Comodo Partners with IT Service Provider Paradigm Technology Group to Offer Endpoint Protection to More Than 650 Global Enterprises

Comodo

Comodo Security Solutions, a leading provider of endpoint protection, today announced that they have partnered with Paradigm Technology Group to provide its customers with advanced protection against increasing ransomware and malware threats. It comes at a particularly critical time as approximately 300,000 new ransomware variants are released daily, particularly targeting Paradigm Technology Group’s customer base in the financial, manufacturing, and medical industries. Comodo’s Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP) is the only solution on the market that prevents 100% of ransomware and other malware before any damage is done. Because endpoints are the entry point for virtually all malware attacks, Comodo AEP utilizes a patented virtual isolation capability which isolates unknown files and code in a protective container until it is determined to be 100% safe. “Comodo’s auto-containment will keep our customer’s infrastructure safe and malware free,” said Michael Hochberg, Co-founder and Managing Partner of Paradigm Technology Group. “We’re confident that this partnership will defeat all zero-day attacks with no impact to our end user's experience.” “We’re proud to partner with an IT service provider that supports more than one million endpoints today with more than 650 global small to medium enterprise customers,” said Rich Scott, Chief Revenue Officer at Comodo. “This will significantly improve the threat landscape for these companies. While other cybersecurity solutions detect and report on threats, Comodo AEP prevents and protects against threats from ever occurring. We are the only endpoint security solution that applies the zero-trust principle of never trust, always verify.” For more information, visit www.comodo.com or www.paradigmtg.com.

For many years, City Produce has been serving North Central Florida, the Florida Panhandle, and central to southern Alabama distributing fresh fruits and vegetables, including an array of fresh-cut offerings, dairy, meats, seafoods, specialty foods, and more. City Produce operates out of two facilities, one in Fort Walton Beach, and a second in Foley, Alabama. The addition expands FreshEdge’s footprint into the southern United States and provides space and logistical support to better serve its customer base as it spreads farther south. City Produce joins Piazza Produce & Specialty Foods, Indianapolis Fruit, Get Fresh Produce, McCartney Produce, Monteverde’s, Valley Produce, Vine Line, Garden Cut, CIBUS Fresh and Papania’s.

Announcing Launch of Devium, Web3 DevOps Platform for Next-Generation Blockchain Applications

Devium

Devium, a company building a decentralized application development platform for Web3 applications enabling developers to own and monetize their code, today announced the company and platform launch, and timelines for the upcoming DEVI token launch. Devium offers an end-to-end decentralized software development platform built for Web3, giving developers the ability to own and monetize their code through in-platform licensing and an NFT marketplace. The platform also supports current development in Web2 environments and provides easy migration to Web3. It leverages all the decentralized benefits of blockchain such as greater security, platform availability, and lack of censorship or tampering that can occur in centralized platforms run by a single entity. The need for Devium was first recognized by long-time developer and founder, Latif Vardar, several years ago. In 2019 he gathered a team of developers and blockchain professionals to form the company and started the development of Devium’s platform MVP (minimum viable product). “Our team has been working hard to create a next-generation app development platform to solve existing DevOps Web2 issues and provide an easy migration path to Web3 application development” said Founder and CEO, Latif Vardar. “Our mission is to help Devs have more control and ownership of their work and be able to build their wealth through an NFT marketplace that enables streamlined source code licensing and a ready market of buyers.” He added “We see a huge opportunity for this platform as the need for more sophisticated DevOps methodologies and the demand for Web3 blockchain applications grows. We look forward to the rollout of our Testnet to Beta users over the next few weeks, and the public launch of the token this summer.” At the core of Devium is the DEVI token, an ERC-20 utility token built on the Ethereum blockchain. The token will be used for access and member benefits, licensing and NFT fees, marketplace transactions, and foundation operations and grants. It is anticipated that the DEVI token will play a large role beyond the platform as a currency of the Web3 application development ecosystem. The company’s platform is at the prototype stage currently and the Testnet version will be available in early June for Beta users to try. The company has started community building and will launch a series of influencer relationships, AMAs sessions, company partnerships, and KOLs (key opinion leader) relationships over the coming weeks to engage with users, token holders and investors. A private presale is ongoing, and the private sale will begin on May 15 th; whitelist information is available on the website. LaunchPad relationships will commence in a few weeks prior to IDO (initial DEX offering) and public launch of the DEVI token which is anticipated this summer.

