AOC, the #1 global gaming monitor brand releases today its first gaming headset, the AOC GH200. AOC continues to expand its portfolio, now with gaming peripherals including the AGON AG700 and AOC GK500 mechanical keyboards, AGON AGM700 and AOC GM500 gaming mice, and AGON AMM700 mousepad. The GH200 is available now on Micro Center for $39.99.

AOC GH200 with 3.5 mm jack

Sleek Looks and Superior Comfort

The AOC GH200 dons a sleek chassis and light structure. Leatherette memory foam ear cushions and a flexible steel slider headband provide ultimate comfort over an extended period.

Impressive Sound

Thanks to its over-ear design, any external sounds such as PC fans or street noise get locked out.

The headset boasts a detachable boom microphone to communicate in-game or with VoIP software such as Discord. The omnidirectional boom microphone can be adjusted for comfort and audio levels and can also filter out noise at both low and high frequencies to deliver clear audio and speech quality. The AOC GH200 provides a solid, lag-free audio connection without issues such as compression delay or compression artefacts.

Not Just Gaming

Braided cables feature an in-line remote control and a 3.5 mm connector jack for a perfect match for PCs, consoles, or mobile devices. Users can also use Windows Sonic Spatial Sound for PC and Xbox. Its subtle gunmetal finish blends perfectly with other PC components making the AOC GH200 the perfect tool for not only gaming, but remote work, video calls or online classes too.

AOC Expands Portfolio Beyond Gaming Monitors

AOC finished 2020 as the #1 brand for gaming monitors in the world, retaining its ranking from the previous year. AOC continues to expand its portfolio with a peripheral line including mice, keyboard, mousepads, and headphones geared toward gamers.

“AOC is elbowing its way into an already crowded market but has done the homework on what gamers are truly looking for in a gaming headset, first and foremost being comfort. Sound quality is also impressively good, with much more bass response than expected for the price point. AOC’s strategy is simple: ‘out-do’ the competition in both comfort and sound, all while being more affordable than gaming headset brands that have been pumping out the same models and designs for years,” says AOC peripheral product manager, Jeff Cullup.

Availability

The AOC GH200 is available now at Micro Center for $39.99. A full list of specifications are available here.

Tom Bubeck, CEO, Honcho

“Tom’s impeccable leadership experience and businesses growth success made him the unanimous choice to drive our mission to be the leading provider of proactive communications protection software and accelerate adoption.” – Rick Kushel, Co-founder and General Partner, FINTOP Capital

NEW YORK (PRWEB)
November 09, 2021

Honcho, the first AI-powered communications protection software that proactively trains employees as they type, today announced the appointment of Tom Bubeck as CEO. Bubeck brings strong strategic leadership and compliance experience to the role of leading the company through its next phase of growth. Top brands count on Honcho to foster inclusive, compliant and fair business communications.

Bubeck has a consistent record of driving growth and exit strategies for rapid growth B2B technology organizations like LRN and S&P CapitalIQ. In his most recent role as Chief Operating Officer for LRN, a leading provider of ethics and compliance technology enabled education solutions, Bubeck took full command of the P & L and led the 250+ person multinational company to a turnaround that resulted in the company’s successful exit. Bubeck’s passion for creating solutions that foster great cultures and compliance was originally inspired by his work at Columbia University’s School of Law.

“Tom’s impeccable leadership experience, compliance training and SaaS technology businesses growth success — which spans two decades — made him the unanimous choice to drive our mission to be the leading provider of proactive communications protection software and accelerate adoption,” said Honcho board member Rick Kushel, Co-founder and General Partner, FINTOP Capital.

Bubeck joins Honcho at a time in which demand for its solutions is peaking in alignment with market trends and conditions that favor purpose, culture, responsibility, ethics and compliance. Growth of Honcho’s existing client base as well as significant funnel activity in sectors like finance, technology, insurance, sports, media and entertainment reflect growing interest in the company’s offerings. In addition to the trends, Bubeck attributes Honcho’s growth to the very real multi-billion dollar risks that companies who do not get ahead of potential business communications crises face.

“100% of companies communicate digitally,” said Bubeck. “All of them will encounter digital communications that put them and their employees at risk. Size doesn’t protect you. In recent years, dozens of Fortune 500 companies, major sports leagues, media and entertainment companies and financial services firms have been sued for damages over $100Million and settled or were found responsible for harmful digital communications that transpired across their workplaces.”

While many great companies use Honcho, its business to-date has been driven by the tip of the iceberg.

“All cultures and businesses are defined by what the people within them say and do,” said Bubeck. Today’s best CXOs, HR, corporate communications and DEI leaders know this. What they may not know is that every individual in their organizations can now access a spell-check like solution and receive the ongoing training they need to ensure their communications are aligned with their business communication goals.”

