Developed at Datavant's Pandemic Response Hackathon, New Interactive Map Assists With COVID-19 Scarce Resources Planning: ICU Beds & Ventilators

FRAMINGHAM, MASS. (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
Definitive Healthcare, the leading provider of data, intelligence, and analytics on the healthcare provider market, today announced that it has developed – during this weekend's Datavant virtual Pandemic Response Hackathon – a COVID-19 Capacity Predictor map, to predict where US hospitals may become overwhelmed with regard to mechanical ventilators and ICU beds.
Even by the most optimistic estimates, the demand for intensive care beds and ventilators is expected to exceed supply as the number of COVID-19 cases increases. Public officials at all levels of the government – as well as healthcare organizations providing these beds and ventilators – will need to determine quickly when and where additional treatment supplies should be channeled. To help solve for this, Definitive Healthcare designed this interactive, visual Tableau map of the United States to make it easier to identify where supplies will likely run out, to help officials and organizations allocate resources where they are most needed in time to improve outcomes for patients.
By combining proprietary Definitive Healthcare ICU hospital bed and ventilator availability/utilization data with population density, demographic information, and New York Times COVID-19 cases per day, Definitive Healthcare's data science team was able to graph supply capacity against predicted cases and hospitalizations by county and state. This information and analysis is being provided to the public to help our country address the growing pandemic.
"At Definitive Healthcare, we work with practitioner, patient, and facility data across the entire continuum of care all day, every day. We understand a pandemic the magnitude of COVID-19 is an incredible stressor on our current healthcare system, and we hope this tool helps officials and organizations identify the areas of greatest need," said Zach Sanders, Hackathon Team Lead and Manager of Product Engineering at Definitive Healthcare. "Our 13-person Hackathon team consisted of consisted of members from across Definitive Healthcare's organization, all of whom brought this project together in a single, 48-hour weekend. Recently, we've seen a lot of visualizations that cover COVID-19 spread, which are incredibly important – but we hope our tool can help solve the question of capacity: where and when important resources should be allocated as case volume continues to grow."
Users of Definitive Healthcare's COVID-19 Capacity Predictor can filter to a state and/or county of interest. Based on the filters a user applies, information is provided about that area's total available treatment resources (beds, ventilators), as well as projected days until current resources in the health care system are maxed out.
"Because this data can be viewed at a national, state, and county level, we believe our dashboard can be leveraged by officials at all levels of government and the public to plan resource distribution and understand potential ramifications. It has been a truly fulfilling endeavor enabling those decisions to be as data driven as possible," continued Sanders. "We're grateful for Definitive Healthcare's willingness to allow us to use its data on health system capacity and proud to add that data to the growing national discourse."
View Definitive Healthcare's COVID-19 Capacity Predictor here. This map is dynamic – updated on the Definitive Healthcare website in real time through live data feeds and modified as relevant data sources become available. For a video walk-through, please watch Definitive Healthcare's hackathon submission video.
"As a business, we are determined to do whatever it takes to be part of the COVID-19 solution. Over the past three weeks, we have been donating our data to branches of the government, universities, and organizations to drive solutions as fast as possible to the market. The Definitive Healthcare team worked tirelessly and passionately over the weekend to develop this impressive tool. We remain dedicated to making our data accessible during this critical time," said Jason Krantz, CEO at Definitive Healthcare. "I continue to be incredibly proud of Definitive employees, who generously donate their nights and weekends to developing such important and publicly-accessible tools. This type of engagement is already a hallmark of our company culture, but particularly commendable during this time of crisis."
To learn about other spotlight data projects developed at this weekend's Datavant Pandemic Response Hackathon, please tune in on Wednesday, April 1st at 7:00pm EST.

With a 113% 2-year growth rate, STACK continues to positively impact the construction technology market and help users to drive business growth

CINCINNATI (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
Inc. Magazine has recently revealed that STACK Construction Technologies [STACK], provider of the industry's leading cloud-based preconstruction software platform, ranks #195 on its new list, the Inc. 5000 Series: Midwest. The series ranks the 250 fastest-growing companies in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. STACK has also been included on the annual Inc. 5000 list for three consecutive years.
"Historically, much of the preconstruction process involved old-fashioned, PC-based, desktop software that was completely disconnected from the rest of the business. We built STACK to thrive in the cloud. That foundation, paired with new and innovative functionality that unlocks more of the project data from plans and specs than ever before is empowering teams to work together smarter and in real-time," said Phillip Ogilby, Founder and CEO at STACK. "The positive impact on our customers' business has been significant and our growth continues as a result."
Because of explosive industry growth and fierce competition, it's more important than ever for contractors to streamline their takeoff and estimation process to focus on the right projects and reduce time spent on bids. STACK software introduces efficiency and accuracy to a previously risk-prone preconstruction process and allows teams to collaborate effectively and in real-time – resulting not only in increased bid submissions but also in projects that are more strategically aligned with contractors' goals and strengths.
"Our team is energized by the fact that our solution is helping construction firms to estimate more work, in less time, with much greater accuracy than ever before," Ogilby concluded.
Companies on the Midwest list had an average growth rate of 360%. In 2018, they employed 27,000 people and had a $13 billion impact on the Midwest economy. The highest overall revenue is from Chicago, Detroit, and Cincinnati companies.
Complete results for STACK and all members of the 2020 Inc. 5000 Series: Midwest can be found at https://www.inc.com/inc5000-series-midwest-2020.html.

"In this time of uncertainty, we wanted to support the most vulnerable—those facing layoffs or in fear of losing their jobs—by making publicly available our career coaching services, enabling people to position themselves for a brighter future."
The Springboard AMA series will help job seekers discover the next steps in their careers by utilizing Springboard's professional career counseling and career skills training — two core strengths that distinguish the platform from other online learning programs.
The theme of the first AMA, to be held this Wednesday, April 1, is "Leveraging Virtual Networks and Resources." Springboard's career services manager, Allison Matthews, who coaches students globally and has helped place hundreds of job seekers anywhere from startups to Fortune 500 companies, will be fielding questions from the audience. She has over 12 years of experience working with and for companies across the country in industries such as tech, government, engineering, energy, education, and more.
The AMA will be held every Wednesday, starting April 1 from 3:30-4:30pm Eastern Time/12:30-1:30pm Pacific Time. To register and submit questions, visit Learn.Springboard.com/career-coach-ama.
The Springboard team feels fortunate to be able to support the community during this time by opening up to everyone the world-class career coaching services that are usually reserved for our enrolled students.

Automated contact tracing and medical surge site visibility solutions provide healthcare facilities and public health organizations essential tools to support infection containment and emergency response.

FARGO, N.D. (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
In response to the urgent need to efficiently assess infectious exposures and assist with operating medical surge sites, Prompt.Health (an Infinite Leap company), provider of easy and affordable real-time technology solutions, has released rapid deployment kits for Contact Tracing and Medical Surge Site Visibility solutions.
These COVID-19 Emergency Response Solutions are cloud-based and pre-configured, enabling healthcare facilities and public health organizations to install the solutions by themselves in under an hour.

Contact Tracing – immediately view who was in proximity to an infected person while they were in the facility by leveraging an automatically-generated Contact Tracing Report, which uses data collected by Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS).

Medical Surge Site Visibility – quickly look up the location of patients, staff, and medical equipment in temporary surge sites by leveraging real-time location information.

"As members of the healthcare community we serve, we felt obligated to do what we can to help contain the spread of COVID-19 and make the work of healthcare providers less turbulent as they face unprecedented challenges providing care for patients," said Mark Rheault, CEO of Infinite Leap. "Therefore, we challenged our team to make our solutions even faster and easier to deploy, so healthcare organizations can more quickly begin realizing the benefits of real-time technologies to make their environments safer and less chaotic for their patients and staff."
According to John Stehle, Ph.D., CIC, CCHM, and Chief Infection Prevention Consultant at Infinite Leap, based on his experience as Director of Infection Prevention at a large academic healthcare system, "Health care providers need to put in a tremendous amount of time and effort working up potential exposures in order to keep patients and staff safe. An RTLS-based contact tracing solution provides an efficient way to quickly identify and develop an exposure response plan."
In the face of a novel pathogen, as we are experiencing with COVID-19, he sees great value in the Contact Tracing solution capable of rapid deployment in areas such as EDs, urgent cares, and other high-risk areas. "It is critical to monitor a broader catchment area to ensure all potential contacts can be identified, especially since definitive transmission routes have not been confirmed which may still include airborne transmission in some scenarios for COVID-19," Stehle added.
The need to provide an easy to deploy real-time visibility system at medical surge sites has been strongly advocated by Mary Jagim, MSN, RN, CEN, FAEN, and past national president of Emergency Nurse Association (ENA). Jagim, who serves as CNO at Infinite Leap, helped design the Medical Surge Site Visibility solution, drawing on her years of experience as an emergency nurse and an emergency preparedness planner.
According to Jagim, knowing the location of patients, staff, and critical equipment during any type of medical surge event, such as a pandemic or mass casualty event, is critical. "It's easy to get lost in the chaos. With the Medical Surge Site Visibility solution, medical staff working on the frontlines, and the emergency command center, gain the visibility they need to efficiently and appropriately manage the influx of patients and assure the right resources are in the right places to care for them."
The quick deployment of the Contact Tracing and Medical Surge Site Visibility solutions is enabled by utilizing "plug-and-play" real-time location infrastructure. Prompt.Health's COVID-19 Emergency Response Solutions also provide contact tracing and real-time visibility capabilities to healthcare organizations that already have an RTLS infrastructure in place, allowing them to leverage their existing RTLS hardware to support infection containment and emergency response.

Prompt.Health (an Infinite Leap company) provides easy and affordable real-time technology solutions that make a big impact on patient experience and safety, increased capacity and access, and improved staff satisfaction.

Organized by OLC's Institute for Professional Development, OLC Ideate discussions will take place April 21-May 1, and will examine online pedagogy, practices and tools that support high-quality learning experiences, and resources for academic continuity planning during periods of disruption and beyond.

BOSTON (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
The Online Learning Consortium (OLC) today announced the OLC Institute for Professional Development is organizing "OLC Ideate," a series of free, online facilitated discussions for institutions seeking guidance and resources to plan for academic continuity during periods of disruption and beyond. OLC Ideate discussions will take place over a two-week period, April 21-May 1, and will examine online pedagogy, practices and tools that support high-quality learning experiences.
"Concerns related to the coronavirus have led many institutions down a path of emergency preparedness in the wake of temporary campus shutdowns," said Jennifer Mathes, Interim Chief Executive Officer for OLC. "As we continue to receive requests from institutions for support with professional development and guidance on planning for continuity of instruction, we recognize the opportunity to engage our diverse and robust community of educators in conversations and collaboration around best practices for ensuring quality in online teaching and learning. This will be the essence of the OLC Ideate experience."
OLC Ideate will consist of a series of open online salons (casual and inclusive spaces with discussions organized and facilitated by a salon leader) that will offer educators of all levels the opportunity to listen to emerging ideas and effective practices from their peers, in a unique format allowing for reflection, co-creation, co-work and synthesis, with connections to future OLC events for further collaboration.
"Our hope is that in bringing people together for these discussions, the effective practices and methods shared will serve as a model of what is possible in terms of collaborative and constructive engagement in the online learning environment, staying with educators well beyond times of crisis," added Mathes.
Part lightning talk, part collaborative discussion, and part design sprint, each salon is structured to be highly interactive and participatory. Salon leaders will guide participants through topics related to a series of themes that OLC has identified as central to research and initiatives within digital learning innovation. These themes include: adaptive learning, open educational resources, MOOCs, gamification, online design, learning spaces and the LMS, AR/VR, mobile learning, and continuity planning. OLC Ideate will feature a series of salons on the connection between digital learning strategy and continuity planning.
OLC is calling on experts from the digital learning and higher education community to participate in OLC Ideate in a number of key roles, including:

Salon Leads – facilitators for each virtual salon.

Salon Moderators – hosts for each virtual salon, providing the welcome and introductions.

Salon Sponsors – key organizations whose valued involvement make it possible for each virtual salon to be free to participants.

