About Fnality
Fnality is developing a series of regulated DLT-based wholesale payment systems. Each system, known as a Fnality Payment System (FnPS), is supervised by its respective central bank.

Within a FnPS, participants utilise a digital representation of funds held at central banks for instant wholesale payments. The launch of FnPSs in key jurisdictions will enable real-time cross-currency payments, and the secure atomic settlement of any delivery versus payment transactions around the clock. The credit quality of the central bank funds underpinning Fnality Payment Systems provides the missing ingredient for novel digital asset markets: institutional-grade digital cash.

In December 2023, the Sterling FnPS, previously recognised by HM Treasury as a systemically important payment system, commenced controlled live payments. Joining a handful of other regulated payment systems in the UK, it became the world’s first regulated DLT-based wholesale payment system, settling in a digital representation of funds held at central bank.

Fnality’s shareholders comprise: Banco Santander, BNY Mellon, Barclays, BNP Paribas, CIBC, Commerzbank, DTCC, Euroclear, Goldman Sachs, ING, KBC Group, Lloyds Banking Group, Mizuho Financial Group, MUFG Bank, Nasdaq Ventures, Nomura, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, State Street Corporation, UBS and WisdomTree.

ProjectDiscovery Introduces Neo Triage, Replacing Static Risk Scores with Proven Exploitability

Neo Triage reproduces every scanner, bug bounty and AI-generated finding against the real asset, then sets severity from proven impact

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ProjectDiscovery, a leader in vulnerability detection and autonomous security testing, today announced the general availability of Neo Triage: a new capability in its Neo platform that validates every incoming security finding by safely reproducing it against the live asset. Every verdict comes with the exact requests and responses that prove it, so teams can go straight to fixing what’s real.

Neo Triage gives every team one place to triage findings from every source, including:

Dynamic triage: Runs safe, non-destructive tests from an isolated sandbox to reproduce each finding against the live assetVerdicts with evidence: Marks every finding valid, duplicate, needs more information, informative, not applicable or spam, and attaches the exact requests and responses as proofSeverity from proven impact: Sets severity from the impact Neo proved and from the asset’s context, including the data behind it, how exposed it is and what else it reachesOne queue for every source: Pulls findings from HackerOne, GitHub security advisories, security mailboxes, Wiz, Qualys, Orca and any other tool with an API onto one boardFix and retest: Suggests a fix, drafts a reply to the researcher and retests automatically once the fix shipsInsights: Tracks open backlog, SLA status, time to zero, weekly remediation and the quality of each source

“Today, AI has made finding vulnerabilities cheap, and security teams spend hours reproducing each finding by hand,” said Rishi Sharma, CEO and Co-founder of ProjectDiscovery. “In the next 6-12 months, triage and the bottleneck it causes will be the biggest problem security teams will face. Scanners, AI code review and AI-assisted bug hunting now generate findings faster than teams can review them, leaving most organizations with thousands – or even millions, of open findings. The hard part now is deciding which findings matter, and a score can’t make that decision. Proof can. Neo Triage tests every finding against the real asset and hands the team a verdict with the evidence attached, so teams spend their time on decisions instead of on reproducing reports.”

Manual triage takes anywhere from 15 minutes to four hours per finding. ProjectDiscovery estimates that for a 100,000-finding backlog, Neo Triage turns roughly 50,000 hours of manual work, the equivalent of 25 people for a year, into about 8,300 hours of verdict review. Every Neo tier – including its free, community tier – includes the full Triage product.

Neo itself is free to get started, with monthly usage included and no time limit. Anyone can sign up and run useful workflows immediately, whether that means triaging findings from their own scanners or running a prompt that checks whether they’re exposed to a newly disclosed vulnerability. As their usage grows, teams can move to Pro or Enterprise tiers under zero data retention.

MEPSGEN Launches NanoCalibur® Mini for Small-Volume Nanoparticle Formulation

Published

By

Automated system enables rapid, reproducible formulation screening with minimal sample consumptionCompletes the NanoCalibur® Series (Mini, Lab, Pro, GMP), supporting a seamless scale-up path from early research to GMP manufacturing

BOSTON, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MEPSGEN US, Inc., a global innovator in drug delivery system platforms, today announced the launch of NanoCalibur® Mini, an automated system for small-volume nanoparticle formulation designed for early-stage drug discovery and development.

Nanoparticles are delivery vehicles that carry therapeutic payloads to target sites in the body, and they are central to next-generation modalities such as mRNA and gene therapies. Early-stage research requires repeated testing of many raw materials and process conditions, so the ability to generate fast, consistent results from limited material is essential.

NanoCalibur® Mini formulates lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and polymeric nanoparticles at volumes of 0.1–3 mL. Built on MEPSGEN‘s proprietary microfluidic technology, it delivers precise, stable microfluidic flow control for rapid and highly reproducible formulation. Researchers can choose between two single-use microfluidic cartridges, 0.1–0.4 mL and 0.4–3 mL, to match their application, from early formulation screening through a range of preclinical studies. By enabling many formulation conditions to be tested quickly with minimal material, Mini helps accelerate development timelines while reducing reagent consumption and experimental costs.

One production architecture, from discovery to GMP

With the addition of Mini, the NanoCalibur® Series now spans four systems (Mini, Lab, Pro, and GMP), allowing customers to select the right platform for their development stage and production scale.

The defining feature of the series is a consistent formulation environment at every scale. NanoCalibur® Mini to Lab and to GMP uses the same microfluidic mixing pattern, with the same structure and dimensions. Rather than redesigning the mixer or changing the formulation conditions as production grows, NanoCalibur® increases throughput by parallelizing identical mixing units. This design is intended to reduce the need for process re-optimization during scale-up and technology transfer, while preserving nanoparticle quality and batch-to-batch reproducibility.

Protecting payload integrity at scale

In large-scale nanoparticle manufacturing, the high flow rates required for throughput can generate shear forces that damage sensitive payloads such as mRNA and reduce the potency. The NanoCalibur® Series is engineered to maintain stable shear conditions as production scales, helping preserve payload integrity and deliver consistent nanoparticle quality. More importantly, preserving payload potency will have the high potential to reduce the dose required for therapeutic effect, possibly addressing the high-dosage toxicity such as LNPs.

Launch promotion

To mark the launch of NanoCalibur® Mini, MEPSGEN will run a series of promotional offers through the end of the year for research institutions and pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies evaluating the system. Details will be announced on the MEPSGEN website and the company’s official LinkedIn page.

“With NanoCalibur® Mini, we have extended our product lineup so that we can support customers more precisely at every stage, from early research through GMP manufacturing,” said YongTae Kim, CEO of MEPSGEN. “We will continue to broaden the applications and customer base of the NanoCalibur® Series and strengthen our position in the global nanomedicine manufacturing market.”

About MEPSGEN

MEPSGEN is a biotech company headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, with office in Cambridge, MA. The company was co-founded in 2019 by current CEO YongTae (Tony) Kim and Professor Robert Langer from MIT, a world-renowned expert in drug delivery and biomaterials who has pioneered numerous breakthroughs in controlled-release systems.

The company specializes in microphysiological system (MPS) and drug delivery system platforms based on its proprietary microfluidics technology. Its NanoCalibur® Series offers scalable nanoparticle formulation systems that support drug discovery, preclinical research, and GMP manufacturing, while its MPS platforms, including the MEPS-X Series and ProMEPS®, recreate the physiological function of human organs for New Approach Methodologies (NAMs). Together, they help pharmaceutical and biotech companies, universities, hospitals, and research institutions improve the efficiency and success rate of drug development.