It features an end-to-end environment for code development, storage, project management, testing and licensing.

DermTech Helps Detect Skin Cancer Through a Smart Sticker Instead of a Scalpel

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/9SD9aKn3328 Would it surprise you to know that one in five Americans develop skin cancer by the age of 70? In fact, more than two people die of skin cancer in the U.S. every hour. It is one of the deadliest forms of skin cancer and one of the most common cancers diagnosed in the U.S. Because of the nation-wide closures of dermatology offices during the pandemic, there was a significant delay in routine cancer screening which impaired referrals for preliminary cancer diagnoses. This means there is a potential backlog of undiagnosed skin cancers. Even prior to the pandemic, only 16 percent of Americans ages 18-29 surveyed in a 2018 study stated that they visited a dermatologist’s office in the past 12 months. What if there were an innovative and painless ways to get your moles checked at home via a telehealth appointment and under clinician supervision? DermTech’s reliable and patient-friendly test, the DermTech Melanoma Test, enhances early melanoma detection by accurately ruling out melanoma. It uses a non-invasive Smart Sticker to gently lift skin cells from the surface of the skin, which are tested for the presence of genomic markers associated with melanoma. A negative test result means there is greater than 99% probability that the mole is not melanoma. The Smart Sticker is simply pressed onto the spot, lifted off and then sent to DermTech’s lab. Patients can access the DermTech Melanoma Test at dermatologists’ offices, through certain primary care providers or remotely via telehealth in 44 states.

Dartmouth Innovation & Technology Festival Celebrates Completion of Dartmouth’s West End District Focused on Solving the World’s “Wicked Problems”

Dartmouth

With $500 Million in capital and programming investments, expanded district combines Dartmouth’s liberal arts focus with entrepreneurial spirit, technological and scientific expertise to create future leaders; Festival program will include a range of speakers and topics focused on creating a sustainable, equitable future Former Dartmouth president, John Sloan Dickey, famously implored students to apply their education for the benefit of humankind—because “there is nothing wrong with the world that better human beings cannot fix.” That’s the spirit behind the recently completed West End District at Dartmouth, which will be celebrated at the Dartmouth Innovation & Technology Festival, May 12-14, 2022. The festival will gather leading alumni, global technology experts, public policy leaders, faculty, and students for provocative discussions about innovation, collaboration, and the art of the possible. Dartmouth President Philip J. Hanlon said of the West End District, “Solving society’s greatest challenges requires that students, faculty, and staff have the necessary cutting-edge infrastructure to do their best work." Dartmouth’s West End began with the idea that organizing scholarship by research areas, rather than by departments, works better to break down the silos that have kept scientists, business leaders, and innovators looking at complex problems only from within their own disciplines. Interdisciplinary, inter-school, and intergenerational collaboration will prepare future leaders to tackle the world’s most wicked issues. The West End District includes the Tuck School of Business, Thayer School of Engineering, and two new state-of-the-art buildings, the Arthur L. Irving Institute for Energy and Society and the Class of 1982 Engineering and Computer Science Center, which houses the Department of Computer Science, Magnuson Center for Entrepreneurship, and the Digital Applied Learning and Innovation Lab. Key Points The West End District changes the way teaching and learning happens. It allows faculty and students to think systemically and holistically about society’s challenges—and is where big ideas become bold realities at the intersections of science, technology, business, and the liberal arts. The West End was a top priority of Dartmouth’s The Call to Lead campaign and is the largest building project in Dartmouth’s 253-year history. The Dartmouth Innovation & Technology Festival will feature a range of events, including: The presentation of the first annual McGuire Family Prize for Societal Impact, awarded to Jason McLellan, a structural biologist whose groundbreaking coronavirus research conducted at the Geisel School of Medicine laid the foundation for COVID-19 vaccines that have saved countless lives. Keynote and panel conversations about a range of topics, including sustainability, whether crypto currency can deliver long-term value, women’s health, artificial intelligence, transportation, and increasing diversity in STEM. Interactive experiences in makerspaces led by faculty and Dartmouth students. About Dartmouth Founded in 1769, Dartmouth is a member of the Ivy League and consistently ranks among the world’s greatest academic institutions. Dartmouth has forged a singular identity for combining its deep commitment to outstanding undergraduate liberal arts and graduate education with distinguished research and scholarship in the Arts and Sciences and its four leading graduate schools—the Geisel School of Medicine, the Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced Studies, Thayer School of Engineering, and the Tuck School of Business.
