3D Printed Steaks Could Be The Next Emerging Tech ESG Investors Should Be Watching – Here’s Why

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga As the world’s growing population brings with it a growing demand for meat, the environmental pressures of meat consumption are coming into sharper focus. To meet that demand while decreasing the environmental impact the industry has, companies like Steakholder Foods Ltd (NASDAQ: STKH) are developing new technology for lab-grown meat. Here’s what investors should know about the emergence of food printing. Meat Accounts For About A Third Of The Agricultural Industry’s Emissions And Deforestation Problem If the global population cut its meat consumption in half, greenhouse gas emissions from the agricultural industry would drop by 31%. At the same time, the acres of land used to feed and raise livestock would decrease so much that it would almost stop the net loss of forests. If just half of that newly freed-up land were also restored through tree planting to create forest land, the amount of emissions captured by those new forests would double that 31% drop in emissions. Despite that significant potential to reduce the pressure on the environment and limited natural resources, meat consumption is actually expected to rise in the future. Instead of falling by half, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates global meat consumption will rise by 14% by 2030. Cultivated Meat Would Eliminate The Need For Land-Intensive Livestock Raising Cultivated meat refers to meat made from animal cells grown in a lab. Instead of raising and then slaughtering a cow, researchers have found a way to simply cultivate cow cells in a lab. With this technology, there would be no need to raise livestock, freeing up the acres of land devoted to keeping that livestock as well as the acres of crops dedicated to feeding them. Lab-grown meat bypasses the slaughterhouse and also the waste that comes with it. The process of draining the blood, removing the offal, tendons and other parts of the animal that people don’t eat results in about 60% of each animal slaughtered being either thrown away or recycled. By growing just the cells needed to recreate the parts of the animal that people actually eat, cultivated meat can also solve that glaring waste problem in the meat industry. The Emerging Lab-Grown Meat Industry Is Making Headway, But Challenges Remain The emerging industry is already starting to see some significant breakthroughs with this emerging tech. In 2022, the USDA approved California-based Upside Food’s lab-grown chicken for sale in the United States, marking the first approval of its kind in the country. This year, the agency followed that up with another approval for Good Meat, which also makes a cultivated chicken product. But some key challenges remain before cultivated meat can fully replace its traditional counterpart – namely, cost and texture. The technology is still new, and the cultured meat it produces is still costly to make. Meanwhile, actually shaping a cluster of cells into, say, a steak or pork chop is tricky. Hybrid meat is one way around the affordability challenge in the cultivated meat industry. It uses readily available, more affordable plant-based materials as the base with just enough lab-grown meat cells added to provide that real meat flavor. Until the technology to produce 100% lab-grown meat at scale becomes more affordable, these hybrid meat products offer a more cost-effective approach to developing these products at commercial scale. Steakholder Foods Reports Its Patented 3D Printing Technology Recreates The Taste And Texture Of Real Meat While they address the issue of affordability, the challenge of recreating the unique texture of actual cuts of meat remains challenging. That’s what really sets Steakholder Foods and its patented 3D printer apart. To create a more realistic texture, the company developed a unique 3D printer along with a hybrid meat “ink” that manufacturers can use to print ready-to-cook steaks, fish fillets and other structured cultivated meat products that deliver both the taste and texture of real meat. As the technology continues to progress, Stakeholder Foods will have the ability to seamlessly increase the percentage of lab-grown meat cells in the final product as those cells become more affordable to produce at scale. The B2B-Focused Company Is Making Cultivated Meat Production Attainable And Scalable For More Producers The B2B company intends to sell its 3D bio-printers to manufacturers who can then continue to order batches of hybrid meat ink as needed. The scalable technology allows manufacturers to produce several tons of 3D-printed meat products per month. Steakholder Foods signed its first multimillion-dollar agreement this summer, which will see a large-scale production facility built in the Persian Gulf region. Right now, the Israel-based company offers fish ink and its recently launched beef ink, but other species can be expected soon. Steakholder Foods became the first Nasdaq-listed cultivated meat company in 2021 and is still one of the few pure-play options for investors looking for exposure to the emerging sector. While major companies like Tyson Foods (NYSE: TSN) and JBS S.A. (OTCQX: JBSAY) are starting to invest in the new technology, Steakholder Foods is one of the few publicly-traded companies exclusively focused on developing meat printing technology.

