AMEYO Improves Reporting in Contact Center Technology Through Reportika 3.0

GURGAON, India, November 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    Drishti's AMEYO Solution Archives, Reports and Maintains Historical Data With the
Advanced Reportika 3.0

    Contact centers [http://www.drishti-soft.com/contact_center.php ] and enterprises face
a tough challenge maneuvering through the dynamic principles that run businesses today. As
Customer Interaction Management (CIM [http://www.drishti-soft.com ]) gains importance,
more customers are reached and retained. For any contact center technology this means a
load of scattered data which needs to be maintained and accessed.

    (Logo:
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120625/IND10048699 )

    CIM solutions [http://www.drishti-soft.com/solution.php ]like AMEYO try to gauge and
respond to this requirement from the end users. AMEYO 3.0 now powers structured reporting
of historical data through the upgraded version Reportika 3.0. Disparate data was earlier
maintained through a host of tables which led to rough runtime. Reportika 3.0 structures
and collates all data to be represented in a singular table format, allowing backend data
as old as 5 years to be regurgitated. It enables scheduling of specific reports to be
presented at specific time lines of an event both live and historically.

    Speaking about the development CTO at Drishti Nayan Jain opines, "With the data from
those surveyed, contact centers and enterprises keep showing a close margin between data
management and online live reporting preferences, we believe that the next step for a
solution is to bring together both online reporting and effective historical data in a end
user customizable interface. Adequate reporting and mapping of all data from multiple
channels, would eventually lead to a better understanding and engaging of customers based
businesses on their preferred use of CIM technology creating a unique customer experience
for our clients."

    The major advantage that it brings to the contact center processes is the ability to
create customizable reports in 2D and 3D by the end user. The solution runs on Jasper and
is easily scalable to its commercial versions; this enables specific reporting on isolated
incidents giving a more granular view on the overall business process. Debugging on a
single platform is also easily managed and hurdles are avoided. Reportika 3.0 as a feature
of AMEYO aims to make scheduling easier and its mailing capabilities get a new sheen.

    About AMEYO:

    AMEYO is the flagship solution from Drishti for complete CIM. It has been designed to
add value to the businesses and pave way for a structured growth. AMEYO customers enjoy
significant increase in efficiency levels, reduction in operational costs, flexibility,
consistent user experience and a demonstrable ROI.

    About Drishti:

    Drishti offers communications solutions that empower enterprises and contact centers
to dynamically manage business processes, interactions, workforce and service levels on
emerging unified communications (IP telephony, unified messaging, conferencing, presence
management, and application collaboration), SOA (Service Oriented Architecture), and SaaS
(Software as a Service). Cutting-edge technologies from Drishti have been designed to add
value to the businesses and pave way for a structured growth. Their customers enjoy
significant increase in efficiency levels, reduction in operational costs, flexibility,
consistent user experience and a demonstrable ROI.

Cavity Case swallows your wallet, key chain, and iPhone for the holidays

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Possibly the most functional iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 case on the market, Cavity Case allows you to combine your iPhone 5 or 4 with 5 cards, cash, 3 house keys, a car key, your car remote, a telescoping pen, embedded mirror, and a wrist strap.  It also easily breaks down so you can fit it in your pockets (a time machine is planned for version 2). It's launching just before Black Friday, and at $39 it's priced comparably to other "just pretty" cases and is a perfect Christmas gift for the person who has everything, but also loses it all the time. Far from being "just pretty," Cavity Case is attractive, smart, and sleek - the total package. You can check it out here.

To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/cavity-case-swallows-your-wallet-key-chain-and-iphone-for-the-holidays-180583611.html

The more things you have to keep track of, the more likely you are to lose them. Cavity Case prevents even the most hung over of frat boys from looking like a cheapskate when he has to ask his date to pay because he forgot his wallet, and even the least organized young professional from misplacing her keys when she's late for work at that job she's totally quitting anyway as soon as she gets into grad school.

About the Company

The team took over a year to resolve all the issues around holding the components in the iPhone case securely without making it bulky. "We're moving toward a world of consolidation, but there are still some things we can't get away from carrying. We wanted the easiest way to carry those things as possible" said, Ryan Ellis, one of the founders. "Beyond being a first-of-its-kind solution to carrying your essentials, it's interesting because we were able to develop the case while working full time and invested less than $2,000 to get it off the ground," explains the serial entrepreneur. Cavity Case is currently raising $50,000 on the Crowdfunding platform Indiegogo in order to go into production.

