DISA Awards By Light Team $198.9M Cloud-Based Internet Isolation Production OTA

MCLEAN, Va. -- By Light Professional IT Services LLC has been awarded a $198.9M, 5-year production Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for the Cloud-Based Internet Isolation (CBII) Program. By Light as the prime contractor for this OTA, with teammate Menlo Security, Inc., are together delivering this next-generation Isolation Platform to protect Department of Defense (DoD) networks worldwide.

Beginning in March 2019, By Light and Menlo worked closely with the DISA CBII Program Management Office (PMO) to design and implement the CBII prototype capability which eliminates most web-based threats such as drive-by-downloads. This technology removes the browsing process from the desktop and moves it to the cloud, effectively creating an "air gap" between the internet and enterprise networks. The successful implementation of this effort will directly enhance military and civilian personnel's ability to defend the DoD Information Network (DODIN).

According to Bob Donahue, By Light CEO, "This win culminates more than 18 months of working closely with Menlo, DISA, and its Mission Partners to shape the commercial application of Menlo's Global Cloud Secure Web Gateway (SWG) to improve DoD's information security posture for those entities conducting business across the Internet. Our CBII solution improves the security posture of the network, will scale to meet DoD needs, is easy to deploy and manage, and optimizes and reduces bandwidth - thereby extending the life of the network."

"This isolation technology allows enterprises to separate their network from the public web while providing users seamless access to the internet with a native browser experience," says Joe Boyd, By Light VP and CBII Program Manager. "Within the cloud native architecture, all components scale horizontally. You couple this with global availability, anytime/anywhere access, always-on cloud with failover between regions, instant on-boarding of users, 24x7x365 operations support, and what you get is an enterprise-class cybersecurity capability virtually eliminating internet browsing threats traversing the Internet Access Points (IAPs) while also optimizing and reducing bandwidth utilization."

"We're truly humbled to partner with By Light on this groundbreaking program with DISA," said Poornima DeBolle, Chief Product Officer, Menlo Security. "Our partnership with the By Light team and the CBII Program Management Office (PMO) is a true testament to the value of the Menlo Security 'Isolation Core' architecture to deliver on their security and scalability needs to help defend the users of the DoD Information Network (DODIN)."

Aclaró AI’s Carzi Product Helps Increase Car Transactions Amidst COVID-19

MIAMI, Fla. -- Aclaró AI, the fast-growing startup that specializes in the science of personalized experiences, is helping drivers more easily purchase new vehicles through its new Carzi application. Amidst COVID-19, Carzi is an outstanding tool that help consumers get a granular look at a vehicle that interests them. With that data in hand, customers can obtain the confidence they need to make a purchase.

Encouraging Signs Amidst Economic Uncertainty

COVID-19 has been one of the most disruptive events in recent memory. Yet even among massive medical and financial uncertainty, new car sales have started to bounce back. According to a report from Auto Finance News, we are starting to see increases in new car transaction prices. Since the peak of the crisis in March, we are also starting to see automaker revenue increases for the first time.

The world economy certainly isn't back to pre-COVID levels, yet these numbers signal hope for automakers in these troubling times. Consumers throughout the world are more likely to invest in a new vehicle. That being said, these consumers are still being extremely cautious. They want to make sure that they are getting a high-quality vehicle at the most competitive prices.

Aclaró's New Carzi Product: Creating Substantial Value for Consumers

This is where Aclaró AI comes in. Aclaró AI's new Carzi product was specifically designed to help increase auto sales during these tumultuous times.

Consumers can think of Carzi as their knowledgeable guide to virtually any vehicle on the market today. To put it simply, Carzi provides a wealth of information to the consumer enabling them to check a wide range of facts about a specific vehicle.

For instance, to start, Carzi gives consumers an accurate value of a vehicle. In today's economic climate, most car buyers are being much more cautious. They want to ensure that they aren't overpaying for a vehicle even if they love it. Whether or not the customer decides to negotiate, this price a great starting point.

