Leave a comment


“With Zaloni, sophisticated enterprises can achieve business and analytics success while providing the controls and transparency needed across the ever-increasing size and complexity of today’s data challenges.” – Susan Cook, CEO Zaloni


RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. (PRWEB)

Zaloni, today announced the availability of the Zaloni Data Platform in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, an online store providing applications and services for use on Azure. Zaloni customers can now take advantage of the productive and trusted Azure cloud platform, with streamlined deployment and management.

Zaloni offers the leading end-to-end data management software for accelerating analytics value by improving every step of the data operations supply chain. We enable enterprises to realize their data’s untapped potential through an extensible platform that catalogs, controls and provides self-service consumption across on-premises and cloud data silos.

“Most of our customers are making the move to cloud, and many are choosing Azure as their preferred cloud platform because of the cost-effective data storage and processing,” said Susan Cook, CEO of Zaloni. “With Zaloni, sophisticated enterprises can achieve business and analytics success while providing the controls and transparency needed across the ever-increasing size and complexity of today’s data challenges.”

Zaloni enables hybrid data environments within the broader Microsoft ecosystem by seamlessly integrating with Azure and Microsoft SQL Server to provide best-in-class data management and governance with the flexibility to keep data on-premises and in the cloud.

Zaloni’s availability in Azure Marketplace makes it easy for companies to deploy, operate, and scale their data environments with pay-as-you-go pricing and provides:


  • An intuitive UI that makes it easy to ingest, manage, and govern data across environments.

  • An active data catalog with self-service preparation allows users to shop and provision relevant and trusted data.

“Through Microsoft Azure Marketplace, customers around the world can easily find, buy, and deploy partner solutions they can trust, all certified and optimized to run on Azure,” said Sajan Parihar, Senior Director, Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp. “We’re happy to welcome Zaloni to the growing Azure Marketplace ecosystem.”

The Azure Marketplace is an online market for buying and selling cloud solutions certified to run on Azure. The Azure Marketplace helps connect companies seeking innovative, cloud-based solutions with partners who have developed solutions that are ready to use.

Zaloni Data Platform v5.2 Release Accelerates Data Value with New Augmented Catalog and Consumption Features

In addition to availability in the Azure Marketplace, Zaloni has announced the latest release of the Zaloni Data Platform, v5.2. The release expands upon data cataloging and consumption features, making it easy for data analysts, scientists and business users to access, prepare and provision data in a secure and governed way.

Data Ingestion Directly From the Data Catalog

Previously, Zaloni expanded the data catalog beyond the data lake to include data from relational data sources in both cloud and on-premises environments, helping companies conquer their data sprawl challenges. In v5.2, users can easily catalog data from any relational database and then ingest that data into a data lake (on-premises or cloud) in just a few simple clicks. This feature allows users to catalog data wherever it resides and then take action upon the data directly within the data catalog, reducing reliance on IT. In addition to ingestion, users can provision the data to a target destination of their choice. Once data is ingested, an entity is created and lineage is tracked, providing traceability and improving data confidence.

Governed Data Provisioning and Augmented Data Catalog

Zaloni’s unique approach for end consumers to provision trusted data in an intuitive shopping cart interface is a critical capability of its augmented data catalog. In v5.2, Zaloni has expanded data provisioning to include data and custom analytics sandboxes. The analytics sandboxes include the data, tools, and an environment in which data can be analyzed, helping data analysts spend more time on analytics and less time on finding, preparing and provisioning data. Additionally, Zaloni added the ability for companies to define a “request-approval” workflow in the provisioning process where data consumers are required to request permission from data owners before provisioning the data. This feature provides an added layer of control and governance and easily integrates with ticketing systems, such as ServiceNow.

About Zaloni

At Zaloni, we believe in the unrealized power of data. Our data management software provides an augmented catalog that enables self-service data enrichment and consumption. We work with the world’s leading companies, delivering exceptional data governance built on an extensible, machine-learning platform that both improves and safeguards enterprises’ data assets.

HHHunt Continues Smart Senior Living Community Journey with K4Connect, Introduces Voice Technology to Spring Arbor Senior Living

Leave a comment


HHHunt SVP of Spring Arbor Senior Living Richard Williams and K4Connect CEO Scott Moody expand partnership over breakfast at the same restaurant table they did at the start of the relationship in 2017

K4Community has brought tremendous value to our senior living portfolio. Our residents and staff truly value it, and we’ve seen tangible operational ROI… – Richard Williams, HHHunt SVP of Spring Arbor Senior Living


RALEIGH, N.C. (PRWEB)

K4Connect, a mission-driven technology company that creates solutions that serve and empower older adults and individuals living with disabilities, announced today the further expansion of its partnership with HHHunt’s Spring Arbor Senior Living, operator of Spring Arbor assisted living communities across the Mid-Atlantic. Throughout 2020, HHHunt’s Spring Arbor Senior Living plans to expand its technology offering with new voice technologies, while adding additional communities to its K4Connect-enabled portfolio of communities.

This expansion comes three years after HHHunt signed on as K4Connect’s very first customer to implement K4Community, the company’s flagship technology solution designed for senior living, in 2017. Over the years, hundreds of residents and staff have benefitted from responsive environments enabled by smart home automation, more connected experiences through digital content and communications, and improved engagement with community activities, staff, family and fellow residents. The technology has also helped improve the organization’s overall occupancy, sharpened its market differentiation and positively impacted operational costs. The addition of leading-edge voice assistant technologies will now give Spring Arbor residents and staff voice-activated control of smart home features, community content and daily activities.