TOKYO (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
Kyash has raised $45 million in a Series C Funding round co-led by Greenspring Associates and Goodwater Capital, a global consumer technology investor along with several venture capital firms from around the world to accelerate its full-stack mobile banking business in Japan. Total funds raised as of today are $73 million.
Investors in the round include Goodwater Capital, which initially invested in Kyash's Series B Round, Greenspring Associates, a global venture capital investment platform with over $10 billion in assets under management, Greyhound Capital, a UK growth equity investment firm, US venture capital firm Altos Ventures, global investment firm Partech Partners, US FinTech venture capital fund Broadhaven Ventures, US venture capital firm Tekton Ventures, and Mr. Rahul Mehta, Managing Partner of DST Global. This is the first time Greenspring Associates, Partech, and Broadhaven Ventures have invested in a Japanese startup. Previous investor JAFCO also participated and remains committed to supporting Kyash's vision.
The funding will be used to further Kyash's overall growth strategy and business domain expansion, particularly into the banking space. ​
Since October 2019, Japan has undergone a nationwide cashless transformation driven by the government's subsidization of a portion of cashless payments. This transformation has become even more pressing with the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. With social distancing protocols being enforced worldwide, cashless payments are quickly becoming the norm, reducing physical contact and making people's lives easier, safer, and less stressful during this difficult time.
"I am delighted to announce Kyash's partnerships with these global investors as a result of the company's progress in product development and significant user traction in Japan amid the uncertain market conditions resulting from the widespread effects of the pandemic," said Shinichi Takatori, Founder & CEO of Kyash. "We are confident that our focus on developing proprietary payment technology and strategic merchant network partnerships continues to bring value to users and addresses the need for remote financial transactions in a digital economy."
About Kyash
Kyash is a Tokyo-based fast growing mobile financial startup that offers a mobile banking experience to consumers. Founded in 2015, the company's mission is to create a new financial infrastructure to transform the Japanese banking landscape.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
Care.Coach, a Silicon Valley healthcare startup, disclosed today details of a rapid expansion of its virtual avatar program for health plans to combat COVID-19's exacerbation of the loneliness epidemic in the United States. The company, founded in 2012 by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) graduate Victor Wang, develops virtual avatars that provide companionship to individuals who live with complex health conditions and chronic loneliness. A large body of published research demonstrates that the feeling of loneliness increases morbidity and mortality; in a time of social distancing, self-isolation, and quarantine, loneliness has become a clear public health crisis. Care.Coach is rising to the challenge by providing its customers with as many avatars as are needed to support these at-risk populations.
For the past 8 years, Care.Coach has been working with care providers to help those populations which possess "outsized risk", focusing on older adults with psychosocial risks such as loneliness, depression, and anxiety, alongside medical risks such as diabetes, hypertension, COPD, heart failure, and medication non-adherence. Now, broadly enforced self-isolation and shelter-in-place policies are increasingly expected to accelerate an already-growing loneliness epidemic across the nation.
Understanding this reality, the Massachusetts Department of Developmental Services (DDS) North Shore Area Office, an existing customer of Care.Coach, asked the company to quickly provide a 4x increase in the number of avatars deployed to individuals, with the goal of better supporting individuals with coping strategies and a way to stay connected while confined to their homes.
Similarly, Element Care's Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) which is both a provider organization and a health plan, is another customer of Care.Coach. Element Care has ordered and is deploying more avatars to better support their hundreds of participants impacted by the shutdown of their PACE Wellness Centers in an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
Bob Wakefield, Element Care's CEO, stated, "We care for more than 1,000 frail elders who receive comprehensive medical care and socialize with friends at our PACE Wellness Centers, so it presents an enormous challenge when those centers are all closed due to the COVID-19 outbreak and we need to care for our participants in their homes."
The situation is stressing individuals as much as the healthcare system. "I woke up this morning and realized I am not going anywhere. I thought I could handle this, but I am struggling," says Gail Sauvan, an Element Care participant. "I have asked Angel [my Care.Coach avatar] to do chair exercises with me as I miss doing them every day at PACE. I also like his jokes as they make me laugh while I am here alone. I am going to do meditation daily with him too to help keep me calm and reduce my chance of having a panic attack."
Care.Coach provides specialized tablet-based devices that display an avatar of a pet animal, which serves as a non-judgemental, 24x7 available relationship to support complex, high risk patients and health plan members. For these individuals, the Care.Coach avatar has been shown to reduce loneliness, as described by published research studies from Pace University and the University of Washington. Individuals talk naturally with the avatar using their voice, and receive 24x7 psychosocial support and coaching on managing multiple chronic conditions. The system is powered by a specially-trained team of health advocates employed by Care.Coach and supported by evidence-based protocols and artificial intelligence. Traditional care teams are automatically alerted about adverse events and changes in health status, and receive actionable analytics. Each Care.Coach device includes its own cellular Internet connection, so individuals do not need Wi-Fi at home.
"When I started this company eight years ago to help people like my grandmother with loneliness, I could not have predicted social distancing would become the new normal," says Victor Wang, founder and CEO of Care.Coach. "I'm very proud of our growing team here at Care.Coach for stepping up to the challenge of helping many more individuals and for rapidly scaling up with our Medicare Advantage, PACE, and other customers in this time of great need."

C-Level Executives' Primary Data Protection Concerns Diverge By Sector – Data Security and Encryption Are Most Important in Legal, Data Backup and Recovery Are Top Priority in Education

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
New research from Infrascale, a cloud-based data protection company providing industry-leading backup and disaster recovery solutions, indicates that 58% of C-level executives at small and medium businesses (SMBs) said their biggest data storage challenge is security vulnerability. Nearly half (49%) of top leaders at SMBs said cyberattacks are their biggest data protection concern. Yet more than 20% of SMB leaders said they do not currently have a data backup or disaster recovery solution in place.
The Infrascale research, conducted in March 2020, is based on a survey of more than 500 C-level executives. CEOs represented 87% of the group. Almost all of the remainder was split between CIOs and CTOs.
"In today's data-driven world, seeing that over 20% of SMBs do not have a data protection solution in place is quite concerning," said Russell P. Reeder, CEO of Infrascale. "Every modern company depends on data and operational uptime for its very survival, and there are some very accessible solutions available to companies of all sizes. Data protection and operational uptime have never been more important than during the unprecedented times we are currently facing."
Data Protection Means Different Things to Different People
Certain aspects of data protection are more important than others, depending upon an individual's unique experiences and position. But data protection clearly delivers significant value from many vantage points.
When asked what data protection means to them, 61% of the survey group named data security and encryption. The same share said data backup. Nearly as many (59%) defined data protection as data recovery, while 54% cited anti-malware services.
Forty-six percent said data protection addresses email protection. Data archiving and the ability to become operational quickly after a disaster each captured 45% of the survey group's vote.
Meanwhile, 44% of the group said data protection means ransomware protection/mitigation. The same share named physical device protection for endpoints such as laptops and mobile phones. And nearly a third (32%) said that for them data protection involves processes that prevent user error.
"Data protection can come into play in a wide array of important ways – including data security and encryption, data recovery, email protection, and data archiving. It also provides the ability to recover quickly from a disaster, protection from and mitigation of ransomware, and physical device protection. Plus, it can mitigate user error," said Reeder. "Data protection by way of backup and disaster recovery is essential for modern business. It really is the only way to ensure that a business can return to a pre-compromised state or to full working order as efficiently and effectively as possible."
Opinions About Data Protection Vary by Industry as Well
The Infrascale research suggests there is significant variation in what top executives from different sectors consider the most important aspects of data protection.
In the legal space, 89% of executives said data protection provides data security and encryption. Seventy-one percent of the top leaders in the healthcare sector agreed. Data security and encryption was the top answer among retail/ecommerce and telecommunications leaders as well, although with lower shares – 67% and 52%, respectively.
Top executives in education see data backup and data recovery as the most important aspects of data protection. Sixty-one percent of this group said they hold this belief. For 57% of the top leaders in accounting, banking or finance, data backup is the key concern in data protection.
Cyberattacks Are SMB Leaders' Top Overall Data Protection Concern
The overall survey group said cyberattacks are the biggest data protection issue their companies are facing. Nearly half (49%) of the group voiced their concern about hacking.
Micro disasters such as corrupted hard drives and malware infections were the second most commonly indicated concern, garnering a 46% share from the group. System crashes (41%), data leaks (39%), ransomware attacks (38%), and human errors (38%) were next on the list.
There was some variation in sector response here as well. Top leaders in education (64%), telecommunications (63%) and healthcare (54%) said that micro disasters are their biggest data protection issues. But more than half of the survey respondents in both the retail (54%) and financial (53%) sectors said cyberattacks such as ransomware are their leading data protection challenges.
"Cyberattacks like ransomware are a major challenge for businesses today," said Reeder. "Benjamin Franklin once said that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. However, as criminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated to make their attacks look legitimate, we have seen even the most protected environments become compromised. With a backup and disaster recovery solution in place, the power is out of the criminal's hands. One can simply restore back to a pre-compromised state and not reward criminals for their actions."
Most SMBs Have Data Protection in Place, But Those That Don't Remain Unprotected
Views about data protection definitions – and what is most important to the protection of SMB data – may vary. But most SMBs clearly believe it is important to have a data protection and/or backup and disaster recovery solution in place, as 79% of the survey group said they already do.
However, while the majority has taken steps to protect data, the remainder – which represents a significant share at 21% – clearly has not. And 13% of SMB C-level executives said they do not have any data protection strategy in place. That leaves these businesses vulnerable.
"Each organization is different," said Reeder. "But one thing all businesses have in common is a desire to eradicate downtime and data loss. Organizations can and should protect their data, and their businesses as a whole, by enabling comprehensive data protection with modern backup and disaster recovery solutions and strategies. This has never been more relevant than today, as much of the world has mobilized to a remote workforce. Consider the implications for a business should their data become compromised if it does not have a solution in place to quickly and effectively return to working order."

The coronavirus pandemic is being exploited by state and non-state actors who are creating pandemic information websites that are being used to launch malware and ransomware attacks. The team at SECTARA are working with clients to model these threats and develop counterstrategies. You can find more information, analysis, and security risk management models in the Security Risk Management Aide-Memoire via SRMAM and at SECTARA, the official SRMAM software companion.

SYDNEY (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
As the world reels from the coronavirus pandemic, the situation has been seen as an opportunity for threat actors, who've taken advantage of the opportunity to target victims with scams or malware campaigns.
Now, according to analysis by SECTARA, hackers are exploiting coronavirus fears to spread their own infections, creating or taking over coronavirus information sites. Some of these appear to include state sponsored actors seeking to compromise corporate data systems. Others are opportunists, exploiting public demand for breaking information to launch payloads of ransomware and malware.
These sorts of activities include registering malicious Coronavirus-related domains and selling discounted off-the-shelf malware in the dark web.
Many victims of these exploits are individuals, looking for updates on coronavirus or seeking information about how to protect themselves and loved ones. Even more concerning is that organizations such government agencies, supply chains, hospitals, and pathology centers are also falling victim to this sort of attack. An attack which is coming on top of a global financial crisis when resources, finances, and supply chains are already compromised. These new attacks are on top of phishing campaigns that distribute malware such as APT36, AZORuIt, Emotet, and Nanocore RAT via malicious emails and links.
One of these, APT36, is a Pakistani state-sponsored threat actor which mainly performs cyber-espionage to collect sensitive information from India, has been using a decoy health advisory that taps into global panic around the coronavirus pandemic to spread the Crimson RAT. Crimson RAT is designed to steal credentials from victims' browsers, capture screenshots, and list the processes, drives and directories from victim computers [1].
According to security risk management expert Julian Talbot, author of the Security Risk Management Aide-Mémoire, "There are a wide range of groups who are executing malware and ransomware attacks to profit from the global health pandemic. These attacks are only likely to grow as the pandemic continues."
"Despite China's success with the lockdown, there is really no exit strategy until we have a vaccine, which is unlikely to be this year. Hackers and state-sponsored actors will continue to build ever more sophisticated attacks if we are not vigilant," said Julian Talbot. "We can't simply have a 30-day lockdown and then expect to be able to open all the cafes and venues immediately afterward like it was 2019. My assessment is that we are looking at a series of rolling lockdowns and travel bans until there is a vaccine.
"Our models indicate that we are exposed to a ripple effect in the event of any additional shock. With the markets already witnessing the fastest 30% drop in history, what would happen if we had another 9/11 event?
"In combining the models we have published in the Security Risk Management Aide-Mémoire (http://www.srmam.com) with our software in SECTARA (http://www.sectara.com), results indicate that risks such as a major attack, nuclear reactor problem, utilities failure, or a reduction in supply of oil & gas to Western Europe, could create a cascading environment of security risk management crises."
"At SECTARA, we are taking the models from the Security Risk Management Body of Knowledge (SRMBOK) and applying them to the current coronavirus situation. We have made this model and even the software available for free as a public service," said Konrad Buczynski, CEO of SECTARA.
Staying Secure
"Our modelling indicates that businesses and individuals need to take a layered approach to protecting their computer infrastructure and personal safety," said Julian Talbot. "We have been publishing this information and key protective measures on several websites now including https://resourcesforcoronavirus.com, https://sectara.com, https://srmam.com, and http://www.juliantalbot.com."
It's clear that bad actors are prepared to use people's coronavirus fears and thirst for information against them. Given the impact we are already facing at a global level, organizations and individuals, need to apply, not just social distancing, but also sound security, and in particular, cybersecurity practices.
Some strategies to stay safe include:

Make sure you have a pandemic management plan and policy in place.

Ensure that remote working arrangements are secure.

Deliver refresher training to ensure appropriate security behaviours.

Make sure that personal devices such as phones and home computers have adequate security measures.

Avoid public Wi-Fi and never use unsecured Wi-Fi networks.

Be vigilant of every email or message that contains a link or attachment and if in doubt, takes measures to verify the legitimacy legitimate of each email before opening.

Use trusted sources such as government websites for updates and information.

Familiarise yourself with, and apply, security risk management principles such as Bow-Tie, Human Factors, Swiss-Cheese model, ISO31000 Risk Management Standard, and the hierarchy of controls (ESIEAP).

In conjunction with SECTARA, Julian Talbot has also made the Security Risk Management Aide-Memoire (SRMAM) and all the models available for free. SRMAM provides a contemporary account of methods and principles detailed within the Security Risk Management Body of Knowledge (SRMBOK) as well as free high-resolution models and images, new research and updates advice linked to 2018 revision of the ISO 31000 - Risk Management standard.
"Cybersecurity, terrorism, the internet of things, and convergence of technologies are putting CEOs and Boards under pressure to maintain robust security solutions" according to Jason Brown, Chair of Technical Committee ISO/TC 262 responsible for development of the ISO31000:2018 Risk Management Standard. "It has never been more critical to maintain sound security practices."
The Danish hearing aid manufacturer Demant recently incurred what is estimated to be a $95M bill associated with a cyber incident that struck the company in early September and a Chicago-based futures brokerage will pay a total of $1.5 million for letting cyber criminals breach the firm's email systems and withdraw $1 million from a customer's account. Few organizations have reserve capital for these sorts of expenses, even in the best of times. The middle of a pandemic is not such a time.
The SRMAM is available now on Amazon and is provided at no charge for all SECTARA free and paid plan subscribers.

