    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CHARLOTTE, N.C., Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Discovery Education, the creator of essential K-12 solutions used in classrooms around the world, today announced the launch of a new Digital Citizenship Initiative. The Digital Citizenship Initiative is a dynamic partnership that provides educators and students with free tools, resources, and the skills needed to thrive in today’s digital world.

    The Digital Citizenship Initiative grew out of needs summarized in a dedicated white paper entitled Risks and Resilience: Why Digital Citizenship Matters in K12 Education. This study illuminated many of the issues facing today’s students, including cyberbullying, online privacy, and digital footprints. Furthermore, research shows that students remain largely unaware of the impacts of digital technologies on all aspects of life. Discovery Education defines digital citizenship as a set of strategies and behaviors designed to promote a safer online experience for everyone.

    The Digital Citizenship Initiative partners include Impact Leader Verizon and Fortinet. Each partner has helped contribute expert insights to develop standards-aligned digital resources. Resources include ready-to-use materials, digital lessons, DEMystified series videos, and instructional materials spanning disciplines such as science, health, social studies, and English language arts. Educators can expect quarterly content releases covering a range of topics that address digital citizenship.

    “At Verizon, we are driven by purpose and guided by values in all that we do. Being part of the Digital Citizenship Initiative is the latest building block in Verizon’s work to empower people to live, work, and play. Students are our future, and we are proud to support them as they learn to use digital technologies responsibly,” said Alex Servello, Associate Vice President of Responsible Business at Verizon.

    “As a cybersecurity leader, we believe that staying ahead of sophisticated threats and cyber risks requires building a more cyber-aware society,” said Rob Rashotte, Vice President, Fortinet Training Institute. “To help achieve this, Fortinet partnered with educators to develop and make accessible a tailor-made security awareness curriculum to help prepare both educators and students to apply cybersecurity skills at school, at home, and everywhere they need it. We are proud that this curriculum will now be leveraged in the Digital Citizenship Initiative to further develop fundamental security skill sets across our global community.”

    To access the Digital Citizenship Initiative resources, please visit digitalcitizenship.discoveryeducation.com. Educators with access to Discovery Education Experience can find these resources on the Digital Citizenship channel.

    “Digital technology has revolutionized the way students learn, connect, and express themselves. Supporting digital citizenship is critical for preparing students to navigate an increasingly connected and complex online environment,” said Amy Nakamoto, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Strategic Alliances. “Thanks to our partners – Verizon and Fortinet – for your leadership in preparing students to navigate our tech-driven world responsibly.”

  • MIL-OSI: Zoom and Mitel announce rollout of AI-first hybrid communications and collaboration solution

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, Zoom Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZM) and Mitel, a global leader in business communications, announced the global launch of a unique hybrid cloud solution that integrates Zoom Workplace and Zoom AI Companion with Mitel’s flagship communications platforms, including its leading telephony solutions. This marks a significant milestone in the strategic partnership between the companies announced in September 2024.

    Today, organizations are navigating the adoption of emerging technologies like AI while maintaining security, business continuity, and flexibility when modernizing business communications. This new solution is designed to meet the growing enterprise demand for hybrid unified communications (UC) deployments by offering a “best-of-both-worlds” approach that empowers organizations to deliver mission-critical communications capabilities alongside exceptional collaboration functions to enhance business productivity.

    The multi-phased rollout will see Zoom’s AI-first solution integrate seamlessly with existing Mitel software and devices, starting now with global availability for Mitel’s OpenScape Voice and OpenScape 4000 platforms. This will be expanded to include MiVoice Business solutions in the coming weeks, as well as MiVoice 5000 and MX-ONE solutions before the end of 2025. Device portfolios like the OpenScape CP and the Mitel 6900 Series are now Zoom Phone certified, with the full list of certified models available here. Certification of Mitel’s OpenScape SBC is also complete, enabling compatibility with Zoom’s Bring-Your-Own-PBX (BYOP) and Bring-Your-Own-Carrier (BYOC) direct routing capabilities. Mitel Border Gateway (MBG) certification will follow in the weeks ahead.