Along with accurate pricing data, Carzi lets consumers access a vehicle's entire service history. This is a huge benefit for consumers. Instead of jumping from dealer to dealer to retrieve the vehicle's history, Carzi users can obtain all of that data with one touch. Carzi is an essential tool to help buyers avoid vehicles with a poor service history. The complete service information can inform their decision to purchase and empower their negotiations with the seller.

These are just two ways that Carzi provides substantial value to consumers. Living in these trying times, consumers are seeking confidence and security. They want to make sure that they are getting the most value possible - especially when making such a large purchase.

Carzi is yet another Aclaró AI product for both dealerships and consumers. Regardless of market circumstances, Carzi will continue to help auto consumers make better and more informed decisions.

Aclaró AI Announces Data Lake API That Directly Integrates Into the CDK Platform

MIAMI, Fla. -- Aclaró AI, the fast-growing startup that specializes in the science of personalized experiences, is announcing a new product, The Aclaró Data Lake, which integrates directly with auto dealers' CDK platforms.

Leveraging this Data Lake and CDK integration, developers from around the world can create valuable apps to enable auto dealers mitigate risk and capture new revenue opportunities. With all of this data at their fingertips, dealers and developers will now provide even more value to their customers.

Unlocking Additional Value from One of the Most Popular Dealer Management Systems

CDK is known to be one of the most popular and important vendors in the auto dealer community. According to some estimates, 8,000 dealerships run the CDK dealer management system ("DMS") platform. Small and large dealerships take advantage of real-time data and valuable tools to streamline and grow their businesses.

Using Aclaró's Data Lake interfaces ("APIs"), dealerships and developers can now accelerate new application development on the CDK platform. You can think of this new integration as similar to the Apple App Store. The Apple App Store has generated countless apps that have created immeasurable value for Apple users. The Aclaró Data Lake will do the same for CDK users.

In this context, developers will create apps that pull data directly from the CDK Data Lake. The process is seamless and intuitive, giving developers and dealerships the power of Big Data and Aclaró's AI Engines to develop new applications. They will develop fast-to-market solutions that give clients the services and solutions that they need. In less than four weeks, a two developer team created a full Customer Loyalty System that delivers fully One-to-One personalized offers and coupons to dealership customers.

Aclaró provides more than 80 APIs to manage the data lake of augmented DMS data. This includes everything from customers and pricing to inventory and service. Dealers and developers also get access to Aclaró's API engines, which let dealers access opportunities like setting variable pricing. Dealers can even include this engine in a web interaction, to capitalize on impulse purchases.

Benefiting Dealerships and Customers

This integration between CDK and Aclaró is a win-win for dealerships and customers alike. For starters, the new integration enables dealerships to leverage the power of artificial intelligence. CDK can implement APIs that can bring the very best third-party developers to dealerships' doorsteps. Dealerships can also overcome legal hurdles and subpar third-party vendors that compromise customer data. In other words, it helps enables dealerships to avoid those aggressive third-party suppliers who offer aggressive, limited, and subpar solutions.

Along with this, Aclaró's new product results in a better end experience for customers. They will see a custom and personalized experience, whether they are searching for a new car or are simply looking for routine auto service. The robust developer community will create applications that improve nearly every aspect of the customer experience.

Doing business in an increasingly competitive market, dealerships will use Aclaró's new product to help their businesses grow. It is a huge step forward for car dealerships, as it opens the doors to all kinds of exciting possibilities on the CDK platform. Whether dealers want to increase sales, develop better customer relationships, or better manage their schedules and workflows, Aclaró's new product can certainly get the job done. It provides a granular look at dealership operations, which can will allow for better planning and decision-making.

Patent Bots LLC Releases New Legal Rankings for Tracking Patent Quality

SOMERVILLE, Mass. -- Patent Bots today announced its Patent Law Firm Quality Scores, a new ranking of 802 U.S. patent law firms with at least 50 issued patents for the year ending March 31, 2020. Patent Bots downloaded 310,842 publicly available patents from the United States Patent and Trademark Office and then used the company's AI-powered, automated patent proofreading tool to count the number of errors in each issued patent. Issued patents identify the law firm responsible for the patent and also the company that owns the patent.

