Amazon Web Services

New York – October 11, 2026 -- CLEAR (NYSE: YOU) has integrated its CLEAR1 secure identity platform with Amazon Web Services' Amazon Connect, allowing contact centers to verify a caller's identity before or during a support interaction.

The integration targets fraud, impersonation and high-friction verification, which the company identifies as weak points in contact center support. Organizations can place identity checks earlier in the support journey, before the customer speaks with an agent.

Callers verify via SMS link before reaching an agent

When a customer calls a support center powered by Amazon Connect, they can choose to verify through CLEAR. Customers who opt in receive a secure SMS link and complete verification on their phone. The call is then routed to an agent, who sees the verification result in real time.

Across DoiT's more than 4,000 customers, AI expenditure has outpaced the tools available to measure returns, pushing finance and engineering leaders to justify which models, features and customers are driving cost -- and whether each pays off.

Dallas – – September 29, 2026 -- TrendAI, the enterprise AI security unit of Trend Micro (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), has entered private preview with TrendAI Vision One Autonomous Vulnerability Discovery, a service that pairs an agentic AI engine with validation from the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI), described as the world's largest vendor-agnostic bug bounty program.

Engine outperforms rivals on CyberGym leaderboard

The service runs on an agentic system code-named AESIR, built primarily on Anthropic models, and deployed and operated on Amazon Bedrock from Amazon Web Services. When tested against the CyberGym benchmarking framework, the engine scored higher than both single-model and other agentic systems on the leaderboard. TrendAI states internal benchmarking shows its models identify more true-positive vulnerabilities with fewer false positives than leading vulnerability scanning and static analysis tools.

Hub pairs New Jersey's largest health system with AWS cloud and AI tools

The facility combines Rutgers' academic and research capacity, RWJBarnabas Health's clinical reach as New Jersey's largest academic health system, and AWS cloud and artificial intelligence infrastructure to address health care challenges spanning the classroom and hospital bedside.

New York – September 17, 2026 -- Zip Security has joined Project QuiltWorks, the CrowdStrike-led coalition defending organizations against frontier AI-driven cyber risk, extending enterprise-grade protection to small and mid-sized businesses that lack dedicated security teams.

Frontier AI models have cut attack costs while defense costs stay flat for SMBs

Frontier AI has changed the economics of cyber risk, giving attackers tools to discover software vulnerabilities that earlier reviews missed. Small and mid-sized businesses now face sophisticated threats without the resources enterprises use to counter them, according to the companies.

Orem, Utah – September 16, 2026 -- Agilix Labs said its BusyBee AI assistant has now graded 6 million K-12 student submissions, returning roughly 150,000 hours of grading time to teachers, with monthly volume already running near 1 million submissions and a seventh million expected within weeks.

Written feedback rates nearly triple when BusyBee assists grading

Across more than 2.5 million submissions processed on the Buzz platform over the past two weeks, only 29% of assignments graded without BusyBee received a written comment from teachers. Of those graded with BusyBee's assistance, 84% received one. Agilix framed the gap as evidence that teachers already want to give feedback on every submission but lack the time to do so manually.
