SaaS solution for risk-based BSA/AML makes artificial intelligence accessible and affordable for small banks

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (PRWEB) MARCH 20, 2020
Amberoon Inc., a RegTech AI company, today announced the launch of Lucre AML for the Celeriti Digital Banking platform from DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC). Lucre AML uses Agile Compliance and machine learning to address compliance cost, which is one of the chronic problems with legacy BSA/AML (Bank Secrecy Act and Anti-Money Laundering) software.
"Celeriti Digital Banking is built on the Open Banking Initiative (OBI) approach to harness innovation from innovative FinTech/RegTech companies," said Thomas Demchak, chief banking technologist at DXC. "Amberoon Lucre AML is the first RegTech solution certified on our platform and solves the critical need for effective AML compliance."
"When a bank buys AML software today, it tacitly commits to a business process decided by a software vendor," said Shirish Netke, CEO of Amberoon. "Agile compliance means using machine intelligence combined with human intelligence to create an effective and flexible AML process. For compliance teams, this means reduction in false positives, greater insight into risky behavior and an increase in productivity. The Celeriti Digital Banking platform helps us deploy modern technology at scale with one of the most trusted companies in the banking industry."
Amberoon's Agile Compliance approach provides a financial crimes intelligence overlay using AI and predictive analytics that complements Fenergo's customer journey and client lifecycle management (CLM) solutions for financial institutions. DXC and Fenergo collaborate to provide clients transformative digital solutions at scale by deploying best-in-class KYC, AML, and digital on-boarding capabilities with an outcome-based approach.
Banks globally are challenged to effectively manage money-laundering risks in a complex, dynamic, global operating and regulatory environment. Compliance has quickly risen to the top of the list of priorities for financial services providers. Lexis-Nexis recently reported $31.6 B was spent on AML compliance by banks and financial institutions in North America.
"AI and machine learning have created new opportunities for managing operational risks for banks," said Dr. Robert Mark, managing partner of Black Diamond Risk Enterprises and former Chief Risk Officer for CIBC. "Large banks are investing heavily in modern technology. Solutions like Amberoon Lucre democratize these technologies and make them available to smaller banks."
About Amberoon
Amberoon creates a risk-based approach to AML using Agile Compliance and contemporary technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Big Data and Predictive Analytics. The solution is a financial crimes AI overlay across all legacy AML solutions, creating powerful interactive visuals for bankers as well as regulators to effectively manage AML risk. The primary impact of the solution is uncovering unknown risks and reducing false positives in the AML process. Visit http://www.Amberoon.com for more information.

ST. LOUIS (PRWEB) MARCH 20, 2020
Studio Network Solutions (SNS), a leading media technology company that enables video teams to securely store, share, and organize media, today released SNS Nomad, a free utility for users of the EVO shared storage system.

Nomad leverages several features already enabled and running in the background on most EVO media storage servers. Adding Nomad to EVO's feature set means companies have an improved collaboration solution not just for their in-house team, but also for editors working virtually anywhere.

Nomad runs on any Mac or Windows computer. It is NLE-agnostic, but has extended functionality that makes it particularly effective for Adobe Premiere Pro projects.

"Demands for remote editing and remote collaboration are now top-of-mind for post-production teams. Nomad provides an answer that isn't just relevant to current events, but aligns perfectly with our long-term vision of hybrid workflows that include in-house and distributed collaboration."
Availability
SNS aims to provide the technology media professionals need so more time can be spent on creative output and less time struggling with media storage. Nomad is included with every EVO system, including EVO Prodigy, which starts at $3,799.
Nomad is immediately available for EVO users running ShareBrowser 5.0.3 and Slingshot 1.2. The utility can be run in-house, or from a secure connection to EVO using a VPN or any remote connection software. Visit this blog post for more information on using and getting Nomad.

In the fight against the pandemic, Chinese enterprises have undertaken and fulfilled their social responsibilities, donating billions of yuan and supplies in the fight against the COVID-19. Shenzhen Dashi Intelligent, for instance, has cooperated with its subsidiaries to actively participate in the fight and provide a variety of services to many hospitals, including negative pressure isolation ward renovation and construction, intelligent hospital control system, online COVID-19 consulting platforms, etc.

CHINA (PRWEB) MARCH 20, 2020
The COVID-19 continues to spread globally. As of March 18, 2020, more than 180,000 cases have been diagnosed in more than 150 countries and regions. Although the cumulative number of infected people in China has exceeded 80,000, China's disease resistance has achieved great results according to the decreasing number of infected cases. Many global medias have published articles praising the excellent control of the COVID-19 in China.
In the fight against the pandemic, Chinese enterprises have undertaken and fulfilled their social responsibilities, donating billions of yuan and supplies in the fight against the COVID-19. In Shenzhen, for instance, a group of pioneering enterprises have emerged during the fight. Shenzhen Dashi Intelligent Co., Ltd. is one of those.
Shenzhen Dashi Intelligent Co., Ltd. (002421.SZ) is a listed company providing intelligent medical services with Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, Dashi Intelligent has cooperated with its subsidiaries to actively participate in the fight and provided a variety of services to many hospitals, including technological product upgrade, hospital construction, and medical supplies donation.
Rapid Upgrade of Negative Pressure Isolation Ward Technology
The most important measure is to control the source of infection and avoid doctor-patient cross-infection. After the patients are diagnosed, the isolation and treatment must be taken in a timely manner. The negative pressure isolation ward is an important medical facility to treat patients with a highly contagious respiratory infection, isolate pathogenic microorganisms and protect medical staff.
Dashi Jiuxin Digital Medical Technology Co., Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dashi Intelligent, immediately introduced the development plan of a negative pressure isolation ward for the pandemic. With its flexible design, short implementation period, and standardized implementation effects, the plan quickly responded to the needs of health emergencies. It can be removed or restored to its original condition easily without damaging the original ward facilities. Dashi Intelligent came up with this targeted solution of "emergency negative pressure isolation ward", effectively improved the hospital's isolation and protection capabilities.
Quick Online Consulting Platforms Establishment
Huainan Dashi, a subsidiary company of Dashi Intelligent, worked with Huainan No. 1 People's Hospital and developed an online consultation platform. Patients can conduct consultation through online channels and get medical guidance, reducing unnecessary hospital trips and risk of cross-infections, during the shortage of protective supplies in medical institutions. The platform directly connects with 53 professional doctors in Huainan No. 1 People's Hospital to ensure the quality of medical treatment.
Multiple Technical and Service Support
After the outbreak, "Xiaotangshan mode" hospitals were planned to be built immediately across China. With the experience in serving more than 600 hospitals in the past, Dashi Intelligent participated in the constructions of 16 hospitals, including Wuhan Leishenshan Hospital, Xiongxian Hospital in Xiong'an new area, Beijing Xiaotangshan Hospital, Hongze People's Hospital, Shenzhen No. 3 People's Hospital, etc. Dashi Intelligent has provided services including intelligent management and control systems, construction of surgery department, ICU, and construction or reconstruction of negative pressure isolation wards.
From the perspective of the global epidemic cycle, if the peak of the epidemic in China has passed, the pandemic situations in many other countries should still be in the early or middle stages of an outbreak. Dashi Intelligent will continue to build a solid defence line for humans to fight the pandemic.

A robust package of software and services, provided at cost, specifically designed to meet the urgent virtual meeting needs of professional associations

The Apprende Virtual Meeting Suite includes everything an association needs to pivot to alternative content delivery formats, including abstract management, a robust course player, live-chat and e-posters.
In recognition of the disruptive influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on in-person professional meetings, Enforme is steeply discounting the Apprende Virtual Meeting Suite.

Our many collaborations have given us a unique understanding of professional societies, especially those that are pivoting to virtual meetings.

Moving Target Defense Leader Helps Enterprises Secure Rapidly Evolving Remote Workforce During These Unprecedented Times

BEERSHEBA, ISRAEL AND BOSTON (PRWEB) MARCH 23, 2020
Morphisec, the leader in Advanced Threat Prevention, today announced that its Unified Threat Prevention platform is free to license for enterprise work-from-home employees during the COVID-19 response. The Coronavirus pandemic has shifted the way the world works, forcing companies into having a fully remote workforce faster than anyone could have predicted. To help enterprises secure their rapidly evolving remote workforce during these unprecedented times, Morphisec is making its automatic and deterministic prevention of in-memory attacks and evasive malware, free for remote employees through June 1.
"The COVID-19 outbreak has shifted the way the world works, forcing companies into having a fully remote workforce at a pace that would stretch even the best IT team," said Ronen Yehoshua, CEO at Morphisec. "CISOs and cybersecurity professionals are struggling to adjust to these unprecedented times, and Morphisec is answering the call to ensure endpoints, and ultimately mission-critical memory, can be defended in this radically altered environment. Making Morphisec available to license for free for remote workers will allow organizations to quickly adjust to the situation and ensure they address the cybersecurity vulnerabilities that inherently come with having an entirely distributed workforce."
As workforces adjust to the new reality of working from home, employees are subjected to a dramatically less secure environment and unreliable WiFi networks. Both traditional antivirus and EDR tools depend on network connectivity, which limits their overall effectiveness in this environment. Morphisec's approach to endpoint protection is ideal for remote workforces as it doesn't rely on connectivity or analysts in order to prevent advanced threats. Instead, its Moving Target Defense technology perpetually hides key memory from attacks without the need to recognize threats. It creates confusion for attackers by scrambling the locations of .dlls, memory structures, and commonly used resources. Authorized programs such as browsers and email attachments remote workers rely on function normally without any business disruption.
The Morphisec Unified Threat Prevention Platform utilizes Moving Target Defense technology to prevent advanced threats without generating alerts to chase, impacting system performance, or impeding business operations. It is highly effective against blocking unknown threats and for organizations looking to instantly secure their workforce with no operational maintenance. With free licensing of the Unified Threat Prevention Platform, enterprise remote workforces will receive:

Protection of remote employees against the most dangerous advanced threats including fileless attacks, evasive malware, in-memory exploits and zero-days

Integration with Windows Defender AV through Morphisec's partnership with Microsoft for bulletproof Windows 10 security

Immediate installation with no reboot, configuration or tuning required

Zero-touch maintenance and full offline protection without requiring home connectivity for heavy signature or patch updates

No CPU performance impact to home computers or Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI)

Business continuity that automatically locks down attacks through instant hardening of remote computers and VDI instances

Prevention of browser-based attacks to ensure remote employees can securely access the SaaS solutions they need

"Like the rest of the world, the business world needs to come together in battling the coronavirus pandemic," added Yehoshua. "Organizations navigating this new territory must rest assured their critical assets are secured against advanced threats that are targeting them at their most vulnerable state. Morphisec is committed to securing enterprises of all sizes so they can stay focused on maneuvering through this crisis and ensuring the health of their employees."
Enterprises interested in this free offer to secure their remote workforces and ensure business continuity can inquire here.
About Morphisec
Morphisec offers an entirely new level of innovation to customers in its Endpoint Threat Prevention product, delivering protection against the most advanced cyberattacks. The company's patented Moving Target Defense technology prevents threats others can't, including APTs, zero-days, ransomware, evasive fileless attacks and web-borne exploits. Morphisec provides a crucial, small-footprint memory-defense layer that easily deploys into a company's existing security infrastructure to form a simple, highly effective, cost-efficient prevention stack that is truly disruptive to today's existing cybersecurity model.

Cybercriminals Take Advantage of Pandemic, Target Individuals, Businesses, Matrix Integration Provides Five Cybersecurity Tips During the Coronavirus Outbreak

CHICAGO (PRWEB) MARCH 23, 2020
"Cybercrime exploits fear and uncertainty," according to the World Economic Forum*, and citizens are experiencing this phenomenon in real time as the health crisis unfolds. Cybercriminals are targeting businesses and health organizations as well as individuals, many of whom are working from home. According to Juan Mack, IT Manager for Matrix Integration, this is a time for both businesses and employees to be even more vigilant to prevent cyberattacks. Matrix Integration is an IT solutions provider for more than 1,000 businesses and schools in Indiana, Kentucky and beyond.
"When you're in an office and protected by network-wide security systems, you're in a safe bubble," says Mack. "When you're working remotely some of those safeguards go away, so you have less protection from malicious sites or emails. It becomes even more important not to get distracted or click on links that might cause you or your company harm."
Cybercriminals aren't looking for anything new – their focus is money and personal information – but their message has changed. People should expect to see links to false Coronavirus websites, fake requests for donations, and even phony emails from health and insurance companies.
Matrix Integration's Top Five Cybersecurity Tips During the Coronavirus Outbreak
1. Have a secure connection. Free or unknown Wi-Fi sources may be operated by cybercriminals who can easily steal the data users' transmit while on their networks. People should not connect to wireless networks that aren't recognized, especially those with "free" in the name or those defined as an "unsecured computer-to-computer network."
2. Get information from the source. Don't trust or click on links – whether in an email or online – that promise to take you to Coronavirus updates. Instead, go directly to websites run by individual cities, states and school districts, or national organizations like the CDC.
3. Beware of multiple modalities. Criminals are using a variety of means to make inroads with victims. In addition to emails and false websites, never give personal information over the phone, by text or through a mobile app.
4. Share information within the company. Any suspicious or malicious emails or sites should be shared with company IT managers. They can alert others of the scam or stop it from going further.
5. Share information at home. With other family members and children working from home at the same time, have a discussion about potential threats and how to handle them.
Additional Tips for Companies Managing a Remote Workforce During the Coronavirus Outbreak

Send companywide communication to employees with direct links to remote working resources, including email and file-sharing locations.