About SECTARA:
SECTARA (Security Threat And Risk Assessor) was created for security consultants and corporate security managers frustrated with the lack of advanced security risk assessment (specific) software and tools. Performing risk assessments using MS Office products, in particular, can be a tedious process, plagued by styling / formatting problems, layout selection and the routine need for reverse engineering to assure logic throughout.
Such methods are not particularly collaborative, present data security concerns and often drift beyond the bounds of recommended security standards and their assessment methodologies (because we are all human).
Moreover, enterprise risk systems are necessarily generic and security risk consultant's needs are very specific. It's also difficult to get IT and expenditure approval for internally hosted systems, especially ones that are not part of 'core' business.
SECTARA was developed in response to those problems, providing a security risk assessment and security management environment in which best practices for the security industry are within easy reach and available at an affordable cost.
Importantly, risk assessment methodologies detailed within leading global security standards have been accounted for within the system, in a way that addresses the needs of the most advanced security practitioners, but also keeps it simple for those new to the industry.
Julian co-designed SECTARA (Security Threat and Risk Assessor) to align with SRMAM philosophies; the SaaS software platform was recently recognised as the #1 Risk Management Product by GoodFirms. He sits on its Expert Advisory Board along with Jason Brown, Geoffrey D. Askew AM and Konrad Buczynski, each a formally recognised expert responsible for design and implementation of some of the more advanced security risk and resilience programs within industry.
SECTARA enables anyone who is responsible for performing security risk assessments to create and complete them quickly, simply and with methodological rigour. Inbuilt data libraries assure productivity gains, and the software is suitable for any scope and industry.
SECTARA has a premium cybersecurity pedigree courtesy of David Begg (CISM, IRAP Assessor and Head of Cybersecurity), and field-level encryption means that nobody, including developers, administrators or anyone else, can view unencrypted sensitive data.

Steerpath kicks off a limited-time program to support hospitals with its web and mobile tools to guide patients to appropriate hospital entrances and reception areas. Due to limited resources, the company will initially prioritize Nordic and UK hospitals.

HELSINKI, FINLAND. (PRWEB) MARCH 31, 2020
A leading provider of digital wayfinding solutions, Steerpath, today announced the availability of its digital wayfinding solutions to hospitals, who may need help in managing the uptick in critical patients that the outbreak is likely to bring.
Steerpath's digital wayfinding solution will provide the following support to hospitals and incoming new patients:
1) Wayfinding with a digital online map: hospitals can publish the recommended routing online, guiding visitors to hospital doors and entrances that are dedicated to accepting new patients

ACLS Desktop Simulation Training allows for quick reacquisition of key clinical skills needed as providers shift gears into multiple departments during COVID-19 crisis.

WESTMINSTER, COLO. (PRWEB) APRIL 01, 2020
Health Scholars, the creator of the first ever virtual reality (VR) Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) training announces a $1M in grant funding for surge provider training to help combat COVID-19.
The grant will provide approximately14,000 providers ACLS Desktop Simulation Training to assist health systems with preparedness training. It will enable hospitals to quickly deploy training to surge providers needing to acquire or re-acquire clinical skills related to emergency situations—such as dysrhythmia or a code event.
"Our ACLS simulation provides a deliberate practice environment for surge providers to prepare themselves for acute care—providing the real-to-life reference experience needed to handle inpatient emergencies while on the frontlines of this pandemic," says Dr. Brian Gillett, President and Chief Medical Officer of Health Scholars.
As hospitals continue to ramp up with the assistance of additional providers to handle the patient surge due to COVID-19, this will entail preparing outpatient providers to perform acute care for inpatients or cross-training providers from other areas of the hospital.
"Surge providers may need to assist with the care of critical patients in the Emergency Department, Intensive Care Unit or General Med-Surge floors, bringing along a challenge of needing to have large numbers of providers quickly acquiring or re-acquiring key clinical skills related to acute care, like ACLS." Gillett continued.
Health Scholars is currently offering two programs as part of the grant; a matching program for state hospital associations who purchase training at a state level, or individual hospitals or hospital systems that have financial and clinical need can apply to receive ACLS Desktop Simulation Training
The desktop application is available for purchase now for those looking for a faster way to address emergency preparedness training.
The ACLS Desktop Simulation Training provides a deliberate practice environment for providers to prepare themselves for acute care—which is best achieved through a real-to-life reference experience. The application is an entirely voice-driven, screen-based simulation that trains providers to respond to all 13 core American Heart Association (AHA) rhythms in stable, unstable and cardiac arrest scenarios. The simulation also trains providers on a traditional ACLS Mega Code and refreshes post-arrest care after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) is achieved.
Unique to ACLS Simulation is the use of 100% natural language processing. The provider uses voice direction to communicate all of the actions needed to run a resuscitation team, which provides the most immersive, effective and scalable approach to ACLS skills practice available today. The training takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes to complete, provides a detailed debrief and readiness assessment, and is repeatable on an unlimited basis. And it is immediately available for use.

About Health Scholars
Our mission is to advance healthcare education through virtualization, making experience-based training scalable, accessible and affordable to both Healthcare and Public Safety providers. Health Scholars is a cloud-based, VR-ready clinical training platform with VR Simulations, Simulation Management, and Clinical Readiness Reporting solutions for the management, delivery and analysis of clinical training.

Collaborative apps ensure the right documents are always in the hands of the right people, keeping the entire team on the same page

ALPHARETTA, GA. (PRWEB) APRIL 01, 2020
Kahua, the provider of the world's premiere collaborative network for real estate and construction project management, announces a new suite of Design Management and Document Control Apps that enable the management, review, approval, distribution, and markup of all design documents including Drawings, Models, Specs, and Reports.
The management of construction design documents is often more demanding than what typical file management solutions alone can provide. On any given project, design documents can originate from many different sources, come in many different formats, and go through multiple iterations at an often-overwhelming pace. Project teams require several tools to ensure that all stakeholders have access to the most current design, especially in the field where the actual work is being performed.
Kahua provides a Common Data Environment for program managers, owners and contractors who must coordinate the sources of all documents, enabling them to upload and submit them directly into a shared Project Drawing Log. Kahua's new Shared Drawing Log, which is compliant with ISO 19650 standards, is designed to be easy to use and is optimized for collaboration with a modern markup toolset, as well as a collaborative commenting model to keep the project team on the same page.
As BIM adoption in the construction industry continues to grow, organizations need to ensure that models are made available to the greater project team. Kahua's built-in Model Viewing & Collaboration enables the entire project team to have access to the valuable information which models provide without any additional software or BIM expertise required.
Drawing Revisions often need to undergo a QA Check to ensure that the revisions correspond with what was expected. Many organizations also subject newly received documents to a formal Design Review process prior to releasing them. Kahua integrates these processes into an adaptable out-of-the-box workflow, which streamlines the process of getting new revisions reviewed and into the hands of the team members that need them.
One of the last and most important steps in the Drawing Review/Approval process is releasing the documents to the correct recipients. With thousands of documents, and hundreds of potential recipients, this process can be tedious and prone to mistakes. Kahua's new automated Release & Distribution process simplifies this step and ensures the right documents get into the right hands.
"Design Management is an integral part of the construction workflow," said Brian Moore, president of Kahua. "We are proud to offer functionality that allows our customers to collaboratively manage their design documents, saving them time and reducing risk."
About Kahua
Kahua is changing the way that capital assets are delivered and managed. The Kahua Network is the world's leading collaborative network for real estate and construction program and project management. Delivered as a secure, scalable Application Platform-as-a-Service (aPaaS), The Kahua Network enables users to easily share data, documents and workflows across all applications and projects.

Combine that with our offer of three months free protection for these collaboration tools and we know we are doing our part to keep end-users safe in work-from-home environments."
About BitDam
BitDam is a pioneer in cyber defense, securing enterprise email (Office 365, G-Suite, MS Exchange), cloud drives (OneDrive, G-Drive, Dropbox, Box etc.) and other collaboration tools from ransomware, malware, and phishing.

Independent of feeds, reputation and intelligence services, BitDam's cloud-based Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) detects never-seen-before attacks of any type, providing a remarkably higher detection rate and empowering organizations to collaborate safely.
Recognized by Frost & Sullivan for its technology leadership, BitDam's award-winning ATP solution is utilized by hundreds of thousands of end-users and deployed by leading organizations in Europe and the US, with a proven record of detecting threats that other security solutions fail to uncover.

Users can adjust priorities and set bandwidth limits so that low priority traffic doesn't interfere with multimedia applications or favorite websites.

"The industry is accelerating the transition to 2.5 Gbps Ethernet," said Rivet Networks' CEO Michael Cubbage. "Gamers that demand the best need the Killer E3100 to get the lowest latency and incredible throughput. With more and more routers and switches hitting the market supporting 2.5 Gbps Ethernet, it is the perfect time for Gamers to upgrade."
"With MSI laptops featuring Killer E3100, not only do gamers get the benefit of faster gaming connections, enthusiasts and prosumers will also be able to enjoy accelerated connections for home multimedia steaming server or network storage," said Derek Chen, Sales & Marketing Director of MSI.
"Acer continues to integrate innovative new technologies to enhance the gaming experience on our Predator and Nitro devices," said Vincent Lin, Associate Vice President, Product Marketing and Planning, Acer Inc. "Network performance is an essential part of online gaming, and the Killer E3100 ethernet controller can give gamers the network connection they need to compete."

At a time when hospital resources are scarce and surgeries are being postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Temple Health is leveraging HGE Health's scalable COVID Care platform to protect transplant and surgical patients against exposure to the virus

PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB) APRIL 02, 2020
To avoid compromising the immune system of transplant recipients or patients waiting for a transplant during the COVID-19 pandemic, Temple Health has begun enrolling lung, heart, kidney, and liver transplant patients using HGE Health's COVID Care(TM) platform. Over 350 transplant patients were enrolled within days of the pandemic to monitor pre- and post-transplant patients for COVID-19 symptoms and immediately care for those patients who exhibit symptoms.
Underlying health conditions warranting a transplant can compromise the immune system, making pre-transplant patients susceptible to severe COVID infection. Similarly, transplant recipients are commonly prescribed immunosuppressants that lower the body's ability to reject a transplanted organ. However, suppressing the body's ability to reject a transplanted organ also inhibits the body's immune system from warding off infections such as a COVID-19 infection. Thus, both pre- and post-transplant patients are at high risk for severe COVID-19 infection and morbidity.
Patients enrolled in HGE Health's COVID Care(TM) remote symptom monitoring platform report their symptoms daily, from home. Questions prepared in accordance with guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control ("CDC") seek information about any symptoms or other conditions experienced by enrolled patients that suggest possible exposure to, or contraction of the COVID-19 virus. "Our platform presents the reported symptom data for our enrolled patients in a format that allows those with the highest risk of infection to be prioritized for medical care" explained Michael J. Markus, Ph.D., CEO of HGE Health. "Transplant patients who are awaiting a transplant or have received a transplant are among the group of patients who are the most susceptible to severe COVID-19 infections and require immediate attention if they contract the virus. The symptom data we collect allows for rapid treatment, often the same day the symptom data is received, so their caregivers can intervene and provide treatment to mitigate the effect of the virus on those patients. Thanks to their daily symptom reports, patients have the peace of mind knowing that they stand a better chance of remaining healthy while awaiting a transplant and that they have someone watching over them in their convalescence, regardless of where they are, following a transplant."
Temple University Hospital (TUH), its Department of Thoracic Medicine and Surgery, and the Temple Lung Center -- the most active lung disease and lung transplantation complex in the United States – are leveraging the scalable nature of the COVID Care(TM) platform to monitor their vulnerable transplant population. The resources of TUH are already strained due to inpatient visits seeking care for COVID-19 infections, in addition to TUH's patient demands that existed before the current pandemic. Despite the surge in demand, TUH maintains the ability to monitor the symptoms of its transplant patients in real-time and prioritize those requiring medical intervention as part of its comprehensive care program. Any transplant patients suspected of having contracted COVID-19 can be treated quickly, often at the patients' homes.
Transplant patients, pre- and post-procedure, who are enrolled in the COVID Care(TM) platform use their smartphone, computer or other terminal to securely submit any symptoms of COVID-19 on a daily basis. The reported symptoms are used to categorize the transplant patients into risk categories, taking their potentially compromised immune system into consideration, enabling TUH to rapidly respond to those with the highest risk of a severe COVID-19 infection.
"We recognize that transplant patients, especially during this COVID-19 pandemic, are highly vulnerable and clinically fragile," said Dr. Markus. "However, if we can help keep lung, heart, kidney, liver and other organ transplant patients stable during a time when the pandemic has severely limited the availability of existing resources, HGE Health can be the critical bridge between patients and their physicians."
Coronavirus has spread to countries around the world, infecting more than one million people, killing more than 50,000. The World Health Organization ("WHO") recognizes that the severity of Coronavirus is linked to the age and health condition of patients and has recently declared it a pandemic. Patients of advanced age (at least 60 years old) and diagnosed with a co-morbid disease are the most likely to experience a severe infection of Coronavirus. HGE Health's digital platform and technology-enabled services, called HGE Care, allows physicians to remotely care for patients from anywhere in the nation, and help patients better understand and manage changes in their symptoms.