IWC Schaffhausen Unveils New Flagship Boutique, Adding a Star to the Beijing Sky

BEIJING, November 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    Yesterday, IWC Schaffhausen celebrated the opening of its Flagship Boutique in
Beijing, China. Friends of the Brand and selected guests were among those in attendance at
the spectacular unveiling ceremony in the Parkview Green Mall, followed by the premiere of
an IWC Portuguese Siderale Scafusia dedicated to Beijing, an evening to remember.

    "Our new Flagship Boutique, now the second in Asia, takes IWC's watchmaking heritage
to a new level," explained IWC CEO Georges Kern. "We are proud to celebrate this occasion
with our distinguished guests and to honor the importance of the Chinese market with an
exclusive timepiece". Parkview Green, a new mall in the heart of Beijing's central
business district, is setting new standards in both form and function with the use of
innovative environmental technologies, enabling, among other achievements, the
establishment of a microclimate beyond the influence of Beijing's extreme seasonal
climates. IWC invited 200 guests to join them at Parkview Green for the boutique's grand
opening event. For the inauguration, guests gathered on the bridge in front of the fully
covered Flagship Boutique to learn more about IWC's milestones of innovation, an
exhibition featuring ten watches from the years 1874 to 2000.

    SPECTACULAR UNVEILING WITH FRIENDS OF THE BRAND

    After the reception on the bridge, Friends of the Brand including actress Tang Wei,
Olympic gold medal winner Chen Yibing, actor Su You Peng, actress Zhu Zhu, movie director
Wang Xiaoshuai, and artist Wang Luyan joined forces with Georges Kern, Benoit de Clerck,
Managing Director of IWC Asia Pacific, and Dennis Lee, Managing Director of IWC China, to
unveil the architectural highlight. "The first IWC Flagship Boutique in mainland China is
not only important for the region, but also adds a new landmark to the company's history,"
explained Georges Kern. The dimensions became even more evident after the curtains had
dropped and guests were able to discover the Flagship Boutique's interior.

    SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE MEETS INNOVATIVE DESIGN

    The architecture of IWC's third Flagship Boutique is just as exceptional as its
surroundings. The facade of the approximately 300 square-meter, bi-level glass cube is an
eye-catcher in its own right. A brainchild of in-house designers and architects, the
signature interior reflects the luxurious ambience of IWC's collection. Fitted out with
sumptuous dark woods and exquisite materials, the Flagship Boutique creates an elegant
atmosphere that invites customers to explore the six fascinating watch families along with
boutique-exclusive editions, and the IWC Collection, only available in Flagship Boutiques,
and made up of innovative, hand-picked items and accessories as exquisite and outstanding
as the watches themselves.

    A NEW STAR IS BORN

    In addition to its one-of-a-kind environment, the IWC Flagship Boutique Beijing -
which is the second Flagship Boutique in Asia - features a world premiere - and not only
for aficionados of haute horlogerie: a room dedicated to a star in IWC's history, the
Portuguese Siderale Scafusia. The pinnacle of mechanical and engineering skills in the art
of astronomical timekeeping today combines over 500 components, from the patented
constant-force tourbillon escapement to the wheel train, culminating in the display of
solar and sidereal time, twilight, sunrise, and sunset, and the constantly changing view
of the visible stars and constellations from the customer's own horizon. To mark the
special occasion, IWC created a Portuguese Siderale Scafusia with a celestial chart on the
case back showing the Forbidden City's horizon. The new Flagship Boutique will be home to
this masterpiece, which reflects IWC's founding principles: creating innovative watches
with technologies ahead of their time, while always respecting sustainability and
heritage. The combination of tradition and innovation deeply rooted in IWC's multifaceted
timepieces has now found a worthy new home in one of the world's most ancient capitals.

Sharing Marketplace yerdle Launches Black Friday with 10,000 Free Items

yerdle is a sharing platform for friends who want to give, get or borrow anything, from blenders to surfboards

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Today yerdle launched its web and mobile platform enabling people to give, get, and loan things among their friends. Asking the question, why shop when you can share?, yerdle.com opened its doors to the public on the biggest shopping day of the year in the U.S., Black Friday, to offer would-be shoppers an opportunity to avoid wasting money and resources on items that can be had for free from their friends. yerdle is opening its doors with 10,000 free items given by friends, for friends.

yerdle's platform, including a website built on Facebook's social graph, an iPhone app and a series of community events, allows friends to easily connect for sharing transactions, taking advantage of a new generation of technology. yerdle also enables new points of connection between friends, neighbors and coworkers, building community one item at a time.