Instate or enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA) protocols – this means that employees will need more than one password or code to access corporate resources, such as their online password and then a code sent to their phone.

Keep sending regular reminders to employees about online security – but keep messages short and cover just one subject. For example, one email might provide an example of a current phishing scam. Another might contain a short employee video.

Keeping Networks Safe
No matter how many precautions business and individuals take, hackers can still gain access to networks and systems. For businesses and their employees, Matrix Integration collaborates with clients to identify the assets that are most important to them, come up with a plan to protect and detect those assets, and provide tools to discover and respond to attacks before they can cause damage. Types of solutions include robust identity management systems so passwords are harder to steal, data encryption software, and staff training.

Guidance to ensure the safety, security, privacy, reliability and resilience of software for IIoT systems

NEEDHAM, MASS. (PRWEB) MARCH 23, 2020
The Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC), the world's leading organization transforming business and society by accelerating the adoption of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), today announced the publication of the Software Trustworthiness Best Practices Whitepaper. Written for developers, owner-operators and decision makers, the whitepaper addresses various aspects of creating, acquiring and protecting software for IIoT systems. It also provides practical and actionable best practices for recognizing, addressing, managing and mitigating risks and their sources, and includes numerous use cases.
"You cannot talk about the trustworthiness of today's systems without an in-depth understanding of the trustworthiness of the software in these systems," says Mark Hermeling, one of the authors of the whitepaper and Senior Director of Product Marketing at GrammaTech, Inc. "This paper concisely lays out the topics to consider when reasoning about the trustworthiness of software, during the entire lifecycle of the system, from inception to disposal."
"Systems depend on software to function in potentially hostile environments that are inherently untrustworthy," says Simon Rix, one of the authors of the whitepaper, and Security Evangelist from Irdeto. "As a security practitioner, I like the practical nature of this whitepaper as it presents techniques and methodologies to ensure that software is protected and not a target of attacks, thereby enabling successful business objectives in hostile, untrustworthy environments."
"Software is an essential part of almost all modern systems," said one of the authors of the whitepaper Frederick Hirsch from Fujitsu, and co-chair of the IIC Trustworthiness Task Group. "Ensuring that software is trustworthy is essential to assuring the trustworthiness of these systems, to make them appropriately secure, safe, reliable, resilient and privacy protecting."
"The specific aspects of trustworthiness in a system depend on the system, the industry and the consequences of failure," said Marcellus Buchheit, one of the authors of the whitepaper, co-chair of the IIC Trustworthiness Task Group, President & CEO at Wibu-Systems USA Inc. and Co-Owner, Wibu-Systems AG. "Confidence is not only dependent on the quality of the software itself but also on an organization and its processes. If you want to convince others that your software should be trusted, you must be transparent, providing concrete evidence of best practices."
"This new whitepaper addresses the critical and often mis-understood aspects of creating trustworthy systems," says Bob Martin, one of the authors of the whitepaper, co-chair of the IIC Trustworthiness Task Group, member of the IIC Steering Committee and Senior Principal Engineer from MITRE's Trust & Assurance Cyber Technologies Department. "It will help anyone who uses software and systems to create, buy, operate and maintain them in a trustworthy manner."
The whitepaper, Software Trustworthiness Best Practices, including a full list of members who contributed to it can be found on the IIC website here.
About Industrial Internet Consortium
The Industrial Internet Consortium is the world's leading membership program transforming business and society by accelerating the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). The IIC delivers a trustworthy IIoT in which the world's systems and devices are securely connected and controlled to deliver transformational outcomes.

PreVeil announced today that it is offering its cybersecurity platform at no charge to critical infrastructure institutions battling the Coronavirus crisis. This offer will help those workers whose important duties are now being carried out at home on devices with questionable levels of security, making their important information a prime target for hackers.

BOSTON (PRWEB) MARCH 23, 2020
PreVeil, the provider of end-to-end encrypted email and file sharing, announced today that it is offering its cybersecurity platform at no charge to critical infrastructure institutions battling the Coronavirus crisis. As the mass exodus from workplaces to home offices has swept the country, few organizations are fully prepared for the cybersecurity challenges remote work brings. PreVeil is moving to help federal, state and local governments and agencies, first responders, crisis management teams and healthcare non-profits by offering its platform for free.
Hackers have already spotted opportunity in the important push to work from home. The Department of Defense reported that cyberattacks on its networks have soared as remote work has placed unprecedented loads on its networks. The federal government's Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) was among the first agencies to face cyberattack as it worked to respond to the spread of the virus.
"There is no precedent for the volume of critical work being done right now from home," said PreVeil CEO Randy Battat. "We are putting PreVeil's resources into public service to secure and support critical communications during this national emergency."
Today, executive strategy sessions, crisis management planning, sensitive government work and more are all happening on home computers, laptops and mobile devices with questionable levels of security. PreVeil is reaching out to help quickly and effectively solve that problem.
"Far too many organizations have not come to grips with the vulnerabilities that come with this scale of work from home, especially when sensitive data is involved," said Juliette Kayyem, former assistant secretary in the Department of Homeland Security. "It's great that PreVeil is offering key players in this crisis a solution that is so effective and simple to use. This is a real public service."
PreVeil's end-to-end encryption protects email, files and data—even if networks and servers are breached or administrators are compromised. PreVeil can be deployed in minutes, integrates with familiar Mac and PC applications, and is easy to administer. The platform's encryption offers secure email and file sharing, independent of the quality of machines and devices on which it's used.
"As a nation, we need to be adopting the smartest tools out there for our cybersecurity," said Admiral James Stavridis (ret.), former Supreme Allied Commander NATO and PreVeil board member. "PreVeil's combination of light footprint and ultra-security is state of the art and never more welcome than right now."
PreVeil is ready to help agencies on the front line of the current emergency devote their full attention to the important tasks in front of them without extra vulnerability as teams expand their remote work. Relevant organizations are encouraged to contact PreVeil to ensure secure communications as the country rallies to fight the Coronavirus.
Press inquiries: Please contact Orlee Berlove at orlee@preveil.com or 6176-633-2931.
About PreVeil
PreVeil makes end to end encryption usable for everyday business. PreVeil's encrypted email works with existing apps like Outlook or Gmail, letting users keep their regular email addresses. PreVeil Drive works like DropBox for file sharing, but with far better security. All messages and documents are encrypted end-to-end, which means that no one other than intended recipient can read or scan them—not even PreVeil. PreVeil is designed for both small teams and large enterprises. Visit PreVeil online to learn more.

There is no precedent for the volume of critical work being done right now from home. We are putting PreVeil's resources into public service to secure and support critical communications during this national emergency.

Ready-to-use solution helps organizations understand the business impact of the novel Coronavirus on their supply chains and other activities that rely on third parties

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) MARCH 23, 2020
Aravo Solutions, a leader in third-party risk and performance management, has announced the availability of a subscription-free COVID-19 Business Impact Assessment. The SaaS application is pre-configured to let organizations quickly gather information from their third parties to assess their preparedness for the current pandemic and how that might impact their operations.
"In these unprecedented times, we are tested as people to maintain our values and continuously help each other while also maintaining focus on the tasks at hand," says David Rusher, Chief Customer Officer at Aravo. "Aravo Solutions was founded with the purpose of helping people around the world defeat some of society's greatest challenges, and in this challenging time, we are committed to living up to our core values and supporting the business community."
Aravo's COVID-19 Business Impact Assessment is an ultra-light version of Aravo for Third-Party Management Express that has been purpose-built for this rapid response situation. An alternative to juggling spreadsheets and manually tracking and reporting on responses, the application allows organizations to:

Upload third-party and supplier details into a centralized system

Activate a pre-defined COVID-19 impact assessment to third-parties from a secure environment

Automate processes associated with collecting the assessments, including pre-configured emails, notifications, and reminders

Assess and monitor third parties' response readiness and potential risk impact to business operations through included reporting.

In addition to greater efficiency, the COVID-19 Business Impact Assessment delivers the visibility organizations need for agile responsiveness to this evolving situation. All of the data related to third parties within the scope of COVID-19 impact assessment is stored in a centralized location, and stakeholders can view statuses individually or in aggregate. Users will be able to generate a robust report of the data using the included pre-configured report.
Unfortunately, there will likely be some people who will try to capitalize on the crisis and launch phishing or other scams, making security even more critical. By leveraging Aravo's secure environment, organizations can provide assurance that third parties and employees are interacting with a legitimate source.
Organizations do not have to be current Aravo customers to access the complimentary Aravo COVID-19 Business Impact Assessment, and there is no obligation for additional software purchase. Though purpose-built for rapid deployment with minimal support, Aravo COVID-19 Business Impact Assessment requires some setup and basic familiarization for maximum effectiveness. Aravo is charging a minimal one-time setup fee to enable our services team to provide the appropriate level of customer support. Aravo plans to continue to support the software without a subscription cost for as long as necessary to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic threat.
For additional information on Aravo COVID-19 Business Impact Assessment and how to request a free subscription, please visit: https://info.aravo.com/covid-19-solution-request

Leading security associations join forces to deliver increased services to global security leaders as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic crisis

SILVER SPRING, MD. AND ALEXANDRIA, VA. (PRWEB) MARCH 23, 2020
ASIS International and the Security Industry Association (SIA), the leading membership associations for the security industry, have entered into a partnership to best aid in the COVID-19 recovery and rebuilding efforts of its diverse group of 34,000 member professionals and over 1,000 member companies respectively.
The partnership will begin by addressing two primary areas of focus – business operations and advocacy – as well as content development and coordination.
Business Operations & Advocacy
SIA will lead a team composed of representatives from SIA and ASIS government relations/affairs departments as well as ASIS' digital strategy office.
The primary responsibilities of this team will be to:

Review and analyze rules pertaining to the final enactment of COVID-19 aid package(s) expected to be passed by Congress

Review the supply chain and any changes in federal rules that may be needed

Provide any information about preparedness grants to members

Content Development & Coordination
ASIS will lead a team composed of representatives from SIA and ASIS learning, editorial, marketing and industry relations departments.
The primary responsibility of this team is to develop and implement a coordinated approach to be a clearinghouse for information on COVID-19 and related knowledge and learning. Providing members support in aspects such as health, well-being, business continuity and communications, this outreach will include virtual learning opportunities, so members can participate on their own schedules.
In addition to these two primary objectives, other goals related to this partnership will include developing targeted collaborations with academia and aligned health care associations and evaluating the unique needs of small and medium-sized business members.
"This collaboration between ASIS and SIA is a perfect example of putting the industry first to help suppliers and practitioners navigate through uncertain and unsettling times," stated Don Erickson, CEO, SIA. "Together we can help our members respond today to the far-reaching impact of COVID-19 and guide them with information and education that prepares our industry for a renewed future."
Moving forward, information and announcements related to this partnership will be posted jointly on the SIA and ASIS websites.
"This partnership marks the security industry's top associations coming together in an unprecedented way," according to Peter O'Neil, CEO, ASIS International. "The COVID-19 crisis has provided a unique opportunity for us to create a paradigm shift to address the growing needs of security professionals both here in the US and across the globe. Our partnership reinforces the message that the security industry is stronger when it comes together."

CEIPAL, a SaaS platform for the front and back-office business operations of staffing companies, today announced that they ranked 81st on the list of America's Best Startup Employers 2020.
This list and placement was conducted by Forbes, who partnered with the market research company Statista to help identify the up-and-coming companies that were most liked by their employees. Overall criteria required that only American companies founded between 2010 and 2017 with at least 50 employees qualified for consideration. The top 500 businesses to qualify were then ranked in the following categories: employer reputation, employee satisfaction, and growth.
"As a company dedicated to ensuring employers are able to find the best and most qualified employees, the honor of CEIPAL being named one of America's Best Startup Employers is especially sweet," said Sameer Penakalapati, Founder of CEIPAL. "As leaders in digital transformation, we are constantly pushing ourselves to bring bold ideas to life, enabling business to have the best possible solution for growth and success - all while ensuring our employees have a smile on their face."
In the employee satisfaction category, CEIPAL ranked exceptionally high on the list due to the high number of positive employee reviews across multiple sites, including Glassdoor, where the company currently has an overall star rating of 4.8 out of 5.
In order to determine a company's reputation, Statista evaluated each organization's articles, blogs and social media posts. CEIPAL's blog includes a constant stream of new publications, which highlight industry best practices, thought leadership and various timely and relevant topics within the recruitment world. Additionally, the company's social presence has grown exponentially over the past year with new content being shared on CEIPAL's social channels every day.
The final category, growth, was another area where CEIPAL excelled. In order to determine overall growth for each company, Statista analyzed each organizations' website traffic and employee headcount over a two-year period. CEIPAL's constant innovation of new, popular features on a monthly basis for their flagship product, and the company's growing influence and participation in industry-wide events, CEIPAL TalentHire has become an industry standard when it comes to ATS options for recruiters.
Over 7 million data points were collected and analyzed across more than 2,500 businesses, and CEIPAL was able to climb to the top of the list.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) MARCH 23, 2020

Regroup is offering free demonstrations of the company's mass notification platform. Interested parties can schedule a demo on Regroup's website to learn how mass notifications can help their organizations communicate better during emergencies such as the current pandemic.
Regular 24/7 support lines are open to current clients who want to learn more about the new COVID-19 map layers.