Concertio is proud to announce the closing of its $4.2M Seed Round. The funds will be used to scale operations of its AIOps Optimizer platform and to further Concertio's technology lead in dynamic, continuous, and static optimization.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 02, 2020
Concertio, the leading provider of AI-powered performance optimization software, today announced the closing of its $4.2M Seed Round, led by Differential Ventures. The funds will be used to scale operations of its AIOps Optimizer platform and to further the company's technology lead in dynamic, continuous, and static optimization.
"We're entering the era of self-tuning servers, where servers automatically adjust their settings dynamically in real-time according to the workloads that they run," says Dr. Tomer Morad, co-founder and CEO of Concertio. "Our Optimizer products transform general-purpose systems into high-performant special-purpose systems, thereby boosting performance and slashing infrastructure costs."
Modern servers employ an ever-growing number of configuration settings. Misconfiguring these settings drastically slows the performance of critical systems and leads to bloated infrastructure environments and cloud spend. Best performance is attained when these settings are tailored to the actual applications that currently run. Optimizing these hundreds of settings, however, is no small feat, as the number of potential configuration combinations grows exponentially. The result is a complex and costly manual tuning process that is challenging to maintain over time, even for experts, as any change in the system, such as a new software version, requires re-tuning.
Concertio has tackled this growing problem with its patented Optimizer products, aimed at addressing the system performance challenges enterprises face, starting from development in the lab all the way to deployment in production. Leveraging machine-learning technology, Concertio Optimizer enhances applications and systems to achieve maximum performance through the optimization of the myriad of configuration settings employed in these complex systems. Concertio Optimizer features dynamic, continuous and static modes of optimization to tackle any parameter and resource tuning challenge enterprises face today.
Concertio Optimizer products are used in a variety of use-cases, including maximizing system performance, reducing IT and cloud costs, Kubernetes resource optimization, minimizing latencies in high-frequency trading platforms, compiler flag mining, database optimization, optimization of CPU and ASIC products' defaults, maximizing networking bandwidth, maximizing benchmark performance and more. Concertio products deliver out-of-the-box support for configuration parameters in numerous platforms, including Intel CPUs, Linux, Kubernetes, OpenMPI, Hadoop, MongoDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, Java, PHP, NGNIX, Apache Web Server, HHVM, Mellanox NICs, GCC flags, LLVM flags, and more. Concertio features three modes of optimization: agent-based dynamic real-time optimization for use in production servers, continuous optimization where static optimization is implemented within the CI/CD pipeline, and static optimization for use by hardcore performance engineers and IT professionals. Intel, Marvell and Mellanox have each published use-cases with Concertio.
About Concertio:
Concertio is the leading provider of AI-powered system performance optimization tools from the lab to deployment. Concerito's patented Optimizer boosts performance by tailoring the many system and application settings to work in concert with the currently running workloads, all automatically, continuously and in real-time. Welcome to the era of self-tuning systems!

"Our Optimizer products transform general-purpose systems into high-performant special-purpose systems, thereby boosting performance and slashing infrastructure costs," says Dr. Tomer Morad, co-founder and CEO of Concertio.

Human trial will enroll approximately 100 patients with investigational immunotherapy developed by Celularity for cases of COVID-19 disease

SEATTLE (PRWEB) APRIL 02, 2020
With more than 25 years of success in infectious disease research and development, the Infectious Disease Research Institute (IDRI) is poised make rapid and significant advances in developing a treatment of COVID-19. The organization is coordinating a novel study for the treatment in collaboration with New Jersey-based Celularity Inc., which has pioneered an investigational immunotherapy that could potentially be a promising treatment option for COVID-19.
The treatment is based on the administration of immune cells known as Natural Killer or "NK cells" which have been safely given in early phase studies to patients for the treatment of leukemia and multiple myeloma. NK cells play a key role in the body's defense against viral infections, and the severe cases of COVID-19 in the initial patients were associated with low NK cell counts.
"To date, efforts to treat COVID-19 cases have been primarily focused on antiviral medications," explains IDRI's CEO Corey Casper. "While these are important, patients with serious disease may not respond completely to antiviral medications because they are experiencing damage already inflicted on the body's vital organs."
Celularity obtained Investigational New Drug clearance from the Food and Drug Administration to test its proprietary NK cell product, CYNK-001, against COVID-19. CYNK-001 is the only cryopreserved allogeneic, off-the-shelf NK cell therapy developed from placental hematopoietic stem cells as a potential treatment option for COVID-19 and other viral diseases, as well as various hematologic cancers and solid tumors. The groundbreaking study, opening shortly at medical centers in the United States, will enroll approximately 100 patients diagnosed with a COVID-19 infection causing pneumonia. Participants will be provided with infusions of CYNK-001.
"The hypothesis is that administering NK cells to patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 will allow the immune cells find the sites of active viral infection, kill the virus, and induce a robust immune response that will help heal the damage and control the infection," noted Casper, who is also a Clinical Professor of Global Health and Medicine (Infectious Disease) at the University of Washington in Seattle.
"Beyond its promise as a critically needed treatment for COVID-19, the biology of NK cells indicates a possibility that this immunotherapy could be used as an off-the-shelf treatment for future pandemic infections," he added.

Cloud Daddy Secure Backup 2.0 launches with AI-based security features, On-Premise-to-Cloud backup, and an intuitive web based wizard interface. There is nothing similar on the market now.

PRINCETON, N.J. (PRWEB) APRIL 02, 2020
Cloud Daddy Inc., an AWS - cloud native, world's most secure backup and disaster recovery platform for AWS, unveils Cloud Daddy Secure Backup (CDSB) 2.0 today.
With CDSB 2.0, Cloud Daddy introduces three new critical features to an already feature-rich product that emphasizes value-based enterprise security. CDSB 2.0 optimizes costs of cloud-based storage and increases an organization's security.
The three new features in version 2.0 are:
1) Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based Anomaly Detection; based on intuitive AWS performance, network and other native models – customers can configure various levels of responses – from e-mail notification – to other actions such as stopping the instance and invoking last known good backup.
2) On Premise Hyper-V Virtual Machine to AWS Cloud Backup (VMware On Premise to AWS Cloud backup is coming shortly in upcoming release 2.1)
3) Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) Backup and Cloning
All three features enhance enterprise security and provide tremendous value for the award – winning Clouddaddy.com AWS DR and Cyber Security application:

AI-based Anomaly Detection

The AI module helps CDSB 2.0 identify anomalies, and track exploits that are commonly associated to usage patterns, while identifying anomalous data points. The new anomaly detection module is closely integrated with the Amazon CloudWatch Anomaly Detection service. The module uses machine learning techniques to detect 'unusually behaving' instances and abnormal configurations while running comparisons against traditional pattern behavior and taking corrective action – all with or without human intervention.
CDSB 2.0 offers this incredible capability while providing native cloud backups and disaster recovery with transparent, predictable and managed single pane of glass admin functions. Module features include an easy to use configuration wizard and instant backup when an alarm occurs.

Hyper-V Machine to AWS Cloud Backup

CDSB 2.0 helps enterprise customers to completely erase the line between on-premise and cloud environments when it comes to backup and disaster recovery. With the latest version, backups are possible for on-premise Hyper-V virtual machines and AWS cloud. VMware support to come shortly.
Hyper-V machine backups are stored in special S3 storage within AWS and can be restored to customer datacenter environments, or into Amazon instances running within AWS.
This feature gives network architects a new set of controls for creating the most economically viable and reliable backup and disaster recovery methodologies.

VPC Backup and Cloning

Looking for a solution to backup AWS instances and databases while preserving network connectivity or to clone entire AWS network infrastructure from one region to another in seconds? This can be done with version 2.0.
CDSB 2.0 can easily clone, backup and restore subnets, security groups, DHCP options sets, route tables, network ACLs, Internet and VPN Gateways. With CDSB 2.0 you can do a combination of data and VPC environment backup and disaster recovery, saving time while really enhancing security levels.
Cloud Daddy is thrilled to be building up these security features on top of the existing robust set of tools that CDSB already has and for which it has been recognized as a startup winner by Techdata in a recent backup and disaster recovery ranking. To paraphrase one of the judges, CDSB offers a trifecta of data backup, disaster recovery and infrastructure management.

The digital agency, Major Tom, demonstrates how companies need to be productizing services for eCommerce in order to cater to the needs of a post-COVID-19 business climate. Traditional businesses need to be selling their products and services using eCommerce and the tipping point is coming sooner than everybody thinks.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 02, 2020
As the world enters this new era, people and businesses are figuring out how to adapt to it. Aware that budget cuts are being made and people are overwhelmed with the feeling of uncertainty, it's crucial that business-to-business (B2B) companies must continue to evolve, innovate and explore incremental revenue streams while fulfilling client needs. People are going to be working from home more with irregular office hours. The stereotype of a 9-5, Monday-Friday desk job will become a thing of the past. Businesses need to be open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so customers can buy when they want to buy.
That is why Major Tom has taken complex services that they offer and productized a manageable chunk of each one that can then be purchased on their newly-launched eCommerce store The Tin Can.
By packaging individual service deliverables as a clearly-defined piece of work for a set price, B2B companies can provide new service offerings that fulfils the vastly different needs of today's clients. Selling these services on eCommerce platforms like Shopify or Amazon, allows users to purchase the productized services exactly when they want or need to. It also opens the digital door to more advertising opportunities through shopping ads thus allowing companies to further their reach and increase brand awareness. Most importantly, it creates a new revenue stream which is vital for survival, especially if COVID-19 has caused other revenue streams to dry up.
Productizing services is not new. Fiverr and TaskRabbit offer's thousands of productized-services, including Ikea's Assembly Services. However, this strategy is still highly uncommon amongst B2B companies and has never been done by an agency. It can be argued that focusing on transactional rather than value-add selling can lower the company's market position. However, businesses must understand the realities of the new business world and lean into the change. The lower price point, lower barriers to entry, and fast turnaround time of these value-packed offerings will attract clients. It also addresses a client's emotional needs by providing them with a sense of certainty by stating the price and deliverables at the very start.
With Major Tom's adapt-or-die mentality, the agency will show the industry how this is the way forward. By implementing the right strategy, building rapport, and providing quality of service, these short-term, quick-revenue relationships can evolve into long-term relationships as clients transition over to the organization's main services over time. This is how companies can survive the COVID-19 crisis, and thrive after it.

Built on artificial intelligence, "The Driver-Less Car" of anti-phishing technology has become so accurate that it can now classify and remove phishing threats with no human involvement

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL AND ATLANTA (PRWEB) APRIL 02, 2020
IRONSCALES, the pioneer of self-learning email security, today announced that Themis, its AI-driven virtual security analyst, now has the ability to be fully autonomous in the classification and removal of email threats. Since first being released in 2018, Themis has helped render verdicts against more than 100 million trending and zero-day phishing attacks, including some of the most complex techniques, such as polymorphism, business email compromise and ransomware. With today's news, security analysts can now measurably increase the speed and accuracy of their email security by allowing Themis to make time-sensitive decisions on email threat mitigation without any human involvement.
"Themis is an invaluable resource with its autonomic capabilities," said Vern Scoggins, CISO of IRONSCALES customer Polypore International. "We chose Themis because of the volume and level of sophistication of phishing emails is steadily increasing. The time it takes for an individual to analyze and respond to every phishing email is far too long."
Themis is part of IRONSCALES self-learning email security platform, which gives end users and security professionals the right training, tools, and intelligence, to hunt, log, alert, analyze, and remediate phishing attacks. In total, the virtual security email analyst is now more than 93% accurate in resolving incidents, giving SOC teams overwhelming confidence in her ability to make decisions autonomously.
Themis accuracy-level has increased exponentially due to IRONSCALES' approach of having humans and machines constantly working together. Specifically, IRONSCALES proprietary data labeling technology that assesses millions of technical data points is combined in real-time with human vetted decision making by security analysts. This ever-evolving ecosystem or feedback loop has provided Themis with the unprecedented intelligence needed to render highly accurate verdicts on email security incidents.
With Phishing Mitigation, Time is of the Essence
Today, the majority of enterprise SOCs lack the dedicated resources to detect, investigate and respond to suspicious emails as quickly as phishing mitigation demands. Additionally, the eruption of coronavirus has led to more employees across the globe working remotely, and cybercriminals are exploiting this dynamic with thousands of new attacks related to the virus, such as those purporting to deliver critical information from established sources like the World Health Organization.
To be effective against the growing email phishing threats, SOCs require both more automation and more human oversight. With Themis, IRONSCALES customers have access to the unique combination of artificial intelligence and real-time decision data from the world's largest community of security analysts, now boasting more than 1000 analysts and counting.
"Themis is not just automated, it's autonomic," said Eyal Benishti, IRONSCALES founder and CEO. "Never before have SOC teams had access to the combination of patented AI and years of human experience, in one resource. Themis acts as another member of the team. Without anyone ever having to think about, much less interact with her, Themis does her job."