Co-founded by Adam Werbach, former President of the Sierra Club and Founder of Saatchi & Saatchi S, Andy Ruben, former Chief Sustainability Officer and head of Global Strategy at Walmart, and Carl Tashian from the founding team of Zipcar, yerdle was created to offer a sharing marketplace that provides an easy way to reduce consumer waste associated with buying items new. With Americans throwing away an astounding 31 million tons of plastic each year, packaging for new gifts over the holidays will clutter even the neatest home. yerdle's mission is to reduce 20% of the things people buy through sharing, collectively protecting precious ecological resources.

"We built yerdle to create a new way of getting the things you need that doesn't create more waste," said Co-founder Adam Werbach. "If you need a tent, a circular saw, kids soccer cleats, or thousands of other items that you only use sporadically, try sharing through yerdle. Saving money doesn't suck."

U.S. consumers currently spend nearly $50 billion dollars every year on Black Friday alone, according to the National Retail Federation. yerdle is challenging people this holiday season to pledge to join the largest ever Black Friday giving spree, today on November 23rd, to share instead of shop.

"Our closets, trunks and self-storage units form the world's largest warehouse," said Co-Founder Andy Ruben. "According to the Self Storage Association, there has been a 1000% growth in square footage in the past 30 years. We're building software and logistics systems for yerdle that will make it as easier to borrow from a friend as it is to buy something new and store it," said Ruben.

"The holidays should be about spending time with the people you love and giving them gifts," said Werbach. "For anyone who is sick of the crowds and the over-packaging and the cheap plastic toys, we're hoping to provide an authentic way to celebrate the season."

About yerdle

yerdle is a new mobile and web platform that enables people to share things with their friends for free.  People post items that they're willing to give away or loan to their friends, and then friends nab the things they want. Simple. yerdle was founded by Adam Werbach, author of Strategy for Sustainability, Andy Ruben, Former Chief Sustainability Officer at Walmart and Carl Tashian from the founding team of Zipcar.

Data Centre Boost for City's Growing Digital Sector

LEEDS, England, November 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    The Leeds digital sector is forging ahead with a new GBP43 million data centre from
telecoms firm aql, to be built on the city's South Bank.

    aql are working with Leeds and Partners to drive forward the region's digital strategy
and the new centre - the UK's largest independent data centre outside London - could
attract more major players in the industry to join existing names such as Cogent, SSE
Telecom, Level (3), Janet and Fujitsu.

    Already aql is working closely with these operators to connect the city - and current
projects include a 100 Gigabit connection to e-health operator EMIS.

    Plans to roll out high speed broadband are also underway in Leeds and the facility,
known as DC4, will act as a hub of international networks. It will allow local companies
to rent secure IT storage space that minimises the chance of disruption to their business
and will be used to house computer systems and associated components such as
telecommunications and storage systems for aql's public and private sector clients.

    Dr Adam Beaumont, chief executive of aql, said that until the last couple of years,
internet service providers have had to direct Leeds internet traffic via London.

    But this has now changed - due to operators plugging into a hub in one of aql's three
existing city sites DC1, 2 and 3; Leeds can now be independent of technical problems in
the capital, creating a base that would keep traffic local, faster and more reliable.

    "aql's city centre DC2 facility is the home IXLeeds - the only mutual not-for-profit
internet exchange outside of London whose aim is to improve connectivity between operators
for the good of the region," he said.

    "This exchange, formed 2 years ago, provides a hub which allows regional operators to
exchange traffic via the most optimum routes - this not only allows faster access speeds,
but also increases the quality of the connectivity, which is important for services such
as video conferencing and webinars - an important part of e-learning.

    "We're on track to fill our existing sites by mid-2013, so the new DC4 site will allow
expansion room to support the data growth from the IT, media and mobile sectors -
including the huge demands which 4G mobile will place on the regions infrastructure."

    Lurene Joseph, Leeds and Partners chief executive, said: "The data centre anchors the
region's digital sector, sending the strong message to national and international
investors that they can have confidence in our infrastructure.