Cybera, the leader in SD-WAN application network and security services for the network edge, today announced it has been named to JMP Securities, 2020 Elite 80 report, highlighting the 80 hottest privately held cybersecurity and IT infrastructure vendors. For Second Year Running, Cybera Recognized As One of 80 Having The Capabilities To Dominate Its Respective Market

NASHVILLE, TENN. (PRWEB) MARCH 24, 2020
Cybera, the leader in SD-WAN application network and security services for the network edge, today announced it has been named to JMP Securities, 2020 Elite 80 report, highlighting the 80 hottest privately held cybersecurity and IT infrastructure vendors.
JMP Securities notes in the report that the firm's analysts "personally spoke with executives of each Elite 80 member and we believe the companies have the capabilities to dominate their respective markets." The report further states, "...security and IT environments are evolving so rapidly that the need for innovation is accelerating as traditional approaches are deemed inadequate for new business models."
"We are honored to have been recognized for the second consecutive year by JMP Securities and included in their prestigious 2020 Elite 80 report," said Bethany Allee, Executive Vice President of Marketing, Cybera. "We believe it underscores the industry's growing recognition that the remote network edge, IoT and cloud present unique challenges that cannot be solved by traditional networking and security solutions. Whereas, the CyberaONE Platform makes it easy, non-disruptive and cost-effective to securely deliver, test and deploy new cloud-based applications and services in highly dispersed, remote environments possessing little, if any, onsite IT expertise."
How Cybera Is Different
Traditional approaches to networking force applications to conform to network requirements. This fundamentally doesn't work in a software-based cloud and IoT world that demands agility.
The CyberaONE Platform allows you to build powerful application networks that easily integrate into your existing environments to meet both your current and future needs.
The platform is purpose-built for distributed enterprises and the proliferation of IoT devices.
Unlike traditional networking approaches, Cybera delivers secure application networks rather than site-to-site connections and VPNs.
With Cybera, each application gets its own secure network that is both optimized and prioritized based on specific business requirements, including performance and security.
You can quickly provision new applications without impacting the visible footprint of the rest of the network.
This approach minimizes the cyber-threat profile and regulatory compliance scope of your environment.
This is the sixth year of the annual JMP Securities Elite 80 report (formerly Super 70). JMP Securities LLC is a full-service investment bank that provides equity research, institutional brokerage, and investment banking services to growth companies in the technology, healthcare, financial services, and real estate markets.

State-of-the-art Network-on-Chip (NoC) technology enables next-generation of SSD controllers for high density real-time 4K H.265 video transcoding and storage

CAMPBELL, CALIF. (PRWEB) MARCH 24, 2020
Arteris IP, the world's leading supplier of innovative, silicon-proven network-on-chip (NoC) interconnect intellectual property, today announced that NETINT Technologies has once again licensed Arteris IP FlexNoC Interconnect for use in its next-generation of enterprise solid state disk (SSD) storage system controllers with on-chip video encoding processors. NETINT's first purchase of Arteris IP interconnect licenses was announced in January of 2019 (see, "Arteris IP FlexNoC Interconnect Licensed by NETINT Technologies for PCIe 4.0 Enterprise SSD Controllers").
Arteris FlexNoC interconnect IP provides advanced data protection features to NETINTs SSD controller systems-on-chip (SoC) while providing the high bandwidth, low power consumption, and fast latency required for real-time H.265 video encoding. The new Codensity G4 SSD Controller SoC is a flexible Enterprise-class SSD controller with up to 16 programmable flash control channels, efficient hardware error correction, and unique on-chip H.264/H.265 video processing accelerators.

"Arteris FlexNoC interconnect IP has been critical to our products' success because it enables the high bandwidth, low latency and data protection required for our systems. The flexibility of Arteris FlexNoC has allowed us to implement more sophisticated SoC architectures in less time that would otherwise be possible, thereby allowing us to create higher margin chips with less engineering effort."
"NETINT's decision to procure more licenses of FlexNoC interconnect IP is proof of the technological and business benefits of adopting our IP as the communications backbone of SoCs," said K. Charles Janac, President and CEO of Arteris IP. "We are excited about the success of NETINT's current Arteris-enabled products and look forward to working together to push the limits of what is possible in the enterprise SSD and video transcoding markets."

Companies Partner to End Malfunctions in the Connected Home

NEW YORK (PRWEB) MARCH 24, 2020
Veego Software, an Israel-based startup that brings artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies to perfect the subscriber experience in connected home environments, today announced its partnership with Amdocs, a leading provider of software and services to communications and media companies.
Veego addresses malfunctions in the connected home as it grows smarter and more complex. When smart devices and services do not function efficiently, residential users become frustrated and turn to their Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for help. Since malfunctions can occur for a myriad of reasons anywhere across the service-delivery chain—from the service cloud through the internet, in the home router, across the WiFi network and within devices and their inter-communications—ISPs require a very broad and deep level of visibility. But today they are blind.
Employing AI and other advanced technologies, Veego autonomously discovers the smart devices and the services they consume within and beyond the home, endowing ISPs with the visibility that enables perfection and personalization of the subscriber experience. Continuously monitoring the behavior of connected devices and the services they use, Veego automatically detects malfunctions as they occur. Employing its unique, cloud-based Malfunction Signature Library, Veego autonomously analyzes and resolves a multitude of problems even before users experience them.
With Veego, many support calls are deflected and shortened, truck rolls are reduced, and the plague of unnecessary router replacements is eliminated. ISPs are able to realize millions of dollars in support-cost savings while Veego's solution also enables them to optimize and personalize the experience of their subscribers. Vigilantly learning about the unique behavior of each connected home, Veego automatically alerts ISPs to attractive upsell opportunities—new connected devices, support services and bandwidth packages—tuned to the specific needs of each home.
With several lab trials underway with major ISPs, Veego and Amdocs will provide integrated solutions to enhance smart care in the home.
Amdocs, a leading software and services provider to communications and media companies, will adopt the Veego technology to offer combined solutions for customer care and user experience to major internet service providers globally.
"The value that Veego brings to ISPs is game-changing," said Gil Rosen, General Manager at Amdocs. "Veego gives eyes to ISPs enabling them to see what is going on in the connected home, drastically improving their support of millions of subscribers and reducing OPEX on customer care. We are excited by the opportunity to bring this breakthrough technology to Internet Service Providers around the world."
"We are honored to attract an industry leader like Amdocs, an investing partner, who can recognize and capitalize on the value of the Veego solution," declared Amir Kotler, Veego CEO. "Veego technology will enrich Amdocs' portfolio of products and services, enabling them to offer a unique, game-changing solution to ISPs who service millions of smart, hyper-connected homes."

Purpose-built solution optimizes work for 2.7 billion global deskless workers.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) MARCH 24, 2020
Skedulo, the leader in deskless productivity software, today announced the release of its Deskless Productivity Cloud, the industry's first dedicated, cloud-based solution empowering organizations to manage, engage and analyze their deskless workforce, whether they are mobile or in a fixed location.
Powered by the Skedulo platform and coupled with new capabilities to boost the productivity of deskless workers, the Deskless Productivity Cloud streamlines work while delivering a best-in-class experience for deskless employees, schedulers, business owners and customers alike.
The Deskless Productivity Cloud allows organizations to:

Manage work and organize the schedules of hundreds of deskless workers

Engage employees and customers through the Skedulo web and mobile applications to encourage collaboration, deliver satisfying experiences and drive impactful work

Analyze work results and scheduling patterns to intelligently improve service delivery

Configure a flexible solution tailored to existing business workstreams

Extend the deskless environment to interoperate seamlessly with the surrounding technology ecosystem

Eighty percent of the global workforce, or 2.7 billion people, is deskless. Despite the compelling numbers, this segment has historically been underserved by technology vendors. As enterprises rapidly embrace digital transformation for their entire workforce, a new category of deskless productivity software is emerging, particularly in high-touch service industries such as healthcare, solar sales and service, nonprofit and retail.
"Organizations are paying more attention to their frontline workforce – i.e., those who deal directly with customers or are closely involved in the production process. These workers have traditionally remained outside the scope of IT and business communications, but increasingly organizations are prioritizing their role to improve business agility." said Raul Castanon-Martinez, senior analyst, workforce productivity and collaboration at 451 Research, part of S&P Global Market Intelligence. "We expect digital transformation initiatives to expand in 2020 where frontline workers will more directly drive business outcomes."
Additional features include:

Shifts and Rosters: Handle complex scheduling requirements for shift workers and mobile workers by easily setting up rosters, creating work based on resource requirements, communicating work offers and managing check in/check outs, saving valuable time and driving operational efficiency.

Analytics: Capture and report on deskless workforce productivity, utilization, and scheduling by connecting disparate data and information. Simplify administration and compliance and unlock insights to improve operational efficiency and gain a competitive edge.

Dynamic Messaging (in early preview): Enables deskless workers to communicate with schedulers, customers and other resources necessary to execute their job effectively. Real-time connection between the field and headquarters increases visibility about a particular job, resulting in both satisfied employees and customers.

Powerful Integrations:

- Skedulo's partnership with Boomi, a Dell Technologies company, makes it faster, simpler and more efficient to integrate key systems within your organization with The Deskless Productivity Cloud. Boomi supports over 1,500+ application endpoints, allowing businesses to customize Skedulo to fit their existing business workflows.

- Skedulo's partnership with Bridge Connector integrates Skedulo's intelligent scheduling engine with leading electronic health record (EHR) solutions and healthcare technologies through Bridge Connector's comprehensive library of connectors, which includes Epic, Point Click Care and Athena, to name a few.

Before standardizing on Skedulo for deskless productivity, Sunrun, a leading U.S.-based provider of home solar and batteries, used a variety of manual, ad-hoc scheduling methods, including Excel, Google sheets and email to manage scheduling.
"From a leadership perspective, we didn't have visibility into what was going on in the field — what stores we were staffing that day, who was supposed to be there, or whether they were showing up," said Tim Haines, senior product manager at Sunrun.
Today, Sunrun is able to manage their retail operations at scale. Skedulo also helps the solar electricity provider understand its mobile employee performance at a more detailed level.
"With Skedulo, now we can dial into a specific solar advisor at a specific store and compare their hours worked and performance against the rest of the team," Haines said. "We can have a better understanding of the best fit for the right person at the right store at the right time."
Bridge Connector founder and CEO, David Wenger, added, "As a partner of Skedulo, we see the Deskless Productivity Cloud as a huge step forward for the billions of deskless workers worldwide, particularly in the healthcare industry, where care is increasingly being delivered outside the four walls of a traditional hospital setting. When coupled with powerful integrations with EHRs and other platforms, Skedulo's Deskless Productivity Cloud not only provides more seamless caregiver management solutions for healthcare employers but can also enable better continuity of care for patients."
About Skedulo:
Founded in 2013, headquartered in San Francisco and with offices in Australia, Vietnam, and the United Kingdom, Skedulo has enabled over 160 organizations, including The American Red Cross, Easterseals Bay Area, and Sunrun to seamlessly schedule and service more than 5 million appointments around the globe. Skedulo's leading Deskless Productivity Cloud solution empowers organizations to manage, engage and analyze their deskless workforce and is built to integrate with business-critical systems including Salesforce, Zendesk, ServiceNow, Workday, Epic Systems, and multiple electronic health record (EHR) solutions through a partnership with Bridge Connector. The company has secured more than $40 million in funding to date, led by M12, Costanoa Ventures, and Blackbird.

We can offer critical technology roadmaps and lifecycle asset planning for their customers. This enables our partners to see and address issues more easily and take advantage of ongoing sales opportunities for expanding into the account," says Vande Hey.
Partners will have the option to sell any additional solutions identified by Marco through Marco's partner program or through another provider.
The benefits of life cycle asset planning and technology roadmaps carryover to end users as they uncover trouble spots in technology infrastructures and help businesses plan more proactively.
"Most companies don't have critical strategies nailed down and they need help—from backup strategies to work-from-home-strategies. With Managed IT Services, they'll get consultation from us on technical strategy, budget planning, timeframes and implementation. Ultimately, we're mutually serving end users and giving them better outcomes," adds Vande Hey.    
Matt Kanaskie, VP of IT Sales, says Managed IT Services also allow partners and end users to take advantage of the highest-level security solutions at an affordable cost.
"The sophistication we're offering around our security solutions within Managed IT takes a lot of training, money and expertise to acquire. Most companies don't have ability to hire people with our level of expertise. We offer them Fortune 500-level IT and security services at a per-user basis without having to buy the technology or hire the people to implement and support it," says Kanaskie.
Kanaskie says Marco's Managed IT Services also offer channel partners a way to improve customer retention by broadening and enhancing their offerings.
"As technology becomes more complex, more companies are looking for a single-source technology provider. Marco's Managed IT Services give partners who offer a narrower solution set an effective way to offer a broader and more comprehensive set of solutions," Kanaskie adds.
Certified partners will also have access to Marco's training specialists and proposal team, so they'll know how best to promote the services and get the best price for everyone.
More than anything, Kanaskie says Marco's Managed IT offers partners and end users 24/7 peace of mind.
"Managed IT doesn't get sick, take vacation or go home at five pm. It also doesn't consume health insurance and other benefits that many companies are trying to put a cap on. Managed IT is already prepared to support your entire company even if it's a remote work force. That's never been more real than right now," he says.