The solution is based on a mix of traditional spinning media with ScaleFlux's computational storage card in a FatTwin server platform. FatTwin's dense four Rack unit four node platform has already been adopted by many Hadoop users. Details on the deployment and total cost of ownership savings will be available in a forthcoming white paper.
"As a global leader in enterprise computing, storage, networking solutions and green computing technology, we have a long standing relationship with ASA," said Raju Penumatcha, Supermicro Senior Vice President and Chief Product Officer. "We are very excited to enable this new product offering with ASA. We believe it represents an important step forward for Hadoop customers who want to maximize the efficiency and value of their deployments."
"Existing and potential customers have shown great interest in this solution particularly because it doesn't require any special application coding and works out of the box," says founder and CEO Arvind Bhargava. "We believe this will further enhance the value we bring to our customers and give them a competitive edge in a competitive market space."
"We are thrilled to lead Computational Storage to mainstream enterprise adoption," said Hao Zhong, CEO/Co-Founder ScaleFlux. "Two years ago we coined the term, last year we made our industry debut, and now we are at the front of a very large crowd. Our newest CSD 2000 Series products integrated with Supermicro FatTwin servers integrated and optimized by ASA will deliver immense value and optimal total cost of ownership."
This solution is available now and will be deployed shortly in the field.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) APRIL 02, 2020
Five Crowley tugboats recently worked together to load the LP Odyssey, a self-propelled, semi-submersible mobile spacecraft launch platform, onto a heavy-lift ship for Barber Moss Ship Management on behalf of Sea Launch/S7 Space. In less than 48 hours, Crowley tugs Master, Leader, Admiral, Veteran and Scout were successfully mobilized for this unique job, complied with customer and regulatory requirements, and began towing the platform from Los Angeles Harbor to an outside anchorage near Long Beach.
Once at anchorage, the 436-foot long by 220-foot wide platform, which called the Port of Long Beach home for more than 20 years, was to be floated onto the Xin Guang Hua heavy transport ship for final transport to the eastern coast of Russia, just south of Port of Vladivostok. Unfortunately, weather conditions and resulting sea swells at anchorage delayed the final set down of the platform onto the ship.
The Crowley tugs continued on stand by while authorities and Crowley's operations team developed an alternative solution. Shortly thereafter, it was determined that the best course of action was to move the platform and heavy-lift ship back inside the harbor break water to a suitable depth of water for the operation. In close coordination with local authorities and the U.S. Coast Guard, Crowley's operations team formulated a plan for a loading window that would minimize interruptions to other port traffic in the busiest port in the United States.
Two days after the initial attempt, the heavy-lift vessel was staged inside the break water under a Crowley tug escort, while the other four Crowley tugs positioned the LP Odyssey over the heavy-lift vessel, and the customer's operations team de-ballasted and fastened the LP Odyssey for transport.
"We are very proud of our crew, who did an excellent job of exceeding our customer's expectations despite the challenges of the operation and maintaining the highest level of flexible and safe operations," said Josh Ellis, vice president of operations and engineering, Crowley's marine services group. "Thanks to our excellent team, we were able to activate our vessels and position them onsite for this unique job very quickly. Our team, from shore to office, performed seamlessly together in the safe loading of the LP Odyssey onto the Xin Guang Hua."
Crowley's Master, Leader, Admiral, and Scout are 105-foot, U.S.-flagged, Harbor Class tractor tugs. They feature Voith Schneider, twin-cycloidal propulsion and a hydrofoil-shaped skeg that provides for greatly improved steering, control and seakeeping ability when the vessel runs at high speeds in the skeg-first direction. In addition, the unique hydrodynamics of the hull result in increased tons of steering and braking force, which are available to assist or control a vessel at higher speeds.
Crowley tug Veteran is one of two highly maneuverable, Valor Class tugs suitable for ship assist, tanker escort and general towing service. The tugs have Rolls Royce Aquamaster Z-drive units and can generate over 90 tons of direct bollard pull. The deep forward-skeg design of the hull results in excellent directional stability as well as providing additional indirect-pull for assist and escort operations. The Markey DEPC 52 bow winch has full render/recover capability, maximizing ship handling versatility and safety as well as allowing for full wheelhouse control.
About Crowley
Jacksonville-based Crowley Holdings Inc., a holding company of the 128-year-old Crowley Maritime Corporation, is a privately held family- and employee-owned company that provides marine solutions, energy and logistics services in domestic and international markets.

Canadian AI solutions developer presents newest technology that helps enterprises adopting AI to efficiently manage GPU clusters and optimize their compute and storage resources

SANTA CLARA, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 03, 2020
NVIDIA GTC Digital—Element AI, a global developer of artificial intelligence-powered (AI) services and software, today is showcasing its solutions lineup for NVIDIA GTC Digital 2020 online. Element AI CEO and Co-founder, JF Gagné presents "Enabling Human-Machine Collaboration", demonstrating how Element AI Orkestrator effectively schedules and allocates GPU clusters for optimal workload balancing on the NVIDIA GTC Inception Startup Showcase.
Element AI Orkestrator was designed for AI practitioners, and the IT staff that supports them, as a workload scheduling tool, built in response to the company's need to optimize its own computing resources. A software-as-a-service (SaaS) version of Element AI Orkestrator is available now, with an on-premises version expected in Spring 2020.
Element AI Orkestrator is the first product in a suite of tools from Element AI that will help organizations become AI-ready by accelerating the end-to-end process of building and deploying AI models and applications. NVIDIA and Element AI play crucial roles in helping end-users address growing computing power and storage requirements to accommodate heavier GPU-based workloads. Element AI Orkestrator helps manage the increasingly complex resource distribution and management that AI computing requires.
"Element AI Orkestrator has a lot of potential for customers who have made significant investments in their AI infrastructures," said John Barco, senior director of NVIDIA DGX software at NVIDIA. "Element AI Orkestrator can help end-users make the most efficient use and scale of their computing resources," added Barco.
Customers can future proof their IT infrastructures through optimized utilization of GPU clusters with Element AI Orkestrator. AI practitioners can build quality models and remove most of the engineering heavy lifting required to efficiently schedule and allocate GPU cluster usage.
"We originally created Element AI Orkestrator for our own internal data science teams and developers conducting AI research. The tool became so useful, our customers began requesting it," said Ludwig Gamache, Head of IT at Element AI. "Our own GPU usage is over 90 per cent on average; by using the Element AI Orkestrator tool we were able to grow our cluster by 36 times, yet required minimal additions to our IT staff," added Gamache.

The Online Room empowers preschools and early childhood education centers to stay open by easily providing engaging virtual classrooms to their families.

STROUDSBURG, PA. (PRWEB) APRIL 03, 2020
Across the country young children are facing something they can't understand. Four weeks ago they were in classrooms with their friends and teachers. They were learning, having show-and-tell, enjoying playtime, and internalizing all of the great life lessons preschool instills in them. Now, they're home all the time. Their parents and caregivers are facing a new reality: they're isolated, and any "end in sight" to this for them and their children is repeatedly pushed down the road.
In this new COVID-19 induced environment, preschools and ECE centers are having a hard time keeping their community of families together and finding a valuable way to continue to offer education to children enrolled in their schools. Distance learning is quickly becoming the go-to choice for programs who wish to continue providing kids with the education they need, while collecting the much-needed tuition that's critical for their schools.
The problem is that existing "make shift" options for preschools and ECE centers who want to build virtual classrooms are comprised of too many disjointed technologies, each with its own learning curve, integration issues, and costs. Preschools are faced with the idea of using email, apps, Facebook or blogs to reach parents; Dropbox or Google Drive for sharing downloads; and learning how to manage Zoom accounts and meetings settings to allow for proper interaction with the kids. They feel the strain of piecing together such a complicated system without guidance or support. Even when the preschool staff themselves are technologically savvy, it's hard for these preschools to get their families excited about having to check multiple locations every day.
Tiffany Torres and Brian Foy, who run a marketing company that works exclusively with preschools and ECE centers, heard so many concerns first hand, they decided to do something about it. They created The Online Room (https://theonlineroom.com): a revolutionary early childhood learning platform that empowers preschools and early childhood education centers to easily provide engaging virtual classrooms to their families. The Online Room offers integrated video conferencing, for both classes and on-demand play groups, a daily schedule, an events schedule, digital downloads, and a video library. Everything that parents and teachers need is on one page, secure, and accessible from a single login. For administrators, it's as simple to manage as filling out forms on a website, and for families it's as easy as logging in.
"Most existing distance learning platforms were aimed at K-12. There was no platform for ECE. The schools and centers we spoke to were exhausted trying to plan out how to make all the various pieces fit, provide enough value to allow them to continue to collect tuition, and get families to push all the right buttons at the right times to make it all work." says Tiffany, "All the while we hearing these stories about how lonely children are; missing their friends and their teachers... we had to do something. We had to offer these schools and ECE centers a simple solution that parents would love to use".
Centers using The Online Room love the new service. It allows them to stay open, regardless of what comes next. "It keeps us open, it keeps the bills paid, and, most importantly, we get to keep serving our children and their families," says a preschool owner and The Online Room client in Oregon. "Before we started using The Online Room, we were headed towards closing. Now we have families that are happy, and we're able to make a real difference."
Preschools and ECE centers interested in booking an online tour can do so here.
The Online Room is the premier platform to provide virtual classroom capabilities to preschools and early childhood education centers. Created by a dedicated team of ECE industry experts to easily allow preschools and ECE centers to continue serving their families during closings, shutdowns, and quarantines.

INFUSEmedia, a B2B demand generation company, announced it's extending a popular program to deliver free leads to companies experiencing declining demand for their products and services as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"On March 18, I announced a '100 Free Leads' program to help B2B companies affected by COVID-19 generate demand for their solutions and help curb revenue losses," explained CEO Alexander Kesler.
Over the last two weeks, INFUSEmedia agreed to provide 100 companies 100 B2B leads each—a total of 10,000 potential new business relationships—free of charge or obligation.
"The response was overwhelmingly positive—and often, moving," noted Mr. Kesler. "One marketing executive for a data management software company called our no-strings-attached offer to jump start their lead generation campaign—which they had to pause because of the crisis—a 'lifeline'."
In order to continue aiding B2B companies struggling to generate demand, INFUSEmedia is extending the 100 Free Leads program through the end of April—a timeline consistent with the federal guidelines for non-essential businesses to stay closed.
Organizations impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic can email INFUSEmedia at 100free@infusemedia.com for immediate consideration.
"I am impressed by the ingenious ways so many companies have mobilized to win this war," added Mr. Kesler. "We're grateful and proud to be in a position to do our part to help stabilize the economy."

Cambay Consulting believes that now is probably the best time for a company to quickly build capability to facilitate and accelerate remote work. There are so many business benefits of moving to a digital workplace in the cloud, because sometimes there are critical decisions which cannot be pushed back or postponed even during such tumultuous times.

HOUSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 04, 2020
In today's global situation, the dire need of the time is to ensure that growing businesses are protected from a turbulent economic and social environment. Large scale uncertainty not only impacts employees' health and productivity, but also the prospects of business continuity and financial results.
Doing things remotely or virtually is a critical path to protecting a business and its staff.
The better a company prepares and reacts to the transient, ever-changing reality, the lower its lasting impact will be. If you want to increase your organization's efficiency and productivity to unknown external variables, Cambay Consulting powered by Microsoft can help implement the latest applications and technologies to propel your workspace into the modern digital age. Many organizations are doing this as part of a wider modernisation plan, however recent events have driven them to accelerate their digital initiatives.
Tech Leader, Cambay Consulting, has always kept the latent needs of its clients in mind and accordingly creates solutions that cater to their immediate requirements. Cambay takes pride in now launching its "Work from Home Solutions, powered by Microsoft to empower clients to provide their employees with tools and applications, so they can work safely and securely from anywhere. To make sure employees stay productive regardless of their work environment, Cambay Consulting helps an organization to adopt the use of advanced collaboration software, Microsoft Teams, which is a unified communication and collaboration platform that combines persistent workplace chat, video meetings, file storage, and application integration.
Cambay Consulting believes that now is probably the best time for a company to quickly build capability to facilitate and accelerate remote work. There are so many business benefits of moving to a digital workplace in the cloud, because sometimes there are critical decisions which cannot be pushed back or postponed even during such tumultuous times.
In the future too, situations may arise which will require people to work remotely, as we see more and more city slickers wanting to go back to the grassroots to reconnect with nature and its elements. Here remote location working will emerge as the next big alternative method of working where companies can still work at full throttle irrespective of where their employees are located. It's not too far away when employees will work from the confines of their homes, or from their countryside lodges, or from other unconventional places at their own convenience. Geography is truly history today and any place with an internet connection is a place which is a potential office for employees.
Since Teams is a fully cloud-based solution, the move to the cloud is seamless. Being able to access information from anywhere on any device is certainly a huge business benefit.
In addition, with the workplace on the cloud, a business can reap the benefits of big data processing and Artificial Intelligence to work smarter.
The newly launched quickstart "Work from Home Solutions by Cambay, powered by Microsoft Cloud technology is very scalable and CAPEX-light. Cambay Consulting helps to ensure that businesses worldwide don't have to hit the pause button, irrespective of external circumstances - be it manmade or natural calamities of any scale. Anyone can work from wherever they want with the help of Microsoft Teams despite cancellations, freezes and lockdowns. Teams increases an organization's overall productivity by making all collaborations - conversations, chats, online meetings, shared files, tasks, etc. available in one single app and one single interface. In addition to the widely used apps from Microsoft, there are a wide range of 3rd party apps that integrate into Teams so that employees never have to leave the Teams app to get their work done.
The top advantage and the reason for a spike in the usage of remote communication tools like Microsoft Teams is that it helps various stakeholders to work as smoothly and seamlessly, from anywhere in the world, as they would if they were working in the same conference room.