    “As businesses navigate the connectivity requirements to support hybrid work, they need solutions that unite the benefits of on-prem or single-instance cloud communications infrastructure with Zoom’s industry-leading collaboration experiences, giving them the best of both while future-proofing their organizations,” said Graeme Geddes, chief sales and growth officer at Zoom. “The AI-first solution provided by Zoom and Mitel makes connecting and collaborating seamless and efficient while giving customers the flexibility to migrate to the cloud on their own terms and with their existing Mitel devices.”

    “Recent research shows 92% of mid-to-large enterprises are considering hybrid deployments, and for good reason,” said David Petts, chief sales officer at Mitel*. “In today’s rapidly changing workplace, staying connected through video, chat, or voice is more important than ever and a vital part of business continuity planning. Mitel’s strategic partnership with Zoom has produced an offering that provides seamless access to these solutions while enabling compliance and security control in the most demanding use cases, industries, and geographies. With the integration of Zoom’s AI Companion, it’s a winning combination for organizations looking for an elevated collaboration experience that truly fits their overall communication needs.”

    Deliver AI-first collaboration tools built for modern work
    With the Zoom Workplace app fully integrated with secure Mitel telephony and devices, users can call, meet, and chat from a single solution, including the ability to escalate from a Mitel-powered call directly into a Zoom meeting. Additionally, users can brainstorm ideas, develop content, and kickstart project plans with Zoom Docs, Zoom Whiteboard, Zoom Clips, and more. AI Companion is woven throughout to help users jumpstart content creation, stay focused, prioritize what’s important, and get answers fast.

    Maintain control and maximize current investments
    With the joint hybrid solution, users can maintain unmatched control over mission-critical activities like release schedules, configurations, updates, system changes, and telephony while leveraging existing investments without isolation. For organizations in specialized industries like healthcare, hospitality, government, and financial services, this means having the ability to continue to leverage existing Mitel-certified vertical integrations along with specialized devices and workflows for frontline workers.

    Blend on-prem and cloud capabilities to suit an organization’s unique requirements
    The hybrid architecture from Zoom and Mitel provides users with a simple approach to blending on-prem with the right mix of private and public cloud on their terms to meet their unique needs. It gives organizations the flexibility, tools, and resilience they need to future-proof their current systems while maintaining reliability throughout the process. Additionally, using the Zoom Workplace app, users will have access to a consistent modern user experience every step of the way. If UCaaS is ultimately their preferred deployment model, they can easily bring their certified Mitel devices with them.

    Jim Lundy, Founder & CEO of Aragon Research, confirms that “The Mitel-Zoom partnership is a game changer, offering businesses a path to hybrid communications with AI collaboration and communications capabilities.”

    The joint solution is now available to customers worldwide. Further advanced capabilities are underway as part of the multi-phase partnership plan. For more information about the joint solution, please visit https://www.mitel.com/products/zoom-workplace.

  • MIL-OSI: Ataccama Data Trust Report 2025: One in five businesses lack a data governance framework, leaving AI advantages untapped

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    BOSTON, Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ataccama, the data trust company, today released the Ataccama Data Trust Report 2025: Turning Compliance and Risk Mitigation into a Foundation for Strategic AI Advantage, which highlights a disconnect between businesses’ ambitions for AI and their investment into compliance and risk mitigation. The second report in the series explores how many businesses are running before they can walk by building AI on unstable foundations made of data that isn’t governed correctly.

    The report found that 42% of organizations prioritize regulatory compliance, but only 26% focus on it within their data teams. This highlights blind spots with real-world consequences like regulatory fines and data breaches that can erode customer trust, financial stability, and competitiveness. The Data Trust Report suggests that organizations must reframe their thinking to see compliance as the foundation for long-term business value and trust.

    Automation is the engine of sustainable risk mitigation

    Generative and traditional AI tools are only as reliable as the data they depend on. To ensure this data isn’t compromised, businesses must adopt automation for more than just improving efficiencies. Considering 47% of organizations recognize data quality as critical to compliance and 39% highlight data accuracy as essential for risk mitigation, automation within this process is vastly undervalued.

    To gain access to AI-ready data, innovative companies should be embedding automation into their workflows for data validation and accuracy, scalable risk mitigation, and auditing. Without automation as the foundation for scalability, businesses risk their AI investment failing.

