“Absolute Sale” Delivers Increased Velocity, Higher Engagement, Better Results

CARMEL, Ind., June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — OPENLANE, Inc. (NYSE: KAR), a leading operator of digital marketplaces for wholesale used vehicles, announces Absolute Sale, a new sale format that enables sellers to signal they are committed to selling a vehicle to the highest offer that day. The exclusive feature increases buyer confidence and visibility, boosting engagement and optimizing seller returns.

 

“With just the click of a button, sellers can indicate they are committed to selling a vehicle that same day, and buyers looking to stock their lots can quickly discern who’s ready to deal,” said James Coyle, EVP and president, North American marketplaces at OPENLANE. “Buyers also save time, knowing that if they submit the highest bid, the seller will honor the win and sell the car — it’s easier than ever for buyers to feel confident in their wholesale bidding and buying strategy. For sellers, Absolute Sale rapidly and efficiently yields more eyeballs, offers and proceeds. And that velocity generates results: after activating the feature, sellers have seen sale prices increase by an average of $500 — and for vehicles over $20,000, by an average of $1,000.”

Absolute Sale is available on all dealer-consigned vehicles in OPENLANE’s US marketplace, and can be activated by the seller during the sale day at any time after 9 a.m. ET. Vehicles launched in Absolute Sale mode indicate the seller will sell to the highest offer received that day, and are featured prominently in a dedicated carousel with a special badge and timer that increase buyer visibility and engagement. Buyers can also filter for Absolute Sale vehicles, enabling them to more confidently focus their sourcing and negotiating on vehicles that sellers have committed to selling that same day.

“Our customers’ success is our success, and Absolute Sale certainly delivers on that promise,” said Shiv Dutt, SVP and president, US marketplace at OPENLANE. “Like many of our most transformative innovations, Absolute Sale had its genesis in customer conversations focused on understanding how OPENLANE can help ease persistent industry pain points. Everybody wins: buyers know their time negotiating won’t be wasted, and sellers can feel confident they’re getting the very best market value.”

In HelloNation, Veterinary Experts Drs. Brandon and Paola Beebout Explain How Pet Rehab Relieves Pain and Builds Strength

Published

The article explains how veterinary rehabilitation supports recovery, improves mobility, and helps pets maintain long-term function after injury or illness.

KEARNEY, Neb., Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What are the real benefits of pet rehabilitation for pets recovering from surgery, injury, or chronic health conditions? HelloNation answers that question in a HelloNation article featuring insights from Veterinary Experts Drs. Brandon and Paola Beebout of Kearney, Nebraska. The article explains how pet rehab combines targeted exercises, therapeutic treatments, and medical oversight to improve healing, restore mobility, and enhance quality of life for animals at every stage of recovery.

The HelloNation article explains that rehabilitation is more than a way to help pets recover after surgery. It describes a personalized process that addresses pain, weakness, balance, and mobility while helping pets regain confidence in their movement. By tailoring rehabilitation plans to each animal’s condition and progress, veterinary teams can support safer, more effective healing and reduce the likelihood of future injuries.

According to the article, pet rehab often includes carefully supervised therapeutic exercises designed to rebuild muscle strength and improve joint function. Activities such as controlled leash walking, range-of-motion exercises, and core strengthening help pets regain movement while protecting healing tissues. The article notes that these exercises are adjusted throughout recovery to match each pet’s changing abilities and medical needs.

The article also describes several supportive therapies that work alongside exercise to improve comfort and healing. Hydrotherapy allows dogs to exercise with less stress on their joints while strengthening muscles and improving endurance. Laser therapy is highlighted as another treatment that can reduce discomfort and support tissue healing. Together, these therapies help pets participate more comfortably in the rehabilitation process while promoting steady progress.

Beyond post-surgical recovery, the HelloNation article explains that rehabilitation can play an important role in managing chronic orthopedic and neurological conditions. Pets living with arthritis, vestibular disease, or other progressive disorders may benefit from exercises that improve balance, coordination, and stability. The article describes how these therapies help many animals maintain independence and enjoy daily activities for longer periods despite ongoing medical challenges.