Facilitates a 'privacy-first' environment by identifying sensitive data for remote workers and enterprises

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
Spirion, a pioneer in building solutions that enable companies around the globe to take the critical first step towards data security and privacy, today announced the availability of no-cost resources to help both remote employees and enterprises implement a 'privacy-first' work environment in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The company is offering data security teams a 60-day no-cost license for the essential functionality within its Sensitive Data Manager software. Spirion is also offering remote employees a no-cost Data Discovery Agent to discover personally identifiable information on their home computers.
Amid heightened COVID-19 concerns, millions of people are moving to a pervasive 'work, study, and teach from home' policy with many individuals working on their private computers. On March 13, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the risk advisor to the United States, issued an alert encouraging "organizations to adopt a heightened state of cybersecurity" when implementing work from home alternatives for employees, as they introduce increased cyber-vulnerabilities.
"These are unprecedented times: never have workers left a traditional office setting to work from home this quickly, at this scale, or with this little pre-planning. IT teams have been working around the clock to ensure business operations continue as securely as possible," said Kevin Coppins, Spirion President and CEO. "Spirion was founded to protect personal data, and at no time in our company's history has data become more vulnerable and more targeted than it is right now. The sensitive data threat surface for almost every organization, public or private, has grown exponentially in just the past ten days as dedicated workers do their jobs from home. Our team is committed to working alongside any organization that is concerned with protecting sensitive data that belongs to its customers, employees, partners, and communities."
No-Cost Sensitive Data Manager 60-Day License
Spirion is offering organizations a 60-day no-cost license for its Sensitive Data Manager software to search remote workforce computers for sensitive data. The program includes a limited version of console server software and agent software for searching Windows 7 and Windows 10 endpoint devices. The customer will install console server software in their data center behind its firewall and VPN gateway. The company will also include up to four hours of professional services to install, configure, and fine-tune the system and setup reports.
No-Cost Data Discovery Agent for Remote Workers
Spirion is also providing a no-cost download of its Data Discovery Agent to help remote workers discover the sensitive information that lives on their computer. The agent will find personally identifiable information such as social security, credit card, bank account, driver's license numbers, and passwords. It will display the type and location of discovered sensitive data so remote workers can take measures to secure their personal information. Currently, the no-cost Data Discovery Agent is only available for Windows.
About Spirion
Spirion (http://www.spirion.com) is a pioneer in designing the critical first step of data security and privacy through its data discovery, persistent classification, and behavior software and services. Since 2006, thousands of organizations across all industries worldwide have reduced their sensitive data footprint and proactively minimized the risks, costs, and reputational damage of successful cyberattacks and regulatory violations. The company was recently ranked by CIOReview magazine as one of the "20 Most Promising Compliance Technology Solution Providers of 2019," an annual listing of 20 companies that are at the forefront of providing compliance technology solutions and transforming businesses. Spirion is an award-winning data privacy software company with recent wins in the Info Security Products Guide 2020 Global Excellence Awards as a Grand Trophy Winner and as a winner in specific categories for SaaS, cloud, and on-premise data discovery and classification.

Email expert discusses the increased risks of working at home and recognizing the signs of malicious coronavirus phishing attacks—in a new article from Messaging Architects

HOBOKEN, N.J. (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and email security consultant, examines the increased cyber security risks as working from home numbers more than double in a new article on the Messaging Architects website.
The informative article also shares several signs of coronavirus phishing attacks to help remote workers recognize them. The author then lists four tips for organizations to protect against the increased risks of remote work.
"Cyber criminals love a crisis. Using emotional appeals and a sense of urgency, they trick users into surrendering sensitive information or unknowingly downloading malware," stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects.
Below are a few excerpts from the article, "Coronavirus Phishing Attacks Target Remote Workers."
"While advances in network technology and mobile devices have made work at home possible, remote work increases the attack surface and, consequently, the risk. Employees often work outside the usual security perimeter from home networks already crowded with IoT devices like gaming consoles, TVs and appliances."
"These home networks (or, worse, public Wi-Fi) often lack the security measures of corporate networks. And in a crisis like this pandemic, criminals count on the changing work environment to overwhelm and distract IT departments. Security professionals must address the challenge of protecting hundreds of new devices while providing additional avenues for workers to connect."
Enlist Expert Help
In uncertain times, the last thing IT managers need is to add panic about email security to their list of worries. Instead, they should partner with a trusted email consultant and cyber security provider to implement the necessary protections that will provide peace of mind.
The experts at Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies company, conduct comprehensive risk assessments and implement cyber security defense measures to guard against coronavirus phishing attacks and other threats to business networks.
Prepare employees to work remotely
Small and mid-size business leaders need professional cyber security and guidance to keep employees working remotely productive. Click for a summary of remote work services provided by eMazzanti technologies.

Report highlights key areas of disinformation impacting the fight to solve COVID-19 and the widespread panic around it.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
Blackbird.AI, the company that helps brands and governments understand the harmful content and propaganda impacting public opinion, damaging reputations, and harming democracies, announced today it has released their latest COVID-19 Disinformation Report.
The company has analyzed over 40 million tweets over the past two weeks through their proprietary software solution, integrating human intelligence, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. Blackbird.AI found that approximately 18M out of the 40M COVID-19 social media posts they studied were manipulated to push harmful narratives to the public. Blackbird's latest report can be downloaded on their website, http://www.blackbird.ai
"Disinformation around COVID-19 is far more pervasive than the public may realize. The impact is far-reaching – and in this current environment, has an incredibly harmful effect on the public's well-being," said Wasim Khaled, CEO and Co-Founder of Blackbird.AI. "The insights contained in our report demonstrate the massive impact disinformation has on our public discourse in an era of COVID-19 and other challenges."
Blackbird.AI's multidisciplinary approach analyzes a wide variety of discourses, including social media and news. Our team analyzes where that information falls on our proprietary "manipulation index". The report's top line findings focus on manipulation campaigns about the delegitimization of democratic leaders and the media, conspiracies about COVID-19 being a bioweapon, immigration xenophobia in Europe, and more.
The report, designed to help us understand the impact of disinformation on the COVID-19 crisis, demonstrates how the proactive identification of harmful narratives reduces the eventual impact they have on our lives and our livelihoods. The report makes it clear that disinformation -- whether from state-sponsored attacks or individual campaigns --must be detected early to prevent the damage it creates.
"We are facing asymmetrical information warfare being waged against the American public at possibly one of our most vulnerable moments in recent history. Our information ecosystem is susceptible to manipulation from threat actors, whether they aim to incite fear and panic, or to downplay cause for concern. During a pandemic disinformation, not unlike gasoline thrown on an already burning fire, can cause immeasurable harm and even loss of life. It's imperative that these campaigns are detected at scale, and mitigated before they can spiral out of control," said Khaled.

We help Journalists, Brands, Governments and the Public see the story behind the story for a more authentic information ecosystem.

Newly formed Sage Integration brings client-centric physical security services to enterprise customers nationwide. The company has strong financial backing and a highly experienced executive team.

KENT, OHIO (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
With decades of combined security industry leadership and experience, new Sage Integration brings a client-centric approach to protecting the people, facilities and reputation of enterprise customers nationwide. Sage combines the proven capabilities of AYSCO Security Consultants and DTS Security, two regional security powerhouses, with the resources and commitment of Talisman Capital, one of the country's most recognized equity partners.
"Our leadership team and strong financial backing will enable us to create a truly national footprint through both organic growth and acquisitions of other leading regional security integrators," said Eric Frasier, chief executive officer, Sage Integration. "As we grow Sage, we are only looking for the right partners. There must be a cultural fit which means leadership needs to be as passionate about exceeding customer expectations and empowering employees as we are."
Joining Sage as its chief operating officer is 30-year security veteran John Nemerofsky. He said Sage has the right blend of leadership and the new ideas to make long-needed changes to the way the security integrators conduct business.
"I made a strategic decision to join SAGE because the vision was clear to me; transform the customer experience by empowering employees like never before," he said. "I've seen a lot of changes in this industry, but nothing compares to the transformation that we need today. We are building SAGE to lead that transformation."
One change already begun by Sage's founding companies includes embedding up to 40% of its employees within the organizations of premier clients. Nemerofsky said that helps employees equally share a client's commitment to risk management. And by being onsite, Sage employees are ready to solve potential problems – often before they occur.
He said Sage's financial strength will enable it to attract and keep experienced employees, maintain top-tier relationships with suppliers and invest in enterprise-grade technology to track projects, measure effectiveness, respond to emergencies and improve efficiency. New technologies such as drones, automatic bomb detection and facial recognition used to identify "not just the bad guys, but also visiting VIPs." Nemerofsky said.
Kent, Ohio-based Aysco Technology Integration was founded in 1988 by Rod Bragg, now director of operations for Sage. The integrator's a decades-long specialization in the utility industry immediately establishes Sage as a leader in the protection of complex, highly risk-exposed facilities.
Bragg said prior to being acquired by Sage he knew his customers required a forward-thinking approach to security, but he needed more support to grow and provide those innovative and upgraded services.
"I wanted a second act I could be proud of," he said. "Selling to Sage allowed me to continue my leadership in this industry and partner with the kind of resources that would make all the difference," he said.
Aysco acquired Atlanta-based DTS Security in 2019. Former DTS president Rick Leighton, now Sage's director of sales, built a track record for providing entry management solutions for Fortune 100 headquarters.
Matt Bennet, managing partner, Talisman Capital and a Sage board member, said his group looks at an organization's leadership before forming long-term partnerships.
"When the opportunity arose to partner with the entrepreneurial minds behind Sage, our choice was an easy one," he said. "You want to join a ship that intends to be a leader – a group that's going to set the trends for the next 10 to 15 years. I firmly believe Sage is that team."
For more information on Sage Integration, visit the website at http://www.sageintegraton.com. Also visit us on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram.
About Sage Integration
SAGE Integration provides security technology and intelligence to risk-exposed companies. We protect the people, facilities, and reputation of enterprise clients by advancing the intelligence and integration of security technology. By embedding SAGE professionals into the organization of our highly valued clients, our empowered teams transform our client's threat protection footprint by sharing in the responsibility of risk management. While our competitors are waiting for service calls when something breaks, we are actively creating solutions for evolving threats based on our on-the-ground knowledge of their business. SAGE brings the deep commitment of a local provider with the broad reach of a national integrator

New demodulation capabilities offer a deeper signal analysis when using the ThinkRF R5xx0 Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers

OTTAWA, ONTARIO (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
ThinkRF Corp., the leader in software-defined spectrum analysis, today announced the release of a new version of the ThinkRF S240 Real-Time Spectrum Analysis Software. The S240 software now expands its signal analysis capabilities to include signal demodulation. With this new capability, the S240 software extracts the original information-bearing signal from a carrier wave for a deeper signal analysis when using the ThinkRF R5xx0 Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers. This means RF engineers, monitoring program managers, and CTOs have increased functionality and greater coverage for regulatory and intelligence monitoring and telecom deployment optimization.
The ThinkRF S240 software is a simple, intuitive and easy-to-use Windows software application that provides comprehensive data visualization and measurement tools for both spectrum and signal analysis in one application. Thanks to seamless integration with the R5xx0 Spectrum Analyzers, there is no additional set up required.
These signal analysis capabilities are driven by a new user interface that provides the operator with a set of signal processing tools to ensure high signal fidelity for the demodulation process. Also, various signal representations of the demodulated signal are provided to the operator to enhance their decision-making during signal analysis. Furthermore, gapless streaming of IQ data has also been added in support of demodulation, allowing seamless playback of demodulated audio.
"We recognize that our customers need to be able to quickly and easily visualize both the spectrum and signals around them," said Dr. Jasvinder Obhi, ThinkRF's VP, Product Management and Marketing. "That's why we've added these new capabilities to the S240 software, while ensuring our enhanced user interface is incredibly intuitive."
Other features of the updated software include:

Analysis bandwidth: Control using the hardware selective IF bandwidths for better signal-to-noise ratio.

New signal displays: Three different representations of the demodulated signal implemented in the user interface: IQ Constellation, Frequency Domain, Time Domain.

Audio: Demodulated signals (live or from recordings) can be listened to via the Host PC sound card, where the operator can apply the proper audio filter as well as built-in amplification.

Recording and Playback: IQ data streams can be recorded and played back with full demodulation, graphing, and audio support.

The ThinkRF S240 Real-Time Spectrum Analysis Software is available now. For more information, contact sales@thinkrf.com.

Boralex, a major Canadian-based renewable energy company, recently switched their Maximo mobile solution from IBM Maximo Anywhere to InterPro's EZMaxMobile. The key feature that helped drive the switch was EZMaxMobile's ability to work seamlessly online and offline, supported by the recently patented synchronization method.