    Leadership misalignment is the silent killer of AI success

    33% of organizations cite leadership misalignment as a significant blocker for responsible AI adoption. The evolution of AI far outpaces historical transformations such as cloud adoption, creating an unprecedented urgency for strategic leadership alignment, which many businesses are lacking.

    Leadership teams must act decisively and responsibly to enable their organizations to set the pace for AI adoption. This includes ensuring complete alignment to a robust governance framework across the business, which 21% of organizations lack entirely. Driving this compliance from the top down will create a cultural reset that sees governance move from a reactive checkbox to a strategic driver of innovation and trust.

    The growing strain of regulatory tension

    Just 2% of organizations believe regulations stifle innovation, while 55% feel that current frameworks are too restrictive, showing clear tension between the optimism businesses feel towards compliance and the reality of fast-moving AI sectors. Currently, only 24% of organizations have implemented AI at scale, highlighting a significant gap in readiness.

    Fortunately, automation has the potential to improve regulatory adherence by 40% this year, which businesses can augment by establishing cross-functional teams to adapt to regulatory changes in real-time, and by shifting the mindset of their teams to see compliance as an opportunity rather than a hurdle.

    Mike McKee, CEO of Ataccama, said, “Ataccama is in a unique position to help companies tackle data quality as the foundation for successful AI business initiatives with our unified data trust platform that combines data quality, lineage, observability and master data management. Compliance built on high-quality, trusted data is the foundation for transparency, and it should be regarded as more than a tick-box exercise. Tackling this with a scalable solution embedded with AI-enabled automation will unlock a competitive advantage for initiatives such as customer expansion and personalized experiences. The business leaders that understand this and instill the same mindset throughout their companies will be the ones setting the pace in the future.”

    ZenaTech (NASDAQ:ZENA) ZenaDrone Advances IQ Square Drone to Manufacturing Stage for Outdoor Applications Including Inspections, Surveys, and the Fast-Growth Power Washing Sector – ZenaTech, Inc. (FSE: 49Q) (BMV: ZENA) (“ZenaTech”), a technology company specializing in AI (Artificial Intelligence) drones, Drone as a Service (DaaS), enterprise SaaS and Quantum Computing solutions, announces that its subsidiary ZenaDrone has moved its first batch of IQ Square multifunction drones from prototype to manufacturing stage. This drone was designed for outdoor applications for operator line-of-site inspections such as for building and construction inspections, short-range land surveys, power washing and other business and government applications. The IQ Square is also expected to be a key part of ZenaDrone’s multifunction drone inventory for its Drone as a Service or DaaS business, which enables business and government users to hire a turnkey drone service and drone pilot through a local store for easy subscription-based or pay-as-you-go access to drones for various uses.

    “The IQ Square’s rapid progression from the prototype stage, initiated in 2022, to the manufacturing and assembly stage is a testament to our hardware and engineering team’s dedication and hard work. We see many commercial and government applications for the IQ Square, which we also envision will be central to powering our future DaaS operations as a versatile multifunction drone for multiple outdoor uses requiring line-of-site including fast growth uses like power washing,” said CEO Shaun Passley, Ph.D.

    The IQ Square will be equipped with a power wash system for use in larger-scale cleaning jobs such as stadium seating, building exteriors, and public spaces; drones eliminate the need for scaffolding, lifts, or manual labor by providing a more efficient, safe, and cost-effective solution. Tethered to a ground-based water and a power source, it is designed to maintain a continuous supply of high-pressure water needed to clean large areas without the weight limitations of onboard tanks.

    The mold and drone body frames of the first batch of IQ Square drones are currently being completed, after which they will be assembled, integrated, and tested at the company’s Sharjah, UAE production facility. The Company will oversee the integration and quality inspection of electronics, battery and propulsion systems, software, and sensor installation and calibration, concluding with final flight testing.

    According to QYResearch, the global market for drone cleaning services, including applications such as water hose-tethered power washing for stadium seats and public areas, is projected to reach approximately $53.89 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 19.3%.

    CARROLLTON, Texas, Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Allied Energy Corporation (OTC: AGYP) is excited to announce significant strides in our ongoing projects and production capacity expansion, reinforcing our optimistic outlook for the company’s future. With the momentum of these developments, the company is well-positioned for substantial growth in the coming months.

