administrators to set specific conditions under which a member's data are fully deleted from the community. This feature ensures brands can easily comply with a member's request to delete their data records, a condition companies must meet under CCPA.
Vision Critical believes that it's not enough to simply meet data regulations. Brands must choose to go beyond requirements to truly excel in customer trust. Each Sparq release focuses on enhancing a brand's ability and ease to provide a positive customer experience. The Power User Role and Sensitive Data Purge features provide strong data controls that are critical to the ability to deeply engage customers with trust and transparency.
"CXM is integral to business success for economic, strategic, and technological reasons," said Riaz Raihan, President of Products of Vision Critical. "The newest updates to the Sparq platform build on a brand's ability to provide a superior experience for their customers. By showing that they are committed to a transparent process to gather insights that go beyond data regulations, brands create a superior customer journey."
Among other new features, the Winter '20 release also brings two customer-led enhancements, Tableau Integration and Threaded Comment Support. Our Tableau Integration gives administrators the ability to connect both survey and profile data, allowing for more complex data visualizations. This extends data analysis beyond Sparq to give brands a better, deeper understanding of their communities. Support for Threaded Comments provides Hub users the ability to reply directly to comments and share images within a thread, establishing a more effective way to communicate with their customers.
Sparq is a customer insights platform that uncovers actionable customer experience data. Customer attributes like motivation, preference, and beliefs are translated into actionable data points that deliver value and improve customer acquisition, retention, and satisfaction. Vision Critical's unique relationship-based approach progressively profiles the customer at every interaction producing richer, more reliable customer attitude, emotion, intention and preference data to solve common business needs, such as:
● Customer-led creation of new products and revenue streams
● Collection and application of customer experience data in compliance with GDPR and other privacy regulations
● Reduced customer acquisition and retention costs
● Compressed time-to-market timelines
About Vision Critical
Vision Critical is a cloud-based CXM SaaS company that specializes in gathering and applying the hardest-to-reach customer experience data. Using proprietary technology and processes, Vision Critical is able to deeply engage any audience to increase voluntary customer data capture and apply that data to improve customer experience. With its unique, relationship-based approach, Vision Critical's Sparq platform enables companies to interact directly with consented audiences of customers.

This expansion of connections and data collection enables more processing powered by artificial intelligence to augment our daily decisions and abilities. Both consumers and merchants are capitalizing on this technology, with the strategic applications changing the way consumers and merchants transact.
Mercator Advisory Group's latest research report, IoT Payments: How the Internet of Things Is Influencing Payments, provides a foundational framework for categorizing payments by bridging payments and technology to define and analyze four basic payment modes: in-person, online, recurring, and IoT payments.
"Consumers and merchants are rapidly adopting technology and utilizing the IoT, further digitizing their relationship. Prior to Mercator Advisory Group's research on the topic, there was no concrete definition of the concept "IoT payment," and thus it was impossible to analyze this complex market segment. In constructing a payments categorization framework that bridges technology and payments, it became clear to Mercator Advisory Group that payments are becoming increasingly online and recurring and moving in the automated data-driven direction of the internet of things, comments David Nelyubin, Research Analyst, Emerging Technologies at Mercator Advisory Group and author of the report.
Highlights of the report include:

Discussion of the movement of consumers and merchants toward internet of things (IoT) connected payments

Analysis of payment modes and infrastructure, separating IoT devices from IoT payments

Analysis of a basic purchase process and presentation of a new model, the Mercator Payments Categorization Framework.

Clinical Care Options' (CCO) Innovative Technology Will Quickly Help Healthcare Providers Assess and Address Clinical Practice Challenges

RESTON, VA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 30, 2020
Clinical Care Options (CCO) announces the launch of an Interactive Decision Support Tool (IDST) mobile application (app) across medical specialties. IDSTs, in conjunction with traditional educational formats, offer a means to narrow the gap between clinical practice/guideline recommendations and individualized treatment decision-making.
IDSTs are authored by a panel of topic experts or based on consensus guidelines to address changing treatment paradigms and gaps in guideline specificity across a range of medical specialties. CCO's IDSTs are developed to include hundreds to thousands of unique case variations based on factors considered important for treatment selection. To use the IDST, healthcare providers are prompted to enter patient-specific and disease-specific information from pull-down menus and then indicate their planned clinical approach for the patient case entered into the tool. After this information is entered, a single treatment recommendation is provided from each of the 5 experts and displayed for the specific case.
"Outcomes results prove that using CCO decision support tools changes the intended treatment plan for many healthcare providers, suggesting the tools' use can help optimize care of patients," said Dan Cox, CEO, CEA Holdings. "This IDST app is the logical next step to provide an accessible, readily usable format of these critical tools to healthcare providers worldwide."

