Genea Partners with HID to Bring Shopify Best-in-Class Mobile Credentials in Google Wallet

IRVINE, Calif., July 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Genea, the leading provider of cloud-based access control security built on non-proprietary hardware, has partnered with HID to launch mobile credentials in Google Wallet. As part of the release, Shopify, a global commerce company with over 12,000 credentialed users, will give their employees the ability to store digital access credentials in Google Wallet.

Digital credentials — commonly referred to as mobile key cards — empower users, IT and security teams, property managers and more to distribute credentials using just the internet. From an advanced dashboard in Genea Security, administrators can quickly and efficiently distribute credentials to their employees’ smartphones. Once received, these users can access buildings, offices and more without worrying about a physical key card. For Shopify, the Genea integration with Google Wallet makes this process even more secure and convenient.

“The partnership between HID and Genea will immediately benefit commercial security users, like Shopify,” said Sanjit Bardhan, VP of Mobile at HID. “In our partnership with Genea, we’ve already seen the power of mobile access control and this secure wallet experience will empower users across mobile platforms to adopt the ease of mobile credentials.”

Through this partnership, verticals such as enterprises, banking, business services, technology firms, commercial real estate portfolios, schools and healthcare organizations can more quickly add and remove users across multiple facilities.

“We’re a digital-first company with a global remote team, but we gather in person several times a year to connect and tackle tough problems,” said Chris Lafrance, Physical Security Lead at Shopify. “Simplifying access controls during these moments streamlines the experience for our employees and enhances efficient, secure management.” 

From the Genea cloud-based platform, users can replace their plastic key cards with a highly secure mobile credential stored on their Android phones in Google Wallet.

“Genea and Shopify have been leading the way when it comes to how employees interact with the modern workplace,” said Mike Maxsenti, General Manager, Security, at Genea. “Over the past 4 years, Shopify has gone from using an on-prem access control system with physical keys to a 100% cloud-based platform and 100% mobile credentials. However, it was missing one critical component, Google Wallet. The launch of HID’s mobile credentials in Google Wallet unlocks the mobile experience for Shopify employees with instant transaction speed and 100% transaction reliability equal to or better than a physical keycard. We’re so excited to have partnered with Shopify on pioneering this new reality and can’t wait to share it with the rest of the world.”

Life After Hate Launches HateEraser–A Revolutionary Spray Paint Remover to Eliminate Hate-Based Graffiti

HateEraser removes hate-based graffiti in communities and gives first-time offenders a second chance through judge-mandated service

NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, on the International Day for Tolerance and in response to the alarming 600% rise in hate-based graffiti, the Chicago-based nonprofit Life After Hate has launched HateEraser—the first aerosol-gel based formula designed to quickly eradicate hate speech from most surfaces.

Life After Hate is partnering with police stations across the country to distribute HateEraser as part of a new program in which first-time offenders are required to use it during court-mandated community service. This initiative is based on the belief that educating offenders on the damage their actions cause can help prevent them from continuing a life of hate.

“We know that hate-based speech and hate-based graffiti are the first steps to hate-based violence,” remarked Life After Hate Director Pat Riccards. “HateEraser works to change the futures of people motivated by hate and extremist ideologies through education, community service, and helping people alter their path away from a life of continued radical hate.”

The HateEraser formula contains acetone, xylene, and multiple varieties of alcohol and hydrocarbons. “This unique combination of active ingredients,” according to Savannah Technical College Chemistry Professor Ujjvala Bagal, “removes hateful markings as quickly as they were made.”

Street artists do not want to be associated with hate-based graffiti. That’s why they joined in on the HateEraser effort. The cans were designed by street artists from across the country to help inspire change in their communities, with every design telling a different story of acceptance, anti-hate, and empathy. “The hope is that through the HateEraser program, education, action, and strengthening hate crime laws, we can help foster a safe and more accepting community,” said Dina Peck, Chief Creative Officer of The Purpose Group.

“Hate has no place in our art,” Jax, one of the artists on the project, said. “And I’m proud to be a part of something that makes real change in my community.”

Today’s news is the latest glimpse into how Life After Hate has been embracing several innovative solutions for helping individuals disengage from hateful violence and make our communities safer. Last May, the organization unveiled Daily Former Discord, a multi-level public engagement tool. It’s designed to help those currently engaged in violent extremism, those looking to exit such hate groups, and those who have successfully left lives of hate behind reengage in society.

DermRays Black Friday Event Offers Year’s Biggest Savings and Industry Recognition

PLEASANTON, Calif., Nov. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — This Black Friday, DermRays is excited to announce its most significant sale of the year, offering $130 off sitewide from November 16-30th, 2024. With this limited-time discount, customers can experience the brand’s advanced home laser hair removal technology at unbeatable prices. Don’t miss out on this exclusive opportunity to invest in smoother, hair-free skin for less.

In recognition of our commitment to quality and innovation, DermRays V6S model was recently ranked second among the top ten at-home laser hair removal devices globally by Harper’s Bazaar. In their article, “The 10 Best At-Home Laser Hair Removal Devices, According to the Pros“, DermRays stood out as a trusted leader, celebrated for delivering professional-grade results in a convenient, at-home device. For more details, you can explore the full article from Harper’s Bazaar.

It’s essential to clarify the long-term goals of laser hair removal. Technically, it is a process of “laser hair reduction” rather than complete “removal,” as some hair regrowth is normal over time. Even with consistent treatments, new hair from dormant follicles may appear after one to three years. At-home laser devices offer a manageable, convenient skincare routine, giving lasting, visible results in a way that’s easier, faster, and more affordable than traditional methods like waxing or shaving. DermRays aims to set realistic expectations and empower customers with effective, salon-quality solutions at home.

Join us this Black Friday to experience DermRays’ transformative technology at our lowest prices ever, and enjoy smoother, more radiant skin.
