  • New Netskope App for ServiceNow modernizes threat and data protection workflows

    New Netskope App for ServiceNow modernizes threat and data protection workflows

    Mumbai – Netskope, a leader in Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), has announced the release of the Netskope App for ServiceNow, further extending the collaboration between the two companies. Designed to simplify threat and data protection workflows, the app leverages advanced features such as Netskope real-time user coaching to help security operations (SecOps) and incident response (IR) to keep users productive and the business resilient when responding to incidents and alerts.

    Today, most legacy secure web gateways limit how IT and security teams can effectively respond to a user request or a threat incident by only allowing admins a binary choice to allow or block access based on a web destination. By leveraging Netskope’s patented capabilities to understand and differentiate the context around user engagement with the internet, the Netskope App for ServiceNow facilitates a number of workflows to automatically create, manage, and respond to events and incidents. As a result, users remain engaged and productive with the business tools they would otherwise be blocked from using, all while reducing the friction between IT departments and the volume of tickets generated by users. The app also supports predefined and ad hoc workflows, giving admins multiple outcomes to choose from, including limited uploads, limited downloads, real-time user coaching, and justification, in addition to allowing and blocking access.

    “This latest integration between Netskope and ServiceNow enables customers to go beyond the limitations of solely ‘block’ or ‘allow’ options and respond with a wide variety of continuously updated zero trust outcomes,” said David Willis, Vice President of Technology Alliances, Netskope. “The Netskope App for ServiceNow helps admins manage a large number of findings ranging from ‘patient zero’ threats or a widespread data protection event using Netskope’s context rich data directly from the ServiceNow dashboard. It puts the necessary details into the IT and SecOps admins’ hands to enforce and enable users based on correlated and investigated findings in ServiceNow.”

    With the new Netskope App for ServiceNow administrators can now:

    . Investigate and reduce time-to-respond to incidents and alerts through ticketing automation and enrichment informed by Netskope

    . Manage threats or data protection events with Netskope data directly from the ServiceNow dashboard, thereby reducing alert fatigue and operational costs from time spent toggling between multiple interfaces

    . Provide user coaching in real time over email while handling IT service management for any user triggering any type of alert, providing more choices for outcomes, beyond simple allow or block decisions

    . Provide near real-time assessment of malware and automatically create a multi-step correlation to highlight and identify ‘patient zero’ during an attack

    . Offer immediate lookups for SaaS application data protection posture for over 80,000 applications

    “This is an exciting development in our longstanding partnership with Netskope and represents a milestone in our shared mission to automate data privacy and security response workflows for our customers,” said ServiceNow Director of Product Management, Security Incident Response Hareesh Namavarapu. “With Netskope’s insights seamlessly integrated into the Now Platform, our customers can orchestrate powerful security workflows and investigate alerts with greater efficiency for their organization.”

This commitment to supporting Multiwoven as an open-source project signifies AI Squared’s recognition of the critical role that open-source plays in driving technological innovation.  

    The Multiwoven team joins AI Squared as part of the acquisition, with Multiwoven’s founders assuming leadership roles at the company. Sujoy Golan will now serve as AI Squared’s chief product officer, Nagendra Dhanakeerthi will serve as chief technology officer, and Subin Thattaparambil will serve as SVP of Engineering.  

    “From my experiences as a data-science executive at the National Security Agency and as an early employee at Databricks, I recognize and respect the critical role that the open-source community plays in fueling innovation,” said AI Squared’s founder and CEO Benjamin Harvey, Ph.D.. “Now as a singular organization, AI Squared and Multiwoven will continue to lead the way in open-source rETL, while simultaneously bringing critical data-movement functionality to our customers.”

  • Trackier soars in FY 2023: 25 per cent employee growth, 500 new clients

    Trackier soars in FY 2023: 25 per cent employee growth, 500 new clients

    Mumbai: 2023, the year where B2B startups struggled to maintain a steady pace in business, an India-based bootstrapped startup Trackier summed up financial year 2023 with 25 per cent rise in headcount growth, and registered 500 new clients including D2C brands, ad networks and agencies. In November 2023, the company clocked its seven years with an offsite celebration in Hanoi, Vietnam.

    Marking the beginning of FY 2024, the company announced several announcements including its headcount doubling since its inception in 2016. This is a remarkable achievement for a non-funded company, especially during times like this, with volatile market conditions. Trackier was able to unlock this achievement owing to its core ideology centered around customer satisfaction, which is reflected in the company’s unparalleled customer support and its feature-on-request model which is a novelty in the B2B startup landscape. 