PERQ, a marketing technology company, announces that its multifamily software is now accessible by those with disabilities, including visual, motor, auditory or cognitive.

INDIANAPOLIS (PRWEB) JANUARY 30, 2020
PERQ, a marketing technology company, announces that its multifamily software is now accessible by those with disabilities. PERQ recently met all of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level A and AA through WebAIM, an independent authority in web accessibility. The certification confirms that PERQ's multifamily software can be easily reached, entered, and navigated by people with disabilities, including visual, motor, auditory or cognitive.
"About 13 percent of people in the United States live with some sort of disability. Making sure that we can provide them with the same user experience as those without is incredibly important," said Curt Knapp, PERQ Executive Vice President of Technology. "While this wasn't a small project, we felt extremely passionate about investing our resources into making this happen. It was the right thing to do."
PERQ spent more than six months working to make its software meet Level A and AA guidelines. The company needed to update code structure, redesign experiences and improve usability for a variety of devices. PERQ's largest undertaking was making sure anyone with a disability could use a keyboard to access everything on a website easily, just like they could by clicking a mouse.
"I hope we will start to see a growing trend toward website accessibility in the multifamily industry," said Knapp. "Properties have taken numerous steps to make sure they are providing an inclusive experience for all people at their physical communities. It makes sense to offer that same inclusivity on property websites and PERQ is proud to be leading the way to make this happen."

Cyber Security Cloud, Inc. (Headquarters: Tokyo, Japan, President/CEO: Hikaru Ohno) announced today that its service for automation of AWS WAF operations "WafCharm" has been updated to correspond to the latest update announced by AWS on November 25, 2019. As a result, it is possible to further strengthen the defense of web applications in the AWS environment, and advanced security measures can be provided.

TOKYO (PRWEB) JANUARY 31, 2020
About AWS WAF
AWS WAF is a Web Application Firewall provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that helps protect web applications from common web exploits that could affect application availability, compromise security, or consume excessive resources. With AWS WAF, users can control which traffic to allow or block to the web applications by specifying customizable web security rules.
On November 25, 2019, the AWS WAF was updated significantly to the new AWS WAF. *1
This introduced the WAF capacity unit (WCU), which lifted the limit of using only up to 10 rules and made it possible for more rules to be added. Also, the introduction of the "OR" operator has facilitated the creation of rules for various detection patterns and has been updated to a WAF that is more user-friendly.
About WafCharm's Support for New AWS WAF
Cyber Security Cloud's service for automation of AWS WAF operations "WafCharm" has been updated to correspond to the latest update of AWS WAF by AWS.
In addition to WafCharm, Cyber Security Cloud also provides a cloud-based WAF "Shadankun," ranking No. 1 in Japan in terms of adoption rate *2, as well as "Managed Rules for AWS WAF," which is available to subscribe on AWS Marketplace to over 1 million AWS users in over 190 countries.
With the updated AWS WAF, it is now possible to create more than just 10 rules, and with the knowledge of creating rules that optimize the protection range and consumption balance of WCU in AWS WAF, as well as the finetuning method during a false-positive that we possess, it has resulted in an improved defensive performance of WafCharm, making it possible to automatically operate optimized rules with a good balance of consumption of rules.
At the same time, it supports rate-based rules when the amount of access exceeds a certain threshold and rules that allow or block access by specifying a country, providing more flexible services.
As a result, WafCharm users will be freed from web application security measures in the AWS environment and will be able to focus on their core business.
About WafCharm
WafCharm is a service for automation of AWS WAF operations using AI & Big Data. It is equipped with an AI engine "WRAO" (Patent No. 6375047) that automatically selects the most optimal WAF rules using machine learning, based on hundreds of billions of Big Data cultivated through in-house developed cloud-based WAF "Shadankun", which has No. 1 adoption rate in Japan. *2
The cyber threat information monitoring team of security researchers "Cyhorus" responds quickly to the latest threats, and by offering 24/7 technical support *3 & individual customization by top-class security engineers with flexible services tailored to the needs of customers, WafCharm has made AWS WAF operations easier for users. It is available to over 1 million AWS users in over 190 countries.
For more information, please visit WafCharm.
About Cyber Security Cloud, Inc.
With an aim to create a secure cyberspace that people around the world can use safely, Cyber Security Cloud provides web application security services worldwide using the world's leading cyber threat intelligence and AI technology. CSC is also certified as the 7th AWS WAF Managed Rules Seller in the world by AWS (Amazon Web Service) which boasts a 47.8% global cloud market share. *4
As a leading cybersecurity company, CSC plans to continue to strive to improve and develop new technologies and aim to be a company that can deliver effective security solutions to contribute to the information revolution.

