  • MIL-OSI: Safe Harbor Financial and Würk Partner to Expand Access to Cannabis Financial Services and Workforce Solutions

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    DENVER, April 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SHF Holdings, Inc., d/b/a Safe Harbor Financial (Safe Harbor) (Nasdaq: SHFS), a fintech leader in facilitating financial services and credit facilities to the regulated cannabis industry is expanding its partnership with Würk, the first and leading Human Capital Management (HCM) company in the cannabis industry. Through this strategic partnership, Safe Harbor and Würk and will establish a mutual referral program leveraging their combined expertise in providing innovative HCM and financial services solutions to help cannabis businesses secure the banking1 rates and financial support necessary for success.

    As the cannabis sector matures and regulatory complexities grow, these integrated services offer operators a crucial advantage in navigating compliance and scaling effectively. Under the agreement, Würk will introduce cannabis-related businesses (CRBs) to Safe Harbor’s digital-first banking solutions, while Safe Harbor will refer clients to Würk for industry-specific HCM services. Together, Würk and Safe Harbor will employ their deep knowledge of the evolving industry and technological solutions to connect cannabis entrepreneurs with fair banking rates and effective financial resources. While the agreement formalizes a strategic referral partnership, it is non-exclusive, allowing both companies the flexibility to continue serving a wide range of industry clients and partners.

    Safe Harbor and Würk are bolstering their collaborative efforts to help enterprises overcome one of the industry’s most common challenges: access to reliable, transparent and compliant banking solutions. By bridging the gap between workforce management and financial accessibility, Würk and Safe Harbor will also help cannabis professionals establish personal bank accounts with institutions that fully recognize and support the industry. This partnership is designed to help cannabis entrepreneurs address both financial and operational roadblocks that limit their ability to compete and grow.

    “As recently as 2023, seven in ten cannabis businesses said the ‘lack of access to banking or investment capital’ was their top challenge—and that reality is still holding back innovation and growth,” said Deborah Saneman, CEO of Würk. “By partnering with Safe Harbor, we’re able to connect our clients to critical resources they need to thrive. Just as Würk helps simplify people management in a highly regulated space, Safe Harbor streamlines access to reliable financial services. Together, we’re not just solving a pain point—we’re laying the groundwork for long-term stability and expansion across the cannabis sector.”

    “This partnership is more than just a referral program—it’s a shared commitment to solving one of the most persistent and painful challenges in the cannabis space: access to financial services,” said Terry Mendez, CEO of Safe Harbor Financial. “By connecting our clients to Würk’s industry-leading workforce tools and offering their clients access to our compliant financial services, we’re helping businesses potentially reduce costs while bridging two foundational needs – people and capital. Together, we’re creating real pathways for cannabis operators to grow with confidence, compliance, and lasting support.”

    Safe Harbor Financial is a fintech leader facilitating financial services and credit facilities to the regulated cannabis industry, offering a range of financial solutions geared towards the unique needs of cannabis businesses. With more than a decade of experience, Safe Harbor has helped hundreds of clients navigate the complex sea of regulations imposed at the state and federal level.

    The launch of the mutual referral program enhances the company’s library of financial solutions. Würk leverages nearly a decade of experience to develop solutions that improve recruiting, human resources, scheduling, timekeeping, payroll, and retirement planning.

  • MIL-OSI: Drone Surveying Industry Witnessing Continuous Technological Advancements Generating Rising Revenue Opportunity