    Production Buildout at Thiel Site: A Game-Changer for Capacity Growth

    At our Thiel site, we are making significant strides in expanding operational capacity by constructing and installing two 1.25 MW generators. The new production pad has already been successfully laid, and noise abatement testing is scheduled shortly.

    Once the first two generators are running at full capacity, we plan to add a third unit, increasing the site’s total capacity to an impressive 3 to 3.5 MW by the end of Q3 2025. This expansion strategically positions Allied Energy to capitalize on Texas’ booming energy sector, where industrial power consumption is projected to grow significantly in the coming years.

    Market Potential & Financial Impact

    • Dominance in Energy Production: Texas leads the nation in energy production, contributing significantly to U.S. crude oil and natural gas outputs. source: eia.gov
    • Competitive Electricity Rates: With commercial electricity rates in Texas averaging 8.73¢ per kWh, our scalable operations can take advantage of low-cost power, maximizing margins. source: chooseenergy.com
    • Projected Revenue Growth: At full capacity (approximately 3.5 MW), the Thiel site could generate significant revenues, depending on operational efficiency and market conditions.

    “By strengthening our infrastructure now, we are ensuring long-term scalability, improved financial performance, and the ability to compete with industry leaders in power generation and energy solutions. The Thiel is a key site in our portfolio, and we are very pleased with the progress. We expect to see strong returns from these investments, and the addition of the third genset will significantly enhance our operational capabilities,” said George Monteith, CEO of Allied Energy Corporation.

    Strategic Development at Gilmer Lease

    At our Gilmer lease, Allied Energy continues to optimize operations with the replacement of 116 pump jacks with smaller, more efficient units. We have also placed a packer in the well to cut off Mississippi water, enabling production from the Caddo and possibly the Strawn formations. One well is currently being converted, and depending on its performance, we plan to convert two additional wells in Q3 and Q4.

    Strategic Development at Gilmer Lease: Enhancing Efficiency & Maximizing Production

    At our Gilmer lease, Allied Energy continues to optimize operations by replacing 116 pump jacks with smaller, more efficient units. This upgrade reduces maintenance costs, energy consumption, and mechanical failures, ensuring greater long-term operational efficiency.

    Additionally, we have strategically placed a packer in the well to cut off Mississippi water intrusion, allowing uninterrupted production from the Caddo formation and potentially unlocking reserves from the Strawn formation. Currently, one well is undergoing conversion, and based on its performance, we plan to convert two additional wells in Q3 and Q4.

    Advantages of These Operational Activities

    • Improved Efficiency & Cost Reduction: Smaller, modern pump jacks consume up to 30% less energy than traditional units, lowering operating costs while maintaining steady production. (source: API)
    • Maximizing Reserve Potential: Unlocking secondary formations like Strawn could increase overall recoverable reserves, extending the well’s productive lifespan.
    • Environmental & Regulatory Benefits: Optimizing operations aligns with state and federal efficiency standards, reducing environmental impact and ensuring compliance with industry best practices. (source: EIA)

    “These strategic enhancements position Allied Energy for sustained growth, ensuring higher production efficiency, lower costs, and maximized asset value. We’re committed to ensuring that each well reaches its full potential. Our team is working diligently to implement improvements that will help us achieve optimal production from these properties,” said Monteith.

    Green Lease: Collaborating for Future Developments

    Allied Energy is in ongoing discussions with partners Petroloro, LLC and ORO Energy, LLC to determine future developments at our Green Lease. We are currently awaiting an outline of activities from ORO Energy, LLC and plan to finalize our strategic plans for this lease in Q2 2025. These discussions represent an exciting avenue for growth and diversification of our portfolio.

    Prometheus: Focused on Future SWD Development

    We are actively negotiating a new SWD lease and exploring potential new locations for drilling. In addition, our partnership with Miller ESP is evolving as we assess future development opportunities. We remain focused on ensuring long-term sustainability and profitability through strategic planning in the SWD space.

    Ongoing Research and Natural Gas Expansion

    Our research into future natural gas resources and the identification of expansion opportunities continues to move forward. We are exploring new locations to broaden our operations and strengthen our presence in areas that complement our existing project sites. These initiatives will further enhance Allied Energy’s ability to meet growing demand while maximizing shareholder value.

