VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — USA News Group – Cybersecurity is an ever-evolving battle for enterprises, governments, and even hackers. The need for new defenses is reaching the highest levels, as federal officials are acknowledging the potential for generative artificial intelligence (AI) to help better identify cyber threats, including data scientists from the National Institute of Health (NIH) and its parent agency, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) exploring the key benefits of this tech for analyzing vast data sets. At the local government level too, officials are considering AI for cybersecurity, marking a shift in how cybersecurity policies are carried out. But it’s clear that most institutions aren’t equipped to develop the tech necessary, nor the resources to keep up with the evolving abilities of the world’s hackers, bringing attention to the minds working behind the scenes to make data analysis safer and more effective. The market is constantly being updated by these innovators, with recent developments coming from groups such as Avant Technologies Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI), Stryker Corporation (NYSE: SYK), Okta, Inc. (NASDAQ: OKTA), CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRWD), and Tenable Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TENB).

Emerging AI-focused tech company Avant Technologies Inc. (OTCQB: AVAI) has been actively developing solutions in AI infrastructure. As part of their strategies, Avant has been seriously exploring additional technologies in the biotechnology and healthcare sectors, recently unveiling AI-powered healthcare infrastructure to deliver intelligent healthcare solutions.

More recently, Avant has stepped up this potential offering, by announcing they’ll be implementing robust cybersecurity measures for their AI-driven healthcare solutions. As per the announcement, Avant is building comprehensive cybersecurity measures into the very foundation of its intelligent solutions, ensuring the highest protection for sensitive patient information.

This issue is topical, as earlier this year US President Joe Biden signed an executive order on safe, secure, and trustworthy AI, that emphasized the need to establish rigorous security standards, which brought an impact on healthcare cybersecurity.

Given Avant’s foundational experience in AI, the company plans to assess the industry’s leading frameworks to integrate with its healthcare AI technology. The plan is to prioritize patient data security throughout the entire development lifecycle by employing a multi-layered cybersecurity approach and protecting data at rest and in transit, while also strictly adhering to  HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) regulations.

“We are committed to enhancing our AI-driven application with state-of-the-art cybersecurity measures to protect our patient’s privacy,” said Danny Rittman, Chief Information Officer of Avant. “Our AI-driven healthcare solutions are developed to monitor and enhance our patient’s health, and it is our top priority to ensure the highest data security and privacy standards for our AI healthcare applications.  In addition to our advanced cyber measures, we intend to assess third party, industry-standard security platforms to establish a multi-layered, robust cybersecurity system.”

At its foundational level, Avant’s cybersecurity framework is made up of a ZTA (Zero Trust Architecture) and a multi-layer approach to protect sensitive patient data, ensuring the integrity of its AI-driven healthcare solutions. Their system facilitates robust data security measures, including encryption, access controls, and MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication).

Avant secures its AI Models through advanced access control, data minimization, and federated learning.  A secure network architecture, microsegmentation, vulnerability management, and endpoint protection form the infrastructure and network security foundation. Avant also plans to evaluate industry-leading cybersecurity platforms to strengthen its security posture, while committing to continuous monitoring and improvement on its security measures through real-time threat detection, incident response planning, and regular security audits.

The goal for Avant is to advance healthcare through AI, while setting a new industry data security and privacy standard. Avant plans to continue investing in cybersecurity measures to strengthen its solutions and maintain the trust of both healthcare providers and patients.

Also dealing in the healthcare field is Stryker Corporation (NYSE: SYK), a global leader in medical technologies, which recently announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire care.ai, a privately held company specializing in delivering AI-assisted virtual care workflows, smart room technology, and ambient intelligence solutions. The acquisition aligns with Stryker’s growing healthcare IT offering and its wirelessly connected medical device portfolio.

Coming out of a near-catastrophic global technology outage, CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRWD) is moving forward to learn from the experience and prevent future occurrences. In particular, a somewhat overreliance on AI in cybersecurity was questioned in the aftermath. However, CrowdStrike continues to have faith in its multi-agent AI architecture that it can help to enhance analyst efficiency and tackle cyber security challenges.

Recently, CrowdStrike released its 2024 CrowdStrike Threat Hunting Report, which sounded the alarm that Nation-States can exploit legitimate credentials to pose as insiders. Key findings in the report included naming North Korea-Nexus Adversaries as a legitimate threat of posing as US employees, hands-on-keyboard intrusions increased 55% (with an increase of 75% in healthcare), and cloud-conscious adversaries targeting the control plane.

“In tracking nearly 250 adversaries this past year, a central theme emerged—threat actors are increasingly engaging in interactive intrusions and employing cross-domain techniques to evade detection and achieve their objectives,” said Adam Meyers, Head of Counter Adversary Operations at CrowdStrike. “Our comprehensive, human-led threat hunting directly informs the algorithms that power the AI-native Falcon platform, ensuring that we stay ahead of these evolving threats and continue to deliver the industry’s most effective cybersecurity solutions.”

Exposure management company Tenable Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TENB) was recently recognized as the Top Performer in Cloud Security by CRN in its 2024 Annual Report Card. Prior to this recognition, Tenable unveiled its industry-leading vulnerability intelligence data and response capabilities to expose and close priority threats that drive up risk. Delivered over two offerings called Vulnerability Intelligence, and Exposure Response, Tenable is delivering two powerful context-driven prioritization and response features available now in its products Tenable Vulnerability Management, Tenable One, and Tenable Cloud Security.

“Without threat context and research insights, every vulnerability is a priority, creating a high-stress, low efficiency whack-a-mole scenario for security teams,” said Gavin Millard, VP of product management for Vulnerability Management for Tenable. “Tenable is unleashing more than two decades of carefully curated exposure data to enable security teams to focus on the risk that matters most to their organization and communicate succinctly to stakeholders. The enriched intelligence and contextualization take prioritization and response to a new level, providing security teams with the critical data needed to identify and reduce risk.”