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 06, 2020
A new era for game developers has dawned: small and indie game studios can now compete against triple-A studios with the support of real-time technology.
Bright Memory: Infinite, a fusion of FPS and action genres created by a solo developer at FYQD-Studio, has found success and popularity since its January 2019 launch viaEarly Access on Steam. It received an Unreal Dev Grant in 2019 and was presented by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang at GTC China 2019.The developer, Zeng Xiancheng, lays out the behind-the-scenes story on how he achieved a spectacular looking game – with the help of Unreal Engine, NVIDIA RTX, and real-time animation tools: iClone and Character Creator.
Developer Zeng Xiancheng is currently working on content for Bright Memory: Infinite, which is slated for release by the end of 2020. He hopes fans continue to stay tuned for the launch. In this article, Zeng shares how he was able to produce the game all by himself with a very limited budget and manpower.

How was he able to produce this game by himself?

Zeng Xiancheng has been working on Bright Memory since 2015. He has been working on the art for the 3D scenes for seven years, as he has always been insistent on delivering astonishing game scenes.
The planning and conceptual phase of Bright Memory took about a year to complete. The script took about 15 to 20 days to conceptualize, and the game character creation took only two months to complete, with the environmental art taking the most time of all (70% of the production schedule) with a total of about eight months for the Early Access version of the game.
Zeng reveals that the main reason he was able to cut down the character creation timeline to around two months was thanks to Reallusion's real-time animation software iClone, Character Creator, and iPhone facial - mocap.
Along with iClone's new Unreal Live Link plug-in, which significantly helped him during production, he was able to fast track workflows for camera direction, lighting parameters, and other tasks which can easily be imported into Unreal Engine with a single click.

iPhone facial mocap saves a significant amount of both time and money

Having struggled with character facial animations, Zeng tried out many kinds of 3D animation software, and the results were not ideal. The various software was also difficult to use. Luckily he discovered iClone and its many animation features.
Zeng says, "I find many aspects of iClone to be on par with professional production-quality software. My favorite example is the ability to input dialogue audio and have iClone automatically generate the lip-sync animations for my characters, which saved me from having to animate the talking animations by hand. Having the ability to capture facial motions in real time with iPhone facial mocap (LIVE FACE plug-in) allows tight-budget indie game developers such as myself to quickly create character animations."

Generate a game character in just a few hours with Character Creator & Headshot AI

Zeng is currently working on Bright Memory: Infinite (the full release version of the game), aiming to complete the game by the end of 2020. He generates character models using Character Creator 3 in order to reduce production time to ten days per character.
With the application of the new Headshot AI plug-in, and in combination with a high-definition camera, he can generate digital human faces with ease. Integrate that using Character Creator 3, and one can build characters in just a few hours.
About FYQD-Studio
Based in Guangxi, China, FYQD-Studio is a one-man game development studio, with Bright Memory being its first published title.

RICHMOND, VA. (PRWEB) APRIL 06, 2020
Clareto, an innovator in acquiring electronic health data for insurance underwriting and claims processes, today announced its partnership with Diameter Health, developer of the leading platform for clinical data normalization and enhancement. Clareto will now offer an additional product, powered by Diameter Health's technology, to significantly improve the look, feel and usability of electronic health data acquired through the Clareto network of HIEs, provider organizations, and technology vendors.
Clareto recognized that existing health records have a lot information that can be duplicative or not important for the insurance use case, making it difficult to digest and time-consuming for end-users to review. Combining multiple records from different sources magnifies these problems. It sought a technology partner that would provide insurance carriers with the clean, reliable clinical data needed to make accurate risk assessments and adjudicate claims. It ultimately selected Diameter Health for its platform's ability to cleanse and enrich clinical data from any certified EHR – and for the company's proven success with dozens of the nation's leading HIEs as well as national and regional health plans.
"The insurance industry has access to more clinical information than ever before, but end-users aren't able to derive much value when they have to trudge through disorganized, redundant data," said Dave Dorans, CEO at Clareto. "We're excited to work with Diameter Health to deliver clean clinical insights across our entire network so our customers can modernize the underwriting processes and accelerate their time-to-value."
Now working with Diameter Health, Clareto will provide clients with a carrier-friendly view of clinical data that is normalized, consolidated, enriched and deduplicated. This output reduces the likelihood of a carrier missing a crucial condition or impairment by highlighting abnormal or critical pieces of information. The improved presentation of the data will allow carriers to both expedite their review of records and enable more accurate decision-making.
"Just as we have seen with our health insurance customers, life and disability insurance carriers face the same data quality challenges that arise from the variability that pervades the healthcare data ecosystem," said Eric Rosow, CEO at Diameter Health. "We look forward to working with Clareto to relieve administrative burden so analysts and underwriters in its network have easy access to the information they need, when they need it."
About Clareto
MedVirginia, Inc., doing business as Clareto, has been a long-time innovator in the field of health information exchange. Today, the combination digital health and insurtech company is translating its unique history and experience in healthcare interoperability to commercialize novel use cases and pursue emerging market opportunities, with an initial focus on modernizing insurance underwriting and claims processes. Based in Richmond, Virginia, Clareto is led by a multi-disciplinary management team with deep expertise in the healthcare and insurance sectors.

Entry and exit monitoring are necessary but not sufficient; DeCurtis Shield can use that health metadata to track and report on the location of 'at risk' individuals and those they may have interacted with. This introduces the revolutionary ability to proactively monitor and protect the health of all souls onboard.
"We have been working tirelessly to assist industries impacted by COVID-19," said Derek Fournier, President, DeCurtis Corporation. "The current health pandemic will impact how all industries deal with health and safety issues moving forward. Being able to extend the perimeter safely while also enabling tracking the location of those potentially ill will give medical teams new tools in the fight against shipboard outbreaks."
DeCurtis Shield is part of a suite that effectively collects basic health information through facial recognition and thermal imaging to assess temperature via standalone kiosks. When integrated with the DXP, that health data can be layered on in a secure fashion to enable proactive measures in the event of potential illness. The most powerful implementation of the DeCurtis Shield Suite is when it is deployed in an environment enabled with the DXP Location Solution. Shield can then provide both real-time and historical indoor location timelines to address potential outbreaks, assess risks from known interactions and strategically plan for cleaning protocols.
"DeCurtis has extended the world's most sophisticated indoor location solution and extended it to improve the health and safety of any complex indoor environment," said David DeCurtis, CEO, DeCurtis Corporation.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
Terra Dotta, the leader in higher education travel, study abroad and international program management solutions, today announced that its Travel Registry with AlertTraveler solution was named a 2020 SIIA CODiE Award finalist in the Best Emerging Education Technology Solution for Administrators category.

"AlertTraveler and Travel Registry helped make our Coronavirus emergency response abroad possible," said Holly Carter, Director of Education Abroad, University of Evansville. "We quickly used tools to locate students, create final checkouts, and then to get quick data updates for the entire team, especially our president. We have been asked a million questions that no one ever anticipated, and we were able to get the answers quickly."
Earlier this year, in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Terra Dotta made available to all customers a complimentary version of AlertTraveler, which is typically only available as part of Terra Dotta Travel Registry. The complimentary version of AlertTraveler provides institutions universal access to view emergency alerts across all regions where they have known travelers to help track the coronavirus and other alerts, as well as help institutions aid affected students and faculty.
"We are proud to be recognized as a leading ed tech solution, and the past few months have proven the need for close communication and coordination from colleges and universities with their traveling students and faculty," said Anthony Rotoli, CEO, Terra Dotta. "Duty of care emergency info is at the forefront of international education professionals' minds and is critical in helping travelers in real time in case of an emergency."
The SIIA CODiE Awards are the industry's only peer-reviewed awards program. Educators and administrators serve as judges and conduct the first-round review of all education nominees. Their scores determine the SIIA CODiE Award finalists and account for 80 percent of the overall score. SIIA members then vote on the finalist products.

INDIANAPOLIS (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
Scale Computing, a market leader in edge computing, virtualization and hyperconverged solutions, achieved record revenue in Q1 driven by the manufacturing, healthcare and grocery verticals. There was also continued growth from local government and education customers who have seen IT demands skyrocket due to the coronavirus pandemic that has led to work-from-home/teach-from-home requirements. Bookings grew for Q1 in a year-over-year comparison. In the challenging environment of COVID-19, the company turned its focus to ensuring customers' infrastructure held firm as workers around the world moved to new remote conditions.
"Q1 was a challenging quarter for everyone, but more than ever customers see the need to do more with less due to tighter budgets as a response to the economic slowdown, resulting from global shelter-in-place orders. Scale Computing's self-healing, autonomous application infrastructure is playing a key role as customers adapt to the new normal. Ease of use, remote management and total cost of ownership matter more now than ever," said Jeff Ready, CEO and co-founder of Scale Computing.
In March, Scale Computing quickly pivoted to assist customers with urgent needs to enable their employees to work remotely, leveraging technology with partner Leostream. Customers have shown great interest in both the short-term solution, as well as investing in a broader VDI solution once immediate IT needs are met. Scale Computing customers have found this solution to be successful.
"The greatest feeling in my job was to tell my management at the hospital that we were ready for remote work from day one thanks to the hyperconverged VDI system from Scale Computing and Leostream. I had a user come back to me overjoyed about being able to see her same desktop from home that she sees at work. For a small hospital this has been a game changer over the last few weeks. Thanks again to the wonderful people at Scale Computing and Leostream for all the great teamwork," said Ernest Wallace, Computer Technician, Horizon Health.
"Thousands of customers like Horizon Health were planning ahead when they adopted HC3, knowing that new technologies, like Scale Computing's self-healing platform, would dramatically lower costs. It is through customer successes like this that Scale Computing was selected as both the #1 virtualization and the #1 hyper-converged solution by CRN's reseller community at the end of 2019. As our customers face the current crisis, they have the latest technology at their backs, enabling them to focus on the needs of their users while the infrastructure takes care of itself at a fraction of the previous cost," said Ready. "We feel that the fundamentals of our business are strong and that we are well positioned to help organizations get through this current crisis. Our technology solves a need for customers - it strengthens and simplifies their IT infrastructure - which is something customers need even during these difficult times and will continue to need when the economy recovers."
Additional Updates:

Scale Computing recently announced that in addition to its standard Acronis offering, Acronis Cloud Storage has been selected as an offering for customers. The easy-to-use cloud subscription from Acronis gives Scale Computing HC3 customers a powerful, highly available, hybrid redundant backup storage solution delivering disaster recovery protection and cyber threat mitigation.

The company announced a strategic partnership with ADN Distribution GmbH, one of Germany's leading Value Added Distributors. The agreement enables ADN to offer Scale Computing's award-winning HC3 series to its channel partners across Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

CRN, a brand of The Channel Company, has given Scale Computing a 5-Star rating in its 2020 Partner Program Guide. This rating recognizes an elite subset of companies that offer solution providers the best partnering elements in their channel programs

About Scale Computing

EAST SETAUKET, N.Y. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
The December 2019 inauguration of the Gökmen Space and Aviation Center in Bursa, Turkey, marks an aerospace milestone for Turkey and the Eastern Mediterranean region. This state-of-the-art educational center relied on Penetron waterproofing technology for a durable concrete foundation.
Located in northwestern Turkey, about 150 km south of Istanbul, Bursa is the country's largest manufacturing center and fourth largest city, with a population of just under two million inhabitants.
"Bursa is already the industrial capital of the country, thanks to its automotive, machinery and textile sectors," says Jozef Van Beeck, International Sales & Marketing Director of The Penetron Group. "Beginning now, with the opening of the new Gökmen Space and Aviation Center, the region is set to also become the leader in the aerospace and defense industries in Turkey."
The Gökmen Space and Aviation Center (GUHEM), part of the Bursa Technology Organized Industrial Zone (TEKNOSAB), was developed by the Bursa Metropolitan Municipality and Turkey's Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology (TUBITAK).
Raising Interest in Aerospace
GUHEM is aimed primarily at raising public awareness of space exploration and the possibility of careers in aerospace. The Center features 154 interactive installations, aerospace learning centers, space innovation centers and vertical wind tunnels. Lectures on atmospheric events, the planets of the solar system and galaxies, and even a gravity-free zone are all specifically designed to attract a young audience and motivate them to consider a future in the aerospace industry.
The US $40 million GUHEM project is the largest space and aviation center in Europe and one of the five largest such facilities in the world, with a total area of approximately 13,000 m2. During the planning phase, the local Penetron experts were asked to advise on the construction of the concrete foundation planned for GUHEM.
Question of Experience
"The area's high-water table demanded a waterproofing solution that would provide a durable below-grade structure for the new education center," adds Haluk Taylan, Managing Partner of PENEKIM Turkey. "With many successfully completed projects in the Bursa area, Penetron crystalline technology enjoys a solid reputation with the design and construction community. This caught the attention of the project contractor."
The PENETRON System was specified to treat GUHEM's foundation slab. Bursa Beton, the ready-mix supplier, provided the 3,000 m3 of concrete needed for the pour. PENEBAR SW waterstops were installed to seal all non-moving construction joints.
The Penetron Group is a leading manufacturer of specialty construction products for concrete waterproofing, concrete repairs and floor preparation systems. The Group operates through a global network, offering support to the design and construction community through its regional offices, representatives and distribution channels.

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 06, 2020
A new era for game developers has dawned: small and indie game studios can now compete against triple-A studios with the support of real-time technology.
Bright Memory: Infinite, a fusion of FPS and action genres created by a solo developer at FYQD-Studio, has found success and popularity since its January 2019 launch viaEarly Access on Steam. It received an Unreal Dev Grant in 2019 and was presented by NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang at GTC China 2019.The developer, Zeng Xiancheng, lays out the behind-the-scenes story on how he achieved a spectacular looking game – with the help of Unreal Engine, NVIDIA RTX, and real-time animation tools: iClone and Character Creator.
Developer Zeng Xiancheng is currently working on content for Bright Memory: Infinite, which is slated for release by the end of 2020. He hopes fans continue to stay tuned for the launch. In this article, Zeng shares how he was able to produce the game all by himself with a very limited budget and manpower.