The Patent Law Firm Quality Scores provide public recognition for patent firms doing exceptionally high-quality work in avoiding legal errors in issued patents. The Quality Scores show the names of only the top fifty firms (e.g., those with the lowest number of errors per issued patent). Patent law firms outside of the top 50 can login to the Patent Bots website to see their own quality scores and where they stand with respect to other patent law firms.

"Automated patent proofreading helps decrease the number of errors in issued patents," says Jeff O'Neill, Patent Bots Founder and CEO. "Patent law firms are recognizing the importance of doing quality work and are subscribing to our proofreading tool to move up in our rankings."

Benefits of the Quality Scores rankings include:
* A novel, highly relevant, objective measure of the quality of work performed by patent law firms.
* Recognition for firms that score well, demonstrating their dedication to patent quality.
* A catalyst for underperforming firms to improve the quality of their work.

Patent Bots will update these rankings on a quarterly basis and highlight firms who are improving their Quality Scores. Moreover, Patent Bots plans on releasing more data-driven insights about other aspects of patent quality to improve the patent industry.

About Patent Bots:

Patent Bots' automated patent proofreading tool enables patent attorneys to use cutting edge machine learning to provide their clients with better patents. In addition to proofreading, Patent Bots has a suite of products that includes patent examiner statistics, an art unit predictor, patent family trees, patent timelines, and more.

New Touchless Hot Desk and Meeting Room Management Version Helps Better Workplace Safety for the Post-Pandemic Return to Work

NEW YORK CITY, N.Y. -- To meet the changing work dynamic brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, ResourceXpress Inc. has announced a major upgrade to its flagship ResourceXpress Workspace and Conference Room booking solution to enable touchless booking, social distancing and support for safety restrictions in office hot desk or hoteling workspaces and conference rooms.

The pandemic has created pressure to implement socially-distanced office workspace and meeting room environments, reducing the density and capacity of existing real-estate and requiring organizations to better utilize the space they have. In many cases, employees will no longer have permanent desks, they will book hot desk usage for when they are in the office location.

Gartner Group suggests nearly three in four CFOs plan to shift at least 5% of previously on-site employees to remote positions. Similarly, a recent Osterman Research publication reported over 50% of organizations will increase their work-from-home policies.

Touchless Devices and Mobile First for Safety

To address the new office environment, Version 5 of ResourceXpress introduces hands free use of its Aura LED meeting room screens and QUBI3 desk screens to the workspace. This leverages built-in RFID technology to touchlessly read security badges to book, check-in and extend the use of a workspace.

Additionally, a QR code can be embedded into a meeting room screen display so the employee can use their mobile phone to scan the QR code and book the space directly from their phone. The kiosk capability of ResourceXpress allows a user to use their mobile device or a regularly sanitized touch-screen kiosk to view a floorplan map showing room and hot desk availability and out-of-service status.

Social Distancing and Safety Restrictions

ResourceXpress V5 introduces an automatic cleandown extension to a booking to allow cleaning staff to decontaminate a workspace before the next person uses it.

The new "ringfencing" feature restricts contiguous workspace usage, so if an employee books a space, the related workspaces are automatically put into an "out-of-service" color-coded status so they cannot be booked.

And by capturing data about when employees book hot desks and attend meetings, ResourceXpress can assist in contact tracing procedures.

ResourceXpress' Broadcast feature allows room screens to display policy reminders to employees on the use of workspaces.

ResourceXpress integrates with most enterprise calendaring and workplace management systems including Office365, Google, Accruent (EMS) and FM:Systems (Resource Scheduler). It can be installed in a SaaS cloud environment or in the customer's data center.

V5 of ResourceXpress will be available in June 2020.

Clive Horton, CEO of ReSoft International in New York City, the master reseller for ResourceXpress in North America, comments "The pandemic is bringing about enormous change to work practices and technologies like ResourceXpress will help in providing a safe, secure environment for employees".

Andy Fisher, Business Development Manager for ResourceXpress Inc. adds "We have listened closely to our customers and are committed to introducing a range of additional features which reflect new ways of working to ensure the workplace is a safer place."
