Nashville, TN, June 16, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Today’s travellers expect roaming broadband connections wherever they go. However, while on-board an airplane, passengers and crew find that existing broadband services are expensive, slow or non-existent.

SmartSky Networks is tackling the challenge to give full in-flight access to email, SMS, social media and online video streaming services via smartphones, tablets and laptops.

A new Air-to-Ground (ATG) network based on 4G LTE technology has been implemented by SmartSky Networks. Over 250 ground-based cell towers send signals up to an aircraft’s antennas. As a plane travels into different sections of airspace it transparently connects to the signal from the nearest cell tower, just as a mobile phone does on the ground. This allows SmartSky to offer uninterrupted high-bandwidth in-flight connectivity to passengers and crew. Video calls can be conducted and movies can be streamed, with no buffering. This real-time, low latency, bidirectional link will usher in the digitization of the aviation industry.

Frank Wang, Principle Network Architect at SmartSky Networks, explains, “At each ground-station we install an electronics cabinet that contains Cisco routers, antennas, and other specialist equipment critical for the ATG network. We needed a way to access the serial console port of all the equipment to manage and monitor it remotely. Cisco recommended Perle Console Servers.”

Perle Console Servers are used to remotely monitor, access and manage all equipment in the ground-stations via their console ports. As the ground-stations are spread throughout the USA, some in extremely remote sites, it was important for all equipment to be reliable, temperature hardened and Telco certified.

Wang comments, “The Perle Console Servers have a very good interface which we have found easy to install and use. We need to be sure that all the equipment we use is reliable. And it is.”

San Francisco, CA, June 16, 2018 --(PR.com)-- B A S U eAlarm is a tiny device the size of a USB drive that initiates a 120 decibel alarm when the pin is pulled. The deafening alarm has been proven to deter criminals and attract attention. According to BASU.COM PR Associate Libby Cha, “Research shows alarms are the best possible deterrent when it comes to crime prevention. In fact, one rigorous academic study documents that 68% of criminals leave a scene completely empty-handed when an alarm is activated. If we can decrease the risk of a mugging or kidnapping by 68%, we are on the right track.”

The cool looking gadget generates moving user success stories on a regular basis. Users are known for uploading their testimonies directly to BASU.COM. The most recent and outstanding success story came from a college student in California. The UC Berkeley student prevented a mugging at a train station; she activated her alarm, deterring two attackers who took off running.

Unlike other safety devices, the eAlarm does not require the user to confront an attacker. This innovative technique is what makes the device special. “The point is to prevent an attack, rather than engage in one,” Cha says. “Most people who carry a small weapon like a knife or pepper spray aren’t professionally trained, and end up hurting themselves or arming their attacker. With a loud alarm, you can activate it from a distance to safely deter a perceived threat." This has made it very popular with explorers/solo-travelers, and students/families alike.

“It’s an incredibly effective crime deterrent,” said Sam Mansen, BASU.COM CEO, "People put alarms on their homes and cars, but not themselves or their children. Why not? Life is much more valuable, I think.”

B A S U has partnered with Amazon India, the country’s third largest e-commerce site. Repeatedly claiming the #1 Best Seller position on Amazon’s U.S. platform, the eAlarm is available on Amazon.in in four colors.

“Thousands of international browsers have expressed the unsatisfied need for this device to be made widely available in their respective countries,” said Dr. Shubhankar Basu, BASU.COM Co-founder and Technical Adviser. “We’re thrilled to be making the eAlarm more accessible to the Indian market.”

Taipei, Taiwan, June 16, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Recently, the concept of “smart city” has been on the rise globally, with its peripheral products and applications becoming new favorites on the market. Supergeo is pleased that Sun Moon Lake National Scenic Area Administration also catches up this trend, collaborating with Supergeo to develop a mobile tour guide app in Shueili Che-Cheng, which is a fast and easy tool for tourists to follow the tourist attractions and get more information about this place.

Che-Cheng, the terminal station of Jiji Railway, was a once prosperous transit center where many trains were coming and going to load and unload wood lumbers and cane sugar every day. After the 921 earthquake, the officials of Sun Moon Lake National Scenic Area Administration has put lots of efforts on the reconstruction of Che-Cheng, and it finally comes back to life with various tourism industries like railway, electricity, woods, winery springing up in the past few years. Surrounded by the beautiful lakes and hills, Che-Cheng has become increasingly attractive and popular among tourists and a wonderful “secret garden” to get away from the city bustle. As the number of tourists increasing rapidly in Che-Cheng these days, applying advanced technology to improve the quality of travel services undoubtedly becomes the most important thing to do.