STONEHAM, MASS. (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
"After reviewing some of the existing pain points and requirements, we were confident that EZMaxMobile could fill the gaps of Anywhere and improve the mobile user experience for Boralex's workforce. Our team made some minor modifications to the application as part of a pilot program with end users. This involved enabling our multi-language support, configuring fingerprint scanning support for their Android devices and other adjustments to the work management related applications," Jack Lee, Managing Partner, InterPro Solutions.
"After an in-depth analysis of the Maximo mobile tools available, we decided to switch to EZMaxMobile to manage our worldwide renewable energy power plants. EZMaxMobile's easy-to-use software, the stability in both online and offline mode and their integrated Maximo inspection module were important features for our workforce," Pierre Bouchard, Director, Operations services.
"We look forward to our continued partnership with Boralex in extending the use and capabilities of Maximo through EZMaxMobile. There is a lot of potential to expand the capabilities of the product, and we have already scheduled future enhancements to their solution," said Eric Delaney, a Senior Software Engineer at InterPro and the lead on the project. "We welcome the opportunity to demonstrate that our Maximo mobile solution is the best in the industry."
Later this year, Boralex's workforce will begin to use the inspection module to perform inspections offline. Their workforce will use inspections for preventative maintenance instead of relying on work order tasks, as well as implementing a pre-maintenance checklist.
EZMaxMobile is a highly flexible solution that mobilizes Maximo in order to simplify processes, save time and money and increase job satisfaction. Learn more about the benefits of switching to EZMaxMobile here.

Regularly $99, the free Martini is provided as a perpetual license that never expires.
Martini is a revolutionary post-production plug-in that brings the creativity of visualization into video editing. Rather than breaking the flow of a work-in-progress with "white-text-on-a-black-background" slugs, Martini easily creates shots that look like scenes that have yet to be shot. Loaded with hundreds of classic and unique shot styles, Martini's easy-to-use interface guides editors through the quick creation of composite shots. Editors can select a style, such as basic over-the-shoulder shots, two and three shots, and close-ups, as well as fight scenes, chase scenes, and other pre-composed multiple shot sequences. Then, editors can choose from hundreds of pre-loaded interiors, exteriors, custom digital location photos, and props.
Martini includes:

Hundreds of Unique Shots: Choose from hundreds of pre-designed, pre-laid out shots. Use the shots as-is or edit them in the Composite Frame so you can get just the right look for your scene. Characters come Standing, Walking, Running, Sitting, Jumping, and Prone plus Phoning, Punching, Driving, Typing, and Lounging.

Great Looking Actors: Martini's great-looking, pre-drawn actors populate each shot style. Add multiple actors to your scene, change their poses, and zoom them in and out on their own unlimited layers. Easily create shots with a wide variety of looks.

Props: Accentuate your scene with Martini's props. Choose from hundreds of everyday objects such as vehicles, furniture, food, and animals.

Hundreds of Backgrounds: Martini includes hundreds of exterior and interior locations that are optimized for storyboarding, providing the perfect background for your pre-vis sequences. Plus, it is easy to add your own digital art and photos.

Integration with Video Editors: Arrange frame objects, crop out what you don't need, and zoom in and out of everything you want in your scene. Then, save your visual ideas right into your Avid Media Composer, Apple Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro, or Magix VEGAS timeline. Whether it's a shot, a sequence or even a pre-composed multi-shot, you can quickly and easily bring those shots right into your project.

Add-on Characters, Props, Locations, and More. On top of all the great-looking graphics that are included free with Martini, over 20 add-on libraries are available for a limited-time sale price of $29.95, dramatically expanding your options for customization.

MESA, ARIZ. (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
Today Cyber Dive, an online platform that connects parents to their children's digital reality, announced the launch of a free service that enables parents to easily view their children's social accounts, understand their online activity and achieve peace of mind—an increasingly relevant service at a time when children are home from school for the foreseeable future.
In response to the coronavirus pandemic, Education Week estimates at least 118,000 U.S public and private schools have closed their doors. As Americans' social distancing escalates in an effort to help contain the spread of COVID-19, school closings leave 52.6 million children to their own devices—both figuratively and literally. Without a clear understanding or timeline of when everyday activities, such as working out of public offices or sending children to school and activities will resume, parents are navigating how to monitor their children's online activity. For many, this is uncharted territory, as children have increased access to and time available for social media.
With Cyber Dive, parents can easily monitor their child's social media activity across popular social media sites including Instagram, Snapchat, VSCO and, by summer 2020, TikTok, Discord, Google, and YouTube. Key features to keep kids safe online include:

Word Cloud: Provides a look into the frequency of words used on social media.

Vibes Meter: Gives an overview of the emotions surrounding a child's activity.

Friends: Showcases the people a child interacts with on social media.

Alerts: Displays activity that might require extra attention.

Posts: Lists the posts a child makes or is tagged in on social media.

Search History (summer 2020): Recent search history across all monitored platforms.

"COVID-19 directly impacts us in many ways, including hunkering down at home with our kiddos for the time being. Although being able to spend more time with them is a positive, we also acknowledge the nuanced challenges we must traverse as parents of digitally connected kids," said Cyber Dive Co-Founder and CEO Jeff Gottfurcht. "As parents of 8- to 15-year-olds, we often wonder, 'What is my kid doing on the internet right now? Who are they interacting with? What videos are they watching? How is what they are seeing impacting how they feel?' If you've ever thought about how you can mitigate the risks your children face on social media, we've taken those ideas and created a free, comprehensive, and easy-to-use tool. It helps keep them safe—and keeps you in the know about what your child is being exposed to and exploring."
Cyber Dive provides information on whom children interact with, how they feel about what they see, what they are searching, and alerts you to anything needing extra attention. It empowers parents to partner with trained analysts to conduct thorough social media audits (coming summer 2020), which dive deep into a child's social media life to uncover things that might be hidden under the surface. These audits search:

Dating Sites Like Bumble or Tinder: Find out whether or not your child is connecting with 18+ men/women on dating websites.

Ghost Accounts (If They Exist): Some children create both "public" and "private" accounts. Children often allow their parents to only view the "public" profile because of its appropriate content.

Cached & Deleted Data Search: Your child may try to delete searches. Cyber Dive may be able to recover some of that deleted information.

Verify Friend Identities: Find out if your child is connected to any fake accounts, which are often created by stalkers or pedophiles to follow and learn about their targets.

Reverse Image Search: Find out if your child's images are being used by someone else on the internet.

Dark Web Search: Rest assured that nothing associated with your child exists where nefarious people lurk.

According to the McAfee's consumer research department, 87% of young people have seen cyberbullying online but most do nothing about it. Ditch the Label published in their bullying survey that 47% of cyberbullying victims will develop social anxiety, 37% will develop depression, and 26% will have suicidal thoughts.
"We've seen that nearly 9 out of 10 kids avoid telling their parents about the negative things they see happening online. This leaves parents struggling to keep up, and oblivious to what's happening beneath the surface," said Cyber Dive Co-Founder and CTO Derek Jackson. "As an intelligence officer, my team's job was to dig through extensive social media data and provide only the most time-sensitive information to the commander to make life-altering decisions. We took that mindset and made you, parents, the commander. We show you what's most important, so you can initiate necessary conversations and directly impact how your child navigates social media."
Parents can sign up for Cyber Dive, free of charge, from any device. Offering a simple, intuitive sign-up process, Cyber Dive makes it easy for any parent or guardian to access the innovative technology.
Cyber Dive was created by Co-Founder and CEO Jeff Gottfurcht and Co-Founder and CTO Derek Jackson, who set out to get a better grasp on social media for families everywhere—including their own. Jackson is the father of one and Gottfurcht is the father of three.
Jackson, an ex-military intelligence officer and Millennial tech entrepreneur, previously served as a Captain in the U.S. Army, where his intelligence work focused on the social media activity of U.S. adversaries. Jackson worked as an intelligence officer for five years and deployed in support of combat operations with 1st Special Forces Group (airborne) to Kuwait, Jordan and Syria.
Gottfurcht, the first person in the world to summit Mt. Everest with Rheumatoid Arthritis, previously worked in Silicon Valley for 14 years as a Vice President at UBS Financial, a global Swiss investment banking firm that provides services in more than 50 countries. Additionally, he was selected as Man of the Year by the United Nations and their International School for the philanthropic work he does speaking around the country, inspiring kids and adults to push through obstacles and achieve success.

Discover the latest advances in microgrid management systems for the energy sector.

JUPITER, FLA. (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
DMG Productions will explore recent developments in energy storage technology on an upcoming episode of Advancements with Ted Danson, scheduled to broadcast 3Q/2020. Check your local listings for more information.
Energy storage can take many forms, including pumped hydro, flywheels, and batteries. Focusing on recent developments in microgrid technology, this segment of Advancements will explore energy storage integrating secondary-use batteries, which are batteries that have been removed from service in Battery Electric Vehicles.
The show will educate about a new energy routing technology that blends and optimizes electrons from any and all sources of energy, which can provide energy off-grid or can supplement the grid. Audiences will see how the Multi-Flex energy routing technology can place everything necessary to manage and store energy into a single cabinet and will learn how batteries for storage can be internal to the cabinet or stored in separate racks.
The show will discover how batteries removed from service in Battery Electric Vehicles have been integrated into energy storage systems and will educate about how this technology can produce smooth and reliable power, utility cost savings, and socially responsible energy.
"Indie Power Systems was the first to integrate secondary-use batteries into a commercial energy storage system. This is both ecologically responsible and can provide the lowest-cost energy storage. To accomplish this, the company designed and built a complete energy management system that includes the software logic, the electronics hardware, and of course the Battery Management System," said Founder and CEO, Steve Tolen.
Highlighting Indie Power Systems' (IPS) Redundant Array of Inexpensive Batteries (RAIB) technology, viewers will see firsthand how the technology allows the blending of multiple battery chemistries into a Hybrid Energy Storage System (HESS), and will learn what makes IPS a leader in battery energy storage.
"Today, batteries are the most prevalent method of energy storage," said DJ Metzer, senior producer for DMG Productions and the Advancements series. "We look forward to exploring how Indie Power Systems optimizes battery storage."
About Indie Power Systems:
Indie Power Systems, Inc. is a leading technology company that designs and builds complete energy management systems.

OxBlue has been awarded a 2019 Good Design award by the Chicago Athenaeum Museum for its patented Cobalt Series enclosure.

ATLANTA (PRWEB) MARCH 25, 2020
OxBlue, an Atlanta-based technology company and the leader in professional construction camera services, has been awarded a 2019 Good Design award by the Chicago Athenaeum Museum for its patented Cobalt Series enclosure. The time-lapse construction camera was created in collaboration with Creature LLC, an award-winning product design firm located in Atlanta, Ga., and was recognized in the Safety and Security category.
When designing the new camera enclosure, there were several unique challenges to overcome. As construction cameras, the system needed to provide high-quality, wide-angle optics for imaging and video. The system had to be designed to withstand harsh job site conditions from Alaska to the Middle-east with built-in environmental controls. It also needed the flexibility to be easily installed virtually anywhere, run efficiently on virtually any power source (including 110v, 220v and 12v solar) and be built for the best wireless connectivity. The final design delivers all of these needs and more, all in an easy-to-install, sleek package.
"The Cobalt Series enclosure is a critical part of the solution that enables job site progress monitoring and reporting for our clients," said Chandler McCormack, CEO of OxBlue. "We're proud of the work the team put into this and grateful for the recognition for what was accomplished."
Good Design is presented by The Chicago Athenaeum, together with The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies as the foremost program that honors and recognizes the best design talent and the best manufacturing worldwide. The 2019 Good Design Jury was held in New York and Los Angeles and was composed of renowned international specialists with wide design experience, guaranteeing the high quality and high level of the competition. The criteria for selection follows the original 1950's program and includes, for instance, the innovation or the functional impact or even the ecological impact of each product selected.
"This year's historic 69th Good Design program," states Christian Narkiewicz-Laine, Museum President, The Chicago Athenaeum, "recognizes the work of thousands of designers and manufacturers worldwide who have successfully undertaken the design challenge to produce the best and most outstanding design products across the globe to our large and expanding global consumers."
Winning products and graphics for 2019 can be viewed at the Museum's websites at http://gooddesign.org For more information on OxBlue and the Cobalt Series camera, visit http://www.oxblue.com.