    What’s Trackier’s secret to achieving year-over-year growth since 2016?

    It all comes down to the fact that Trackier has figured out the secret sauce of B2B success, and that is making their customer a ‘king’. For the past seven years, the company has worked relentlessly towards offering top-notch experience to their customers with a technology-powered platform that is intuitive, user-friendly, and at the same time efficient.

    Also, Trackier’s strong network with technology providers helps them ensure seamless integration with their clients’ existing marketing tools, maximizing the effectiveness of their affiliate programs.

    Currently, Trackier is integrated with over 150 third-party platforms via API, including Salesforce, Shopify, Flipkart, WooCommerce, Rakuten, MoEngage, and many more.

    “It’s impossible to single out one or two individuals for this success.  The entire Trackier team has played a vital role in our growth, just as every cog in a machine ensures its smooth operation. 2023 hasn’t been a straight line for us – we saw our fair share of challenges. Of course, we weren’t untouched by the economic environment, but I believe the time was kind to us. I am utterly grateful to our team, my friends and partners Udit Verma, Hemant Mann and Mukul Kaushik, for standing together no matter how rocky the road ahead is,” said Trackier CEO & co-founder Faizan Ayubi.

    What’s more at Trackier?

    Recently, Trackier elevated Mukul Kaushik, from VP-sales to chief Revenue Officer, on account of his exceptional performance in the fiscal year. Under his leadership, the company grew five times in terms of revenue and expanded its client base across performance marketing, mobile marketing, and the iGaming product directory. He also expanded Trackier’s footprints in Brazil, Africa, and Nigeria with the help of local resources and set up two new offshore entities in the UAE and Singapore under his leadership.

    On the product side of things, the company is all set to soft launch its novel iGaming platform for iGaming brands and operators in the European and American markets. This fiscal year, Trackier is also working towards expanding its market hold as an MMP provider in the South East Asian region.

Hanooman has been developed by SML India in partnership with 3AI Holding. The platform aims to reach 200 million users within its first year of launch.

    As part of the launch, SML India announced its partnership with leading technology stalwarts and innovators like HP, NASSCOM, and Yotta. Through the partnership, Yotta will provide GPU cloud infrastructure to bolster SML India’s operations. Additionally, SML India’s partnership with NASSCOM is aimed at several initiatives, like supporting AI startups, fostering fintech innovation, engaging with 3000 colleges, and participating in research programmes.  The company has also collaborated with the Government of Telangana and the Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances (DARPG), to facilitate seamless translation between English and Telugu, enhancing accessibility and understanding of crucial documents like court orders. These strategic partnerships with leading tech players and government bodies signify a monumental leap forward in India’s GenAI landscape, and underscoring Hanooman’s capabilities and commitment to delivering innovative solutions to businesses and individuals alike. The 12 Indian languages that the web and app are currently available in include Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Kannada, Odia, Punjabi, Assamese, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Sindhi. Additionally, Hanooman will support a host of global languages, including English, Spanish, Italian, German, Japanese, Korean, and 80 other languages worldwide.

    Powered by 3AI Holding’s cutting-edge technology, it combines specialised LLMs built with a dynamic integration synthesis matrix to deliver clear, adaptive insights and transform complex data into actionable intelligence effortlessly.

Hanooman embodies this commitment of democratising access to cutting-edge technology to every Indian. What sets Hanooman apart is that it is built in India, built for India, and stored in India (data). Through our strategic partnership with SML India, we strive to cater to a diverse spectrum of users, making AI inclusive and available to everyone, regardless of their ethnicity or location. We strongly believe that by empowering individuals with GenAI, we can unlock unprecedented opportunities for innovation, thereby contributing to the growth of the country.”

With its launch, we aim to impact the lives of 200 million users within the first year alone. 80 % of Indians can’t use English, hence, Hanooman’s capabilities to support Indian languages will bring Gen AI to the reach of everyone in India and open massive opportunities for companies and startups bringing Gen AI products to the market.

    We envision Hanooman not only as a technological marvel but also as a catalyst for societal change. We see Hanooman as a cornerstone of India’s economic future, unlocking the vast potential of GenAI to drive innovation, productivity, and prosperity across various sectors.”
