Biology meets cloud computing and AI: Unilever partners with Arzeda to harness the power of computer designed enzymes – KPVI News 6

LONDON and SEATTLE, July 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --Unilever and Arzeda, the industry-leading Protein Design Company, have entered a strategic partnership to apply the latest advances in digital biology to discovering and designing new enzymes. The partnership will impact many of the world's leading cleaning and laundry products, including Unilever's OMO (Persil), Sunlight, and Surf.

Enzymes are fundamental to the natural and living world around us, responsible for nearly all biological functions that take place on earth, from how plants and trees absorb CO2, to how we convert food to energy in our bodies. Enzymes have also long been a key ingredient in cleaning and laundry products, breaking down stains made from fat, oils, and protein chains on our laundry and surfaces. To date, science has only scraped the surface of the benefits they could provide in our everyday lives. Unlocking their power could provide almost endless possibilities.

Under the partnership, over the next three years, the global consumer goods company will apply Arzeda's world-leading digital biology techniques to its own product innovations across its cleaning and laundry portfolio. Arzeda learns from the vast number of enzymes already in nature, and uses smart technologies a combination of physics-based computational protein design and deep learning, a form of AI to optimise their functionalities. As well as exploring enzymes occurring naturally in the world, Arzeda is also able to design diverse, new versions with unique benefits that would otherwise not have been possible.

Originally derived from nature, Arzeda optimizes enzymes to replace ingredients with a high environmental footprint commonly found in most cleaning and laundry products. As part of its Clean Future strategy, Unilever has committed to eliminate virgin fossil fuels as a feedstock for the chemicals in its cleaning and laundry product formulations. Enzymes, which are low carbon, naturally derived and deliver added performance benefits, will be critical in helping Unilever realise its Clean Future ambition. The discovery and optimisation of new enzymes in formulations could result in up to 50% less ingredients required, while delivering superior cleaning benefits to the consumer.

As well as delivering new benefits for the cleaning and laundry sector, this partnership will encourage knowledge sharing of previously undiscovered uses for enzymes that could solve wider consumer, industrial and environmental challenges across multiple sectors. Arzeda is working with a number of global players at present to produce future-focussed solutions to large societal and everyday problems, from the production of renewable chemicals to self-healing phone screens.

Peter ter Kulve, Unilever Home Care President said, "This partnership is an exciting step forward as we work to transform our cleaning and laundry business to be superior, sustainable and affordable to all. We look forward to working with Arzeda in developing a new generation of ultra-performing cleaning and laundry products with an environmental impact a fraction of the size of current products."

Alexandre Zanghellini, CEO and founder of Arzeda said, "We are delighted to work with Unilever to support their Clean Future ambition with enzymes that improve the environmental footprint of consumer products. Arzeda's mission is to design and manufacture new proteins that improve health and sustainability, and we see this partnership as a key milestone to make this a reality in home care. Working with Unilever, we hope to create a new era for industrial enzymes that will contribute to a more sustainable world while improving consumer experience."

Microsoft cloud solution architect weighs in on cloud computing and more – SiliconANGLE News

Hybrid cloud solutions are hot right now, with many businesses recognizing the benefits of both on-premises and cloud architecture enterprises, especially in tandem.

Approaching on-prem and cloud services, however, requires an understanding of both the parallels and differences between the two and how both demand different management and overhead.

On-premise, everything is a virtual machine. Its an OS that you have to manage, the patching, the security, the policy, said John Savill (pictured), principal cloud solution architect at Microsoft. When you move to the cloud, you have all these other types of services when I move to the cloud, I can shift my focus to just that business value and let the cloud vendor take care of the responsibility of keeping the things running. It enables me to shift and just focus on value, which is key.

Savill spoke with Dave Vellante, host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Medias livestreaming studio, during the recentMobile World Congress event. They discussed on-prem versus cloud architecture, hybrid solutions, Microsoft Azure and more.(*Disclosure below.)

Pricing by consumption is an attractive benefit for industries such as telco, with subscription-based payment models attracting more and more businesses into adopting the cloud and hybrid solutions.

On-premises, we have bits of equipment, Savill said. We have this server, with memory and CPU, and we have different usage. We have peaks, and we have lows. We have the same bit of hardware Im paying for all of the time.

Microsoft Azure, a cloud computing service, offers developers the ability to take advantage of both on-prem and cloud solutions.

What Azure has is the public cloud services. Then it has things like Azure Edge, Azure Stack Hub and HCI that let me have things on-premises in different form factors, Savill explained. As a developer, as an architect, I create my solution, but now I can run it in the cloud. I can run it on-premises.