    "Businesses in Leeds across a wide variety of sectors, from retail and fashion to
medical technology and bio informatics, can utilise faster more reliable connections that
are independent and protected of any problems in London."

    The planning for the major development on part of the former Yorkshire Chemicals land
in Hunslet was approved today by Leeds City Council.

    The facility is designed in collaboration with local architects, Garnett Netherwood,
to sit within a larger scheme by Yorkshire Design Group where the datacentre will share
not only connectivity, but also heat with surrounding businesses and residences.

    The centre comprises two six storey buildings totalling 120,000 square feet of space,
and further allows aql to support huge data rates which will catalyse the growth of
digital businesses in Leeds and supports the city's long term vision to be a world leader
in the sector.

    It will be connected to aql's existing city sites (DC1, 2 and 3) by a private fibre
loop.

    The surrounding area is a mixture of uses including residential, offices and retail,
at Brewery Wharf, Indigo Blu, New Dock, Leeds City Office Park and Crown Point Retail
Park.

    Notes to Editor:

    Any mention of aql should be used in lowercase letters as it is a trademarked name and
device of (aq) ltd.

    aql is a UK regulated telecommunications and datacentre operator based in the centre
of Leeds. Established in 1998, aql specialise in providing a wide range of innovative
wholesale telecommunications solutions including mobile SMS text messaging and IP
telephony.

    DC4 is aql's newest high capacity datacentre, allowing more companies to access the
Internet connectivity which aql has brought to Leeds and Yorkshire as part of existing
initiatives such as IXLeeds (http://www.ixleeds.net). Due for completion in 2014, the
datacentre represents Leeds' latest step on the way to becoming one of the UK's major
technological and media hubs.

Launch of Pickture.com - New Marketplace With an Integrated Social Network

PARIS, November 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    The Pickture team is delighted to announce the long-awaited launch of the network:
http://www.pickture.com! Pickture is a social network that allows you to share the
things you love with other users and find the best prices for products via a browser
plug-in.

    Even before the official launch, Pickture has attracted the attention of a community
of bloggers and companies thanks to its innovative concept. What makes this concept unique
is that it unites a social-network with a shopping platform, in a simple, user-friendly
layout. Users bookmark the products they like via an add-on, organize them into wish-lists
and then share their lists with other users. The product page allows users to not only
"like"/"dislike" and comment on a product but also to purchase it directly from the
retailer's website. In addition, thanks to the personalised suggestions of lists, Pickture
helps users discover new trends and the latest products.

    "Picking" and following

    Pickture is a great place to discover innovative products across numerous categories:
fashion, beauty, home, kids, high-tech, animals, art&culture, travel, office, DIY and
more. Users have the option of adding or "picking" the products uploaded by other users or
to upload products themselves. The "picked" products are then organised into lists that
can be set as 'private' or 'visible' to all users. Furthermore, a user can follow either
all or selected lists created by other users, bloggers and/or brands. Lists can also be
shared on other social networks including Twitter and Facebook.

    The Pickture add-on

    The Pickture add-on is a free, installable extension that is available for all web
browsers at the Google Chrome Webapp store. Once installed, the add-on allows users to add
("pick") products from websites to add to their Pickture profile. The add-on also acts as
a price comparison that displays directly on the product page while browsing.

    The Pickture team is currently developing further functionalities to help users find
and compare the best deals on the products they love, and share their finds with other
users!

Backed by a substantial amount of user testing and research, the release offers an enhanced approach to system usability that is consistent with the experience that teachers and learners have come to expect from current technology.

One of the biggest changes, "My Blackboard," offers users a new, simpler way to access information that's most important to them with a centralized view of updates from all of the courses and organizations they participate in. Using the same feature, instructors can check activity across their courses and quickly engage students as needed.

The release also lets users create profiles and, through an additional update planned for later this year, follow and message other users with similar interests, post to their profile pages, and make their profiles discoverable by people at other institutions using Blackboard Learn. A planned feature called "Spaces" would let students set up their own study and work group pages to collaborate at their own institution and others using Blackboard Learn, without requiring instructor or administrator approval.

"We've taken inspiration from the social aspect of students' lives to create a more dynamic and collaborative learning experience," said Jessica Finnefrock, Senior Vice President of Product Strategy and Product Development for Blackboard Learn. "It's a new way of thinking about the LMS that's less course-centric, and more learner-centric. We've borrowed key elements from social networking but recreated them in a way that's easier to manage and more relevant to the academic environment."