Veterinary Experts Drs. Brandon and Paola Beebout also emphasize in the article that successful rehabilitation extends beyond appointments at the veterinary clinic. Pet owners become active participants by learning safe techniques to continue prescribed exercises at home. The article explains that this partnership helps reinforce progress made during therapy sessions while reducing the risk of setbacks or re-injury between visits.

The HelloNation article further notes that regular monitoring allows rehabilitation plans to evolve as pets improve. Adjustments to exercise intensity, treatment frequency, and therapeutic goals ensure that each stage of recovery reflects the pet’s current condition rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach. This individualized care helps maximize both comfort and long-term function.

Throughout the article, Veterinary Experts Drs. Brandon and Paola Beebout demonstrate how pet rehab serves a wide range of patients, from animals recovering after orthopedic surgery to those living with chronic disease. The article concludes that combining medical supervision with customized therapy and owner involvement creates stronger outcomes by helping pets regain mobility, manage pain, and maintain healthier, more active lives.

Chainguard Joins AWS Security Hub Extended as Supply Chain Partner

Chainguard Libraries enables AWS customers to protect open source dependencies with malware-free packages rebuilt from verified source

KIRKLAND, Wash., Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Chainguard, the trusted source for open source, today announced its availability through AWS Security Hub Extended as a Partner in the new Supply Chain category. Through AWS Security Hub Extended, customers can access Chainguard Libraries to help protect against software supply chain threats by replacing public open source dependencies with malware-free, secure-by-default alternatives. This creates a simpler path to reducing software supply chain risk by integrating trusted open source software directly into customers’ existing Amazon Web Services (AWS) security operations workflows.

Addressing a growing attack surface in open source software

As AI-assisted attacks continue to increase in frequency and sophistication, organizations face growing risk from compromised open source packages entering development environments. Tools that scan packages at build or runtime are not designed to keep up with the threat. More than 98% of malware ships as a pre-built package with no matching source code — a malicious version goes live, gets pulled into builds around the world within hours, and the damage is done well before any scanner flags it. Chainguard Libraries secures dependencies before they enter customer environments, helping teams move from reactive detection to proactive prevention. Instead of pulling packages directly from public repositories, organizations consume open source packages rebuilt from verified source code in the Chainguard Factory, the company’s isolated build environment. This approach helps prevent malicious packages from reaching developers, CI/CD pipelines, and production systems.

“Open source is the foundation the world’s software is built on. When that ecosystem gets compromised, the blast radius is enormous,” said Patrick Donahue, Senior Vice President of Product, Chainguard. “AWS adding us as a partner for supply chain security with the Extended plan is a real signal that the industry is treating this problem with the seriousness it deserves. Chainguard delivers that protection to customers with open source that’s trustworthy by default.”

Chainguard’s inclusion in AWS Security Hub Extended allows AWS customers to:

Purchase Chainguard Libraries through their existing AWS contract with no long-term commitment and Enterprise Discount Program (EDP) discounts automatically applied;Reduce procurement complexity while preserving direct access to each provider’s domain expertise by consolidating solution usage into one bill;View centralized findings based on the Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework (OCSF) alongside AWS and partner security findings within Security Hub;And receive unified Level 1 from AWS for Enterprise Support customers.

Chainguard’s role in AWS Security Hub Extended

Through AWS Security Hub Extended, Chainguard Libraries serves as a malware-free catalog of language dependencies, replacing reliance on public registries like PyPI, Maven Central, and npm. Every package is rebuilt from verified source in Chainguard’s SLSA Level 3 build environment and delivered with signed provenance and SBOMs. By preventing malicious packages from entering customer environments and reducing exposure to known Python vulnerabilities, Chainguard helps organizations strengthen software supply chain security while maintaining developer productivity.

AWS customers can access Chainguard Libraries through AWS Security Hub Extended. Log into the AWS Security Hub console and select the Extended plan. Choose Chainguard and follow the guided onboarding experience to subscribe and configure Chainguard Libraries within your environment.
