Nozomi Networks OT and IoT visibility, threat detection and risk management capabilities now part of Advens Managed Security Services offered to customers countries across EuropeParis Olympics joins a growing list of customers benefiting from this MSSP partnership

SAN FRANCISCO and PARIS, Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Nozomi Networks Inc., the leader in OT and IoT security, and Advens today announced they have partnered to address growing demand in France and across Europe for managed security services and solutions that are designed to holistically satisfy the unique OT and IoT cybersecurity requirements of critical infrastructure and cyber-physical system environments. Advens offers Nozomi Networks’ advanced ANSSI-certified solutions for OT and IoT visibility, network monitoring, threat detection and risk management to customers of its Managed SOC and security services. Advens also resells standalone solutions from Nozomi Networks to customers who manage their security programs in house.

“With Nozomi Networks, our public service, healthcare and industry 4.0 customers, most recently including The Paris 2024 Olympics, benefit from access to the industry’s most trusted OT and IoT monitoring and threat detection, fully supported by Advens experts and Managed Services,” said Stephane Potier, Head of OT & IoT Cyber Security at Advens. “We’re pleased to formalize a very successful relationship that started several years ago. Partnered with Nozomi, we can deliver deep OT and IoT cybersecurity expertise, using the advanced solutions that our customers need.”

Earlier this year Advens and Nozomi Networks worked together to ensure the Paris 2024 Olympics games ran without disruption and were safe for cyber-related attacks or outages. The Advens-Nozomi team of cybersecurity experts had just under six months to successfully design, deploy, test and manage a cybersecurity program to safeguard the water systems, event venues, roadways, housing facilities and other critical infrastructure supporting the Olympics. 

“Without a doubt, the Nozomi platform played a critical role in helping protect the Paris Olympics from at least 3 serious cyberattacks,” Potier said. “The extremely high-level of cybersecurity we were able to execute flawlessly for the Olympics is just one example of the high-quality defense we can provide industrial and critical infrastructure customers through our partnership with Nozomi.”

“It’s a pleasure to work with a highly skilled team of cybersecurity professionals at Advens,” said Nozomi Networks Head of Partner Sales, Cade Stephens. “Both companies share a commitment to excellence which has earned us both a solid reputation in Europe and around the world. We firmly believe this partnership accelerates our joint mission to help protect the critical infrastructure organizations that all of us rely on to support our daily lives and businesses. We look forward to working together to improve the way these organizations are secured.”

Recognized as the market leader in OT and IoT security, Nozomi Networks is valued for superior operational visibility, advanced OT and IoT threat detection and strength across deployments. Nozomi Networks solutions support more than 115 million devices in thousands of installations across energy, manufacturing, mining, transportation, utilities, building automation, smart cities and critical infrastructure. Launched in August 2021, Nozomi Networks’ MSSP Partner Program is the industry’s first complete program for OT and IoT managed security services. The program fully equips MSSPs with Nozomi Networks’ award-winning OT and IoT cybersecurity solutions, expertise and selling resources. Customers gain the flexibility and maximum value they need when it comes to strengthening their OT and IoT security postures while balancing resource requirements.

As healthcare, public service, industry 4.0 and other critical infrastructure organizations increase their dependency on digital technology, they must also evolve their defenses to address a much larger exposure of their resources to ever-more professional cyberattacks. Advens is continuously investing in secure offerings, and partnerships that will help customers maintain the quality, safety, security, reliability and sustainability of their products and services that they’ve come to rely on from Advens.

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — At CES 2025, MLVision has officially launched its groundbreaking MLVision M5, setting a new global standard for wearable technology. Weighing a mere 25.8 grams, the MLVision M5 is the world’s lightest AI-powered AR glasses. The device combines cutting-edge artificial intelligence, precision engineering, and a commitment to privacy and accessibility.

“MLVision M5 is more than just a wearable device; it represents a significant breakthrough in both weight and product design,” said CEO Zhaoen Dai. “Our goal is to create smart AR glasses that feel effortless to wear, leveraging cutting-edge AR display technology and advanced AI models to genuinely help users work and live more efficiently and conveniently.”

Crafted with aviation-grade titanium and ultra-lightweight floating plastic, this device achieves an unprecedented balance between durability and comfort. Weighing only 25.8g, 40% less than traditional AR glasses, it ensures an effortless, all-day wearing experience that feels almost weightless. The ergonomic design caters to users’ needs, making it a perfect companion for both work and leisure.

This device introduces an industry-first modular design, setting a new benchmark for adaptability in AR glasses. This innovation allows users to seamlessly transition between an all-in-one configuration and a clip-on style, accommodating diverse preferences and use cases. For nearsighted users, the M5 eliminates the need for custom prescription lenses—a common limitation in traditional AR glasses. Instead, it can be conveniently clipped onto existing prescription glasses, offering unmatched practicality and cost savings. This thoughtful modularity not only enhances accessibility but also positions the MLVision M5 as a versatile solution for a broad spectrum of users.

One of MLVision M5’s standout features is its immersive visual projection system, which offers an 86-inch private virtual screen. Powered by MLVision’s proprietary Hummingbird Micro-LED light engine and advanced nano-scale diffraction waveguide technology, the glasses create a secure and private viewing experience, ideal for reading confidential documents or browsing personal files. To prioritize eye health, the device utilizes soft green light with a projection distance of 4 meters, reducing strain during extended use.

The MLVision M5 is also equipped with the AIOS platform, delivering unparalleled AI-driven capabilities to enhance user productivity and accessibility. With intelligent tools like document summarization, real-time translation in seven languages, and interactive AI chat for setting reminders and brainstorming ideas, the device seamlessly integrates into the modern workflow. Additionally, its innovative Care Mode provides real-time audio transcription, enabling a more inclusive experience for users with hearing impairments.

The MLVision M5 excels as a navigation powerhouse, offering intuitive, real-time directions to guide users seamlessly through various environments. Whether exploring a new city, finding the fastest route to your destination, or navigating while riding a bike, the M5 ensures you always stay on the right path with ease and confidence.

The MLVision M5 will launch in China at the end of January 2025. Pricing and pre-order details will be announced in the coming weeks.

MLVision, a global innovator in wearable technology, continues to push the boundaries of what is possible by merging innovation, style, and functionality. With the launch of MLVision M5, the company reinforces its commitment to accessibility, sustainability, and creating cutting-edge solutions that redefine how technology is integrated into everyday life.