Developers can move or switch to hybrid easily if their requirements change, giving Microsoft customers the choice and leverage of different technologies and the ability to freely write and run architecture solutions, Savill concluded.

Benefits and Use Cases of Cloud Computing for Small Businesses – Influencive

The backbone of each countrys economy is small and medium-sized enterprises (SMB). They offer jobs and act as a driving force for growth and innovation. Most of todays billions of dollars companies were starting humbly.

We may utilize several criteria to categorize a company as small, medium, or large. Factors like money, sales, personnel, or operational size may be included. Of course, a tiny firm must make use of its limited resources to the best possible extent.

Astonishingly, the value cloud solutions offer to any company. However, these advantages might be overpowering in the case of small companies. Let us touch on the two basic deployment infrastructure types before highlighting the primary advantages of cloud-based solutions for small businesses.

Even the tiniest organizations can now achieve the advantages of cloud computing, which was formerly exclusively open for significant companies. Cloud providers offer organizations of all sizes cheap, customizable, near-Schlissel alternatives.

You may argue that small companies gain the most from cloud computing. However, when a firm evaluates the choice of an on-site vs. a cloud server, several considerations come into play. Here we will explain cloud computing advantages and recommendations for moving a cloud business.

Cloud Solutions advantages for small companies

In commercial organizations, the relevance of cloud computing is not limited to huge companies alone. The Cloud is, on the contrary, one of the only advanced technologies that even small and medium enterprises have equal accessibility to. This eliminates obstacles to entry for SMBs and gives much of a fair playing field.

Reduction in Costs

Depending on if your solution is in situ or outsourced, the nature of the cost reduced varies. The cost advantages are discussed below. The following:

OnPremises / In House

The firm must only invest in a robust server when the solution is implemented onsite.

The remainder of its IT gear must not be upgraded periodically, thereby conserving expenses.

A company can grant access to its cloud network to many employees at no extra expense.

Outsourced / Cloud Service Provider

The service providers entire duty lies with all relevant hardware if a CSP is engaged.

Existing business computers need not be upgraded while the CSP resources are being used.

Only through a small use charge may the Company generate new users on a cloud network.

Flexible Access

Once the cloud network has a unique user, the employee may access the Cloud through several platforms and places. Smartphones, tablets, laptops, or desktops are famous examples. In addition, an employee may access the work from home and on the move.

This flexibility may substantially improve an employees productivity and motivation. By leveraging the Cloud, small companies can even recruit mobile or remote employees prepared to work for much less than a regular employee who has to work every day.

Ease of Collaboration

The workforce nowadays is very varied and often dispersed physically. The physical distance does not hinder efficiency since the data is centrally managed in any cloud system. This is especially beneficial when working circumstances, such as project projects, demand a small group of people perform a job or process and real-time communication.

Each employee may do the task from the previous employees place when the data is stored in the cloud network. This improves cooperation and coordination among staff which might help a small company with a limited number of competent personnel.

Improved Security

A cloud solution is ideal for keeping all data in a central location, whether at home or with a CSP. It is administratively convenient compared to data irregularly dispersed across multiple devices to safeguard a centralized database against cyber-attacks.

Another benefit of the cloud solution is that the data is protected from unauthorized usage if an individual device used to connect to the cloud network is lost or stolen. The sole safeguard is to update the password used to access the club network by the employee involved.

Efficiency

Whether they have been stored in-house or externally, the servers that centrally store the data are far better. Secondly, the cloud network also includes all productivity apps and software. Even if small enterprise equipment is relatively outdated, the general efficiency remains the same. Productivity of employees extends beyond workplace physical limits.

Flexibility

From a small business as well as its employees, cloud solutions are very adaptable. The firm will not have to buy different personal computers because it recruits new employees. Instead, every new employee will get a new and unique user, and they are good to go.

The advantages of the flexibility of a cloud also include small business personnel. The device people use to access the cloud network does not have to worry about. Correct login credentials are the only thing needed. Furthermore, even without turning to work in person, an employee can stay productive.

Scalability

Typically, if a small company intends to expand its activities, it has to supply the new personnel with more IT hardware. All the capital expenses for the procurement of new hardware will be deducted if there is a decrease in size.

Instead, scaling up or down using a cloud solution is considerably faster and cost-effective. The IT department will add new users over the cloud network to increase its growth. Likewise, when an employee quits the business, the user is simply withdrawn and erased from the Cloud after the data has been secured.

The sole expense of scaling up will be an extra cost for each new user if the cloud solution is outsourced to a CSP. Similarly, if a small enterprise wishes to use new CSP software, a price for minimal use may be paid within a few minutes.

