Default company name

Capital Brands Distribution, the leading innovator of the NutriBullet ® and Magic Bullet ® nutrient extractor franchises, unveiled its newest innovation in user-friendly nutrition today: the NutriBullet Juicer Pro™. The juicer is the newest addition to NutriBullet's extensive ecosystem of products focused on integrating better nutrition into everyday life and the company’s first introduction into the juicing category. With a sleek, feature-rich, premium build, the NutriBullet Juicer Pro™ contains a powerful 1000-Watt motor, multispeed control panel with low, high, and turbo speeds, and a LED light ring. Additionally, this premium model includes a dual size pusher that allows you to choose between a three-inch chute for whole fruits, or a narrow chute for smaller produce such as celery, berries, or leafy greens. The cleaning process is also much easier with the Juicer Pro as its components are dishwasher-safe, including its extra-large two-liter pulp container with integrated juice bowl. Accompanying the Juicer Pro are premium juice-storage solutions, including a two-ounce and four-ounce freezer trays and two glass to-go bottles. Precision speeds yield maximum juice in minimal time for NutriBullet Juicer Pro™ users. Its thoughtful design aims to make juicing simple enough for everyday use, and everyday nutrition. The no drip spout cover allows users to avoid leftover drips and drops on counter tops after removing the juice pitcher from under the spout. The NutriBullet Juicer Pro™ includes a recipe guide focused on lower calorie, immune-boosting, skin-healthy, and kid-friendly juice options. The guide also features sustainability-minded recipes using the leftover pulp to create delicious, healthy treats! “We designed the NutriBullet Juicer Pro™ with the philosophy that living a healthy lifestyle should be simple, easy, and accessible for anyone at any time,” said Rich Krause, CEO of Capital Brands Distribution. “Juicing is an important part of people’s routines and our new NutriBullet Juicer Pro™ was innovatively designed to allow for an improved juicing experience for everyone – for people just discovering the benefits of juicing to those who have already integrated juicing into their lifestyles.” Priced at $149.99*, the NutriBullet Juicer Pro™ will be available online at NutriBullet.com starting August 17 and will roll out to Amazon and select retailers nationwide in late August. For consumers new to juicing, the entry-level NutriBullet Juicer™ is also available and starts at $99.99*.

AQAIO Partners with Comodo to Build European Channel

Comodo

Comodo and AQAIO today announced their strategic partnership. AQAIO, a specialized next generation IT security distributor in Munich, Germany offers Comodo security solutions to reseller partners. “We chose to partner with Comodo because of the ease of use of the Dragon platform and the auto containment technology. The auto containment is a killer feature compared to everything else on the market. Why offer 99 percent when you can have 100 percent threat protection? Plus, the pricing is attractive and the cherry on top is the superb support team,” said Jens Schumacher, European Comodo Partnership Manager, AQAIO. Richard Hellmeier, CEO of AQAIO said “We are looking forward to building the channel for Comodo in Europe.” AQAIO chose Comodo’s Dragon platform with Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP), which is a complete cloud-native framework that delivers a zero-trust architecture to protect and defend endpoints. Its patent-pending auto containment technology has active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware and cyber-attacks. The auto containment runs an unknown executable in a kernel API virtualized mode, thereby offering attack surface reduction (ASR) which neutralizes ransomware attacks. The Dragon Platform also utilizes a Default Deny security posture with Default Allow usability to provide a most comprehensive protection against zero-day threats, while having no impact on end-user experience or workflows. In addition, Comodo’s Valkyrie analyzes and gives a trusted verdict for every file – no other company will analyze and give trusted verdict for 100% of the files on a network. Comodo’s platform shares intelligence and is therefore more secure than disparate products that claim best of breed but don’t share information. Comodo has architected its cybersecurity product to maximize intelligent sharing between every component of the platform, therefore providing superior security. Schumacher continued, “The increasing complexity of the cyber-threat landscape and industry-specific requirements demand solution specialists. Through our Comodo partnership, our partners, resellers and managed service providers can offer their customers everything enter from Managed Detection and Response (MDR) as a service to custom SOC-as-a-Service, and enterprise solutions with no initial investment.” AQAIO also chose Comodo’s next-gen SOC-as-a-platform (SOCaaP)™ which includes people, process and technology and offers full white label capability for any MSSP or enterprise. The platform saves partners time and money and is available with zero capital outlay. Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office at Comodo said, “We look forward to a strong future with AQAIO. Through this partnership, their resellers have support in their time zone and a local, central point of contact.” About AQAIO AQAIO is a partner to resellers, system integrators and OEMs. We deal with new technological developments, complemented and expanded by complementary solutions of market and technology leaders in the IT security environment.