ArangoML Pipeline Cloud on ArangoDB Oasis provides a fully-hosted, fully-managed common metadata layer for Machine Learning pipelines

SAN FRANCISCO AND COLOGNE, GERMANY (PRWEB) JANUARY 30, 2020
ArangoDB, the leading open source native multi-model database, today announced the release of ArangoML Pipeline Cloud, a fully-hosted, fully-managed common metadata layer for production-grade data science and Machine Learning (ML) platforms. ArangoML Pipeline Cloud runs on ArangoDB Oasis, ArangoDB's recently released cloud service, and is the latest offering in ArangoDB's ML extension, ArangoML.
ArangoML Pipeline Cloud meets the needs of both data scientists, who are concerned with the quality of the data, feature training, and model results, as well as DevOps, who need to manage which datasets and deployments are in use, their performance, and how they are being deployed. ArangoML Pipeline Cloud centralizes the metadata produced across the ML pipeline, providing a common interface to show relationships of the data, features, and model training results, as well as the deployments, management, and serving logistics. ArangoML Pipeline solution is pipeline agnostic, allowing any combination of pipeline components to be connected. Additionally, as a cloud-based service, it can be up & running in just a few clicks.
"Common metadata is an often overlooked aspect when building production grade ML pipelines, but is equally as important as good training data," said Jörg Schad, Head of Engineering and Machine Learning at ArangoDB. "It is not only crucial for DataOps teams when looking for reproducible builds, audit trails, or compliance with privacy regulations, but extremely valuable for data scientists as well -- allowing them to easily grasp the lineage of models, what artifacts are involved, and also enabling performance comparisons across different models and approaches."
As a multi-model database, ArangoDB can easily accommodate and unite unstructured, highly-interlinked data, such as inference and model descriptions, and allow relationships between them to be stored as a graph that can be managed by the DevOps engineer and used by the data scientist at the same time.