Compatibility

All the data and apps are kept in a single place, be they at home or outsourced. Any patch relating to update, security, or performance must be installed at one spot. Every current and the new user is automatically affected by the effect.

Every single machine of the small Company must be upgraded separately in the event of a typical infrastructure. This creates worries over poor compatibility and requires small enterprises to retain an army of IT engineers to take care of these minor and recurrent chores.

Remote Work

Cost-related efficiency is one of the key competitive advantages of SMBs. Due to its limited resources, the majority of SMEs are continuously looking for cost savings. A trustworthy cloud computing solution like dinHVD can provide your workers with a seamless remote work environment.

It can save costs for SMBs regardless of whether remote employment is voluntary or due to unanticipated events. You may save a variety of business overloads such as rent, utilities, and similar administrative costs with the complete or a majority of your staff operating remotely over the Cloud.

Business Continuity

In contrast to huge companies with deep coffers and high shock-absorption capacity, SMBs are particularly sensitive to issues that might disrupt their smooth operations. Unrivaled business continuity (BC) for cloud computing provides SMBs with a fraction of the expense of creating these mechanisms.

Whether your small business is caused by natural or human events, mainly due to cloud computing, it is quite probable that you stay immune from its impacts. In the aftermath of the crisis, your small and medium-sized organization is embedded into the cloud services withDisaster Recovery (DR).

Cloud computing can drive collaboration and workflow efficiency for oil and gas companies – JWN

Cloud computing can answer many challenges facing oil and gas companies by ensuring ideal data sets and visualization tools are fully accessible to relevant team members.

But it can be a difficult decision to transition from a traditional (monolithic) IT infrastructure where the organization controls management and security of all hardware, software, databases and applications, towards buying each of its infrastructure, platform and software as a service, according to a new white paper released by the Daily Oil Bulletin and geoLOGIC systems ltd.

There is a compelling case for many companies to migrate data workflows to the cloud, said geoLOGIC chief executive David Hood. It can reduce infrastructure investment and the need for IT expertise to manage and troubleshoot. It enables efficient access to data and visualization tools for asset teams wherever and whenever they may need it. And it is scalable to fit the purpose and offers companies the flexibility to access only the data they need.

Many oil and gas companies have been relatively slow movers to cloud solutions compared to other technology-reliant sectors. Forty per cent of industry respondents to a DOB survey indicate their data is cloud-based. Among this number, some companies have totally moved to the cloud, while others are running hybrid systems with some data cloud-based and some hosted internally. Results from the survey informed the white paper, entitled: Strategies for data-driven value creation within oil and gas.

Companies that have migrated data and intelligence tools to the cloud say it provides improved security and lowers costs. Savings are being driven by the reliability of cloud computing, with less downtime experienced by users due to the automation of many processes, and with data updates and software updates completed without outages.

Other key benefits to cloud computing cited by survey respondents include accessibility, flexibility, data and intelligence sharing, and collaboration opportunities.

Given the COVID-19 pandemics impact on the employee work environment, the ability to remotely access data and business intelligence tools from anywhere at any time via an Internet browser has become a major positive upside in favour of cloud computing. Accessibility to the same data for all employees across disciplines and departments is seen as vital by both leadership and employees. Related to accessibility, the flexibility to share data across disciplines to collaborate on projects via a single platform is also a major benefit.

Post-pandemic, it will be interesting to see what happens when it is safe for all workers to return to the office, added Hood. It is possible the industry could see a hybrid work environment with employees splitting their time between the office and working from home. If this happens, shifting at least some data workflows to the cloud could become an essential process for many companies.

There are several reasons companies say they havent fully transitioned to the cloud. Cyber-security remains an obstacle. While many companies are willing to access third-party data and intelligence tools via the cloud, they perceive the need to maintain control over internally generated data and tools, said survey respondents. Legacy investment in IT infrastructure is also seen by some as an impediment to a purely cloud-based future.

Some larger companies perceive the benefits of the cloud but believe the large volume of data and internal infrastructure they currently manage could make the transition more expensive and time-consuming. Meanwhile, many smaller companies including oilfield service companies are concerned they lack critical mass to justify the switch.

geoLOGIC recently launched its gDC Cloud platform to answer these concerns. The gDC Cloud is a secure, web-based platform that provides flexibility for lighter data users within large companies who may only use a handful of data sets in their regular workflows, said Terry Jbeili, geoLOGICs president and chief operating officer.

For smaller operating companies the gDC Cloud provides the benefits of seamless access to geoLOGICs premium data and advanced visualization tools as well as the benefits of cloud computing without the expense of maintaining a legacy system, he said. The same holds true for oilfield service companies looking to leverage data and business intelligence to gain an edge in what remains a hyper-competitive market.

