Kiteworks Releases Its 2023 Forecast for Managing Private Content Exposure Risk Report

15 predictions on data privacy and compliance that provide guidance to IT, security, risk, and compliance leaders in 2023

PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kiteworks, which delivers data privacy and compliance for sensitive content communications through its Private Content Network, released its 2023 Forecast for Managing Private Content Exposure Risk Report that reveals 15 predictions for private content and sensitive content communications based on cybercrime, cybersecurity, and compliance insights.

Managing private content exposure risk is a crucial priority today—and one that is growing in scope. Organizations must have comprehensive security and compliance capabilities in place to protect the sends, shares, receives, and stores of sensitive content. They must also demonstrate compliance with robust security frameworks and standards, such as SOC 2, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), and ISO 27001, as well as governmental and industry regulations, such as the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC 2.0), Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS 140-2), and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Managing private content exposure risk poses a significant undertaking for IT, security, risk, and compliance leaders. “Our team meets with thousands of private and public sector organizations during the year, and the 15 cybercrime, cybersecurity, and compliance areas we identified in the report will play an increasingly important role in how organizations manage risk in 2023,” said Yaron Galant, Chief Product Officer at Kiteworks. “As the exchange of private digital data becomes more ubiquitous and bad actors embrace attack vectors that are increasingly advanced and complex, the risk of data theft, ransomware attacks, and compliance violations grows. In response, organizations require a content-defined zero-trust approach that protects private data while demonstrating compliance with cybersecurity frameworks and standards and data privacy regulations.”

Some notable trends in the 2023 Forecast Report include:

  • Organizations increasingly recognize multitenant cloud hosting provides cyberattackers with fertile ground for pinpointing software vulnerabilities, developing complex exploits, and ultimately intercepting sensitive content moving through the software supply chain.
  • Content-defined zero trust is becoming the standard for businesses to protect their unstructured data, using policy-driven tracking and controls, from cybercriminals and rogue nation-states.
  • Organizations storing private content in the public cloud, and therefore only co-managing their encryption keys, will increasingly seek out private cloud alternatives to mitigate snooping by law enforcement and security agencies.
  • Artificial intelligence (AI), used to detect anomalous data shares and transfers, will see broader adoption by organizations looking to better govern and protect their sensitive content.
  • Risk management professionals will further embrace adding layers of security that make it harder for bad actors to infiltrate networks and exfiltrate sensitive content.

To learn more about these and the remaining data exposure risk forecasts for 2023, IT, security, risk, and compliance leaders can access the report and other content related to it, including register for a webinar panel discussion, here.

About Kiteworks

Kiteworks’ mission is to empower organizations to effectively manage risk in every send, share, receive, and save of sensitive content. The Kiteworks platform provides customers with a Private Content Network that delivers content governance, compliance, and protection. The platform unifies, tracks, controls, and secures sensitive content moving within, into, and out of their organization, significantly improving risk management and ensuring regulatory compliance on all sensitive content communications.

AUM Biosciences Receives FDA Orphan Drug Designation for AUM302 for the Treatment of Neuroblastoma

AUM302 has potential to be the first multi-kinase inhibitor class of drug in Neuroblastoma

SINGAPORE and BETHESDA, Md., Nov. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AUM Biosciences Pte. Ltd. (“AUM”), a global clinical-stage biotech company focused on discovering and developing precision oncology therapeutics, announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted Orphan Drug Designation for AUM302, a potential first-in-class oral kinase inhibitor that targets not only PI3K, but also key resistance mechanisms such as PIM and mTOR, for the treatment of neuroblastoma.

“The Orphan Drug Designation for AUM302 is the second Orphan Drug Designation we have received for our products this year, marking a significant milestone for AUM as we advance our diverse pipeline of precision oncology therapeutics designed to reverse cancer resistance,” said Vishal Doshi, Founder and CEO of AUM. “AUM302 has the potential to be the first-in-class multi-kinase inhibitor for treatment of neuroblastoma. The FDA decision reinforces the strength of our drug development strategy and clinical trial design to deliver affordable, safe, and effective oncology treatments.”

Preclinical studies of AUM302 have indicated that complementing conventional chemotherapy treatment with PIM/PI3K/mTOR inhibition has the potential to improve clinical outcomes in children with high-risk neuroblastoma as well as inhibit cancer cell growth, and prevent resistance emergence.

“Despite progress in understanding drug resistance over the last decade, knowledge gaps remain about the underlying biological causes of drug resistance and the design of cancer treatments to overcome it,” continued Mr. Doshi. “Our goal is to reverse cancer resistance with a broad portfolio of cost-effective therapies.”

Orphan Drug Designation status is granted by the FDA’s Office of Orphan Products Development to drug and biologic candidates that are intended for the treatment, diagnosis or prevention of rare diseases, meaning conditions that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. Orphan Drug Designation provides certain benefits, including financial incentives, to support clinical development and the potential for up to seven years of market exclusivity for the drug for the designated orphan indication in the U.S. if the drug is ultimately approved for its designated indication.

On October 20, 2022, AUM and Mountain Crest Acquisition Corp. V (Nasdaq: MCAG) (“Mountain Crest”), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company formed in Delaware, whose management team has an impressive pedigree of successful SPAC transactions, announced that they have entered into a definitive business combination agreement (the “Agreement”). Upon closing of the transaction, the combined company will operate under a holding entity, AUM Biosciences Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Holdco”), and intends to trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol AUMB.