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    PALM BEACH, Fla., April 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FN Media Group News Commentary – The drone surveying market is witnessing increased demand for its services across different industries. The survey done by drones has multiple benefits in comparison to the traditional way of surveys such as lower cost, reduced time, and improved end results. According to Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider, the global drone surveying market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 19.3% during the forecast period of 2023 to 2033. The report said; “The drone covers a larger area within less amount of time and money for a survey if compared with the traditional or conventional way of surveys. Since the data is captured and generated with actual imagery, it also brings better transparency in the end result. All these benefits have resulted in increased demand from governments and real estate development companies for drone surveying services. The drone surveying service providers are entering into partnerships with companies and the government to carry out surveys on their behalf for the planning and development of urban areas and townships. The image and data collected from the drone surveys are more accurate and can be converted into meaningful output as per the requirements. This helps governments and infrastructure development companies in different stages of planning in township development, urban planning, and land surveys. The continuous advancement of technology in the drone market has led to increased demand for their products and services. The services or task performed by a drone has significantly improved in the last few years which has ultimately resulted in improved demand.” Active Companies in the drone industry today include ZenaTech, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZENA), Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ONDS), AgEagle Aerial Systems Inc. (NYSE: UAVS), Unusual Machines, Inc. (NYSE American: UMAC), AeroVironment, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVAV).

    Fact.MR concluded; “The industries catered to by drones have also increased significantly. Earlier most of the demand for drones was from agriculture and public administration, now it has increased to infrastructure development, mining, energy, education, and transportation among others. Now a mining company can easily calculate/measure the area covered for the mining, or the stockpile volume with the help of drone surveys. It is expected that in the coming years, the drone surveying industry will witness continuous technological advancement, resulting in the expansion of service offerings.”

    ZenaTech (NASDAQ:ZENA) Closes Second Southeast Region Acquisition, Wallace Surveying Corporation, Set to Become the Third Acquisition to Power Its National Drone as a Service (DaaS) Business – ZenaTech, Inc. (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology company specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drone, Drone-as-a-Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS and Quantum Computing solutions, announces that it has closed the acquisition of Wallace Surveying Corporation (“Wallace”) of West Palm Beach, Florida, a well-established land survey company with thirty years of experience. Wallace provides construction and land development surveys delivering accurate and reliable data that supports project planning and design for developers, contractors, engineers, and architect customers.

    This is ZenaTech’s second acquisition in the Southeast region as part of a larger national roll-up strategy to disrupt the land survey industry by accelerating the use of drones for speed and accuracy benefits. The acquisition also further powers the Company’s national Drone as a Service, or DaaS, business as the third US acquisition set to provide access to the ZenaDrone 1000 and the IQ series. These multifunction drones are set to provide a variety of services including power line inspections, precision agriculture, law enforcement, and search and rescue for natural disasters such as hurricanes.

    “Wallace Surveying Corporation is well respected in the South Florida business community with longstanding existing customer relationships. Its team brings considerable expertise toward our goal of innovating land surveys at scale leveraging advanced drone data collection, data management, mapping and digital deliverables. This acquisition is another step towards our vision to create a national DaaS business, bringing AI drone efficiencies and precision to a variety of legacy verticals and manual tasks,” said CEO Shaun Passley, Ph.D.

    ZenaTech’s Drones as a Service or DaaS model is similar to Software as a Service (SaaS), but instead of providing software solutions over the Internet, the company will offer ZenaDrone solutions and services on a subscription or pay-per-use basis. Customers can conveniently access drones for eliminating manual or time-consuming tasks achieving more precision, such as for surveying, inspections, security and law enforcement, or farming precision agriculture applications, without having to buy, operate, or maintain the drones themselves.

    The DaaS business model offers customers such as government agencies, real estate developers, construction firms, farmers or energy companies reduced upfront costs as there is no need to purchase expensive drones, as well as convenience, as there is no need to manage maintenance and operation. The model also offers scalability to use more often or less often based on business needs and enables access to advanced drone technology sensors or attachments like spraying, without the need for specialized training.

    Accurate land surveys are essential for the planning, designing, and executing of roads, bridges, and building projects for cities, commercial, and residential projects, and are required for legal purposes. Remotely piloted drones with an array of sensors and cameras, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), and GPS systems for capturing high-resolution pictures and data are revolutionizing the land survey industry gathering aerial data across expansive terrains in a matter of hours instead of weeks or months using more traditional photogrammetry methods.

