SuperCom Ltd.’s (NASDAQ: SPCB) PureProtect(TM) Domestic Violence Monitoring Solution is Designed to Help Prevent Tragic Outcomes and Associated Litigation

 

• SuperCom is an electronic monitoring solutions developer and provider that offers the PureSecurity(TM) Suite, a comprehensive range of products that include a domestic violence monitoring solution, a GPS tracking platform called PureTrack(TM), a house arrest enforcement solution, and an inmate monitoring solution
• The company holds that its advanced domestic violence monitoring solution could play a vital role for enhancing public safety measures, particularly in light of a recent cases emphasizing the critical need for effective response in domestic violence situations
• An Illinois appellate court recently upheld a $3 million jury award to the estate of the late Vanessa Taylor, who was allegedly killed by her boyfriend, after finding sufficient evidence that two officers “cared more about going home” than protecting Taylor

On June 30, 2015, about 25 hours after the Chicago Police Department (“CPD”) had responded to a domestic violence call at a West Side, Chicago, apartment, Vanessa Taylor was allegedly killed by her boyfriend, James Thomas. The death led to a wrongful death and survival action lawsuit against the City of Chicago, following which a Cook County jury found the city liable for Taylor’s death and awarded her estate $3 million, “which is believed to be a record civil judgment under the Illinois Domestic Violence Act,” according to an article in the Chicago Tribune (https://nnw.fm/S1MTR). 

The jury found that Taylor’s death was caused by CPD’s breach of its duty to protect her under the Domestic Violence Act. When officers responded to the initial call, placed on June 28, they found Taylor’s boyfriend, James Thomas, in a mental health crisis that prompted them to transport him to the hospital. Once at the hospital, Thomas was given an antipsychotic sedative, administered a mental health examination by a physician, and discharged several hours later, court documents show (https://nnw.fm/mbRD3). 

By the time he was discharged, however, the police officers had already left the hospital and had gone home despite the fact that, when they responded to the call earlier, Taylor had a black eye, according to court records. Furthermore, Thomas had allegedly cut the gas line in Taylor’s building and tussled with the officers, actions the court listed as charges Thomas could have faced in connection with the incident. After being discharged, Thomas returned to the West Side apartment where he committed the alleged crime.

Justices of the Illinois First District Appellate Court recently released a strongly worded opinion upholding the $3 million jury award to the estate of the victim after finding sufficient evidence that two CPD officers “cared more about going home for the day than protecting a domestic violence victim who was killed by her alleged abuser a short time later,” the article reads.

“In light of the recent appellate court decision emphasizing the critical need for effective response in domestic violence situations, SuperCom’s advanced technology solution could play a vital role in enhancing public safety measures,” wrote SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) on its LinkedIn page (https://nnw.fm/jMMM3). SuperCom is a global leader in the field of electronics monitoring (“EM”). The company offers the PureSecurity(TM) Suite, a comprehensive range of products that include a domestic violence monitoring solution, a GPS tracking platform called PureTrack(TM), a house arrest enforcement solution, and an inmate monitoring solution.

“These innovative tools are designed to provide law enforcement and criminal justice agencies with real-time data and analytics, helping prevent tragic outcomes by ensuring constant monitoring and swift response in critical situations. SuperCom’s technology demonstrates a commitment to public safety and the protection of vulnerable individuals, aligning closely with the heightened need for effective and proactive measures in domestic violence cases,” SuperCom explained in the post.

SuperCom’s life-saving domestic monitoring solution is designed to monitor the movement of domestic violence aggressors, acting as a protective front line for victims. It combines several SuperCom technologies, including the PureProtect(TM) smartphone app, the PureTag ankle bracelet, and the PureMonitor software (https://nnw.fm/ae3Vl).

The PureProtect app is designed for victims. It detects proximity violations and alerts the victims whenever the domestic violence perpetrators near their location. The app uses advanced zoning, proximity, alerting, and management capabilities to both enforce a safe distance between the victims and perpetrators and update the former of the latter’s whereabouts. It achieves this without violating the victims’ privacy. The app also supports the latest GPS, cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth technologies, enabling it to communicate with the aggressor-worn PureTag ankle bracelet, which beams signals that report the wearer’s exact location.

Completing the list of technologies that make up SuperCom’s domestic monitoring solution is the PureMonitor software meant for law enforcement officers. The software tracks the location of the aggressors and victims, logging all real-time and historical instances when proximity breaches occur. It also alerts law enforcement officers of breaches and has reporting and analytics capabilities.

The PureProtect electronic domestic violence monitoring solution provides all the information needed to protect victims and enforce court restrictions. Its advanced zoning and alerting capabilities make it a vital tool in helping enforce safety measures and preventing avoidable tragic outcomes like domestic violence-related deaths.