Until recently, while communications protection solutions existed, they fell far short of providing business leaders and their teams with the tools, training and reporting needed to continuously communicate effectively and compliantly — making it impossible to mitigate the $227.5 Billion* corporate risk organizations face when they do not get ahead of bullying, harassment or discrimination. Financial services companies and other regulated entities such as oil and gas trading companies face even greater risks because they have additional communication obligations related to regulations overseen by the SEC and FERC.

Honcho was designed to arm these leaders with everything they need in one place.

According to Michael Berry of MRB Compliance and the former Director of Compliance, PetroChina International Inc. (America) and Head of Compliance, BP North America,”What makes Honcho unique is it is the only solution that takes a proactive approach to business communications protection, guiding clients to the best choices before they send their messages.his allows teams. This allows compliance teams to manage communications risks much more effectively, while also protecting the business.”

As Bubeck takes the helm, Honcho has several key initiatives underway to help elevate and align its brand with client and market needs and its own growth trajectory. As the executives onboard and mobilize the team, they are now sharing those plans with their clients, partners and other stakeholders.

“Our partnership with BuyDRM will help service providers and content owners secure and protect their live and on-demand content efficiently and cost-effectively.” – Alain Durand, Senior Director at Synamedia and former CEO of ContentArmor

AUSTIN, Texas (PRWEB)

BuyDRM announced today the expansion of the KeyOS content security platform with the release of the MultiMark Server supporting just-in-time forensic watermarking and DRM. This addition strengthens BuyDRM’s arsenal of content security solutions aimed at deterring OTT streaming piracy.

MultiMark tracks the illegal distribution of content back to the source through a forensic watermarking application. Using MultiMark, forensic watermarking is combined with the application of consumer DRM encryption just-in-time for the user’s playback session. The watermarking and DRM travel with the content across all devices in all places and playback attempts.

BuyDRM has announced that MultiMark will ultimately include a multi-watermarking delivery model using the best of breed watermarking technologies available today for streaming and downloadable live and VoD content. In the initial release, MultiMark’s watermarking capability will be powered by Synamedia’s ContentArmor. Subsequent releases will offer users a choice of watermarking technologies from ContentArmor, NexGuard from NAGRA and ASiD from Friend MTS.

ContentArmor’s forensic watermarking solution operates without having to decompress the video. Watermarking insertion is done by modifying the bitstream which delivers blitz-fast embedding. MultiMark utilizes ContentArmor for protection of VoD DASH and HLS streaming and downloadable content. Live support is in alpha trials and is expected Q222.

Today, forensic watermarking combined with consumer DRM encryption affords the highest level of security available for streaming and downloadable video. Used together, the MultiMark Server and the Multikey Service and Server provide a full-spectrum of technologies for combatting the piracy of streaming and downloadable video.

KeyOS is an award-winning, content security platform for premium video content with studio-approved multi-DRM and watermarking technologies that safeguard the distribution of high-value video content. BuyDRM supports the fight against piracy and continues to strengthen KeyOS with new best of breed technologies and best practices.

“MultiMark is the evolution of seven years of applied watermarking technology combined with 20 years of commercial DRM development,” said Christopher Levy, BuyDRM CEO & Founder. “MultiMark provides a new approach to video security which is unparalleled in our industry. This is why we are proud to announce our intentions to support a wide array of watermarking technologies from companies like, ContentArmor, FriendMTS and NAGRA,” said Levy.

“Forensic Watermarking has a critical role to play in the fight against piracy” said Alain Durand, Senior Director at Synamedia and former CEO of ContentArmor. “Our partnership with BuyDRM will help service providers and content owners secure and protect their live and on-demand content efficiently and cost-effectively.”

“We’re excited to expand the distribution footprint of our NexGuard forensic watermarking solution with BuyDRM,” said Ken Gerstein, VP Sales, NAGRA Anti-Piracy & NexGuard. “We look forward to broadening the reach of NexGuard which is trusted by content owners, aggregators and distributors worldwide to protect their most valuable content assets.”

“Friend MTS’ content protection technologies detect, deter and disable piracy for some of the biggest brands in content creation, broadcasting and distribution,” said John Ward, Executive Vice President, Americas, Friend MTS. “We’re thrilled to be able to offer that critical protection to a wider audience as part of MultiMark from BuyDRM.”

In 2006, former Wired editor Chris Anderson foretold in his book ‘The Long Tail,’ “when the tools of production are available to everyone, everyone becomes a producer.” The creator economy includes industries such as gaming, finance, medical & scientific, media & entertainment, engineering & architecture, data science & AI professionals.

To assist these business customers, Micro Center provides an easy-to-use online service for sourcing computing needs. It features pre-configured workstations from Dell, Supermicro, and HP. In addition, we carry powerful machines using the latest graphics cards from NVIDIA and AMD plus fast computing power using the latest Intel Xeon or AMD Ryzen, Threadripper, and Epyc processors.
