Hitachi Energy brings 5G connectivity to mission-critical industrial and utility operations

Zurich, Switzerland, Feb. 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

Hitachi Energy has today announced the launch of its new TRO600 series wireless routers with 5G capability, which are purpose–built to help industrial and utility customers achieve high reliability and resiliency in mission–critical operations.

With the integration of 5G technology, Hitachi Energy's TRO600 series routers enable a scalable, flexible and secure, hybrid wireless communication architecture. A hybrid network seamlessly combines the best of public and private cellular with broadband mesh, all managed through a single network management system. This approach unifies communications to all devices, ensuring fast, secure, and reliable connectivity for each operational need.

“At Hitachi Energy, we are proud to pioneer 5G–enabled communication devices for industrial and utility customers, ensuring connectivity where and when it matters most,” said Massimo Danieli, Managing Director of Hitachi Energy's Grid Automation business. He added, “5G is essential on our path to decentralize and decarbonize the energy system and to accelerate the energy transition. With 5G, businesses can further expand a data–driven approach to efficiently manage their energy demand and balance the load on the grid.”

“5G delivers significant connectivity performance improvements for the growing number of mobile, remote, and outdoor applications and complex use cases within industry, transportation, smart cities, and public safety,” said Chantal Polsonetti, Vice President, Advisory Services at ARC Advisory Services. “Given its history and leadership in building and managing power and communication networks, Hitachi Energy is well–positioned to help industrial companies harness the power of 5G as they pursue digital transformation,” she added.

Integrating 5G connectivity in the TRO600 series ensures optimal efficiency for multiple customer use cases across smart cities, oil and gas, mining, manufacturing, and utility applications.

Innovation in Natural, Clean Ingredients Ushers in Sensegen

Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif., Feb. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sensegen, southern California's new taste, smell, and beauty business, enters the ingredient market as the first 100% biotechnology–based solution provider serving these markets. Emerging as The Science of Good Sense, Sensegen's brand launch marks an 18–month incubation previously under the name Blue California Flavors and Fragrances.

"We're charting our course in clean and sustainable taste, smell, and beauty in a new and exciting way," said Kathy Oglesby, chief value creation officer. "Under one roof, perfumers, flavorists, biologists, and chemists are working together, inspired by nature, and disciplined by science."

Collaborating in their modern and well–equipped Creative Center, the designers are market–focused on biotechnology–based ingredient solutions to design and customize clean–label collections. The Creative Center is full service and state–of–the–art in capability, housing flavor, fragrance, cosmetic, and personal care creation teams supported by analytical chemistry, applications development, and sensory science teams.

Taste, smell, and beauty brands are encouraged to peruse Sensegen's new website sensegen.com to gain insight into Sensegen's collections, provenance, philosophy, biobased technology, sensible ingredient innovation process, transparent business practices, and sustainability position.

"Sensegen is committed to supporting brands to meet consumers' expectations of reducing the environmental footprint of their products and inspiring repeat purchases," said Oglesby. "We are 100% focused on true–to–nature, sustainable, and clean ingredients made possible by biotechnology."

Oglesby further states, "The beauty of biotech in ingredient creation is monumental. It is significantly more sustainable than agriculturally derived and petroleum–based ingredients."

Consumers are seeking to buy clean and sustainable products, and they are expecting companies to change from synthetic to natural. In an Edelman Trust survey, consumers confirmed that they expect companies and business leaders to address and solve macro socio–environmental challenges. And in a 2020 World Economic Forum survey, it appears evident that many are willing to participate actively in building back a better world alongside the brands they choose. In responses from 21,000 people and 28 countries, the survey reported that 86% want to see more sustainable and equitable products in the post–pandemic market.

"Sensegen's launch marks our commitment to The Way Forward – an evolving journey to reinvent natural taste, smell, and beauty solutions," said Oglesby. "Always customer–focused, our disruptive and provocative business model is based on co–creation, transparency, and partnering to produce clean–label solutions that are easy on the planet."

Disruptive innovations to date include plant–based musk "" one of the fragrance industry's favorite types of materials. Plantarome M is the first biotech source of musk, a highly strategic option for the market with natural animal sources unethical to harvest and, plant sources too costly for mainstream use. Other musk offerings are synthetic, many of which have already been banned in major markets or are limited in concentration due to safety concerns.

The fermentation and bioconversion processes of innovation partner, Conagen, produce optically active molecules that are precisely what nature makes. "Our innovation partnership with Conagen, where there is a natural flow of creativity and intelligence between market and science, creates great value for us and for our customers," said Oglesby. “And our market success and expansion into beauty demonstrates it."

Another advantage of biotechnology–based ingredients is that they can sidestep wobbles in supply chains caused by poor weather, seasonality, and inconsistent plant harvest quality without resorting to synthetic substitutes.

Oglesby foresees, "What we created in 2021 with Conagen is a prelude to the great achievements that will be revealed in 2022.”

Sensegen's new market focus is evolving into three pillars:

The extensive portfolio of true–to–nature liquid flavors will be expanded in 2022 to include powders and new delivery as the tonality excellence will be applied to other sweet flavors and plant–based offerings.

  • Smell (Air Care, Home Care, Fabric Care, Personal Care, and Fine Fragrance)

New captives form the basis for the growing collection of "the new naturals" for fragranced consumer products. Sensegen's fragrances fill a white space for naturals in the fragrance market moving toward today's synthetics in both variety and technical performance.

  • Beauty (Personal Care, Hair and Skin Care, and Cosmetics)

Coming soon is a line of clean, novel, proprietary offerings as well as natural and sustainable qualities of market favorites.

