Government Regulations, TikTok Fears, Cyber Hacks: Sekur Private Data Ltd. Helps Companies Find Privacy And Security Compliance In An Online World

Benzinga

By David Willey, Benzinga Alain Ghiai, CEO of the cybersecurity and internet privacy company Sekur Private Data Ltd (OTCQB: SWISF) (CSE: SKUR) (FSE: GDT0), was recently interviewed by Ana Berry on the business news show “New To The Street. ” Ghiai spoke about how his data privacy company helps companies find private and secure messaging and communication solutions. The government has been enforcing privacy regulations against certain companies that allowed messaging on non-secure messaging apps. Last year, the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued fines totaling close to $1 billion to several banks for allowing their employees to use unauthorized services like private email and Whatsapp for sending banking information. Security concerns also led the government to ban the use of Tiktok on all federal devices. This is driven by fears that user data collected on the app is shared with the Chinese government. Bans have also been introduced or planned by some state governments, as well as several public universities. Data Safety And Privacy With Sekur Sekur actively helps companies satisfy government regulations as well as prioritize data privacy and security. Its suite of privacy solutions includes the SekurMail and SekurMessenger services for encrypted, secure communication. SekurMail is a military-grade, encrypted platform featuring a SekurSend/Reply function that allows users who don’t have Sekur to reply within the Sekur environment. SekurMessenger provides users with a secure Short Messaging Service (SMS) platform that is available in 80 countries for its “Chat-by-Invite” feature, letting Sekur users message non-Sekur users in SekurMessenger simply by clicking on a link sent by SMS or email. SekurMessenger includes a self-delete feature, as well as an archiving feature, an essential option for financial institutions that are required to keep records of all e-communication for seven to 10 years. It also launched its own Virtual Private Network (VPN) service, SekurVPN, to address the large market need for a trustworthy, turnkey data security service. These privacy solutions may be particularly attractive to companies looking to prioritize data security. Cyber attacks and hacks are increasingly common, and the cost of the damage from these attacks will have reached over $10 trillion by 2025. By locating its servers in Switzerland, Sekur can take advantage of the tough Swiss data privacy laws. Ghiai told Berry that users who signed up with the code PRIVACY will get a 15% discount on their monthly or annual subscription to Sekur’s products. This offer is good for five years for uninterrupted subscriptions. Sekur customers who bundle multiple Sekur services will also get a discount on their purchases, and the company reports that this is a popular choice among its subscribers. In a recent statement, Ghiai commented that “Our prime directive is to provide private and secure communications for everyone, and, as we are not connected to any Big Tech cloud platform, we offer a truly independent, private and secure means of communications without any data mining.” Learn more about Sekur and check out its privacy solutions today.

As IMF Deputy Director Issues AI Warning, Workers Are Unprepared For Disruptions Caused By Advent Of AI – Amesite Is Looking To Change That

Amesite Inc.

By David Willey, Benzinga Click here to download the latest research report on Amesite. The technology of tomorrow is rapidly becoming the economy of today, and governments and workers are unprepared for the changes, said Gita Gopinath, Deputy Director of the International Monitory Fund (IMF), in a recent interview with the Financial Times. Artificial intelligence (AI) is here to stay, and it is already changing how people live and work. As technology reshapes the marketplace, governments and institutions need to act fast, both in terms of implementing regulations but also “also in terms of preparing for probable substantial disruptions in labor markets,” said Gopinath. She highlighted the potential for particularly extreme changes – that will include both benefits and disruptions – coming from large-language models like ChatGPT. In previous decades, the assumption has been that individuals and economies would adjust to new technologies. “The lesson we have learned is that it was a very bad assumption to make,” concluded Gopinath. That is why online platform and course developer Amesite (NASDAQ: AMST) has made it its mission to help institutions upskill both students and workforces. It is rejecting the complacency model that has failed workers in the past and is working with businesses, universities, government agencies and others to help prepare them to thrive in a changing economic and technological environment. Amesite Works With Business And Schools Amesite has always had a technology-first approach, and to support its eLearning offerings, the company recently launched Version 6.0 (V6) of its platform website. Amesite’s white-label, scalable platform is designed to host courses from businesses and learning institutions that help them upskill and reskill their employees. As part of its commitment to helping the transition to an AI-powered economy, it launched a free course on the fundamentals of ChatGPT and has integrated several AI capabilities into V6. Amesite is positioning itself as a leader in adopting AI in the educational sector, which it believes places it at the vanguard of AI development and integration. An Ipsos survey from late 2021 found that education was the sector people thought most likely to be impacted by AI. Bill Gates has also recently commented on the transformation that AI could bring to education, saying AI has the potential to take learning to a “whole new level.” One way Amesite is helping change education is through its partnership with the National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education (NAFEO). Amesite is working with NAFEO-affiliated colleges and universities to deliver upskilling content through NAFEO’s Center for Opportunity, Excellence and Equity (COEE) learning management system. Amesite also recently partnered with Michigan Works! Southeast (MWSE) to provide training materials through MWSE’s Learning Community Environment system. Other companies looking to adapt in the eLearning sector include Coursera Inc. (NYSE: COUR), 2U (NASDAQ: TWOU) and Powerschool Holdings Inc. (NYSE: PWSC). However, Amesite cites data from a third-party source indicating it has both a higher positive consumer sentiment score and a lower negative sentiment score than any of its competitors. This puts it in a strong leadership position in the AI-powered learning sector, according to Amesite. Learn more about how Amesite is disrupting education with AI. Amesite Inc., an artificial intelligence driven platform and course designer, provides online products in the United States. The company uses machine learning to offer a mass customized experience to learners. Its customers include businesses, universities and colleges, K-12 schools, and non-profit organizations. The company was incorporated in 2017 and is headquartered in Detroit, Michigan. This post contains sponsored advertising content.