Supergeo’s product team is composed of a group of experienced product developers and marketing executives. They are good at developing the customized app that targets towards the special needs of customers. In this case, Supergeo has built up the mobile tour guide app in Shueili Che-Cheng by itself. By using this app, visitors are not only allowed to search for scenic spots and famous stores in Che-Cheng, they are also able to use AR that makes more interaction possible and Bluetooth beacons for indoor navigation, which are very new and creative ways to have fun in Che-Cheng. In addition, Supergeo also developed the administration system for Che-Cheng area. The supervisors can grasp the current status of the area anytime through the Dashboard interface, and collect the feedback data from APP users to better the service quality. Now, in the era of “smart city,” Supergeo will be the most trustworthy partner that provides you the best solution for a smart living.

Northvale, NJ, June 17, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Advanced Thermal Solutions, Inc. (ATS), a leading-edge thermal engineering and manufacturing company focused on the thermal management of electronics, and New Yorker Electronics have announced a new distribution partnership.

With design engineers being asked to work in smaller and smaller spaces – while increasing functionality – addressing the resulting increase in heat densities has become a major concern. Today, thermal issues are being addressed early on in the development process to avoid future problems. Connecting heatsinks to the heat-generating devices is one way of ensuring high levels of heat transfer protection.

The new partnership between ATS and New Yorker Electronics gives greater flexibility to customers in Medical, LED, Embedded Computing, Aerospace, Military & Defense, Automotive and Telecom segments. The full line of ATS air and liquid cooling products is now available through New Yorker Electronics, adding a reliable thermal manufacturer to the distributor’s extensive line of electronics components.

“We are excited to work with Advanced Thermal Solutions and we are confident that our customers will benefit from the innovative technology and competitive pricing that ATS brings to the electronics cooling market,” said Sandy Slivka, CEO of New Yorker Electronics. “Thermal considerations are no longer a design afterthought and we are happy to provide our customers with a serious advantage in this area with ATS.”

From heatsinks, including the industry-leading maxiFLOW with its spread fin array to maximize surface area or the popular Power Brick heat sinks designed to cool DC/DC power converters, to liquid cooling products, such as high-performance liquid cold plates and heat exchangers, to an extensive line of off-the-shelf heat pipes, ATS provides solutions to meet the industry’s toughest thermal challenges.

New Yorker Electronics is a franchised distributor for ATS and carries its full line of High-Performance Heat Sinks and Heat Sink Tools and Attachments, Closed and Open Loop Wind Tunnels and Controllers, Round and Flat Heat Pipes, Advanced Fan Trays, Liquid Cooling: Flow Meters, Leak Detectors, Chillers and Heat Exchangers, TEC Assembly and Modules, and Next-Gen Test Instruments such as Temperature and Velocity Measurement, Pressure Measurement, Surface Thermography and other specialty instruments.

“Digital transformation is outpacing the abilities of traditional prevention and protection security methods,” said Kerry Bailey, eSentire CEO. “Distributed assets and an expanding threat surface continues to accelerate business risk. Traditional prevention must be paired with detection and response. When we think about MDR evolution, complete visibility into a customer’s environment is foundational. Without enriched signals and deep forensic information from across endpoints, the network, cloud, and other log sources, it’s impossible to detect and respond to an attack in near real-time. Ultimately, it’s about disrupting your adversary before they cause a business altering event.”

According to the guide, “Gartner clients state that they want more comprehensive threat detection and response services than are typically provided by many MSSPs,” and see the value in MDR services that include advanced detection and containment tools like managed endpoint detection and response (EDR).

Covert techniques targeting the endpoint are on the rise. eSentire Threat Intelligence reports that 91% of critical Q1 2018 security events resulted from endpoint events which retrieved and executed malicious code from remote sources through known, legitimate binaries, like PowerShell or MSHTA. These processes are used by opportunistic and targeted threats alike, allowing them to circumvent basic controls to deliver and install malware.

In late January 2018, an eSentire advanced threat analytics operation (powered by machine learning and coined “Blue Steel”), detected an adversary leveraging an unknown exploit in Kaseya’s Virtual System Administrator (VSA) product to deploy crypto miners across the infrastructure of a small number of eSentire customers. The attack broadly targeted the trusted system of MSPs and cloud platforms through Kaseya VSA endpoint agents for initial access to deliver malicious scripts. eSentire discovered the threat and notified Kaseya of the intrusions, resulting in multiple security fixes.

eSentire MDR aggregates and combines all signals across the entire threat surface at scale, with expert analysis augmented by machine learning. The company touts a 99.97% false positive reduction by maximizing security analyst efficiency through automated event suppression.

Windhof, Luxembourg, June 18, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Identity and Access Management (IAM) can be roughly defined as the security discipline that enables the right individuals to access the right resources at the right times for the right reasons. In more specific terms, IAM addresses the mission-critical need to ensure appropriate access to resources across more and more demanding heterogeneous technology environments and to meet increasingly demanding compliance requirements.

Today, this security practice is a crucial undertaking for any enterprise. As trust is essential for the success of digital business, IAM is rapidly becoming a key differentiator in the enablement of innovative digital services. As such, it must encompass all of the entities that participate in business initiatives, their relationships, their interactions and everything that brokers those relationships and interactions.