About AUM302
AUM302 is a potential first-in-class oral kinase inhibitor rationally designed to uniquely combine pan-PIM kinase, pan-PI3K and mTOR inhibition in a single agent. This multi-targeting approach has been engineered into a single molecule that has the potential to inhibit multiple key intracellular pathways, increasing its ability to inhibit cancer cell growth and prevent resistance emergence. In early studies to date, AUM302 has shown promise with good tolerability and favourable drug properties. AUM302 is a unique multi-targeted cancer therapeutic that targets not only PI3K, but also key resistance mechanisms such as PIM and mTOR. AUM302 is a single molecule therapeutic designed to optimize inhibition of these key pathways.

About AUM Biosciences
AUM is a global clinical-stage oncology company focused on advancing a pipeline of precision oncology therapeutics designed to deploy multi-faceted inhibition strategies to reverse cancer resistance. AUM is advancing a broad portfolio of precision oncology therapeutics. AUM001 is a selective and synergistic MNK inhibitor as shown in current studies and expected to begin Phase 2 enrolment in the fourth quarter 2022. AUM601 is a promising therapy for tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusions and mutations within the kinase domain and is on track to enter Phase 2 planning. AUM302 is a potentially first-in-class macrocyclic oral kinase inhibitor rationally designed small molecule to uniquely combine pan-PIM kinase, pan-PI3K and mTOR inhibition in a single agent. Comprised of industry veterans with decades of research and development experience, the AUM leadership has an extensive track record of selecting distinctive early-stage assets, successfully exiting virtual biotech models, and has contributed to over 50 INDs and over 150 oncology clinical trials, and development of several currently marketed oncology treatments with annual peak sales up to $3 billion.

ZeroBounce Launches India Website

Email validation and deliverability company ZeroBounce announces the launch of its India website. The site (zerobounce.in) processes customer data strictly within India, easing concerns about the country’s upcoming privacy laws.

ZeroBounce India

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Nov. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Email validation and deliverability company ZeroBounce announces the launch of its India website. The site (zerobounce.in) processes customer data strictly within India, easing concerns about the country’s upcoming privacy laws.

The new site is a result of user feedback and allows ZeroBounce’s customers the option to store and process all of their data solely within India. ZeroBounce hosts all of its related services in India, including the front and back-end website.

ZeroBounce.in goes live in the wake of India’s latest draft of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Bill. First proposed in 2018, the bill aims to give individuals greater control over their data privacy. The DPDP Bill has had many iterations, including its withdrawal in August 2022. On Nov. 18, 2022, a new draft went up for public consultation and will be presented in Parliament next year.

“The DPDP Bill is neither final, nor the law, but its principles remain a potential concern for many companies in India,” explains ZeroBounce COO Brian Minick. “While we await guidance from a final bill, we created the new site and functionality to provide additional comfort for our existing and soon-to-be Indian clientele. ZeroBounce will continue to iterate on the site and functionality until there is a final bill.”

Furthermore, ZeroBounce employs military-grade data protection mechanisms. The company complies with GDPR protocols and has attained international security certifications such as SOC 2 Type 2, CCPA, and ISO 27001.

“The new site and functionality demonstrate our commitment to our Indian clients, and the steps we’re willing to take to ensure compliance with current and future local data privacy laws,” says ZeroBounce CEO Liviu Tanase.

Soon, ZeroBounce will also relaunch its platform Zerobounce.net, with an increased email validation accuracy of 99%, a more intuitive user experience, higher speeds, and better overall performance of its tools.

About ZeroBounce

ZeroBounce is an email verification and deliverability platform helping 200,000+ customers land more emails in the inbox.

The software removes email typos, nonexistent and abuse email accounts, spam traps, and other risky email addresses. ZeroBounce’s email deliverability toolkit further supports the safe inbox delivery of transactional and marketing emails. The company operates a military-grade security infrastructure. It is GDPR and SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and ensures the highest levels of data protection.

ZeroBounce has validated more than 13 billion emails. Some of the companies it serves are Amazon, Disney, Netflix, LinkedIn, Sephora, Lodha Group, and Tata Nexarc.

In 2022, ZeroBounce founded Email Day (April 23), now an international holiday honoring email inventor Ray Tomlinson.

Movember Campaign Raises Awareness on Men’s Health

November is Men’s Health Awareness Month which is also known as Movember. It is created to raise awareness on men’s health, welfare and well-being apart from celebrating the positive role of men in the society. However, not many people are aware of such campaign. Since its introduction in Brunei Darussalam in 2020, Movember has received encouraging response not only from men but also from women.

 

Following the Movember campaign, men’s health issues need to be taken into consideration along with women’s health issues. Similar to women, men are not exempted from facing various health issues including cancer. Several individuals stated the Movember campaign also gave men in the country the opportunity to raise their awareness not only on physical health but also on mental health.

 

November is also an excuse for men to grow their moustache and beard as a symbolic show of support towards the Movember campaign. Despite no shaving for a month, moustache and beard care is always practised, as both are considered as ‘accessory’ for men.

 

Support and assistance from all parties also play a role in supporting the Movember month for men’s well-being. It is hoped that more awareness on men’s health and welfare can be raised through such a campaign.