How was he able to produce this game by himself?

Zeng Xiancheng has been working on Bright Memory since 2015. He has been working on the art for the 3D scenes for seven years, as he has always been insistent on delivering astonishing game scenes.
The planning and conceptual phase of Bright Memory took about a year to complete. The script took about 15 to 20 days to conceptualize, and the game character creation took only two months to complete, with the environmental art taking the most time of all (70% of the production schedule) with a total of about eight months for the Early Access version of the game.
Zeng reveals that the main reason he was able to cut down the character creation timeline to around two months was thanks to Reallusion's real-time animation software iClone, Character Creator, and iPhone facial - mocap.
Along with iClone's new Unreal Live Link plug-in, which significantly helped him during production, he was able to fast track workflows for camera direction, lighting parameters, and other tasks which can easily be imported into Unreal Engine with a single click.

iPhone facial mocap saves a significant amount of both time and money

Having struggled with character facial animations, Zeng tried out many kinds of 3D animation software, and the results were not ideal. The various software was also difficult to use. Luckily he discovered iClone and its many animation features.
Zeng says, "I find many aspects of iClone to be on par with professional production-quality software. My favorite example is the ability to input dialogue audio and have iClone automatically generate the lip-sync animations for my characters, which saved me from having to animate the talking animations by hand. Having the ability to capture facial motions in real time with iPhone facial mocap (LIVE FACE plug-in) allows tight-budget indie game developers such as myself to quickly create character animations."

Generate a game character in just a few hours with Character Creator & Headshot AI

Zeng is currently working on Bright Memory: Infinite (the full release version of the game), aiming to complete the game by the end of 2020. He generates character models using Character Creator 3 in order to reduce production time to ten days per character.
With the application of the new Headshot AI plug-in, and in combination with a high-definition camera, he can generate digital human faces with ease. Integrate that using Character Creator 3, and one can build characters in just a few hours.
About FYQD-Studio
Based in Guangxi, China, FYQD-Studio is a one-man game development studio, with Bright Memory being its first published title.

RICHMOND, VA. (PRWEB) APRIL 06, 2020
Clareto, an innovator in acquiring electronic health data for insurance underwriting and claims processes, today announced its partnership with Diameter Health, developer of the leading platform for clinical data normalization and enhancement. Clareto will now offer an additional product, powered by Diameter Health's technology, to significantly improve the look, feel and usability of electronic health data acquired through the Clareto network of HIEs, provider organizations, and technology vendors.
Clareto recognized that existing health records have a lot information that can be duplicative or not important for the insurance use case, making it difficult to digest and time-consuming for end-users to review. Combining multiple records from different sources magnifies these problems. It sought a technology partner that would provide insurance carriers with the clean, reliable clinical data needed to make accurate risk assessments and adjudicate claims. It ultimately selected Diameter Health for its platform's ability to cleanse and enrich clinical data from any certified EHR – and for the company's proven success with dozens of the nation's leading HIEs as well as national and regional health plans.
"The insurance industry has access to more clinical information than ever before, but end-users aren't able to derive much value when they have to trudge through disorganized, redundant data," said Dave Dorans, CEO at Clareto. "We're excited to work with Diameter Health to deliver clean clinical insights across our entire network so our customers can modernize the underwriting processes and accelerate their time-to-value."
Now working with Diameter Health, Clareto will provide clients with a carrier-friendly view of clinical data that is normalized, consolidated, enriched and deduplicated. This output reduces the likelihood of a carrier missing a crucial condition or impairment by highlighting abnormal or critical pieces of information. The improved presentation of the data will allow carriers to both expedite their review of records and enable more accurate decision-making.
"Just as we have seen with our health insurance customers, life and disability insurance carriers face the same data quality challenges that arise from the variability that pervades the healthcare data ecosystem," said Eric Rosow, CEO at Diameter Health. "We look forward to working with Clareto to relieve administrative burden so analysts and underwriters in its network have easy access to the information they need, when they need it."
About Clareto
MedVirginia, Inc., doing business as Clareto, has been a long-time innovator in the field of health information exchange. Today, the combination digital health and insurtech company is translating its unique history and experience in healthcare interoperability to commercialize novel use cases and pursue emerging market opportunities, with an initial focus on modernizing insurance underwriting and claims processes. Based in Richmond, Virginia, Clareto is led by a multi-disciplinary management team with deep expertise in the healthcare and insurance sectors.

ORLANDO, FLA. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
DeCurtis Corporation, the leader in proximity-based guest experience solutions and brand enhancement through transformational experience technology, is excited to announce a new suite in the DeCurtis Experience Platform (DXP) family: DeCurtis Shield. DeCurtis Shield is designed to be easily and quickly implemented as a standalone system to collect temperature at entry and exit points to help mitigate the spread of illness. Entry and exit monitoring are necessary but not sufficient; DeCurtis Shield can use that health metadata to track and report on the location of 'at risk' individuals and those they may have interacted with. This introduces the revolutionary ability to proactively monitor and protect the health of all souls onboard.
"We have been working tirelessly to assist industries impacted by COVID-19," said Derek Fournier, President, DeCurtis Corporation. "The current health pandemic will impact how all industries deal with health and safety issues moving forward. Being able to extend the perimeter safely while also enabling tracking the location of those potentially ill will give medical teams new tools in the fight against shipboard outbreaks."
DeCurtis Shield is part of a suite that effectively collects basic health information through facial recognition and thermal imaging to assess temperature via standalone kiosks. When integrated with the DXP, that health data can be layered on in a secure fashion to enable proactive measures in the event of potential illness. The most powerful implementation of the DeCurtis Shield Suite is when it is deployed in an environment enabled with the DXP Location Solution. Shield can then provide both real-time and historical indoor location timelines to address potential outbreaks, assess risks from known interactions and strategically plan for cleaning protocols.
"DeCurtis has extended the world's most sophisticated indoor location solution and extended it to improve the health and safety of any complex indoor environment," said David DeCurtis, CEO, DeCurtis Corporation. "We believe DeCurtis Shield can be of immediate assistance in a multi-faceted approach to mitigating the spread of illness, whether on a cruise ship or any other controlled indoor environment."

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
Terra Dotta, the leader in higher education travel, study abroad and international program management solutions, today announced that its Travel Registry with AlertTraveler solution was named a 2020 SIIA CODiE Award finalist in the Best Emerging Education Technology Solution for Administrators category.
Terra Dotta Travel Registry is a real-time, cloud-based travel risk management system for college administrators that automatically notifies affected students and school administrators when there is a critical local incident abroad. Travel Registry includes Terra Dotta's AlertTraveler mobile app, which provides travelers regional alerts and quick-dial emergency services numbers. Campus administrators have direct access to travelers' itineraries and GPS data to determine who is affected so they can send institution-specific alerts and serve as a command center for locating, communicating with and reporting on travelers.
"AlertTraveler and Travel Registry helped make our Coronavirus emergency response abroad possible," said Holly Carter, Director of Education Abroad, University of Evansville. "We quickly used tools to locate students, create final checkouts, and then to get quick data updates for the entire team, especially our president. We have been asked a million questions that no one ever anticipated, and we were able to get the answers quickly."
Earlier this year, in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Terra Dotta made available to all customers a complimentary version of AlertTraveler, which is typically only available as part of Terra Dotta Travel Registry. The complimentary version of AlertTraveler provides institutions universal access to view emergency alerts across all regions where they have known travelers to help track the coronavirus and other alerts, as well as help institutions aid affected students and faculty.
"We are proud to be recognized as a leading ed tech solution, and the past few months have proven the need for close communication and coordination from colleges and universities with their traveling students and faculty," said Anthony Rotoli, CEO, Terra Dotta. "Duty of care emergency info is at the forefront of international education professionals' minds and is critical in helping travelers in real time in case of an emergency."
The SIIA CODiE Awards are the industry's only peer-reviewed awards program. Educators and administrators serve as judges and conduct the first-round review of all education nominees. Their scores determine the SIIA CODiE Award finalists and account for 80 percent of the overall score. SIIA members then vote on the finalist products. The scores from both rounds are tabulated to select the winners.
Education Technology category winners will be announced during an online winner announcement celebration May 19, 2020.

INDIANAPOLIS (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
Scale Computing, a market leader in edge computing, virtualization and hyperconverged solutions, achieved record revenue in Q1 driven by the manufacturing, healthcare and grocery verticals. There was also continued growth from local government and education customers who have seen IT demands skyrocket due to the coronavirus pandemic that has led to work-from-home/teach-from-home requirements. Bookings grew for Q1 in a year-over-year comparison. In the challenging environment of COVID-19, the company turned its focus to ensuring customers' infrastructure held firm as workers around the world moved to new remote conditions.
"Q1 was a challenging quarter for everyone, but more than ever customers see the need to do more with less due to tighter budgets as a response to the economic slowdown, resulting from global shelter-in-place orders. Scale Computing's self-healing, autonomous application infrastructure is playing a key role as customers adapt to the new normal. Ease of use, remote management and total cost of ownership matter more now than ever," said Jeff Ready, CEO and co-founder of Scale Computing.
In March, Scale Computing quickly pivoted to assist customers with urgent needs to enable their employees to work remotely, leveraging technology with partner Leostream. Customers have shown great interest in both the short-term solution, as well as investing in a broader VDI solution once immediate IT needs are met. Scale Computing customers have found this solution to be successful.
"The greatest feeling in my job was to tell my management at the hospital that we were ready for remote work from day one thanks to the hyperconverged VDI system from Scale Computing and Leostream. I had a user come back to me overjoyed about being able to see her same desktop from home that she sees at work. For a small hospital this has been a game changer over the last few weeks. Thanks again to the wonderful people at Scale Computing and Leostream for all the great teamwork," said Ernest Wallace, Computer Technician, Horizon Health.
"Thousands of customers like Horizon Health were planning ahead when they adopted HC3, knowing that new technologies, like Scale Computing's self-healing platform, would dramatically lower costs. It is through customer successes like this that Scale Computing was selected as both the #1 virtualization and the #1 hyper-converged solution by CRN's reseller community at the end of 2019. As our customers face the current crisis, they have the latest technology at their backs, enabling them to focus on the needs of their users while the infrastructure takes care of itself at a fraction of the previous cost," said Ready. "We feel that the fundamentals of our business are strong and that we are well positioned to help organizations get through this current crisis. Our technology solves a need for customers - it strengthens and simplifies their IT infrastructure - which is something customers need even during these difficult times and will continue to need when the economy recovers."
Additional Updates:

Scale Computing recently announced that in addition to its standard Acronis offering, Acronis Cloud Storage has been selected as an offering for customers. The easy-to-use cloud subscription from Acronis gives Scale Computing HC3 customers a powerful, highly available, hybrid redundant backup storage solution delivering disaster recovery protection and cyber threat mitigation.

The company announced a strategic partnership with ADN Distribution GmbH, one of Germany's leading Value Added Distributors. The agreement enables ADN to offer Scale Computing's award-winning HC3 series to its channel partners across Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

CRN, a brand of The Channel Company, has given Scale Computing a 5-Star rating in its 2020 Partner Program Guide. This rating recognizes an elite subset of companies that offer solution providers the best partnering elements in their channel programs

About Scale Computing
Scale Computing is a leader in edge computing, virtualization, and hyperconverged solutions. Scale Computing HC3 software eliminates the need for traditional virtualization software, disaster recovery software, servers, and shared storage, replacing these with a fully integrated, highly available system for running applications. Using patented HyperCore technology, the HC3 self-healing platform automatically identifies, mitigates, and corrects infrastructure problems in real-time, enabling applications to achieve maximum uptime. When ease-of-use, high availability, and TCO matter, Scale Computing HC3 is the ideal infrastructure platform.

EAST SETAUKET, N.Y. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
The December 2019 inauguration of the Gökmen Space and Aviation Center in Bursa, Turkey, marks an aerospace milestone for Turkey and the Eastern Mediterranean region. This state-of-the-art educational center relied on Penetron waterproofing technology for a durable concrete foundation.
Located in northwestern Turkey, about 150 km south of Istanbul, Bursa is the country's largest manufacturing center and fourth largest city, with a population of just under two million inhabitants.
"Bursa is already the industrial capital of the country, thanks to its automotive, machinery and textile sectors," says Jozef Van Beeck, International Sales & Marketing Director of The Penetron Group. "Beginning now, with the opening of the new Gökmen Space and Aviation Center, the region is set to also become the leader in the aerospace and defense industries in Turkey."
The Gökmen Space and Aviation Center (GUHEM), part of the Bursa Technology Organized Industrial Zone (TEKNOSAB), was developed by the Bursa Metropolitan Municipality and Turkey's Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology (TUBITAK).
Raising Interest in Aerospace
GUHEM is aimed primarily at raising public awareness of space exploration and the possibility of careers in aerospace. The Center features 154 interactive installations, aerospace learning centers, space innovation centers and vertical wind tunnels. Lectures on atmospheric events, the planets of the solar system and galaxies, and even a gravity-free zone are all specifically designed to attract a young audience and motivate them to consider a future in the aerospace industry.
The US $40 million GUHEM project is the largest space and aviation center in Europe and one of the five largest such facilities in the world, with a total area of approximately 13,000 m2. During the planning phase, the local Penetron experts were asked to advise on the construction of the concrete foundation planned for GUHEM.
Question of Experience
"The area's high-water table demanded a waterproofing solution that would provide a durable below-grade structure for the new education center," adds Haluk Taylan, Managing Partner of PENEKIM Turkey. "With many successfully completed projects in the Bursa area, Penetron crystalline technology enjoys a solid reputation with the design and construction community. This caught the attention of the project contractor."
The PENETRON System was specified to treat GUHEM's foundation slab. Bursa Beton, the ready-mix supplier, provided the 3,000 m3 of concrete needed for the pour. PENEBAR SW waterstops were installed to seal all non-moving construction joints.
The Penetron Group is a leading manufacturer of specialty construction products for concrete waterproofing, concrete repairs and floor preparation systems. The Group operates through a global network, offering support to the design and construction community through its regional offices, representatives and distribution channels.