Even As Ransomware Attacks Rise, Studies Reveal Insiders Remain The Biggest Threat To Your Company

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Ransomware attacks are indeed on the rise, but what people fail to realize is that insider threats are actually the real threat to businesses. The true threat to businesses lies in insiders maliciously stealing company information. These insiders, who have privileged access to the network – including employees, clients, vendors and management – pose a significant risk. Rather than accidental mistakes – like employees negligently clicking on phishing schemes – these individuals intentionally exploit their access to gain unauthorized access, steal sensitive data, or cause harm to the organization in another fashion. Insider Threats: On The Rise, Costly And Sneaky Studies have shown how much of a threat insiders with malicious intent can be to businesses. According to a report by Proofpoint, insider threats accounted for $15.38 million in average costs, affecting 34% of businesses annually. Malicious insiders often have an advantage as they are familiar with the organization's systems and processes, making it easier for them to navigate through security measures undetected. In addition, their nefarious activities are often impossible to distinguish from legitimate work activities by IT security. There’s a popular misconception that insider threats have to come from people high up in the company, but statistically, that isn’t always the case. Approximately 61% of internal actors are not in positions with a high level of access or stature. Even when examining governmental leaks, it becomes evident that some of the most significant leaks have come from individuals who are not in high positions like Edward Snowden. In the instance of Snowden, a former contractor for the National Security Agency (NSA), this showed that it is not always high-ranking officials who have access to sensitive data but anybody who possesses knowledge and access based on their role within the organization. This highlights an important problem: Oftentimes organizations do not have robust security systems in place to keep the wrong people from sensitive information. “To protect against insider threats, organizations should consider implementing various measures, starting with clear clauses and agreements that define intellectual property and ensure that employees understand that the work they produce belongs to the company.”, David Sun, National Practice Leader for Cyber Incident Response and Forensics at CohnReznick LLP. CohnReznick is a leading advisory, assurance and tax firm that helps organizations achieve their goals consulting on insider threats and how to prevent them before they can cause any damage by optimizing performance, maximizing value and managing risk. They offer a comprehensive range of consulting services encompassing various areas; part of their services is cybersecurity. This education is crucial in dispelling the notion that employees can take company-owned materials such as contact lists or internal documents with them when they leave. By educating employees about ownership and setting clear expectations, organizations can prevent misunderstandings regarding intellectual property. Technical Tools: Monitoring Necessary? Technical controls also play a vital role in preventing insider threats. “Companies should consider disabling USB drive functionality on computers to prevent employees from easily copying large amounts of data onto portable devices. In addition, access controls should be implemented, ensuring that employees only have access to the information necessary for their specific job roles.” says Sun. By limiting access to sensitive data and implementing need-to-know basis controls, companies can minimize the risk of unauthorized data extraction. In other words, only the necessary parties should have access to sensitive information. Proactively monitoring and highlighting high-risk employees may involve tools that collect screenshots, log keystrokes, record file downloads and copies and monitor email activities. By closely monitoring the activities of high-risk individuals, organizations can detect any unusual or unauthorized behaviors, and take prompt action to prevent data breaches or leaks. A multi-faceted approach to address cybersecurity needs, including insider threats is important to combat this issue. Risk Mitigation: Moving Forward Without effective measures in place, companies are at risk of losing money, clients and authority. The reality is there is generally a lot of sympathy when a company is a victim of a ransomware attack and oftentimes ransomware threats are over quickly. With insider threats, the damage can be much more far-reaching and crippling to a company. “To combat the impact of insider threats, companies should have a key employee departure process which includes proactive forensic preservation and analysis to identify any suspicious activity before damage has been done to the organization,” warns Sun. While preventive measures are important if a company is attacked, they need to react before it is too late. For businesses, the real threat may lie closer to home – and thankfully, firms like CohnReznick help to protect and prevent the damage these insider threats can unfortunately cause.