    Enerhash and Sloan Project: Continues to evolve in 2025

    Our successful stewardship of the Enerhash and Sloan projects will continue to pay dividends through 2025. However, we were advised in November 2024 that operational issues have caused delays in their scheduled payment. Despite this, Allied Energy anticipates returns from this venture in Q2 of 2025.

    Strategic Decision: Parting Ways with Energix for the Time Being

    After careful consideration, Allied Energy has made the strategic decision to cut ties with Energix for the time being due to missed critical, time-sensitive milestones. As more lucrative opportunities have emerged, we believe it is in the best interest of the company to focus our resources on these ventures. However, we remain open to the possibility of reigniting a relationship with Energix in the future should the opportunity align with our long-term goals.

    “We are constantly seeking the best opportunities to maximize value for our shareholders. While we have decided to part ways with Energix for now, we look forward to exploring future collaborations when the time is right,” said Monteith.

    Allied Energy Corporation is well-positioned for growth in 2025 and beyond, with a clear focus on increasing capacity, enhancing production, and making strategic partnerships. We remain committed to delivering value to our shareholders and continuing to build a diversified and robust energy portfolio.

    About AGYP:

    Allied Energy Corp. is an energy development and production company acquiring oil & gas reserves in some of the most prolific hydrocarbon bearing regions of the United States. The Company specializes in the business of reworking & re-completing ‘existing’ oil & gas wells located in the thousands of mature oil & gas producing fields across the United States. The Company applies its knowledge, experience, and effective well-remediation technologies to achieve higher production volumes, longer well life, and more efficient recovery of the proven and available oil and gas reserves in the fields/projects in which it has acquired an ownership interest. The Company will utilize updated technologies such as hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”), drilling of lateral (“horizontal”) legs in productive zones, and utilizing new cased hole electric logging to locate bypassed pays, all to enhance daily rates and oil & gas recoveries. By acquiring interests in a growing number of selected projects in various regions, Allied Energy Corp. is diversifying its exposure and effectively minimizing risk as it pursues corporate growth, top line & bottom-line revenues to the benefit of all stakeholders. There are proven, recoverable reserves contained in the many aging oil & gas fields that have been bypassed by companies moving away from these fields in search of deeper, more plentiful, but more costly reserves. The Company plans to concentrate on bypassed oil and gas as there is less competition and, as mentioned above, the costs are considerably less. Additionally, the company will acquire interests in marginal wells that can be acquired at minimal cost, of which there are 420,000 wells in the U.S. Quoting Barry Russell, President of the Independent Petroleum Association of America (“IPAA”) – “With approximately 20 percent of American oil production and 10 percent of American natural gas production coming from marginal wells, they are America’s true strategic petroleum reserve.”

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    WALTHAM, Mass., Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Infinidat, a leading provider of enterprise storage solutions, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named James “JT” Lewis, Infinidat’s Director of Channel Sales for EMEA and APJ, and Regional Sales Director for DACH and France, a 2025 CRN® Channel Leader for EMEA and APAC. This is the second consecutive year that JT Lewis is recognized by CRN as a regional Channel Leader.

    This CRN Channel Leaders list recognizes IT vendor and distribution executives who lead channel strategies for their organizations and drive innovations across channel initiatives in EMEA and APAC. The annual list honors channel leaders who are dedicated to building and evolving strategies that drive success for their channel partners and customers. As a highly respected Infinidat channel sales leader, Lewis strategically sets the channel agenda across the regions.

    “At Infinidat, we empower our channel partners to find and capitalize on new sales opportunities in the enterprise market. A focus on pursuing new customer accounts, embracing the use cases where we excel, and leveraging Infinidat’s award-winning differentiation is key to the growth of our partners’ businesses,” said JT Lewis, who provides channel sales leadership for both EMEA and APJ. “Not only is Infinidat’s Partner Program comprehensive, compelling and competitive, but we hold ourselves to the highest standard to provide unmatched white glove support to our partners. We make it easy to do business with Infinidat, and I predict our partners will increase their revenues in 2025 when they share this focus with us as a trusted partner.”