DroneLogbook software combined with ANAFI platform simplifies drone data logging

PARIS AND GENEVA (PRWEB) MARCH 26, 2020
Parrot, the leading European drone group, announced today the addition of enhanced flight data tracking to Parrot's ANAFI drone through a partnership with DroneLogbook — which will allow pilots to keep track of their equipment's performance, schedule necessary maintenance, as well as record and report all pertinent information to comply with FAA regulation.
Parrot's ANAFI and ANAFI Thermal drones provide an ultra-compact tool for professionals, helping them gain new vantage points to make informed decisions with higher precision and efficiency using the drone's aerial insights.
DroneLogbook is a flight logging service that provides secure data storage. Its software, accessible through online software and mobile apps, allows pilots to automatically record crucial flight data – including flight time, GPS and altimeter data, weather conditions, airspace status updates and more. DroneLogbook tracks all drone operations to allow for the creation of reports in seconds.
Thanks to a native integration in Parrot flying app, ANAFI users will be able to synchronize all their flight data automatically and seamlessly on DroneLogbook servers directly from the FreeFlight 6 application, as soon as the drone has landed.
This one-stop-shop solution is expected to vastly improve ROI for commercial drone operators and reduce data processing time to help streamline necessary processes like compliance reporting, mission planning and drone inspection.
At Parrot and DroneLogbook, we value customers data and respect privacy. In addition to this technical partnership, Parrot is also really proud to adopt the GUTMA standard for all its flights data. The Global UTM Association (GUTMA) is a non-profit consortium of worldwide Unmanned Aircraft Systems Traffic Management (UTM) stakeholders. Its purpose is to foster the safe, secure and efficient integration of drones in national airspace systems. Its mission is to support and accelerate the transparent implementation of globally interoperable UTM systems. GUTMA members collaborate remotely.
"Our partnership with DroneLogbook is positioned to significantly streamline the various processes and reports that are required from many of our enterprise ANAFI users maintaining large fleets— fulfilling a customer demand for a complete enterprise-grade flight logging solution," said Jerome Bouvard, Director of Strategic Partnership of Parrot.
"This integration with Parrot provides the DroneLogbook ecosystem with another industry leading drone manufacturer to support commercial drone operations. The depth of this integration results in one of the easiest, most efficient compliance workflows in the industry, greatly improving ROI," said Yves Jusot, CEO & Co-founder.
Through its SDK Partner program, Parrot is working to create a global ecosystem of drone apps to serve the unique and ever-evolving needs of its enterprise and professional users.
ANAFI drone users can now download a free 2-month trial of DroneLogbook's software, DroneLogbook Companion, using the FreeFlight 6 piloting app from Parrot. The software can be downloaded through GooglePlay and the App Store. After the trial, DroneLogbook offers three subscription plans: Free, Professional ($6.95/month) and Enterprise ($19.95). DroneLogbook also offers a private plan for large organizations.
Users with privacy concerns will be permitted to access DroneLogbook using their own server through the FreeFlight 6 app by selecting "custom URL" upon sign-in, rather than "DLB account." These users are still able to synchronize their flights and view them on the DroneLogbook platform.
For more information on Parrot and its ANAFI drone, visit Parrot.com.
To try out ANAFI or ANAFI Thermal in your business environment, apply to Parrot's Enterprise Loan Program by filling out this form with as much details as possible about the intended business use.

Research Demonstrates Value of Experiences and Evolving Strategies to Engage Members and Constituents

AUSTIN, TEXAS (PRWEB) MARCH 26, 2020
Personify, Inc. ("Personify"), the market-leading provider of technology solutions for associations, nonprofit and event professionals, today released findings from its new research, New Decade: New Experiences, New Challenges, which focuses on the role of experience in shaping the constituent relationship with an organization and the challenges that organizations face in the market today. The research is based on survey questions that were fielded throughout 2019 with more than 1,000 members in the United States.
Personify explored key questions about the role of experience and discovered:

The critical role of a compelling, and relevant, experience in acquiring new constituents;

how experience continues to drive evolution of trusted engagement methods and

propel new ones forward; and

experience ecosystems and how an organization's technologies must provide value

independently but also together.

Personify's findings also found that:

70% of Generation Z prioritize stability and security in a job over passion and flexibility.

Millennial members were 16 percentage points more likely to say being part of an association is growing in importance.

African American members surveyed were significantly higher than average to agree that being part of an association is more important than it used to be, at 66%.

Across all groups, constituents report that email is an effective way to reach them, with a large majority (82%) of those surveyed ranking email first or second.

80% of constituents told Personify that they like or love personal emails from their association and three-quarters have a favorable opinion of e-newsletters.

When asked to indicate whether an individual's social media usage had grown in the last two years, Facebook (40%), Twitter (39%) and Instagram (44%) all saw adoption grow.

Overall, 45% of members told us they liked or loved receiving a phone call from their association, with 51% showing the same level of appreciation for text messages.

However, the outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) has presented an entirely new challenge to individuals, families, organizations and governments around the globe. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused systematic change across all aspects of society, with association and event professionals being among the most impacted.
While essential to maintain global health and safety, event cancellations and extreme social distancing have limited engagement efforts for many organizations. Personify's research finds that there's an opportunity for organizations to provide digital connections and touchpoints that can supplement the lack of interaction that would typically take place at work.
"The findings of the research, which were fielded before Coronavirus became the global pandemic we're seeing today, suggest that delivering an experience to constituents is the path to long-term success in the 2020s and beyond," said Amanda Myers, Vice President of Product and research author. "Our survey respondents told us time and again that a mix of digital channels was important in keeping them engaged with an organization. Now, as we look to navigate these uncertain times, delivering an omnichannel experience isn't just important—it's critical."
An on-demand webinar, hosted by Personify, explores the findings of the research in more detail. Association, event and nonprofit professionals will leave with an understanding of how to apply these findings to the challenges they face today.
###

"The findings of the research, which were fielded before Coronavirus became the global pandemic we're seeing today, suggest that delivering an experience to constituents is the path to long-term success in the 2020s and beyond," said Amanda Myers, Vice President of Product and research author.

ancora Software continues to enhance their industry disruptive Business Process Automation software by announcing a second US patent issued on their Intelligent Document Classification and Advanced Data Capture solutions.

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) MARCH 26, 2020
ancora Software, the industry leader of Business Process Automation including Intelligent Document Classification and Advanced Data Capture solutions is very happy to announce the issue of a new patent (US 10,607,115) for automatic generation of training data for its previously patented Intelligent Document Classification solution.. This new patent addresses a method of automatic acquisition of training data for any document type with minimal or no human intervention.
ancora's Document Classification uses a variety of machine learning algorithms and artificial intelligence to address classification and categorization of documents in such diverse applications as Accounts Payable, Sales Order Automation, Mortgage Loan processing, Auto Dealer Loan processing, Mail Room, Medical Records and data management. This breadth of applications is the result of optimally designed features and algorithms that utilize all available information from the documents to be classified such as the size, the layout, logos or pictures, content and any other attributes of the document, just like a human would do if they were scanning documents on their desk and identifying them. ancora also supports connections to downstream systems to validate and verify the results of classification. The software is designed with the degree of automation that supports the ever-increasing levels of simplicity for the users. ancora's systems take advantage of vector (first generation) PDF documents to bypass OCR and provide unprecedented accuracy of data classification and capture. This results in very high labor savings achieved in all the steps of the document processing workflow. Our largest customer is a financial institution processing over 35 million pages per year with over 900 document types, we are classifying those documents at 98% accuracy.
"Our document classification automation reduces hundreds of work hours associated with both configuration and production workflows and produces superior results compared to other vendor classification solutions by leveraging machine learning, said Noel Flynn, CEO at ancora software. While rules-based approaches are useful for a small number of static document types, only learning-based automated classification offers a solution for more complex classification and separation needs. ancora Document Classification software removes any need to manually identify first, middle and last pages since it analyzes the output of content classification to automatically detect and create rules.
ancoraDocs is available either on premise or as a true multi-tenant cloud service hosted by ancora on Microsoft Azure. It can also be deployed as a hybrid solution, utilizing zero footprint browser-based clients. "ancoraDocs is designed to bring simplicity to a market where applications have historically been complex and overpriced, difficult to configure, install, use, and maintain," said Nick Bova, VP of Sales at ancora Software. "It can be deployed in a matter of hours or days, not the weeks or months you often see with traditional capture. This helps users start realizing their benefits sooner and produces a faster time to ROI. In addition, it opens the market to SMB organizations, which have historically not been able to take advantage of automated document capture due to the significant costs of getting started."

Contributing to the development of TvStartup's features for live broadcasting, scheduled playlists and creating video-on-demand libraries on popular platforms like Roku, Fire TV and Apple TV, the boys now aim to help schools and congregations stay connected amid Coronavirus shutdowns.

ABILENE, TEXAS (PRWEB) MARCH 26, 2020
As schools and businesses across the country are closing down in light of social distancing policies during the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic, organizations seek ways to enable workers and students to remotely access the video resources necessary for their ongoing training and education.
TvStartup Inc. specializes in video technology solutions that enable anyone to launch their own independent online TV channel and expand audience reach beyond social platforms like YouTube to millions watching on living room TV's.
The technology, created by TvStartup's development team with contributions from the founder's three school-aged sons who have learned to code, is helping organizations and creators reach a wider audience through the use of various devices and apps, including Smart TV platforms such as Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, and more. The platform is now being adapted to help schools, churches and other organizations continue education and stay connected remotely during closures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The boys involved (now aged 12, 13, and 15) began learning programming skills 7 years ago, making contributions to the development process behind a number of the platform's available features and have been using their close proximity to the technology world and the lead development team at their father's company as a learning opportunity to advance their education in coding.
As a family business, TvStartup CEO and Founder, Brock Fisher, says he "understands the importance of providing children with consistency and structure, especially during unprecedented times."
He added, "the kids have had a unique opportunity while learning to code to contribute alongside the TvStartup development team to help advance the service's capabilities in providing content creators with greater control over the growth of their online audience and options for easy distribution to connected TV platforms."
School closures could last throughout the rest of the regular school year. During this time, it's imperative that students, congregation members and workers (especially children) can continue to access educational content and stay connected with their organizations with streaming and on-demand video content.
The platform enables organizations to live stream virtual events and share recorded video content in a scheduled or on-demand format through their own Smart TV channels, allowing viewers to enjoy the programming from the comfort of their living rooms on their at-home TV sets.
Students can use their in-home TV sets to watch on-demand educational videos and live broadcasts produced by educators and content creators. This allows organizations to reach their audience on the devices they use most often, giving them a way to enjoy this streaming content directly on their living room TV's.
"The High School Narrative's collaboration with the outstanding staff at TvStartup has generated tremendous success for our company." said Mary Rossignol, Founder & CEO of THSN Media Group, who launched The High School Narrative using the TvStartup platform, a channel aimed at showcasing the stories of high school students across the country. "Without their team's commitment and superior guidance our apps (Roku / iOS / Amazon Fire TV) would not be as dynamic."
Educators and organizations seeking to continue the education of their students and stay connected with their audience impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak can leverage Internet TV solutions to extend their reach and ensure no one gets left behind. Schedule a live demo to learn more.
About TvStartup Inc.

The International Society of Automation (ISA) recently served as the expert partner for an independent report from Newsweek Vantage on cyber risks to critical infrastructure.

DURHAM, N.C. (PRWEB) MARCH 26, 2020
The International Society of Automation (ISA) recently served as the expert partner for an independent report from Newsweek Vantage on cyber risks to critical infrastructure.
The report, titled "Weathering the Perfect Storm: Securing the Cyber-Physical Systems of Critical Infrastructure," surveyed 415 executives at critical infrastructure organizations to learn whether they are taking a holistic approach to security for operations technology (OT) and information technology (IT). Among other takeaways, the survey found that a holistic approach is a priority for most—and that more than a third of respondents said a cyber breach was the motivating factor.
ISA is the industry expert on standards for automation cybersecurity for OT systems. The ISA/IEC 62443 Series of Standards is the world's only consensus-based series of standards on automation cybersecurity.
"We're proud to provide guidance as an expert partner with Newsweek Vantage on this independent report," said Mary Ramsey, ISA executive director. "The security of critical infrastructure is complex by nature, and we believe research like this is an important part of understanding where the industry can improve as a whole."
Other key findings from the report include:

IT and OT still don't play well together at many organizations, despite years of effort. Nearly a third of respondents said the primary obstacle is cultural—in other words, that employees are resistant to change.

Nearly every executive surveyed said their organization had experienced a security breach within the last year. Almost two-thirds said IT systems were the source of vulnerability leading to at least one of their incidents. A third also attributed their vulnerability to a lack of IT/OT integration, and a quarter added that a lack of secure physical access controls contributed to system vulnerabilities as well.

Most organizations are at least partway along the path to IT/OT convergence. 68 percent of respondents said their organizations have integrated some of their OT, IT, and physical systems, and are still working on others. Far fewer—20 percent—have already integrated everything, and fewer still—only 11 percent—have not integrated anything.

Eric Cosman, a consulting engineer and the 2020 ISA president, as well as Steve Mustard, an independent consultant and the incoming 2021 ISA president, also contributed to the report as subject-matter experts.
"It was a privilege to represent ISA and the automation community in providing input to the Newsweek Vantage report," Cosman said. "Vehicles such as this provide us with an opportunity to reach a much broader audience and raise the awareness of the risks faced by our critical infrastructure. Asset owners must take the time to fully understand the consequence component of this risk and plan their response accordingly using standards, practices, and other resources available to them."
"The Newsweek Vantage report is the end product of an important piece of research, of which I am very proud to have been a part," Mustard says. "ISA has long understood the risks to critical infrastructure from cybersecurity incidents, and having the opportunity to be part of this work has allowed us to share our message much further. Although the report shows we still have a long way to go before industry fully embraces the challenge, it provides clear evidence of the need to do so."
Improving automation cybersecurity across all industries is a central part of ISA's mission. It created the ISA Global Cybersecurity Alliance (isa.org/ISAGCA) to advance cybersecurity readiness and awareness in manufacturing and critical infrastructure facilities and processes. It also offers a suite of automation cybersecurity training, including certificate programs.
The full Newsweek Vantage report is available for download here.

Smart2Pay, the company with the world's largest coverage of online alternative payment solutions, has added Huabei credit solution to its 200+ payment methods portfolio.

Huabei is Ant Financial's virtual credit card for its Chinese users. Some internal shareholders estimated that, of Alipay's 900 million Chinese users, more than half have created Huabei accounts. Huabei literally means 'just spend' and is generally perceived as a microlender.