CATL Launches the Bedrock Chassis That Withstands 120 km/h Impact Without Catching Fire or Exploding

Published

on

By

NINGDE, China, Dec. 24, 2024 /CNW/ — On December 24th, CATL officially launched the CATL Bedrock Chassis, the world’s first ultra-safe skateboard chassis. With its outstanding performance of withstanding 120 km/h frontal impact without catching fire or exploding, CATL’s Bedrock Chassis sets a new standard for intelligent chassis safety, providing comprehensive protection across all scenarios and speed ranges.

Lead the industry with the most stringent safety tests

With the battery-centered design, CATL’s Bedrock Chassis utilizes Cell-to-Chassis integration technology, which directly integrates the battery cells into the chassis, allowing for a shared structural design between them. And based on the decoupling of the chassis from the upper body, the Bedrock Chassis is capable of absorbing 85% of the vehicle’s collision energy (compared to around 60% absorbed by traditional chassis).

Through various technological breakthroughs, the Bedrock Chassis successfully passed the world’s first “highest speed + strongest impact” dual extreme safety test. This achievement enables the chassis to pass the 120 km/h frontal central pole impact test without catching fire, exploding or thermal runway, redefining the benchmark for safety in the industry.

Currently, the speed for frontal impact safety test in the commonly used C-NCAP (China New Car Assessment Program) is 56km/h, which, when experiencing a frontal impact at this speed, generates collision energy equivalent to falling from 12-meter-high building. In comparison, a frontal impact at 120km/h is equivalent to falling from a 56-meter-high building, generating a collision energy 4.6 times that of collision at 56km/h.

In more stringent frontal pole crash tests, which simulate crashes with non-standard objects such as power poles, large trees, or animals, the impact area is only 1/6 of that in a full-width frontal impact, exponentially increasing impact pressure. At a speed of 120km/h, the impact pressure on the chassis per unit area in a frontal central pole impact is 21 times that of the 56 km/h full-width frontal impact in C-NCAP testing.

Due to the extremely high crash speed and intensity, there has been no previous instance of any new energy vehicle daring to challenge a 120km/h frontal pole impact test. With this extreme challenge, CATL’s Bedrock Chassis has blazed a fresh trail for the industry.

Open the era of ultra-safe transportation through three technological breakthroughs

CATL’s Bedrock Chassis has delved deep into the realm of structure and material innovation, leveraging three technological breakthroughs to provide unparalleled protection in all scenarios and speed ranges, ensuring rock-solid safety for the entire vehicle.

The CATL Bedrock Chassis introduces a revolutionary three-dimensional biomimetic tortoise shell structure, where the body and energy unit framework are integrated, deeply coupled to provide the energy unit with indestructible protection. And its aircraft carrier-grade arresting structure disperses impact forces across multiple pathways during a crash, gradually decelerating the vehicle and significantly reducing the depth and speed at which obstacles intrude the cabin. The utilization of submarine-grade hot-formed steel with a strength of 2000MPa, aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with a strength of 600MPa, and multiple barrier structures further enhance the chassis’ rigidity, making it virtually impervious.

Moreover, the CATL Bedrock Chassis incorporates an ultra-safe battery cell design, NP technology, and a high-ductility energy-absorbing insulation film, leading the industry in a groundbreaking manner. In terms of high-voltage disconnection, it achieves instantaneous disconnection of high voltage circuit within 0.01 seconds of impact and completes the discharge of residual high-voltage energy in the vehicle within 0.2 seconds, setting a new industry record.

Notably, the battery cells have undergone highly demanding tests, including high-speed sled impact tests at 60 km/h, 90-degree bending tests, and breakthrough sawing tests, the battery did not catch fire or explode across all three tests. These tests, all industry-firsts by CATL, have elevated the safety standards of battery cells to new heights.

Unlocking the era of customization, and activating a trillion-yuan market

The launch of the Bedrock Chassis not only redefines the standard for intelligent chassis safety but also activates a trillion-yuan market. It greatly accelerates the shift towards modular, personalized, and intelligent automotive design.

Addressing the common pain points of high investment, long development cycles, and accelerated product iteration in the industry, the Bedrock Chassis incorporates three core characteristics: internal integration, decoupling of the chassis from the upper body, and external openness. With a rich array of toolkits and solution packages, it offers a scalable software and hardware architecture and standardized interfaces, enabling flexible configurations for different vehicle models and scenarios. This allows the realization of a “one chassis architecture, multiple vehicle models” concept and significantly improves development efficiency and shortens the R&D cycle. The time required for mass production of a vehicle is reduced from the traditional 36 months or longer to 12 to 18 months.

Furthermore, the Bedrock Chassis breaks the limits of safety and modeling, and expands design flexibility through the design of decoupling of the chassis from the upper body. The fourth-generation Cell-to-Chassis (CTC) technology and inverted battery cell technology enhance the utilization of chassis space while reducing the risk of chassis scraping. Additionally, in terms of intelligence, the chassis supports mechanical decoupling, software decoupling and EE decoupling, enabling L3 to L4 intelligent driving capabilities. It provides high adaptability interfaces and promotes collaborative intelligent applications.

At the launch ceremony, AVATR, the first automaker to use Bedrock Chassis, and CAIT-SH, CATL’s skateboard chassis arm, signed an agreement to deepen cooperation on CATL’s Bedrock Chassis to create a safer, higher-quality travel experience for users.

Safety is a never-ending journey. In the future, CATL will continue to break technological barriers through continuous innovation, and work with partners to build a safe ecosystem for EV batteries and vehicles, safeguarding the safety of users.