“K4Community has brought tremendous value to our senior living portfolio. Our residents and staff truly value it, and we’ve seen tangible operational ROI including, as an example, a meaningful contribution to a 15 point vacancy decrease at one of our communities,” said, HHHunt SVP of Spring Arbor Senior Living, Richard Williams. “We’re committed to continuing to leverage innovative technologies like voice to provide great experiences for our residents and staff with K4Connect, which is why we’re planning to extend the K4Community solution from today’s 10 to 13 Spring Arbor communities, while expanding our original agreement from two years to four more years.”

Voice technology has proved more than a novelty for assisted living residents, including easing access and engagement for those with visual and mobility impairments, and in communities voice-enabled to date, seeing over 70 percent daily adoption rates. Spring Arbor will introduce voice through Amazon’s Alexa across all of its K4Community-enabled assisted living communities this year, providing voice-activated community content, automated home features and K4 Alexa Skills customized to community needs. And residents are already seeing the benefits, as one Spring Arbor of Crofton resident said, “The fact that it can call the front desk is very beneficial.”

“We firmly believe the future of senior living is in Smart Senior Living Communities, and HHHunt is a prime example of that journey. When we first worked together, voice-first technology wasn’t even on senior living’s radar. Now, we’re bringing this technology to hundreds of residents using the same extendable system we implemented three years ago, K4Community,” said K4Connect CEO and co-founder F. Scott Moody. “We’re excited to continue our innovative partnership and for what’s to come in 2020 and beyond.”

K4Connect is the leading provider of enterprise-grade technologies for senior living communities, currently serving more than 28,000 residents at over 120 premier continuing care, independent living, assisted living and memory care communities across the nation. The company’s patented (28 US patents to-date) operating system, FusionOS, on which K4Community is built, is the first and only of its kind in senior living.

Granular Adds New Labor and Equipment Functionality to Improve Productivity and Deliver Accurate Field-Level Financials

Leave a comment


Farmers need a clear view of their field ROI, and the new labor and equipment features improve that level of detail.


SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB)

Granular, the leading farm management software platform, announced new functionality designed to help farmers easily assess the impact of labor and equipment on their profitability across the operation, down to the field level. This new functionality builds on existing features, enabling farmers to more efficiently manage team productivity and coordination across tasks. Equipment cost analysis can be customized to evaluate such items as fuel expenses, machine wear-and-tear, and payment data.

On average, labor and equipment expenses account for up to 25 percent of a farm’s budget. Yet farmers often struggle in-season to quickly pinpoint true costs and productivity differences for their work crew and equipment fleet. Granular’s new features can collect detailed labor and equipment costs based on actual work completed in the field.

Granular has talked with growers who understand the importance of analyzing their utilization of labor and equipment, in order to support hiring decisions, equipment purchases, and efficient time management. Granular’s new functionality will help farmers analyze these costs, while supporting growth during challenging economic times, and ultimately boosting their bottom line.

“I spend a lot less time on the phone now,” said Steve Frank, partner at Frank Ag in Johnstown, Colorado. “Granular Business helps our operation by tracking everything, including fuel costs, tractors, and labor costs. Now we have a lot more information on where we’re adding to our farm and what our costs are. It saves us a lot of time and money.”

“Farmers need a clear view of their field ROI, and the new labor and equipment features improve that level of detail,” said Andrew Meyers, Vice President of Product at Granular. “As farmers manage rent negotiations, implement crop plans, and consider expansion, they must have an accurate view of their financials to make the best decisions for their operation. This added functionality provides a clear view of field-level profitability.”

Granular is an agriculture software company dedicated to building stronger and more profitable farms. With web and mobile apps grounded in advanced data science, Granular helps farmers make data-driven, real-time business and agronomic decisions with greater confidence.

Cybereason Launches Free Emotet-Locker Tool to Help Global Organizations and Local and State Governments Combat Emotet Malware Attacks

Leave a comment



BOSTON (PRWEB)

Cybereason, creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, today announced that its Nocturnus researchers have made available a Free Emotet-Locker Tool to help organizations defend against a surge in Emotet malware attacks. The Emotet-Locker tool can be downloaded here:Cybr.ly/emotet. Emotet-Locker will prevent certain variants of Emotet on Windows machines.

According to DHS’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Emotet infections can cost local and state governments up to $1 million per incident in remediation costs. Cyberscoop reported on Monday that Berlin’s highest court was recently victimized by an Emotet attack with lasting damage and a recommendation that the court rebuild its entire network.

Emotet Malware Explanation

Emotet was first identified as early as 2014 as a trojan used to steal banking credentials. Since then, its capabilities have evolved significantly into a type of modular malware. Because of its modular nature and the practicality of Emotet’s distribution features, it is often used by attackers to gain a foothold in a target environment.

Emotet’s main infection vector is through phishing attacks, which use email with malicious links, attached PDFs, or Macro-embedded Microsoft Word files to spread. Once deployed, Emotet can launch different malware payloads based on the target machine and its goal. In recent years, it has become one of the most commonly employed commodity malware.

Cybereason’s Nocturnus researchers recently released the ‘Triple Threat’ research report with details of a nefarious campaign combining Emotet, TrickBot, and Ryuk that poses significant risk for victims. It shows how attackers are becoming more daring and opting to combine multiple types of malware to achieve maximum damage.

This campaign again originates from a phishing attack. The use of phishing to perpetrate a widespread attack continues to be a leading issue. This will continue to be an effective attack vector until we are able to prevent human manipulation in phishing attacks.

About Cybereason

Cybereason, creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, gives the advantage back to the defender through a completely new approach to cybersecurity. Cybereason offers endpoint prevention, detection and response and active monitoring. The solution delivers multi-layered endpoint prevention by leveraging signature and signatureless techniques to prevent known and unknown threats in conjunction with behavioral and deception techniques to prevent ransomware and fileless attacks.