Focus on Student Retention, Instructor Workflow
In addition to a new experience for students, the release also brings a set of new capabilities that ease workflows for educators and improve the ability for educators and institutions to leverage the LMS to support student retention efforts.

At the institutional level, the release includes enterprise surveys that allow clients to collect feedback on courses, departments, institutions and external audiences, and gain greater visibility into performance by disaggregating data and analyzing outcomes by term or by year. Similar survey tools often can cost institutions tens of thousands extra per year and aren't as tightly integrated with the LMS.

For instructors, the release brings enhanced communication through two-way text messaging from Blackboard Connect for Learn?, allowing them to interact more easily with students. The release also includes a completely redesigned content editor that makes it far easier to deploy rich content throughout the course environment, including wide use of video with a planned update to come later this year.

The release also includes a new item analysis feature that helps instructors improve the validity and effectiveness of test questions, and a completely overhauled calendar, planned for release in December, marking a vast improvement over the current version with new capabilities and customization options.

More than 640 institutions participated in the development of the release. More than 1,800 individuals participated in user research, including roughly 600 students and 600 educators, by providing feedback on how they behave and interact with learning technology.

"My Blackboard is my favorite feature," said Mark Radcliffe, Director of Professional Development at blendedschools.net. "The first time I logged in as a teacher and saw that little red "1" in the top right hand corner of the screen, my interest was piqued. I found that without even making a click, Blackboard Learn had told me that one of my students had submitted something. Within two clicks I was grading that assessment. This same speed improvement affects students and is all achieved through a very contemporary look."

eLearning Journal reviewed Blackboard Learn earlier this year in a special practical guide about LMSs. The platform received a "Very Good" rating of 1.4 on a scale of 1.0 to 6.0. The report can be reviewed in both English and German.

Utimaco is the First Manufacturer to Lower Total Cost of Ownership for Hardware Security Modules Via Comprehensive Remote Monitoring

AACHEN, Germany, November 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    Utimaco releases software updates for SafeGuard CryptoServer LAN and SafeGuard
SecurityServer

    Hardware security modules (HSMs) are usually leveraged in data centers, which, for the
most part, are equipped with standard servers. These standard servers are normally
monitored completely through remote monitoring systems. However, the latest HSMs available
on the market either do not support remote monitoring at all or very little. At the same
time, the operator is faced with high personnel costs for administration, which is also
prone to errors due to a lack of automation options.

    With today's software update, the SafeGuard CryptoServer LAN V4, Utimaco is offering
the only 19-inch hardware security module on the market to feature comprehensive and
automatable monitoring functionalities. This lowers the need for personnel and saves
costs, while boosting efficiency at the same time. The CryptoServer LAN V4 not only
supports the reading of numerous system parameters, such as temperature, fan speed, and
status of redundant power supply thanks to the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP),
it also supports spontaneous messages (SNMP traps) when one of these parameters ventures
outside of the defined tolerance range. As a result, operators can virtually rule out
system failures and loss of data. "With the CryptoServer LAN V4, we are lowering the TCO
of our HSMs significantly", explains Andreas Philipp, Head of Sales CrytoServer, adding:
"Security today also means reliability of the leveraged devices in terms of their
availability. Thanks to our latest updates, we are boosting the already high availability
of our products even further."

    Likewise, operators of SafeGuard SecurityServer's new 3.01 software version can expect
a lower TCO thanks to the easier and more secure use of the administration tool. "Ninety
percent of our customers administer the SecurityServer using the graphics-based CAT
administration tool, which was developed particularly for those users who do not
administer HSMs on a daily basis. To make administration more intuitive and thus
cost-effective, we have completely reworked the CAT user interface. The flow of individual
steps is now more intuitive than ever and the interface has been slimmed down", explains
Dieter Bong, Product Manager CryptoServer. The aim was to enable new and inexperienced
users to be able to better handle the interface. The command-line interface csadm can also
boast similar changes - the integrated help system has been reworked and expanded.