ANNAPOLIS, MD. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
RXNT, a leader in healthcare technology solutions, in partnership with Appriss Health, is announcing a new feature that gives physicians direct access to state prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMPs). Healthcare providers using RXNT's Electronic Health Records and Electronic Prescribing will be better equipped to identify and prevent substance abuse.
A PDMP is an electronic database for tracking controlled substance prescriptions in each state. They provide prescribers with timely and accurate information about patient behaviors and protect those at the highest risk. Every state (except Missouri) and the District of Columbia have a PDMP.
The alliance between RXNT and Appriss Health gives practitioners the ability to better monitor and manage controlled substance prescriptions 24/7 from anywhere. According to the U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 70,000 Americans died from a drug overdose in 2019. Over 770,000 died in the 10-year period from 1999-2019.
"Our technology solutions are already one of the most user- and budget-friendly systems in the ambulatory care marketplace today. We're excited to be able to combine Appriss' leading-edge data analytics with our proven EHR and eRx solutions.

PRINCETON, N.J. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
OpenLegacy, the leader in delivering microservices-based API integration and management for core and legacy systems, is speeding digital transformation of one of the United States' largest banks by seamlessly integrating its mainframe into its new digital platform.
The bank is part of the fifth biggest banking group in the world, offering personal, business, commercial, and private banking services in branches across California, Washington, and Oregon.
OpenLegacy takes any core system to the web, mobile, or cloud by connecting directly to the legacy system, automatically generating APIs, and then enabling rapid deployment virtually anywhere using microservices.
Incorporating significant mainframe workloads into their new Kafka-based, event-driven architecture was the biggest obstacle in the bank's digital transformation journey. Due to complex layers of middleware, the project was expected to take months.
The OpenLegacy technology changed the mainframe from a business burden into a business enabler by streamlining communication initiated both inside and outside the legacy system, completely bypassing the middleware. OpenLegacy's platform includes unique new functionality called the API Caller that allows the mainframe to initiate calls to digital services. Within two short weeks of the pilot, five different use cases were already up and running.
"With OpenLegacy, the bank was able to bypass its out-of-date, hard-to-work-with middleware stack to connect its legacy system to its new digital platform," said Zeev Avidan, OpenLegacy Chief Product Officer. "By automatically generating the code to create microservice-based APIs that can be deployed anywhere, OpenLegacy helped them minimize complexity, lower total cost of ownership, and improve API speed and performance."
OpenLegacy supported the bank's new architecture in record time, with complete adherence to agile and DevOps principles. It also maximized the value of existing hardware, helping the bank attain lower processor and memory consumption than other solutions offered.
About OpenLegacy
OpenLegacy's Digital-Driven Integration enables organizations with legacy systems to release new digital services faster and more efficiently than ever before. It connects directly to even the most complex legacy systems, bypassing the need for extra layers of technology. It then automatically generates APIs in minutes, rapidly integrating those assets into new and exciting innovations. Finally, it deploys them as standard microservices or serverless functions, giving organizations speed and flexibility while drastically cutting costs and resources. With OpenLegacy, industry-leading companies release new apps, features, and updates in days instead of months, enabling them to truly become digital to the core. http://www.openlegacy.com.

Unlike traditional APM tools, Instana's automated Application Performance Monitoring (APM) solution discovers all application service components and application infrastructure, including Cloud infrastructure such as Azure, orchestration infrastructure like Kubernetes and Docker, application services and DevOps processes. Instana automatically deploys monitoring sensors for each part of the application technology stack and traces all application requests – without requiring any human configuration or even application restarts. The solution detects application and infrastructure changes in real-time, adjusting its own models and visualizing the changes and impacts to performance in seconds.
A key part of that automation is enabled through the company's Dynamic Graph, an advanced uber-model that includes dependencies, individual infrastructure health profiles, configuration information and performance information – all updated in real-time as the system changes. The release of Context Guide marks the first time that users can actually use the dynamic graph for themselves to navigate across the application and infrastructure visualizations that are the heart of Instana's Application Performance Monitoring solution.
"Container orchestration and service-oriented architecture have helped us improve on scalability and reliability of our applications for our customers. But they've also introduced more complexity which makes it difficult to get the visibility we want for effectively monitoring performance," said Tobias Otto, Technical Lead at INFORM, GmbH. "While Instana has always helped us deal with that complexity, the new Context Guide allows us to actually navigate through it in an easy and intuitive way. The new Context Guide didn't need any introduction; people just started using it, making it even easier to look at the entire nature of an individual problematic application component, from downstream dependencies to the application infrastructure with a few clicks."
The Dynamic Graph is a key component of Instana's automated and AI-powered features. More than just a model, the dynamic graph is an inventory of all individual entities, configuration data, performance metrics, dependencies and change logs – all wrapped up in one – and with every other entity in the system.
The latest in a series of product releases designed to help Dev and Ops teams optimize performance of their applications, today's announcement provides deeper information, specifically situational context, about each service, relationships between services and the overall application. With Context Guide, now users can quickly traverse from user requests to slow transactions to problematic software or infrastructure with just a few clicks.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
Award-winning consumer and small business cybersecurity company, BullGuard today announced the availability of a free, three-month minimum BullGuard Small Office Security license* for small businesses that need assistance managing their cybersecurity in the wake of the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent sudden mass migration of millions of employees who are now working from home.
The free, three-month minimum license of BullGuard Small Office Security comes with no financial obligations whatsoever and small businesses don't need to submit any form of credit card payment information to obtain their three-month cybersecurity software license. The BullGuard Small Office Security platform supports up to 50 Windows, Mac and Android devices and provides robust endpoint cybersecurity protection for desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones, making it perfect for remote workforces to work safely on their devices from home.
"Small businesses are in a very challenging position right now, making the sudden transition to working from home without the cybersecurity training, technologies or procedures that are commonplace within enterprise companies," said Paul Lipman, CEO of BullGuard. "As a result, many small companies are vulnerable to being compromised by cybercriminals who are exploiting the coronavirus pandemic with predatory instinct."
According to the US Small Business Administration, there were 30.7 million small businesses in the US in 2019, with 59.9 million small business employees who account for 47.3% of all total US employees. Communities across the US rely heavily on small businesses for jobs, goods, services and general economic well-being. The free, three-month BullGuard Small Office Security product provides small businesses with the endpoint protection they need to ensure their remote employees and businesses are protected against cybercriminals. It provides powerful protection against the very latest threats, including the avalanche of coronavirus themed attacks that cybercriminals have unleashed, such as phishing emails and malware. These particular threats are unlikely to abate until the coronavirus runs its course.
BullGuard Small Office Security is a cloud-managed endpoint security service dedicated specifically to the needs of small businesses. Central to the platform is remote management from a cloud-based dashboard that makes it easy to manage all devices at the same time, which is particularly key with the surge in telework due to the current pandemic. For example, all teleworker devices (PCs, laptops, tablets and smartphones) are easily managed from the dashboard, enabling security updates to be applied simultaneously on all devices, and if a mobile device is lost or stolen it can be remotely locked down to protect sensitive data. An alert system also provides immediate notification about security events to allow instant remedial action, such as isolating a device infected with malware.
"Cybersecurity is the last thing many small businesses are thinking about as they grapple with all sorts of issues just to keep operating. They have more than enough to deal with and certainly don't need to contend with cybercriminals and malware infections," added Lipman. "We understand their cybersecurity needs in these unprecedented times and want to help them so they can concentrate on the essentials of day-to-day business."
Businesses interested in obtaining a free, three-month license to BullGuard Small Office Security can find further information at http://www.bullguard.com/staysafe.
*The three-month free offer of BullGuard Small Office Security may be extended past three months if circumstances require.

Premium German fashion brand chooses Centric Software to Empower Talented Teams and Bolster Innovation

CAMPBELL, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
The home of unique ready-to-wear items, shoes and accessories for fashion-loving women in Germany has chosen Centric Software as a long-term PLM partner to eliminate non-value added tasks, prioritize more strategic product-related activities and transform operational efficiency, ensuring beautiful products arrive to market quickly and efficiently. Centric Software provides the most innovative enterprise solutions to fashion, retail, footwear, outdoor, luxury, consumer goods and home décor companies to achieve strategic and operational digital transformation goals.
HALLHUBER GmbH was founded in Munich in 1977. At the time, the concept of young, trend-conscious brands was still scarce. Today, HALLHUBER is one of the most important vertical fashion brands for self-confident and sophisticated women in Germany, with an internationally connected design team producing up to 26 new collections every year. HALLHUBER sells its range in over 380 stores and sales areas in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, the Benelux countries, Poland, Great Britain, and Ireland as well as its own online platforms in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and France. The company has consistently pursued its market position in the "Bridge-to-Premium" category over the past 40 years.
With a new collection every two weeks at HALLHUBER, the margin for production error is small in a retail world where there is a growing consumer demand to be on-trend and on-time. Felix Gross, Head of Project Management says an outdated PDM solution was creating internal inefficiencies and hindering the ability to make the strategic decisions required for fast-paced collections.
"We were mainly using spreadsheets, email and a very old-fashioned PDM. None of these systems spoke to each other, so there was a growing need to reevaluate and streamline our design processes in order to save time and minimize mistakes. We wanted to reduce the number of tools we were working with to just one. That's where Centric stepped in."
By incorporating information from previous collections, Centric PLM saves teams hours usually spent searching for crucial data. Increased visibility and efficiency at every stage of product development maximizes time to value, ensuring quantities and quality are on track to meet promised delivery and fulfillment commitments.
Commenting on Centric's position as Fashion PLM market leader, Felix Gross says, "The single most important metric for us is time to value, ensuring that our teams spend more time on using their talents so we can explore new ideas and expand into new categories, while making smarter, more strategic product decisions. It's transformational for us to build this partnership. Centric is constantly developing new product features and effective growth strategies we can benefit from."
"We are very excited that HALLHUBER has chosen to partner with Centric," says Chris Groves, President and CEO of Centric Software. "We look forward to supporting their progress, designing and delivering beautiful products for an increasingly dynamic and competitive female fashion industry."

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) APRIL 07, 2020
Artificial Intelligence (AI) expert, serial entrepreneur, and noted software developer, Charles Simon, CEO of FutureAI has launched Brain Simulator II, a software platform for proving how Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) – the next phase of AI – will emerge.
Brain Simulator II enables experimentation into diverse AI algorithms to create an end-to-end AGI system with modules for vision, hearing, robotic control, learning, internal modeling, and even planning, imagination, and forethought.
"New, unique algorithms that directly address cognition are the key to helping AI evolve into AGI," Simon explains.
"Sallie, the Brain Simulator's artificial entity, can move about, see, touch, and smell objects, and learn to understand speech within a simulated environment," he explains. "She can even learn to navigate mazes using landmarks, the way a child might. This new research project advances new algorithms to simulate biological neuron circuits coupled with high-level artificial intelligence techniques."
Pointing out that current examples of AI, such as ALEXA and SIRI, fall short in the area of reasoning about time and space – things any three-year-old can do – Sallie, furthers existing technologies. She uses binocular vision to estimate distances, and learns words associated with her perceived environment, and learns to speak using baby-talk like a toddler.
According to Simon, all of Sallie's information is combined in a Universal Knowledge Store which captures any kind of information with biologically plausible techniques. Relating information from multiple senses then is key to comprehending that objects exist in a physical environment – an insight which underlies all human thought.
"Brain Simulator II combines vision and touch into a single mental model and is making progress toward the comprehension of causality and the passage of time," Simon notes. "As the modules are enhanced, progressively more intelligence will emerge."
Brain Simulator II marries Neural Network and Symbolic AI techniques to create unbounded possibilities. It creates an array of millions of neurons interconnected by any number of synapses.
Further, any cluster of neurons can be collected as a "Module" which can execute any desired background programming. For example, Brain Simulator II can integrate neural network recognition techniques with symbolic AI software structures efficiently creating a relational knowledge store.
Other features of Brain Simulator II include:

    The availability of millions of neurons via a desktop computer;

    The ability to create networks from scratch or from a library of functions;

    More than 20 module types for speech, vision, and robotic controls;

    Universal Knowledge Store modules, capable of storing any kind of information and synapses;

    The ability to write modules in any language supported by Microsoft's .NET platform.

Brain Simulator II's simple 2D and 3D simulators sidestep complexity starting with just a few object types, a few possible attributes, and a few relationships. Once these work well, modules can be expanded to learn new objects, attributes, and relationships as they are encountered within the environment.
Anyone interested in Brain Simulator II can follow along or participate in the development process by downloading the software, suggesting new features, and (for advanced developers) even adding custom modules.