D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) Announces Successful Completion of SOC 2 Type 2 Audit to Further Commitment to Data Security

 

• D-Wave’s completion of the SOC 2 Type 2 audit makes it the first full-stack quantum computing provider to achieve this compliance
• The company is deeply committed to data security as customers adopt the production use of its quantum computing solutions
• Going forward, D-Wave will perform annual SOC 2 Type 2 assessments, making the latest report available to current and potential clients upon completing a nondisclosure agreement

D-Wave Quantum (NYSE: QBTS), a leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services, and the world’s first commercial supplier of quantum computers, recently announced the successful completion of its SOC 2(R) Type 2 audit on December 7, 2023. This compliance verification, which evaluates a number of operational factors including processing integrity and security controls, is of growing importance, especially as D-Wave increases commercial customer adoption and production use of its quantum computing solutions. This notable achievement makes D-Wave the first full-stack quantum computing provider to achieve SOC 2 Type 2 compliance. The Type 2 compliance follows D-Wave’s successful SOC 2 Type 1 audit in March 2023 (https://nnw.fm/HCzh5).

D-Wave CEO Dr. Alan Baratz said this was a pivotal moment for quantum computing, as the company’s customers are moving full-steam ahead into enterprise-scale adoption and deployment. “SOC 2 compliance is a key part of our production leadership, as it ensures commercial-grade security measures are established and regularly reviewed,” Baratz said. “With customers increasingly incorporating and using our quantum solutions to support daily operations, this level of data protection and security is paramount.”

The completion of the audit comes at a time when business leaders are being held more accountable for how third parties handle private information and need to ensure that the services they use to process data meet federally regulated mandates around security control and the effectiveness of the controls over time. Customers seek trusted vendors that help reduce risk and meet standards like SOC 2 as they consider where to run business-critical applications.

A-LIGN, a technology-enabled security and compliance partner trusted by more than 2,500 global organizations to help mitigate cybersecurity risks, conducted D-Wave’s SOC 2 Type 2 audit. Established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), the SOC 2 examination was designed for organizations of any size, regardless of industry and scope, to ensure the personal assets of potential and existing clients are safe. The SOC 2 reports are recognized internationally and verify that the company’s infrastructure, software, people, data, policies, procedures, and operations have been formally reviewed.

“Congratulations to D-Wave for completing its SOC 2 audit, a widely recognized signal of trust and security,” said Steve Simmons, COO of A-LIGN. “It’s great to work with organizations like D-Wave, who understand the value of expertise in driving an efficient audit and the importance of a high-quality final report.”

The company’s relentless pursuit of practical quantum computing has resulted in its technology being used by some of the world’s most advanced enterprises, including Mastercard, Deloitte, ArcelorMittal, Siemens Healthineers, Unisys, BBVA, NEC Corporation, Pattison Food Group Ltd., DENSO, and Lockheed Martin.

D-Wave owns one of the industry’s largest quantum computer intellectual property portfolios, including more than 210 issued U.S. patents. The company has published more than 225 peer-reviewed papers in leading scientific journals.

D-Wave will perform annual SOC 2 Type 2 assessments in the future, making the latest report available to current and potential clients upon completing a nondisclosure agreement.

Sekur Private Data Ltd. (CSE: SKUR) (OTCQB: SWISF) (FRA: GDT0) Suite Shows Importance Amidst Reports of Latest Microsoft Corporation Cybersecurity Attack

 

• Cyber attacks can cost corporations millions of dollars, endangering critical sensitive information, causing major operational headaches, and affecting hard-won corporate reputations

• Sekur Private Data Ltd. offers consumers, businesses, corporations, and governments, Swiss-hosted solutions for secure communications and secure data management without the use of third-party cloud services

Cybersecurity attacks can cost corporations more than significant amounts of money – they can come with hidden costs like an increase in insurance premiums, operational disruption or destruction, lost value in customer relationships, and more (https://nnw.fm/B5J23). It isn’t just small businesses that are vulnerable to attacks. In recent years, large corporations that devote significant effort in support of security are seeing just how vulnerable they can be to cyberattacks, many of which stem from hackers gaining entry through corporate emails.

Most recently, an email cyberattack was launched against Microsoft, by a group named Midnight Blizzard, a Russian state-sponsored actor also referred to as Nobelium. On January 12, Microsoft detected the attack which began in late November, compromising some of its corporate email accounts (https://nnw.fm/NpauA). The hackers utilized a technique called a “password spray attack,” where a user uses a single common password against multiple accounts on the same application. According to reports, the hackers were targeting email accounts to obtain information about Midnight Blizzard.

For consumers, businesses, corporations, and governments looking to ward off attacks – there is a subscription option available. Sekur Private Data (CSE: SKUR) (OTCQB: SWISF) (FRA: GDT0), a cybersecurity and internet privacy provider of Swiss-hosted solutions for secure communications and secure data management, offers a suite of secure cloud-based storage, disaster recovery, document management, encrypted email, and secure communication tools that do not rely on third-party cloud services.
