Applied Insight Honored for Second Year by Government Innovation Awards, Wins in 2020 for SHIFT, Its Cloud Emulation and Testing Platform

Applied Insight

Applied Insight , a market leader in solving complex technology challenges for federal government customers, announced today that it has received the Industry Innovator Award for its SaaS/PaaS emulation and testing platform SHIFT™ as part of the 2020 Government Innovation Awards presented by PublicSector360, including Washington Technology, FCW, GCN and Defense Systems. The award recognizes the groundbreaking nature of SHIFT, which is used by government and commercial customers to develop, test and remediate software prior to deploying it in the classified regions of government clouds. This is the second consecutive year that Applied Insight has won this prestigious award. Last year, the company was recognized for its innovative cloud management platform, Altitude™ . “We are pleased that SHIFT has been recognized as an Industry Innovator,” said Dede Dascalu, CEO of Applied Insight . “There has long been a shortage of software engineers who have the right clearances for national security missions. SHIFT is not only addressing this problem by enabling low-side development, it is also speeding the delivery of modern, mission-critical software to our customers.” Air-gapped and restricted regions of government clouds come with multiple technical nuances that require additional configuration to software products built for commercial use. When commercial software is brought into these special cloud regions, these technical differences result in numerous errors and require several additional deployment cycles. SHIFT is a SaaS/PaaS platform that emulates restricted cloud regions and their systems, so development and implementation teams can configure and test their software prior to deployment. In doing so, SHIFT greatly reduces time and costs by nearly eliminating rework and reconfigurations. In just the first six months of 2020, SHIFT helped identify and remediate more than 5.5 million errors for its customers. “The development of differentiated intellectual property has always been a central pillar of Acacia’s investment approach,” said Gavin Long , partner of The Acacia Group , the sponsor of Applied Insight as a unique, technology-focused, government market platform established in 2017. “Our federal businesses continue to create game-changing technologies that are having a massive impact on the success of customer missions. That Applied Insight now has two award-winning technologies in its product portfolio is great recognition for the team’s technical brilliance. We couldn’t be more proud of what they’ve achieved and will continue to invest in their product development capabilities.” The Government Innovation Awards celebrate the transformative government projects, individual change agents and industry partners that are reimagining public-sector IT. The Industry Innovator awards recognize private-sector companies' vital role in the government IT community. Due to COVID-19, there will be no in-person awards gala this year. Instead, winners and innovations can be found online . About Applied Insight At Applied Insight, we deliver pragmatic solutions for federal missions that cannot wait.

New Suzy Research Shows Brands Will Need to Shift Strategies to Meet Consumer Preferences this Holiday Season

Suzy

NEW YORK (Oct. 22) -- Suzy , a real-time market research platform, today announced its new research report, “State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty,” revealing data about holiday shopping, travel and anticipated consumer spending amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The report found that Americans will rely on virtual connections during the holidays and shift gift giving strategies, meaning brands will have to plan accordingly. Less travel and turkey this Thanksgiving for most Due to continued social distancing guidelines, many Americans are changing their traditional plans, including how and where they will travel during the holidays. Suzy’s research revealed that 75% of young adults do not plan to travel during Thanksgiving and more than one-third of overall respondents (38%) are still undecided about their December holiday plans. While some will try to visit family and friends in-person this Thanksgiving, Suzy found that the majority of respondents have significantly changed their plans. In fact, only 10% either plan to host or attend a Friendsgiving and only about half (53%) will cook a turkey this year. Additionally, indicating major changes for the airline and auto rental industries, respondents are shifting their travel habits: 86% of those who do intend to travel for Thanksgiving are only visiting family, and 71% of those are electing to travel by car. Apprehension remains for public transportation, as only 17% plan to fly, 8% will rely on bus transportation and 3% will take a train for their holiday travel. Zero percent of people aged 60 to 72 years old plan to travel by plane. 29% plan to attend a virtual family event. “Our research shows that major brands are going to have to adjust their advertising, promotions and sales strategies this holiday season to meet consumer demand and expectations,” said Suzy President Avi Savar. “The holidays are a critical time for brands every year, but this year is especially high-stakes for retailers due to market fluctuations associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.” Uncertainty looms around holiday shopping According to Suzy research, holiday shopping plans are still in major flux as consumers aren’t sure how much they will spend this year. In fact, according to Suzy research: 38% are not sure how much they will spend on Black Friday/Cyber Monday, while 22% plan to spend less on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. 12% plan to spend more on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. 32% plan to shop on Black Friday, versus 63% of people who shopped during Black Friday in 2019. 53% are either unsure how much they will spend or plan to spend less on gift giving this holiday season. 65% think it is most important to buy gifts for their kids; 61% are prioritizing buying gifts for their significant other. “Based on our research, it appears that long distance gifting and care packages will become a reality, as people ship presents to loved ones that they cannot be with in person. Brands must change their strategies accordingly to meet these gift giving needs,” added Savar. “Additionally, consumers will be looking to their most frequently shopped retailers to offer deep promotions and discounts to make the holidays a little easier on their psyche and wallets.” A complete State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty report is available upon request. About the State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty: Suzy’s State of the Consumer: 'Tis the Season for Uncertainty study surveyed 1,000 U.S. consumers in September 2020.