Systems used for identity and access management include single sign-on systems, multifactor authentication and access management. These technologies also provide the ability to securely store identity and profile data as well as data governance functions to ensure that only data that is necessary and relevant is shared, which is particularly valuable when it comes to meeting regulatory constraints such as those introduced by the new European data protection framework, GDPR.

“Although many organizations still have on-premise Identity and Access Management platforms, enterprises are more and more looking at IAM solutions in the Cloud to support them in having a single-source of truth for digital identities, to be able to manage access to APIs and data in the Cloud, and to provide self-service profile management, while fully benefiting from market-standards such as OAuth and OpenID,” Ronald van Luttikhuizen told the audience attending eProseed’s TechForum.

“Organizations that have a lot of on-premise IT resources tend to build a Chinese wall around them and keep the inbound traffic to a minimum. But this approach is no longer sustainable,” he said. “Today companies have good reasons to move to the cloud - and particularly to PaaS - for IAM. The advantages include speed of provisioning, support of new standards such as OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect and SCIM, high level of self-service, and valuable insight on the data as well as automated tools to clean up unnecessary or inappropriate data, notably with regard to governance and regulatory constraints.”

Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) is a cloud-native comprehensive security and identity management platform. IDCS provides a set of hybrid identity features to maintain a single identity for each user across their on-premise and in the cloud services.

“IDCS is a full construct for managing users and roles within an organization. It is a 100% open and standards-based solution that allows for a unified approach to complete identity governance. IDCS encompasses self-service, compliance, identity intelligence, and privileged access. It is based on four pillars: self-service, compliance, identity intelligence and privileged access,” explained Fabien Henriet.

After having presented in greater detail some key features of IDSC, Fabien Henriet summarized the main benefits brought by Oracle’s hybrid access management platform. “IDCS is a complete suite that embeds numerous components for managing user identities and entitlements, supporting authentication and authorization mechanisms. One of the main strengths of IDCS lies in its centralized identity management capabilities. IT organizations can apply it to any type of topology, be it on-premises applications or using code from any third party vendor. IDSC maximizes the integrations between heterogeneous systems as it’s based on SCIM and leverages 100% open standards-based protocols. With IDCS, there is no need to enforce the security with the related security framework in each application, but simply to integrate the applications with the existing suite. Although a lot of components are provided with IDCS, they can all be managed in the Cloud, reducing complexity and allowing for fast provisioning.”

Ronald van Luttikhuizen further underlined that eProseed was the first Oracle partner who had implemented Oracle API Platform Cloud Service, including IDCS and OAuth 2.0. The company has also developed one of the first pilots for Idensys, the new platform for online identification in the Netherlands, with Oracle’s Access Management suite. eProseed has designed the security architecture of one of the biggest municipalities in the Netherlands and is a member of the technical advisory board for government standards on secure message exchanges.

San Diego, CA, June 18, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Dr. James Jafolla, President of Surface Optics Corporation, presented at the 13th International IR Target and Background Modeling & Simulation Workshop (ITBMS) convened in Banyuls-sur-mer, France. The ITBMS workshop is a forum for the IR modeling and simulation community to discuss current developments in their field of expertise. Dr. Jafolla’s presentation was titled, “The Prediction and Measurement of the Optical Properties of Complex Surfaces.”

“Determining the optical properties of complex surfaces for signature analysis can be problematic,” said Dr. Jafolla. “Materials with surface structures such as crinkled or patterned foil appliques, striated or ribbed surfaces will produce a non-isotropic BRDF, which can be difficult to measure and represent in signature models.”

The presentation described analytical approaches to optical property prediction using a ray tracing algorithm and faceted model of the surface structure, materials and bulk optical properties. The presentation also discussed potential parameterized approaches for inclusion in signature models and a comparison to measurements from the SOC-210 BDR Bidirectional Reflectometer. The SOC-210 BDR Bidirectional Reflectometer is a precision laboratory instrument designed for mapping bidirectional reflectance distribution functions (BRDF) of surfaces, paints, coatings, liquids, and particles.

The ITBMS 2018 workshop ran from June 11-14 and was co-organized by ONERA, The French Aerospace Lab and Fraunhofer IOSB Fraunhofer (Institute of Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation).

Dr. Jafolla received his Ph.D. from the Department of Physics and Atmospheric Sciences at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA. He has extensive experience in the application of light scattering techniques to materials and surfaces for engineering problems concerning controlled emissivity surfaces. As the Director of Target Technologies at Photon Research Associates, he developed the Coatings Reflectance Engineering Evaluation Program (CREEP) for performing light scattering analysis of pigmented paint coatings and composite surfaces and was the Director of IR/EO Materials Technology at McDonnell Douglas Technologies, Inc. In 1990, Dr. Jafolla joined Surface Optics Corporation as Chief Scientist, where he continued his research into the light scattering properties of materials, including the analysis of Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF), Directional Hemispherical Reflectance (DHR), and the effects of enhanced retro-reflectance.