LEAD|Turkey Partners with Performance Learning Systems to Introduce Learning Styles Evaluation System for Education

-- System Helps Teachers Increase Student Achievement Through Understanding Learning Styles

BUFFALO, New York, Nov. 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- When teachers assess individual learning styles, it helps students discover how they learn best, which enables them to perform at a higher level. Educators in Turkey now have the ability to discover the learning styles of their students through the Kaleidoscope Profile®, a propriety learning styles evaluation system introduced by LEAD|Turkey, the leading provider of professional development training for educators in Turkey, and developed by Performance Learning Systems (PLS).

"Our goal in bringing the Kaleidoscope Profile to Turkey is to provide what we believe is the best learning styles evaluation system available," said JT Rehill, managing director for LEAD|Turkey. "With knowledge of the various learning styles in their classroom, educators have the power to design interactive lesson plans that will create a motivating and interesting learning environment for students."

Based on more than 80 years of research and proven effective for nearly 20 years, the Kaleidoscope Profile is one of the oldest and most widely-used learning styles inventory systems in the United States, used by more than a half-million students and educators. The system uses a color-coded rubric to categorize 12 individual learning styles and personality temperaments, including sensory, organizational and perceptual preferences.

Once learning styles are identified, teachers can use these factors to adapt learning activities to better accommodate the individual student's needs. Each student will benefit from a supportive learning environment, allowing them to feel special and achieve self-respect while gaining a better understanding of others - a foundational element in implementing differentiated instruction to reach every student.

LEAD|Turkey, in partnership with PLS, Maya School and Ozyegin University, hosted two one-day events for educators on Saturday, Nov. 17 in Istanbul, and Sunday, Nov. 18 in Ankara, in conjunction with the launch. More than 400 educators attended both events, where they received a free Kaleidoscope Profile Learning Styles report.

"Both events were a success in introducing this tool to educators," said Stephen Barkley, author, co-creator of the Kaleidoscope Profile and executive vice president of PLS. "It was great to see the positive response from attendees, who are extremely excited to have access to this system that will help them boost student achievement in their classrooms."

AVG Releases Five Tips for Cyber Monday

AMSTERDAM and SAN FRANCISCO, November 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

          As consumers gear up to spend more than a billion dollars in a single day,

             AVG offers advice on how to keep that cash out of thieves' hands

    AVG Technologies (NYSE: AVG), the provider of Internet and mobile security to 143
million active users, today announces five tips to help consumers ensure secure online
shopping - just in time for Cyber Monday. Whether from desktops, laptops, tablets or
smartphones, these AVG tips help consumers make purchases with confidence that personal
data remain inaccessible to hackers and data thieves.

    "When you get down to it, it's the potential exposure of financial information and
identity theft that's on everyone's minds this time of year," said JR Smith, CEO of AVG
Technologies. "If you have security software on your computer or mobile device it's
relatively safe to shop online this holiday season, especially if you transact
predominantly with big-brand retailers. However, there are numerous very straightforward
things you can do to protect your transactions as well as secure your identity and credit
card information while shopping online."

    AVG offers consumers the following tips to demystify the practice of secure online
shopping:

       
        1) Use only one card for all online purchases. Ensure it's one with a very
          low monthly balance of $500 or less and that has fraud protection. In addition, also
          monitor your statements on a regular basis, monthly at a minimum.
        2) Avoid making purchases or transmitting info over public Wi-Fi networks, as
          they can offer hackers easy access to data
        3) Equip mobile devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones with access
          passwords and remote locking or wiping capabilities in the event they are lost or
          stolen
        4) Shop only from trusted brand-name merchants who use SSL protocol
        5) Install a simple-to-use, 100% free but highly effective security solution
          such as AVG Internet Security 2013 for your computer or AVG Mobilation for your
          smartphone.

    According to ComScore, in 2011 consumers spent $1.25 billion dollars for online
purchases on Cyber Monday, setting an all time record. In 2012, the National Retail
Federation projects that amount will increase by 12%. According to the 2012 Identity Fraud
Survey Report (Javelin Strategy & Research), 11.1 million American adults were victims of
identity theft in 2010. On average a victim of identity theft spends 330 hours (or 41
eight hour working days) resolving the problem.

New Record for Eutelsat's KA-SAT Satellite: Datagroup Equips Over 12,600 Voting Booths in the Ukraine With Satellite Broadband

PARIS, November 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    During the Ukraine's parliamentary elections of October 28, the KA-SAT satellite of
Eutelsat Communications (Euronext Paris: ETL) demonstrated its unique capacity to deliver
massive data bandwidth to multiple sites, allowing real time video monitoring of over
12,600 polling stations.