Comodo Announces ARFA Technology as Partner for Pan African Cybersecurity Marketplace

Comodo

Comodo, the world’s leader of next-generation cybersecurity announced a partnership with ARFA Technology Ltd. a Pan African company that specializes in cybersecurity solutions. ARFA is bringing Comodo’s entire range of cybersecurity solutions to every country in the African market. “We are a new Comodo distributor that is based in Africa and understands the needs of our local customers. We know that most enterprises in Africa do not have the luxury to invest in multiple cybersecurity solutions to secure their networks. Comodo’s platform offers advanced endpoint protection and auto containment, plus antivirus and other functionalities. With just a single SKU our customers have comprehensive cybersecurity solutions,” said Faustine Ebangha, Co-Founder and Channel Sales Director at ARFA Technology. Faustine continued, “We evaluated Panda, McAfee, Crowdstrike and Kapersky but Comodo’s breadth of capabilities and pricing makes it the best cybersecurity product in the global market. The competition either does not have the competences that Comodo offers or they charge for it separately, making their solutions too cost prohibitive to the enterprises we serve.” ARFA Technology will offer 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. 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. Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office at Comodo said, “This partnership has empowered ARFA to make Comodo solutions and attractive pricing available to customers in every single country in Africa and they’ve had great success. They only recently introduced Comodo’s solutions to the African market and have already closed several deals with customers, with more expected very soon.” About ARFA Technology Ltd.

Global Maritime Information Coalition formed in response to SHIPPINGInsight 20/20 Call for Collaboration Amongst Stakeholders

SHIPPINGInsight

In response to last week’s repeated calls for industry collaboration at SHIPPINGInsight Fleet Optimization and Innovation Conference and Exhibition , its Chief Evolution Officer, Carleen Lyden Walker, announced the formation of the Global Maritime Information Coalition (GMIC) designed to address the lack of unified messaging to the public about the maritime industry. “The recent crew change crisis has illuminated the maritime’s low awareness in the public’s consciousness”, stated Walker. “Despite the importance of the maritime industry to global society, seafarers were not deemed ‘essential workers’ alongside firemen, policemen, medical personnel, and other worthy groups. Much of this is due to the lack of understanding how dependent the world’s community is on shipping, providing it with food, energy, medical supplies and more.” “Since its inception, the maritime industry has been in the forefront of globalization as the literal ‘engine of global trade’, carrying more than 90% of the world’s goods and energy” stated Walker. “Because of its siloed roots, however, this essential service remains nearly invisible to the public. The Global Maritime Information Coalition intends to be a global resource to benefit the industry and communicate its value proposition to the public.” While this lack of awareness has been identified for decades, there has been little achieved to overcome it. “Individual groups have attempted to reach the public, but there has been no global, unified organization chartered to create awareness of the maritime sector and deliver key messages to the public about its role and importance” observed Walker. “Leveraging today’s communication tools along with a unification of the global maritime community, the Global Maritime Information Coalition will enable our industry to increase our visibility, communicate our value proposition, improve the public’s perception of our activities, and deliver targeted messages to global society.” The objective of the GMIC is to develop a unified platform for the global maritime community to raise the awareness of the global maritime industry and its value amongst the public, improve society’s image of the sector, provide unified messaging about the industry, be a resource for governments to learn about the industry, act as a portal for groups to communicate with the maritime industry, inform students and the public about career opportunities available in the industry. The next steps in the formation of the Coalition is to recruit global, national and regional industry organizations, government agencies, corporations and NGOs to join the GMIC and establish a work program for the organization. It is anticipated there will be four major areas of engagement: value proposition of the industry, its commitment to decreasing maritime’s environmental impact, industry’s technological advances, and maritime as a career opportunity. For more information, contact Carleen Lyden Walker, c.walker@shippinginsight.com . Originally established in 2012, SHIPPINGInsight has grown steadily each year. Focusing on fleet optimization and innovation, the event provides a forum for fleet managers and solution providers to exchange ideas and discuss challenges in facing the transformation of the industry. More than 300 delegates from 19 countries attended the 2019 event, including 76 shipping company executives. With the virtual platform, this year’s event will reach globally.