Its Time To Break Glass On Cybersecurity Urgency – Forbes

Recent high profile ransomware attacks have illuminated the need to strengthen cybersecurity ... [+] measures.

If it seems that cybersecurity attacks are on the rise, you are not mistaken. When this year is in the books, every industry report will show how the frequency of attacks escalated exponentially again while the cost of attacks became higher than ever before. We are less than five months into 2021, and with the Colonial Pipeline attack, we already witnessed one of the costliest cyberattacks ever. The cycle for major cyber incidents has now become a matter of daysnot weeksas we witness continued major ransomware attacks, data loss, major breaches, as well as intelligence and industry warnings. If there was ever a time to get serious about cybersecurity, that time is now.

On May 7, 2021, Colonial Pipeline, an American oil pipeline that carries gasoline and jet fuel to the Southeastern United States, suffered a ransomware cyberattack that impacted the essential equipment managing the pipeline. The impact was so severe that it led to emergency declarations from President Biden, as well as the Governor of Georgia.

While the Colonial Pipeline hack has been well documented in terms of multi-billion dollar impact to the economy of the US, consider the recent major Microsoft Exchange platform vulnerability that has been cycling in the news as well. The industry struggled with remediation on this issue because tens of thousands of customers use this software suite and the platform was specifically targeted due to its wide base. Known to the industry as the HAFNIUM incident, the name comes from a state sponsored cyber espionage group out of China that has been profiled as the actors behind the vulnerability. Once infected, affected servers allowed remote code execution and untrusted network activity, even after some of the existing patch updates.

Another incident that comes to mind is a recent security breach that affected an industry-wide networking equipment and Internet of Things (IoT) devices provider known as Ubiquiti. In early January 2021, the company started notifying customers about an unauthorized access issue found on the management services for Ubiquiti systems. Months later, the understanding of the impact has grown to include loss of root credentials for cloud services, databases, private cryptographic encryption keys, and more for thousands of direct and indirect clients.

And just a few short months ago, the SolarWinds supply chain software attack shocked many throughout the industry. Once again, the scale of impact was thrust upon thousands of companies. With each passing day, the threat is becoming more real than ever before.

The pandemic, and its resulting changes to the business world,accelerated digitalizationof business processes, endpoint mobility and the expansion of cloud computing in most organizations, revealing legacy thinking and technologies, according to Peter Firstbrook from Gartner. Old technologies and antiquated processes are definitely to blame. But also far too often, we witness the adoption of principles where ransomware victims just pay up. As many as a third of businesses in 2021 that reported a ransomware attack decided to pay the ransom. Paying ransom demands encourages more hackers and the statistics show that not only do hackers come back to attack businesses that paid, less than 10 percent of the data that is paid out is ever completely recovered. Paying for crime doesnt pay off and it is a glaring example of poor preparedness and lack of strategy. The guard cannot be let down as millions of people continue to be impacted by these issues daily. Cybersecurity incidents are creating a bigger impact on the economy than many people have realized as evidenced in the recent ransomware attack on the Colonial Pipeline which shut down the Eastern Seaboard. We need to evaluate what we are collectively doing right and what we are doing wrong.

There are, however, positive steps that can be done immediately. We can apply the best of what we know to deal with these significant threats.

The first elementary step is to do some widespread cleanup. Get rid of all instances of default passwords, all of those passwords you think cannot be changed and all of those strange devices and components that do not have any passwords in place. Even if its on your private network, everything can be a vector and hackers know it.

Next, Enterprise IT needs to come to terms with our collective lazy nature. This means going through every component of an environment that is old, that was set up before anyone knew better or was set up with the focus on convenience or speed. These are classic weakest link scenarios, and they are lying around everywhereno environment is above these missteps.

Enterprises need to support greater cybersecurity urgency now, review security planning and embrace the leading principles of comprehensive cybersecurity. Ultimately, the price to be paid is unwavering diligence and a hyper-focus on better comprehensive security starting with protecting the castle, recovering from a breach and then assurance that future attacks cannot be detrimental.

You can protect your assets and organization by following and looking for solutions that focus on:

You can plan for a recovery from a breach by implementing:

You need to have assurance that your infrastructure is truly protected by routinely conducting:

Only when we take this trinity of protection, recovery, and assurance are we able to reduce risks substantially and beat the bad actors.

Based on the continual cycle of breach information continues to emerge, there is no reason to hold back on cybersecurity planning and budget. Organizations need to push the pedal on evaluation, assessment, monitoring, and contingency planning, and shift their mindset to always assume a breach is underway. Not only should organizations break the glass and get their security playbook in full swing, but also break the bank to fund it.