    During election day and the following night, KA-SAT managed 25,000 simultaneous
videostreams, representing total throughput of 2.5Gbps. This is the equivalent of a fully
loaded medium-capacity satellite but only a fraction of the total 90Gbps available via
KA-SAT.

    Datagroup, a leading service provider for data communications and a longstanding
Eutelsat partner selected KA-SAT to ensure that one in three polling stations in the
Ukraine was able to transmit webcam recordings on behalf of the Ukraine's Central Election
Commission. Following this experience, Datagroup announced today in Kiev that it will use
KA-SAT to launch consumer broadband services across the Ukraine from 1 December.

    Over a record four weeks leading up to the election, more than 12,600 KA-SAT terminals
were deployed by Datagroup and activated on the KA-SAT network at an average pace of 500
terminals a day. This significant effort was achieved thanks to the easy installation of
KA-SAT terminals that are already used by thousands of consumers across Europe for the
Tooway broadband service. The network performance during the elections outperformed all
Datagroup's expectations, enabling observers to monitor video streams on the Internet in
real time.

    Alexandre Danchenko, CEO of Datagroup said: "Our experience with KA-SAT and Eutelsat
during the elections enabled us to assess the exceptional performance, reliability and
scalability of the KA-SAT infrastructure. We are delighted to move forward with the launch
of consumer satellite broadband services which put the modernisation of our country's
infrastructure into a new perspective by enabling users in remote regions to immediately
benefit from high-speed Internet."

    Jean-Francois Fenech, CEO of Skylogic, Eutelsat's broadband affiliate, commented:
"This massive and fast deployment could only be efficiently achieved using the KA-SAT
platform. It highlights how our technology is meeting and even surpassing expectations,
and underlines how Eutelsat's decision to pursue a High Throughput Satellite model is
fully in line with the broadband expectations of today's users. Our collaboration with
Datagroup also paves the way for bridging the digital divide in the Ukraine, enabling
users to benefit from broadband in the many locations neglected by other technologies."

DigitalRoute Announces Launch of DRLabs and Receives Financing From VINNOVA

STOCKHOLM, November 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    New hub to bring innovation off the drawing board and build a culture of creativity
within leading data company

    Digital Route AB, a leading provider of mediation and data integration solutions for
the communications industry, has announced both that it has won a major funding award from
VINNOVA [http://www.vinnova.se/en ], the Swedish government innovation agency, and the
creation of DRLabs. DRLabs will proactively harness the company's creative engine and
market knowledge by formalizing the process through which new ideas are turned into
innovations that can impact markets.

    DRLabs will provide an exciting environment in which DigitalRoute's key resources, its
people, can put their ideas to work. A step before formal product development, prototypes
can be built and road-tested and preliminary research undertaken. As such, DRLabs will act
an in-house incubator for nascent ideas. For the DigitalRoute community of employees,
partners and customers this is an exciting advancement. It will foster a spirit of
co-operation and innovation across those working with MediationZone(R), the DigitalRoute
platform, and help ensure that innovation is customer validated from the outset.

    A number of initiatives are already in progress within DRLabs. Notable among them is
DaggerEngine, DigitalRoute's mediation integration Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS) project.
This aims to provide automated decisioning solutions that will become available to
customers who previously would not have been able to access advanced MediationZone
technology through more traditional delivery mechanisms.

    Funding for DRLabs comes in part from a recently announced grant awarded by VINNOVA -
the Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems. VINNOVA's mission is to strengthen
Sweden's innovativeness, aiding sustainable growth and benefiting society. 58 different
projects in several areas recently won awards the purpose of which was to encourage small
and medium sized Swedish companies to increase their competitiveness by investing in
research and development. DigitalRoute received 3.5m SEK, the largest IT industry award
given.

    Commented Jan Karlsson, Chief Executive Officer, DigitalRoute: "DigitalRoute was
founded twelve years ago based on a creative vision that the area of telecoms billing
mediation could be re-invented by the application of new technologies. Today
MediationZone, which now has over 260 customers around the globe, attests to what can be
achieved if creativity is given the opportunity to be disruptive."

    Karlsson continued, "DRLabs is building on and extending this DNA of innovation that
sits at the core of DigitalRoute. For our community, the prospect of what might be
achieved, as evidenced by the first wave of projects now being undertaken, is truly
exciting."