  • MIL-OSI: March Commercial Chapter 11s Increase 20 Percent from Previous Year

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    NEW YORK, April 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Commercial chapter 11 bankruptcy filings increased 20 percent in March 2025, with filings climbing to 733 from the 611 filings registered in March 2024, according to data provided by Epiq AACER, the leading provider of U.S. bankruptcy filing data. Total March commercial filings increased 10 percent to 2,727 from the 2,477 commercial filings the previous year. Small business filings, captured as subchapter V elections within chapter 11, decreased 1 percent in March 2025, to 196 from the 198 filings recorded in March 2024.

    “The 20 percent rise in commercial Chapter 11 filings to 733 in March 2025, up from 611 last year, signals persistent economic pressure, mirrored by a 10 percent increase in total commercial filings to 2,727,” said Michael Hunter, Vice President of Epiq AACER. “Meanwhile, credit card delinquencies have hit a near 10-year high, driven by rising interest rates and consumer debt burdens.

    “In the FHA mortgage portfolio, we’re seeing elevated recidivism, with delinquency rates climbing to 11 percent, surpassing pre-pandemic levels as borrowers exiting forbearance face renewed strain,” Hunter said. “Adding to this, government job layoffs threaten to exacerbate financial instability for federal workers reliant on stable income to service debts. While small business subchapter V filings dipped 1 percent to 196, the broader 13 percent surge in total bankruptcies to 50,189 reflects a complex landscape where data-driven insights are vital for navigating distress across sectors.”

    Total bankruptcy filings were 50,189 in March 2025, a 13 percent increase from the March 2024 total of 44,471. Individual bankruptcy filings also increased 13 percent in March 2025, to 47,462, up from the March 2024 individual filing total of 41,994. There were 30,671 individual chapter 7 filings in March 2025, an 18 percent increase over the 26,102 filings recorded in March 2024. The 16,713 individual chapter 13 filings in March 2025 represented a 6 percent increase from the 15,840 individual chapter 13 filings last March.

    “While overall bankruptcy filings increased in the past year, subchapter V elections by small businesses declined and the pace of consumer chapter 13 filing increases slowed,” said ABI Executive Director Amy Quackenboss. “As both filing categories saw expanded debt eligibility limits expire last year, we look forward to working with Congress to re-establish higher debt thresholds to provide struggling small businesses and families greater access to the financial fresh start of bankruptcy.”

    The 131,998 total bankruptcy filings registered during the first calendar quarter of 2025 (Jan. 1 through March 31) represented a 10 percent increase over the 120,135 total first-quarter filings from the previous year. Consumer filings also increased 10 percent, to 124,696 filings in the first quarter of 2025 from the 112,949 consumer filings during the same period in 2024. Individual chapter 7 filings during the first quarter of 2025 were 76,501, a 14 percent increase over the 66,831 individual chapter 7 filings during the same period in 2024. Individual chapter 13 filings during the first quarter of 2025 were 47,928, a 4 percent increase over the 45,956 individual chapter 13 filings in the same period of 2024.

    Total overall commercial bankruptcies increased 2 percent in the first quarter of 2025, as the 7,302 filings were up slightly over the 7,186 commercial filings during the first quarter of 2024. Conversely, the 1,760 total commercial chapter 11 filings were down 7 percent during the first quarter of 2025 from the 1,902 total commercial chapter 11s during the same period in 2024. Subchapter V elections for small businesses were down 4 percent to 535 filings in Q1 2025 from the 559 filed during Q1 2024.

    242 Blocks Won in March, 17% Increase M/M
    Increased BTC Holdings* to 47,531 BTC

    Fort Lauderdale, FL, April 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MARA Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MARA) (“MARA” or the “Company”), a global leader in leveraging digital asset compute to support energy transformation, today published unaudited bitcoin (“bitcoin” or “BTC”) production updates for March 2025.