ADSS Cyber Security Partners with Comodo to Transition from MSP to MSSP

Comodo

Comodo and ADSS Cyber Security today announced their strategic partnership. ADSS Cyber Security, a provider of managed security, cybersecurity consulting, cyber intelligence and security awareness training chose to partner with Comodo in order to transition from a Managed Service Provider (MSP) to a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP). “Our customers shouldn’t have to worry about cyber threats and so our mission is to provide the most advanced security tools operated by a highly trained staff. To accomplish this, we partner exclusively with global leaders in the security industry, like Comodo,” said Christopher Phillips, Co-Founder & Director of Cyber Operations, ADSS Cybersecurity. ADSS Cyber Security started out as an MSP offering AVAST’s CloudCare platform. The company searched for a different solution for their core managed solutions stack while planning the transition to MSSP. After a year of research, trial and error, they chose Comodo. Philips continued, “To successfully transition to an MSSP, we needed to provide the most solid security solutions available. We researched multiple security firms such as CrowdStrike and F-Secure and found that they didn’t offer protection that was equal to Comodo. After numerous tests, Comodo’s Dragon platform was the only solution that came out on top, and even when we tried to trick the software, it still offered great protection.” ADSS Cyber Security chose Comodo’s Dragon platform with Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP), which is a complete cloud-native framework that delivers a zero-trust architecture to protect and defend endpoints. Its patent-pending auto containment technology has active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware and cyber-attacks. The auto containment runs an unknown executable in a kernel API virtualized mode, thereby offering attack surface reduction (ASR) which neutralizes ransomware attacks.

In addition, Comodo’s Valkyrie analyzes and gives a trusted verdict for every file – no other company will analyze and give trusted verdict for 100% of the files on a network “We initially chose to work with Comodo because of the incredible auto containment technology, but we’re benefiting from the entire platform of security solutions, which enabled us to offer streamlined and extensive protection for our clients. We feel safe knowing that our clients are protected by the best,” said Phillips. Comodo’s platform shares intelligence and is therefore more secure than disparate products that claim best of breed but don’t share information. Comodo has architected its cybersecurity product to maximize intelligent sharing between every component of the platform, therefore providing superior security. ADSS Cyber Security also chose Comodo’s next-gen SOC-as-a-platform (SOCaaP)™, which includes people, process and technology and offers full white label capability for any MSSP or enterprise. The platform saves partners time and money, with zero capital outlay. “Comodo made it incredibly easy for us to add managed security services to our portfolio. Without Comodo, we would have had needed substantial capital investment for staff, software and infrastructure,” continued Phillips. Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office at Comodo said, “We’re ready to help companies meet the explosive demand for managed security services. Our platform makes it possible to for an MSP to become an MSSP with one click and with zero capital outlay.” About ADSS Cyber Security Welcome to ADSS Cyber Security Limited, the security team you can trust when things go wrong.

InterAct Unveils Addiction Support Platform to Address Opioid Crisis in Rural America

Convey Services

InterAct LifeLine , today launched the InterAct Opioid Resource Platform , an addiction education knowledgebase designed to support Rural Health Initiatives at the federal, state and local level. The Opioid Resource Platform delivers patient and family support tools and telehealth resources to provide relief from the opioid crisis in rural communities where access to treatment is often unavailable. The InterAct platform complies with HIPAA regulations and ADA accessibility and is custom branded for state, regional, municipal or school districts, along with private treatment programs. Each portal is connected to a centralized online library populated with current educational resources on a wide range of drug-related topics, family support and wellness strategies. Community organizations can use the InterAct Opioid Resource Platform to connect and refer individuals to local resources, community contacts and virtual support groups. “The Rural Opioid Crisis has brought increasing levels of addiction and overdose deaths to America’s heartland, while the resources needed to support families facing addiction rarely reaches beyond the urban centers,” said Carolyn Bradfield , CEO & founder of InterAct. “COVID-19 is only making this worse as overdoses increased 18% in March, 29 % in April and 42 % in May according to a July 2020 Washington Post article. The use of technology to provide more services to people suffering with the disease of addiction, in both urban and rural areas has been glaringly absent. The InterAct Opioid Resource Platform can be rolled out and managed by federal, state or county organizations who can direct and focus the content and resources available at every level.” In addition to parent and family educational content and access to localized services, the InterAct Opioid Resource Platform interfaces with Medicaid/Medicare supported telehealth services for online psychiatric and psychological counseling. Professionally moderated group sessions are available online to provide expanded support to rural communities when geography, mobility or personal presence is restricted. Monitored regional public forums let users ask questions and receive feedback from their peers or professionals. Portals can also provide fund raising tools and sponsorship opportunities to make them financially self-sufficient. “Rural America continues to take the brunt of the opioid crisis, with minimal access to resources and services, coupled with out of control addiction rates,” added Bradfield. “Families bear the burden of trying to support an adolescent or adult family member facing addiction, but they are the last to receive any education or counseling. Fighting COVID has diverted funding and public attention away from the Opioid Crisis, while rural America continues to address this decade-long addiction pandemic. The Opioid Crisis will still be here when COVID is contained, and the death toll will continue to mount.” According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) , “Rates of drug overdose deaths are rising in rural areas, surpassing rates in urban areas. Although the percentage of people reporting illicit drug use is lower in rural areas, the effects of use appear to be higher. In 2017, more than 70,000 people died from drug overdoses, making it a leading cause of injury-related death in the United States. Of those deaths, almost 68% involved a prescription or illicit opioid. About InterAct LifeLine Founded in 2019 by Carolyn Bradfield following the overdose death of her daughter, InterAct is a technology telehealth platform delivering education and content on addiction and wellness strategies to promote recovery, connections to community through discussion forums and virtual support groups, and continuous outreach to its members. InterAct’s portal technology is integrated with a HIPAA compliant mobile platform offering applications to families to engage individuals, organize their schedule with reminders and check ins, send secure messages and monitors vital signs through wearables to detect risk for overdose. InterAct’s technology produces detailed data used for treatment program outcomes studies. For information visit www.interactlifeline.com , info@interactlifeline.com or call 866-274-7539.