    Lewis is responsible for all of Infinidat’s sales activities through the channel, leading the way for further strategic growth in both EMEA and APJ. His role was expanded in July 2024 with a promotion because of his success in the channel. In his role as Channel Director, EMEA and APJ, he has been instrumental in successfully growing Infinidat’s business in these regions and increasing channel engagement, building a strong ecosystem of dedicated channel partners. Lewis drove new enhancements to the company’s Partner Program for EMEA and APJ in 2024 to augment the experience that channel partners have with Infinidat. Enhancements included new tiering levels for partners, an enhanced deal registration process, new backend rebates, and redesigned criteria for MDF.

    Lewis, who joined Infinidat in 2022 to head up channel sales for the company in EMEA and APJ, has extensive channel expertise and experience. Prior to Infinidat, he worked for Data Interchange as head of channel sales and was the strategy and growth officer for Altdata Technology Solutions, focusing on the cybersecurity market. He spent 15 years at EMC and RSA, based in London and Frankfurt, where he built up comprehensive experience in the recruitment, enablement, and leadership of channel partners and distributors.

    “The leaders we honor this year reimagine what’s possible in the channel and consistently deliver best-in-class programs that drive results for solution providers across EMEA,” said Victoria Pavlova, Editor, CRN UK, at The Channel Company. “Their ability to forge meaningful partnerships and craft dynamic strategies is transformative for providers and the channel. It’s a privilege to recognize their groundbreaking contributions and celebrate their role in shaping the future of the channel.”

    Recognized for the positive difference that he has made for channel partners since joining Infinidat, Lewis was one of CRN’s Regional Channel Chiefs last year when CRN UK launched their inaugural Regional Channel Chiefs list, which covers EMEA and APAC channel leaders. The 2025 accolade for Lewis expands recognition of him in APAC as well.

  • MIL-OSI: Attestiv Video Deepfake Detection Adds Context Analysis, Using AI to Further Uncover Deepfake Threats

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LEHI, Utah, Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence can significantly improve business efficiency. At the same time, AI makes generating deepfakes to commit fraud and support crime easier. AI-generated deepfakes are increasingly used to cheat consumers and businesses, costing more than $12 billion in 2023 and expected to rise to $40 billion in losses by 2027. To help organizations combat deepfakes, Attestiv has upgraded its video deepfake detection platform with new Context Analysis capabilities so anyone can identify deepfake video threats before they lead to losses or harm.

    Attestiv has added new Context Analysis features to Attestiv Video deepfake detection, using generative AI to identify digitally altered video content and uncover potential malicious deepfake scams. The new features examine a video file’s context, including metadata, descriptions, and transcript to detect signs of modifications that indicate deepfakes or malicious content.

    The threat landscape for AI-powered deepfakes continues to expand, rising 700% in 2023. Cybercriminals use generative AI to create fictitious social media posts for social engineering, spear phishing, and confidence and investment fraud. Cybercriminals are increasingly targeting businesses, creating phony celebrity endorsements or deepfake content to impersonate company executives, law enforcement, and authority figures to commit fraud. The new Context Analysis in Attestiv Video helps quickly assess the validity of any video, providing a summary of authenticity at a glance.

    “Attestiv represents a valuable tool in our arsenal to detect manipulated videos, particularly those created or edited using generative AI” said Steven Kline, founder of Pixel Analysis LLC a digital media forensics company based in Connecticut.

    “As the deepfake threat landscape expands, we continue to level the playing field with new capabilities to defend against deepfakes,” said Nicos Vekiarides, CEO of Attestiv. “Our new Context Analysis adds generative AI technology to better uncover deepfakes. We believe everyone should have access to tools to protect themselves from deepfakes, so we offer Attestiv Video with Context Analysis for consumers and businesses, starting at no cost.”

    Attestiv Video Deepfake Detection is available as a free, entry-level solution, enabling free scans of up to five videos per month. Those who need more scans and faster scan times can upgrade to Attestiv’s premium Video with enhanced scan fidelity, advanced analysis settings, and higher scan queue priority. Businesses likewise can upgrade to business or enterprise plans which offer even more features and dedicated or regional deployments that include APIs.