An audio design app that comes with more than 20,000 sounds, add.app completely transforms the process of adding music and sound effects to picture, cutting down what can typically be a full day project to just a few minutes. Using patent-pending Sonic Intelligence, every sound in the add.app library is assigned identifying characteristics and carries an embedded sync point, which means that as sounds are previewed and chosen, they automatically land on the timeline in the exact right position relative to the video. The user simply imports a video file into the app and presses keys on their keyboard – H for hits, R for rises, D for drones, and so on – making it a Smart Sampler. The user can then strike the keys to position sound elements in real-time while watching the video playback – in effect, using the QWERTY keyboard to play add.app like an instrument. For users who would rather select audio manually, add.app can search, audition and place sounds right from the timeline, completely eliminating the need to parse through libraries, import sounds and then find where they sync.
Once a composition is set, add.app understands where sound connects to video and, by adjusting replacement criteria such as intensity, complexity, genre or feel, Audio Design Desk can use its Sonic Intelligence to instantly turn a single composition into infinite alternates without losing sync. Perhaps the most mind-blowing of all, add.app uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and has built the foundation for Machine Learning (ML) to understand which sounds a user likes, and which sounds they reject so, over time, add.app will learn and adjust to its user's taste.
Audio Design Desk was first conceived by Gabriel Cowan, a multi-platinum recording artist and award-winning filmmaker, to address the challenges he faced while finding and placing sound effects, sound design and music for his films. Frustrated with the time-consuming and creatively limiting process, he set out to modernize this workflow. Cowan teamed up with creative partner Sam Music, also a multi-platinum recording artist and acclaimed sound designer, who has created sounds for blockbuster trailers such as Spider-Man, World War Z, Rogue One and many others. Using Sam's sounds, Cowan and Music joined forces with Ryan Francesconi, an accomplished musician and software engineer who was a core contributor to AudioKit and streaming technologies underpinning the likes of YouTube, to develop the innovative audio software application that would truly transform the art of sound for film and allow anyone to create a cinema quality soundscapes in seconds.
"This application is to audio software what Pro Tools was to the tape machine. It shows what AI-assisted content creation can do. Television, advertisements, podcasts, and Instagram stories are filled with sound, yet there hasn't been a single piece of software built from the ground up dedicated to connecting sound to picture, which is why the process is so frustrating," says Gabe Cowan, CEO and Product Architect of Audio Design Desk. "While solving this problem, we discovered that we could advance the process tenfold to create a tool that becomes an inspirational partner that learns its users' taste. The industry feedback has been extraordinary."
"Audio Design Desk is a piece of software that revolutionizes the way I am able to produce content," explains Matt Cooke, an Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker and guest host for Larry King. "I'll record a five- or seven-minute monologue and then create a short film out of it. Normally that's something that could take a month to do, but because of add.app I'm able to do the soundtrack and cues in less than a day, every time. It gives me the power to instantly put onto the timeline what I'm thinking in my head. There isn't another piece of software that allows you to immediately create something at this level of professionalism."
At the time of launch, add.app already offers an incredibly robust set of features and capabilities that both professionals and enthusiasts can use for designing cinema quality soundscapes. Cowan states, "Professionals love the cinema quality sounds and the time add.app saves them, while a first-time filmmaker or someone posting a story on Instagram or TikTok can now transform their work into an A-grade sonic experience with a few keyboard clicks. It is a game changer for creatives of all stripes."
Feature highlights include:
Perform Sounds in Real Time
Turn the QWERTY keyboard into a Smart Sampler to perform Hits, Rises, Footsteps, Punches, Gunshots, or any sound effect in real time, as the video plays back. Find the perfect music for your film, flipping through music options while playing video and saving selects with a single click. Audio Design Desk is by far the fastest and easiest way to find and place cinematic sounds.
Infinite Compositions
Once sounds are placed, add.app understands where the sync points in the video are, so swapping drama for action or horror for comedy or one shoe type for another, can happen in a single click – presenting the user with an infinite range of alternate compositions.
Search from the Timeline
In add.app, users can search for sounds right from the timeline, auditioning them with their video. This saves hours hunting through massive libraries and manually placing and editing sounds.
Integration with Today's Leading NLEs and Hardware Controllers
Upon its entry to the market, add.app already boasts integration with the industry's leading NLE software, including Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro, Apple Logic, Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve, Avid Pro Tools, and Avid Media Composer, enabling users to easily export their compositions as an XML or AAF and open their sessions within the NLE of their choice – placing all the sounds in the timeline exactly as designed. add.app also works with hardware controllers like the Elgato Stream Deck, which makes the process of adding sound effects via keystrokes even easier.
Intelligent Sound Import
The highly intelligent sound importer in add.app makes the process of importing additional sound effects and music into the application incredibly easy. Users can attach metadata to their own audio files, giving their unique audio tracks the same rich information that enables add.app to automatically sync audio to the right moment on the video timeline.
Sculpting Perfect Soundscapes
Once the sounds are placed, users can tell add.app what genre, mood, or general "vibe" they'd like for their audio design. They can select how intense or complex they'd like the composition to be and then turn one sound design composition into infinite alternates without losing sync.
Audio Design Desk will be on display at the 2020 SXSW Innovation Awards Finalist Showcase on Saturday, March 14, 2020. For more information or to schedule a demo with an expert from the add.app team, contact Megan Linebarger at megan@zazilmediagroup.com.