As well, when Huabei is used to shop, the user must return the amount of the payment on the 9th of the next month. There is an interest-free period of up to 41 days. Merchants offering Huabei can see conversion increase by up to 40%.
Huabei was launched in April 2015 by Ant Financial as a way for users of its wallet solution Alipay to fund purchases on ecommerce platforms run by Ant Financial's affiliate, Alibaba group, such as Tmall and Taobao. Huabei's main user base is made up of individuals born after the 80s and 90s, accounting for around 80% of the total users. Since Huabei's launch, Ant Financial has been expanded the service to more online and offline merchants.
James Flinterman, CEO of Smart2Pay: We are proud to add Huabei via Alipay to our already extensive Chinese payment methods portfolio. We constantly improve and expand our services in direct relation to market dynamics. We are confident that, with this latest addition, our Merchants and partners will successfully expand further their business in a very digitally-oriented and lucrative market like China.
About Ant Financial's Alipay
Alipay is a mobile payment method founded by Jack Ma's Alibaba Group in 2004 and which allows users to create a digital wallet to store, top up and pay online or in store for products and services. It is one of the most popular methods of payment in China and is also available in many Asian markets, as well as in Europe, US and Canada.
Ant Financial's chairman and CEO Eric Jing said on Alibaba's 2019 Investor Day, held in Hangzhou, that Alipay (900m users) and its international e-wallet partners (300m users) have collectively served around 1.2 billion users worldwide.

ZeBrand announces the official launch of its A.I. brand identity automation service for startups and small businesses.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) MARCH 26, 2020
ZeBrand announces the launch of its web-based platform, zebranding.com, designed to automate brand identity creation for startups and small businesses through their proprietary artificial intelligence-based algorithm.
The company solves a crucial pain point for businesses by offering a new way for startups to generate complete branding toolkits, onboarding packages, and commercial visuals, in record time, and supports business owners and startup founders who have a limited budget to hire a branding agency which could easily cost between $5,000 and $200,000.
ZeBrand gives, both, startups and established companies on more modest budgets a way to bypass expensive branding agencies and brand designers in mere minutes, through their refined A.I. algorithm.
"Most companies are aware of the importance of good branding, however, many lack the necessary resources to execute complete brand identity, which is then reflected in their growth," says Ryo Kikuchi, Chief Executive Officer at ZeBrand. "We would like to make whole brand development and identity easy and available for everyone, regardless of their background or budget."
The platform offers the benefits of a sophisticated algorithm built on the backs of close to 25,000 other brand identities that have been developed, collected and crunched into ZeBrand's artificial intelligence.
Features and benefits of ZeBrand include:

An easy quiz that helps you identify your brand's core strengths and values

Complete brand kit creation within 10 minutes

Immediate imagery to reflect your brand's personality

Immediate web templates

Upcoming features:

Create your own product/merchandise mock-ups

On-demand education on effective branding for non-designers

The ZeBrand platform is currently available to businesses looking to develop their brand's identity at zebranding.com.
About ZeBrand
A logo or website template on its own is not enough to make people buy, invest or join. Those assets, alone, do not scale beyond what they are designed for. ZeBrand kits go much further, giving companies all they need to build a brand and scale it in a consistent and impactful way across everything companies do; from cultivating a company's culture, values and imagery, to websites, products, pitch decks, and business cards. ZeBrand offers companies and organizations a complete, authentic brand identity and message built to successfully scale.

TORONTO (PRWEB) MARCH 27, 2020
Krow Software, the service experience platform developed to build long-term customer relationships through improved customer experiences and better services delivery, today announced new solutions and features as part of the latest release.
Summary highlights of new and expanded features include:
Project Manager Experience
Now Project Managers can create and maintain sophisticated client projects by adding multiple project or task templates in the order specified to stitch together the creation of a project. Additionally templates can be added after project creation to expand projects with additional phases as an example.
New functionality to create recurring tasks now let managers easily create project tasks that repeat during the project lifecycle and need to be scheduled and tracked for resource availability such as a weekly client meeting or weekly training.
The new project board view enables users the ability to view and complete project tasks by defined project phases. An example would be a software implementation with defined task phases including kick-off, requirements gathering, configuration, testing, training, and deployment phases, all delivered in an easy to understand and use drag-drop project kanban board.
Consultant Experience
A new Chrome Extension enables consultants the ability to instantly view, search, and take action upon project tasks without needing to navigate away from a current web page while performing project work.
A new Timesheet Lightning Component is now available to add to any page layout to easily track time without requiring the users to navigate away to the timesheet page. The new timesheet component can be added to any page including projects, tasks, or even support cases to tracking time. The component can be added as a global action, making it available at the top of the navigation bar permanently.
Enhanced timesheet functionality includes the ability to recall submitted timesheets that have yet to be approved to immediately make changes and re-submit. This new functionality is configurable to turn on or off for a subset of users as desired.
Customer Experience
An updated project status report available to customers now displays additional project insight including the ability to define any configurable fields for display including custom fields. Project Statues reports are available to customers online or delivered by email.
A brand new external site available for customers to collaborate on projects is now available requiring no license or login for customer access. Customers can collaborate on task completion, viewing Gantt charts, access project files, and update project notes all from a dedicated project portal.
Service Leadership Experience
A new survey API enables service leaders the ability to drag and drop business rules using Salesforce Process Builder to define when surveys should automatically be distributed to customers.
New analytic reports for services leaders include the new NPS Survey Report and the new Resource Capacity Planning report. The NPS Survey report displays customer NPS trending analysis to gage the health of customer implementations. The Resource Capacity Planning report enables service leaders to forecast supply and demand of resources including projects still in planning.

Cyber Chasse Inc. helps clients build new revenue streams and deliver incredible experience by utilizing the capabilities of cloud solutions.

TEMPLE TERRACE, FLA. (PRWEB) MARCH 27, 2020
Cyber Chasse Inc., a leading provider of IT consulting and managed services in the USA announced that it is offering businesses of all sizes and industries to get strategic insight from highly talented expert consultants. The long-time IT consultant will operate affiliated businesses Cyber Chasse Academy and Cyber Chasse Staffing with a primary focus on the USA.

Anil Kumar Jayaprakash, Founder and Director of Cyber Chasse Inc. said, "We have developed a friendly relationship with the Fortune 500 companies over the past couple of years. Our services will provide a perfect environment for IT professionals seeking experience in cutting edge technologies like – Splunk, ETL, AWS DevOps, Salesforce and more".
The global demand for qualified and experienced IT professionals has outpaced the available talent. "We have noticed that there is no structured process for developing IT consulting in our local community i.e. Tampa area. We considered it an opportunity to provide the organizations in the US with effective IT consulting and staffing solutions" says Nidhi Thakkar, co-founder of Cyber Chasse Inc.
Cyber Chasse has strong expertise in market models across a wide range of industries from healthcare, engineering, banking, manufacturing, infrastructure, etc. We provide low-cost consulting, which ultimately fulfills the client requirements. The recent developments in consulting have contributed to the shift in the demand of clients for consulting services. 
In the support of economic growth, we focus on three main approaches – consulting, recruitment, workforce management, and staffing. Over a couple of years, the annual reports of Cyber Chasse showed a positive impact on the US economy. The IT consulting industry in the US has grown by 8% last year to breach the $100 billion market. Just 3 years ago, the industry was with less than $60 billion. These changes are largely due to the change in the investment structure that caused an increasing demand for IT consulting companies. 
Following the trend, IT consulting has become the largest service line in the USA, making 26% of the fee income. "Our upward trajectory and growth is no doubt a testament to the team of Cyber Chasse Inc.", says Anil Jayaprakash.

TriageLogic is implementing quickly deployable solutions for healthcare organizations to set up their doctors and medical staff for remote patient visits during the Covid-19 crisis. The solution works with the Hospital's own EMR or Salesforce CRM. The solution does not require a mobile application download and allows doctors to bill for medical visits.

JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA (PRWEB) MARCH 28, 2020
TriageLogic, a leader in remote patient communication and nurse triage, announces a quick to deploy and easy to use telehealth system with a virtual call center that hospitals, medical organizations, and health centers can use for patient care during the COVID-19 crisis.
As health organizations adapt to the coronavirus pandemic, they are looking for a system that can be quickly deployed for staff and nurses to work remotely to set up doctor visits, answer patient questions, evaluate their symptoms and determine who needs further evaluation by a doctor. Team members can communicate with their physicians and set up two-way video visits using secure, HIPAA compliant texting options that do not require the use of a mobile application. This allows the remote hospital associates to set up and coordinate telehealth visits for doctors instead of in-person visits.
Nurses can also be included in the solution by having Covid-19 and other medical protocols available in a web-based system. The information from the phone call can be exported to the Hospital's EMR system or be integrated with Salesforce.
TriageLogic can deploy the following solutions related to sending staff home:

    Cloud-based HIPAA compliant call center telephony system for coordination of remote staff

    Phone System to connect remote workers with queueing and full contact center capability

    COVID-19 Nurse Triage Protocols to be used with your current EMR or CRM such as Salesforce

    Web-based Triage Software with COVID-19 and other protocols

    Coordination of telemedicine visits between non-clinical, nurses, and doctors in client EMR

    TriageLogic assists in recommending efficient workflow and implementation of two-way video visits

Additional solutions such as a fully staffed Covid-19 hotline and remote patient monitoring is also available.
"TriageLogic was able to set up a Telehealth system within a couple of days for our nurses and doctors to work remotely and continue their medical visits," Melinda, Director of PPM Business Operations for a large Children's Hospital.

LITTLE ROCK, ARK. (PRWEB) MARCH 29, 2020
Mainstream Technologies today announced that it has successfully completed the MSPAlliance's MSP Verify Program (MSPCV) certification and SOC 2 Type 2. The MSPCV is based on the 10 control objectives of the Unified Certification Standard for Cloud & MSPs (UCS) and is the oldest certification program for cloud computing and managed services providers. Mainstream's SOC 2 Type 2 audit was based on the UCS as well as the Trust Services Criteria for Security and the Additional Criteria for Availability and Confidentiality (TSP section 100A – 2017).
The MSPCV was the first of its kind created specifically for the managed services and cloud industry. Every certification comes with a written report with the entire process documented, validated and signed by a 3rd party accounting firm. The MSPCV has been reviewed by governmental agencies and regulatory bodies across the globe and is used and accepted in 5 continents around the world.
"The MSPCV certification is a rigorous certification process that benchmarks and verifies the quality of the company providing cloud and/or managed services," said Charles Weaver, MSPAlliance CEO. "We are very proud to have Mainstream Technologies as a member of this elite community of cloud and MSPs."
John Burgess, President of Mainstream added: "We at Mainstream believe that strong policies implemented through the consistent performance of best practice procedures allows us to provide the highest quality and most secure services to our customers. We are proud to receive this independent validation of the strength of our policies and procedures."
MSP Verify Program
The UCS consists of 10 control objectives and underlying controls that constitute crucial building blocks of a successful managed services (and cloud computing) practice. Once the provider's organization has completed all MSPCV documentation on all applicable control objectives (with the assistance of MSPAlliance's readiness assessments, gap analysis, helpful templates and consulting) the results are then examined by an independent third-party accounting firm for verification and signing of a public facing report
As with any other substantive certification of this type, the MSPCV certification must be renewed annually. The MSPCV was the first certification created specifically for the managed services and cloud industry. The MSPCV has been reviewed by governmental agencies and regulatory bodies across the globe and is used and accepted in 5 continents around the world.
Customers who select a company that is part of the MSPCV can also rest assured that their IT solution provider has met and exceeded the following standards dealing with:
● Objective 1: Governance,
● Objective 2: Policies and Procedures,
● Objective 3: Confidentiality and Privacy,
● Objective 4: Change Management,
● Objective 5: Service Operations Management,
● Objective 6: Information Security,

Leading home care software releases feature to help agencies screen caregivers for COVID-19 exposure prior to each visit

WACO, TEXAS (PRWEB) MARCH 30, 2020
AxisCare has announced the release of their COVID-19 mobile screening feature, Fit For Duty. After consulting with the top home care law firm in the United States, AxisCare created the feature to provide agencies with a way to help clients remain safe by monitoring their caregivers' exposure to COVID-19. If risk of exposure is suspected, alerts are immediately sent directly to the agency where they can respond as necessary.
The mobile app feature assists agencies with screening caregivers for exposure to coronavirus/COVID-19 by prompting them to respond to two questions related to COVID-19 exposure when they clock in to each visit. Agencies across the country have already started using the feature to assess risk and protect themselves from further liability.
"Family Resource Home Care has enabled the new Fit For Duty feature for all of our caregivers. We appreciate that this added function enables our team to be more proactive in protecting our clients. For many clients, our services are needed now more than ever," says Jason Wiberg, CFO of Family Resource Home Care. "With Fit For Duty, we can deploy our caregivers more confidently into client homes with added assurance that self-screening has occurred. This innovation is yet another example of how AxisCare is able to evolve quickly to offer solutions to our industry."
"The Fit for Duty feature and its screening questions were created following the recommendation and guidance of the top home care law firm in the US. Our hope is that this feature will not only reduce liability for agencies by keeping their patients and caregivers safe, but also contribute to slowing the spread of the Coronavirus," says Todd Allen, AxisCare's CEO.
So far, over 20,000 screens have been completed using the Fit for Duty mobile app feature. The adoption rate continues to rise rapidly as agencies understand the importance of tracking caregivers' COVID-19 exposure.