    Management Commentary
    “In March, our production saw a 17% month-over-month increase in blocks won, even as global hashrate and mining difficulty grew,” said Fred Thiel, MARA’s chairman and CEO. “Our bitcoin holdings surpassed 47,000 BTC during March and the 242 blocks mined were the third most in a month on record.

    “MARAPool is the only self-owned and operated mining pool among public miners, offering distinctive control and efficiency. Operating our own pool means no fees to external operators, higher earnings and superior performance. MARA Pool’s luck factor has exceeded the network average by over 10% since launch, meaning more blocks mined and higher rewards.

    “Energized hashrate grew 1% over February and we expect to finish construction of our 40-megawatt data center in Ohio by the end of April. We will continue to focus on being the dominant player in bitcoin mining while expanding our footprint in energy generation.”

  • MIL-OSI: AI-driven Attacks to Become Faster, More Sophisticated, and Harder to Detect by 2026, New Delinea Report Shows

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN FRANCISCO, April 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Delinea, a leading provider of solutions for securing human and machine identities through centralized authorization, today released its inaugural Cybersecurity and the AI Threat Landscape report. The report, based on exclusive Delinea Labs research and an analysis of several third-party studies and real-world cyber incidents, reveals critical insights into the rapidly evolving threat landscape. With AI reshaping both attack and defense strategies, the findings underscore the urgent need for organizations to adapt their security measures to counter AI-driven threats.

    The report uncovers a sharp rise in attacks targeting non-human identities (NHIs), such as service accounts, APIs, and machine identities. Delinea’s research reveals that for every human identity, there are currently 46 NHIs, a number expected to exceed 45 billion by 2025. Alarmingly, over 70% of NHIs are not rotated within recommended timeframes, with an average cycle of 627 days, far exceeding security best practices. Additionally, 97% of organizations expose their NHIs to third-party vendors, significantly increasing the risk of unauthorized access.

    “One of the biggest challenges identified in the report is the increasing targeting of non-human identities,” said Jon Kuhn, SVP of Product Management at Delinea. “For organizations, this shift means they are facing a massive and often ignored security gap. With the number of these machine identities expected to grow exponentially in the coming years as enterprises continue to rapidly adopt AI, the lack of proper credential management and the exposure of these identities to third parties creates serious vulnerabilities that cyber attackers can exploit to gain unauthorized access to critical systems and data.”

    The resurgence of ransomware

    The report also reveals a disturbing trend in ransomware attacks, which in 2024 became more sophisticated with the rise of double extortion tactics. Cybercriminals not only encrypt but also exfiltrate sensitive data, threatening to release it publicly unless a ransom is paid. Five ransomware groups — RansomHub, LockBit, Play, Akira, and Hunters — were responsible for over 36% of all ransomware incidents monitored by Delinea in 2024, totaling more than 5,700 attacks. Looking ahead, the report anticipates a surge in AI-driven phishing attacks, with cybercriminals using AI to craft increasingly convincing phishing emails, making it harder to distinguish legitimate communications from malicious ones.

    “The rise in ransomware sophistication and the increasing prevalence of AI-driven attacks are undeniable trends in today’s cybersecurity landscape,” said Gal Diskin, Vice President of Threat & Research at Delinea. “Our research reveals that cybercriminals are increasingly using AI and powerful Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) tools to launch more targeted and scalable attacks, particularly around phishing and machine identities. To stay ahead, organizations must adapt their security strategies, focusing not just on advanced threat detection, but also foundational security controls and strengthening multi-factor authentication (MFA) to combat the growing threat of credential phishing.”

    Delinea Labs, the research and development arm of Delinea, is at the forefront of analyzing emerging cybersecurity threats. Comprised of elite security researchers and threat intelligence experts, the team conducts in-depth studies of attack techniques and vulnerabilities, helping organizations stay ahead of the ever-evolving threat landscape. In addition to its cutting-edge security research, Delinea Labs also drives AI innovation, exploring how artificial intelligence can enhance threat detection, risk analysis, and identity security to further strengthen cybersecurity defenses.