"We're driving the pipeline of taste, smell, and beauty into the 21st century with the guidance of nature and science, driven by the "savoir faire' of the fragrance, flavor, and cosmetic industries," concluded Oglesby.

###

About Sensegen

Sensegen, is the science of good sense. We've got nature down to a science.

As a division of Blue California Ingredients, our innovative taste, smell, and beauty creative center is dedicated solely to delivering plant–based, natural, and sustainable solutions. Our diverse team of experts collaborate with advanced bio–techniques and collaborate as a team to provide unique consumer–validated ingredients.

At Sensegen, we've pioneered a way of formulating nature without compromise or harm; providing one–of–a–kind solutions for Taste, Smell, and Beauty.

FINAL DEADLINE ALERT: ROSEN, GLOBAL INVESTOR COUNSEL, Encourages Marathon Digital Holdings, Inc. f/k/a Marathon Patent Group, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important February 15 Deadline in Securities Class Action – MARA

NEW YORK, Feb. 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Marathon Digital Holdings, Inc. f/k/a Marathon Patent Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: MARA) between October 13, 2020 and November 15, 2021, inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important February 15, 2022 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Marathon securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Marathon class action, go to http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases–register–2229.html or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll–free at 866–767–3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than February 15, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the complaint, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Marathon's joint venture with Beowulf Energy LLC, as it related to a series of agreements with multiple parties to design and build a data center in Hardin, Montana, implicated potential regulatory violations, including U.S. securities law violations; (2) as a result, the Beowulf Joint Venture subjected Marathon to a heightened risk of regulatory scrutiny; (3) the foregoing was reasonably likely to have a material negative impact on Marathon's business and commercial prospects; and (4) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the Marathon Digital Holdings class action, go to http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases–register–2229.html or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll–free at 866–767–3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Legit Security Launches Out of Stealth with Series A Investment to Secure Software Supply Chains

TEL AVIV, Israel, Feb. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Legit Security, a cyber security company with an enterprise SaaS solution to secure an organization's software supply chain, today announced its launch out of stealth mode with a Series A $30 million funding announcement with leading venture capital firms Bessemer Venture Partners and TCV. Prior seed funding was provided by CyberStarts, the premier cybersecurity venture capital firm in Israel. Legit Security protects software supply chains from attack by automatically discovering and securing the pipelines, infrastructure, code and people so that businesses can stay safe while releasing software fast. The company will use the funds to expand its engineering team and continue building its go–to–market organization in the United States with offices in Austin and Palo Alto.

According to Gartner , 45% of organizations worldwide will have experienced attacks on their software supply chains by 2025, a three–fold increase from 2021. Companies can no longer rely solely on traditional security tools and code scanners for protection as more organizations adopt modern applications, agile development, and DevOps. These complex software supply chains at the heart of digital business and critical infrastructure are now prime targets for cyber–attacks, and require new security solutions.

"Enterprises increasingly rely on software to do business, and they're adopting cloud, DevOps, CI/CD and agile techniques to move fast," said Roni Fuchs, CEO of Legit Security. "However, this has created a huge new, unprotected attack surface that cybercriminals have targeted, and their attacks are escalating. Right now, enterprises don't need another code scanner. They need a holistic security solution for the broader software supply chain environment. That's why we founded Legit Security and brought on world–class cybersecurity experts that share the same vision."

"Legit provides a single pane of glass to mitigate software development risk," said Bob Durfee, Head of DevSecOps at Takeda Pharmaceutical Company. "We're now able to inventory all our SDLC systems and security tools, view developer activity, and detect and remediate vulnerabilities across them fast. Legit's security scoring also allows me to measure the security posture of different teams and show progress improving it."

Legit Security helps companies protect their end–to–end software supply chain environment and software releases through automated vulnerability discovery and analysis, security policy enforcement, and continuous assurance. The platform scans software development pipelines for gaps and leaks, development infrastructure and systems within those pipelines, and the people and their security hygiene as they operate within it. The solution doesn't interfere with existing development tools and workflows, and includes continuous assurance and governance capabilities to monitor adherence to regulatory requirements and compliance frameworks in real–time.

"Legit helps us secure our CI/CD pipelines including tracking the security posture of our different teams and workspaces, addressing SDLC configuration drifts, and helping us apply security resources where it can help us most," said Erik Bataller, VP of Security, ACV Auctions. "Legit's platform enables our developers to maintain high velocity with minimal security friction and allows us to identify risk factors and adjust accordingly."

"Legit is providing us with visibility across the entire supply chain, which helps us minimize risk and raise analyst productivity," said James Robinson, Deputy Chief Information Security Officer at Netskope. "Legit's platform nicely complements our existing investments in application security tools and allows us to make better decisions in allocating our security controls and resources."

"Legit Security's platform visualizes and analyzes our software pipelines quickly to help ensure security compliance with regulatory frameworks, as well as the unique compliance requirements of some of our large financial services partners," said Or Cohen, Principal Engineer at Melio. "Legit's solution saves us time and resources and allows us to manage risk better."

“Software supply chain attacks will continue to grow until new solutions are available to close diverse security gaps across these environments," said Amit Karp, Partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. "We love how Legit developed an enterprise solution that is easy to deploy and delivers value in a couple hours."

Legit Security is led by CEO Roni Fuchs, CTO Liav Caspi, and VP of R&D Lior Barak and has assembled a team of security experts from the renowned Israeli Defense Force's Unit 8200, Checkmarx, Ping Identity, Duo/Cisco, Microsoft and other leading cybersecurity firms in the U.S. and Israel.