Resources Focus on Managing Supply Shortages, Setting Up Emergency Overflow Facilities and Maintaining Credentialing Compliance

LOUISVILLE, COLO. (PRWEB) MARCH 30, 2020
With cases of COVID-19 steadily rising throughout the United States, healthcare organizations are pressed to cope with a host of new challenges. In response, healthcare supply chain technology leader Global Healthcare Exchange, LLC (GHX) has launched the COVID-19 Information Center to help organizations access the data and information needed to help serve patients and protect staff during the evolving pandemic.
"As the leading convener of providers and suppliers, GHX is in a unique position to help healthcare organizations keep pace with heightened demands during this critically imperative time," said Bruce Johnson, president & CEO, GHX. "Our team mobilized to create a detailed resource center to answer the call for timely, accurate information and actionable tools. We believe knowledge-sharing and open access to data will be key elements in managing through this crisis."
Navigating Supply Shortages and Identifying Alternative Products
With increasingly limited inventory of essential medical products such as personal protective equipment (PPE), GHX has developed a Critical Supply Reference List to help providers identify supplies and potential alternatives, as well as provide suppliers with greater visibility into the fluctuating demand for products. In reference to McKinsey & Company's report, COVID-19 Crisis: US Healthcare Provider and Payer Preparedness, GHX's list includes categories such as PPE, Medical Equipment, Disinfection Consumables/Biohazardous Waste Management and Drugs/Medical Consumables and is being continually updated.
Additionally, GHX is offering complimentary access through April 30, 2020 to Lumere's evidence-based research on drugs and devices, including a quick reference list of COVID-19 related supplies with potential shortages. Lumere is a leading provider of evidence-based data and analytics solutions that enable healthcare organizations to build clinically integrated supply chains and optimize medication formulary management.
Setting up Emergency Overflow Facilities
As healthcare providers move quickly to set up emergency overflow facilities to continue to treat patients in a safe environment, GHX has formulated a process to expedite onboarding for new care sites to the GHX network to help ensure products from suppliers reach the new location quickly. GHX is also processing new facility creation requests after hours and over weekends to minimize delays.
Maintaining Compliance with Vendor Credentialing
To help suppliers comply with greater limitations on hospital access and additional credentialing measures, GHX is closely monitoring changes. A template for hospitals and health systems has been created to aid in the formation of new policies as well as an expedited process for updating existing vendor access policies to help ensure patients, hospital personnel and supplier representatives' safety.
"GHX is committed to playing a leadership role in healthcare's response to the COVID-19 crisis by rolling out a variety of resources in the days and weeks ahead, including webinars with key industry associations and provider organizations, online forums to enable our customers to communicate with one another and with our company experts, as well as other educational sessions," said Johnson.

About GHX
Building on decades of collaboration between providers, manufacturers, distributors and other industry stakeholders, Global Healthcare Exchange, LLC (GHX) is leading the charge in helping organizations run the new business of healthcare.

With Safety Net Providers across the country on the front lines of combatting COVID-19 among underserved populations, The National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) and the National Association of Free & Charitable Clinics (NAFC) have partnered with non-profit technology organization, CareMessage, to encourage usage of CMLight, a COVID-19 communication tool for patients and staff available at no cost.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) MARCH 30, 2020
As COVID-19 continues to disrupt millions of lives across the country, the weight of its impact is being felt the hardest on the underserved members of our society, the 27.5 million uninsured and 72.4 million individuals on Medicaid. Chronic health conditions like diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease are more prevalent among underserved populations putting them at higher risk for serious complications from coronavirus. Safety Net Providers are the front lines of COVID-19 response, with Community Health Centers (CHCs) serving over 29 million underserved patients in more than 12,000 urban and rural communities and Free and Charitable Clinics caring for an additional 2 million patients across 1,400 facilities.
As The National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), the leading national advocacy group for community-based health centers, works tirelessly to support health centers in securing emergency funding and essential medical supplies to continue operating and providing essential healthcare services to their communities, it has also recognized the unique benefits of telehealth during this time. In particular, NACHC has encouraged usage of mobile messaging solutions with texting being the most effective and lowest cost communication channel to reach lower income and less educated populations at scale. Similarly, the National Association of Free & Charitable Clinics (NAFC) has endorsed the importance of regular communication through texting from clinics to keep patients and staff informed of key COVID-19 developments.
To support health centers in combating coronavirus, NACHC and NAFC have partnered with non-profit technology organization, CareMessage, a mobile messaging solution designed especially for safety net providers. Due to the growing need across the country, CareMessage is offering CMLight, a COVID-19 communication tool for patients and staff, at no cost to Safety Net Providers for at least 60 days during the course of the virus outbreak. The need to quickly disseminate information to entire patient populations has skyrocketed, and the CareMessage team responded to customer needs by partnering with them to create patient and staff messages that supplement their ongoing efforts. They have made their messaging library publicly available for free, which includes information about hand washing, asking patients to call before coming in if they are experiencing symptoms, medication refill reminders, information on telemedicine availability, and additional information for high-risk patients.
As the largest non-profit patient engagement organization in the United States focused solely on underserved populations, CareMessage has supported its CHC, Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and Free Clinic customers in sending over 3.2 million COVID-19 related messages to date, on topics ranging from prevention, patient education, food distribution, clinic announcements and more.
"CareMessage provides a resource for health centers to reach their patients via texting during this time when everyone is asking to stay isolated as much as possible," says Jason Patnosh, Associate VP of Partnership and Resource Development at NACHC. "This service, and the opportunity to engage in a simplified platform, will allow more health centers to engage with their patients. The health center movement continues to adapt to changing situations, and will always be ready to innovate on how they reach their patients."
"We are so thankful for our continued partnership with CareMessage, especially during this pandemic during which social distancing is so important," says Nicole Lamoureux, NAFC President and CEO. "Having the ability to keep the lines of communication open with our patients through technology like the CareMessage platform is crucial to making sure communities throughout the country have continued access to the care they need."
"Cecilia and I co-founded CareMessage with the explicit and exclusive purpose of serving the most vulnerable patients. That need is no more acute than right at this moment," says Vineet Singal, Co-Founder and CEO of CareMessage. "As the largest patient engagement platform for the underserved nationally, we are honored to partner with NACHC and NAFC, and lead the way in supporting as many safety-net organizations nationwide that need to communicate critical health information with their patients."
Through CareMessage's free messaging platform offering and the extensive combined national reach of NACHC, NAFCC and CareMessage, the three healthcare non-profits strive to make a significant positive impact together in supporting the Safety Net Provider ecosystem as they continue to care for the most vulnerable patients during COVID-19.
About NACHC
Founded in 1971, the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) serves as the national health care advocacy organization for America's medically underserved and uninsured and the community health centers that serve as their health care home. NACHC works in conjunction with state and regional primary care associations, health center controlled networks and other public and private sector organizations to expand health care access to all in need.

The Foureyes Relief Package provides free sales support software to help car dealerships maintain business operations.

PORTLAND, ORE. (PRWEB) MARCH 30, 2020
Foureyes, the sales intelligence software company, announced the launch of the Foureyes Relief Package. The Foureyes Relief Package was developed to give auto dealerships the sales support they need today. The Relief Package is free for car dealers until May 31, 2020.
Known for its patented technology that collects user-level data to improve the sales experience, Foureyes worked closely with automotive partners and dealerships to develop the Foureyes Relief Package in response to the coronavirus outbreak. "We've known that car shoppers have moved online, but this situation pushed dealers past the tipping point towards an urgency to understand what customers were doing on their websites," says David Steinberg, inventor and CEO of Foureyes. "The Foureyes Relief Package was developed to support auto dealerships by providing that visibility and is designed to improve efficiency and deliver wins to sales teams."
The goal of the Foureyes Relief Package is to enable dealerships to get visibility into which customers are still interested and actively shopping online, and use this information to dynamically share updates about each lead's preferred inventory. Setup is simple, requiring just a single line of script on a dealership's website. The Foureyes Relief Package is available through May 31, 2020 to help auto dealerships navigate the challenges ahead.
With the Foureyes Relief Package, car dealers can:

Make every conversation count. User-level tracking records everything customers do on a dealership's website, so dealers can clearly see who is interested and have more informed sales conversations with leads.

Keep leads up-to-date. Personalized email automation makes sure interested shoppers are kept in the know regarding incentives, price drops, and changes to inventory.

Do more with less. Keep the dealership's virtual showroom running in high gear, regardless of changes to business operations.

Steinberg goes on to say, "We will all get through this. There's not a business in America that is not going to have some battle wounds, but we are committed to working together and coming out of this stronger, with better processes and more efficiency."
Auto dealerships can get the Foureyes Relief Package free through May 31, 2020 by enrolling online. To learn more about Foureyes sales support software, businesses can schedule a demo or contact Foureyes at (971) 352-3494.

Artificial Intelligence and Critical Chain Project Management Combine to Schedule Large, Complex Operations Efficiently

SAN MATEO, CALIF. (PRWEB) MARCH 30, 2020
Stottler Henke Associates, Inc. (http://www.stottlerhenke.com) today announced the award of a contract with the U.S. Navy to customize and demonstrate a critical chain and critical path scheduling capability for surface ship maintenance operations. Stottler Henke's solution is based on its Aurora intelligent planning and scheduling system, combined with built-in Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) capabilities.
During the project, a series of demonstrations and Government tests will verify the system's ability to solve large, resource-constrained scheduling problems, generate numerous reports and displays to provide an integrated picture of the Navy's surface ship maintenance demands, support tens of thousands of users, and provide system administration tools. If the evaluation is successful, the Navy is expected to contract Stottler Henke to develop and deploy a customized, operational version of the system at naval shipyards, regional maintenance centers, and ship facilities.
Navy ship maintenance is extremely labor and resource intensive, and ship maintenance schedules must satisfy complex constraints. For example, many maintenance operations require different combinations of limited resources such as maintenance shops, equipment, and maintenance teams with specific skills and certifications. Large parts are removed from the ship and transported to specialized maintenance shops where they are reconditioned or repaired. Other work is performed on board in small spaces, so spatial reasoning is needed to schedule those tasks.
The US Navy has successfully used the Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) methodology to manage other operations efficiently, so they desire a ship maintenance scheduling software system that supports CCPM. The Critical Chain method consolidates per-task safety margins into a smaller number of aggregate safety margins. By allocating safety times strategically, organizations achieve higher throughput. Also, CCPM provides organizations with greater visibility into how their projects are performing, and it provides global metrics to guide and motivate all parties to do what is best for the entire organization. For this project, Stottler Henke is teaming with Main Sail LLC who contributes expertise in Critical Chain Project Management and Theory of Constraints.
Like complex operations at many organizations, management of Navy ship maintenance requires resource-constrained scheduling of tens of thousands of activities, which is beyond the ability of ordinary CCPM software. Stottler Henke's solution for the Navy is based on Aurora-CCPM which combines Stottler Henke's Aurora intelligent planning and scheduling system (http://www.stottlerhenke.com/products/aurora) with the added power and flexibility of multi-project Critical Chain Project Management.
Aurora is the world's leading planning and scheduling system that uses artificial intelligence to generate efficient solutions to complex, highly constrained scheduling problems. Most other systems use simple rules to schedule activities and assign resources to carry them out. Often, these schedules and resource assignments are far from optimal. Aurora outperforms conventional software because it uses artificial intelligence technologies to encode and apply extensive scheduling knowledge.
"We are delighted that the US Navy is evaluating Aurora software for managing their extensive ship maintenance operations," says Richard Stottler, president, Stottler Henke. "Aurora's artificial intelligence scheduling technology will improve the Navy's readiness, save taxpayer dollars, and enable superior operations management, as already seen by the US Air Force, aircraft manufacturers, and many industries," continues Stottler.
Aurora scheduling software was originally developed to help NASA tackle difficult, mission-critical scheduling problems with complex constraints by incorporating the judgment and experience of expert human schedulers. NASA used Aurora at Kennedy Space Center to schedule International Space Station payload and Shuttle processing activities. The Boeing Company uses Aurora to help them manage aspects of building the Boeing 787 Dreamliner commercial airliner. Other Aurora software users include Pfizer, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Korea Aerospace Industries, Massachusetts General Hospital, Bombardier Learjet, Alaska Airlines, the US Air Force, and the US Navy. Aurora was featured in NASA's Hallmarks of Success video series which showcases successful spin-off technologies.
Founded in 1988, Stottler Henke Associates, Inc. applies artificial intelligence and other advanced software technologies to solve problems that defy solution using traditional approaches. The company delivers intelligent software solutions for education and training, planning and scheduling, knowledge management and discovery, decision support, and autonomous systems. In 2012, Stottler Henke, in a White House ceremony, was awarded the prestigious Tibbetts award, which honors small businesses for the economic impact of their innovations and their contribution to Government research and development needs. Stottler Henke was the subject of a NASA Hallmarks of Success video profile for its work developing and commercializing advanced scheduling and training software systems. US Government agencies have designated eleven Stottler Henke systems as Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) success stories. Stottler Henke received a "Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning" award for innovative technology. Stottler Henke was named one of the "Top 100" companies making a significant impact on the military training industry by Military Training Technology magazine for 2016 and eleven previous years. Stottler Henke received a Blue Ribbon from Military Training Technology magazine, recognizing it as a company that leads the industry in innovation. In 2018, MS&T magazine, the leading simulation and training publication for defense, named Stottler Henke as a finalist for its small business of the year award. Email: info@stottlerhenke.com.
