Solution helps small business clients proactively monitor check activity and prevent check fraud before it impacts their business

CLEVELAND, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — KeyBank (NYSE: KEY) today announced that Check Control for Business is fully available to KeyBank Business Online® clients. This service, which is unique to KeyBank as to the size of business it supports paired with its minimal cost, can help small business owners address the growing risk of check fraud with the ability to monitor check activity, quickly spot suspicious check transactions, and mark checks for return.

As fraud practices continue to evolve, small business owners are faced with increasing challenges in protecting their operations. According to the Federal Reserve’s Business Payments Study, 83% of small firms use paper checks for business payments, and more than $1 billion is recovered each year in counterfeit checks and money orders. Check Control for Business helps combat this by alerting clients to check activity so they can review and act if necessary.

“Check fraud continues to be a growing challenge for businesses as tactics evolve, and we know it’s top of the mind for many of our clients, especially small businesses, which are the backbone of our economy,” said Victor Alexander, Head of Key’s Consumer Bank. “At Key, we are committed to delivering for our clients by helping them stay ahead of emerging threats and protect what they’ve worked so hard to build. Check Control for Business is another way we’re empowering our clients with practical, effective tools to help prevent fraud and operate with confidence.”

Check Control for Business is a proactive alert system designed to help business owners monitor check activity from their online or mobile app. In addition to being a fraud mitigation solution, Check Control for Business is also a convenient check reconciliation tool that helps businesses keep track of checks moving through their account.

Check Control for Business empowers small business clients to:

View checks daily from a PC or mobile deviceConfirm check amounts, numbers, and payeesReturn suspicious or duplicate checks in just a few clicksStay in control with customized alerts and notification timing

Clients can self-enroll within digital banking with a few simple steps that can be completed in under one minute. Enrolled users receive alerts when checks are ready for review, allowing clients to detect and address potential check fraud before it impacts their business, stopping fraud before it’s too late. This can save a business from potentially thousands of dollars in losses and the cascade of problems that follow, like bounced vendor payments and disrupted cash flow.

Check Control for Business is available to eligible KeyBank Business Online clientsi (generally, small business clients with $10 million or less in revenue) at a cost of $5 per enrolled account per month. With the addition of this service, KeyBank continues to invest in digital capabilities that empower small businesses to operate more securely and efficiently in an increasingly complex financial environment.

“Check Control for Business is an exciting addition to our suite of digital capabilities and reflects our commitment to helping businesses of all sizes fight fraud, from emerging small businesses to large enterprises,” said Emily Gessner, Head of Commercial Digital for KeyBank. “Providing clients with simple, effective tools to help safeguard their businesses is critical to allowing them to focus on growth.”

Sharp IMS Revenue Contraction Brings Down Market

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — According to a recently published report from Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, security, networks, and data center industries, 5G Mobile Core Network (MCN) revenue in EMEA grew over 30 percent in 2Q 2026, contributing more revenue to the worldwide 5G MCN market than any other region.

“So far in 2026, eighty percent of the operators to have launched 5G Standalone (SA) networks for consumer services have been in Europe,” stated Siân Morgan, Sr. Director at Dell’Oro Group. “This helped EMEA 5G MCN revenue to reach a high-water mark in 2Q 2026, and we expect this region will keep expanding in the coming quarters.

“The growth in 5G MCN occurred despite an escalation in server prices causing mobile network operators to scrutinize the cost of network projects. On the other hand, IMS revenue contracted for the third quarter in a row, with most regions seeing a drop in Voice core revenue,” continued Morgan.

Additional highlights from the 2Q 2026 Mobile Core Network and Multi-Access Edge Computing Report include:

MCN market dynamics were stable, with Huawei, Ericsson and Nokia growing MCN revenue in alignment with total market expansion.
4G Wireless Packet Core revenue outpaced the market for the third quarter in a row, driven by mobile network operators that have not yet moved to 5G SA.
In nominal terms, revenue from 5G MCN has still not reached the levels achieved by 4G MCN, with the pressure to automate operations and grow ARPU counterbalanced by the rising cost of infrastructure.

Collaboration combines L2 Aviation’s integration and certification expertise with Gotonomi’s compact satellite communications technology to support reliable operations in remote and connectivity-constrained environments.

ERLANGER, Ky. and CAMBRIDGE, England and CINCINNATI, Aug. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — L2 Aviation, a global provider of avionics integration, engineering, certification, manufacturing, and aircraft modification services, today announced a strategic partnership with Gotonomi to advance integrated satellite connectivity solutions for uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operators throughout North America.

The partnership combines L2 Aviation’s aviation integration and certification capabilities with Gotonomi’s compact satellite communications technology. Together, the companies will help operators integrate reliable connectivity into UAV and AAM platforms operating in locations where cellular, Wi-Fi, and other terrestrial communications may be limited or unavailable.

ADVANCING CONNECTED UAV OPERATIONS

The planned solutions will use Gotonomi’s lightweight UAV communications technology and access to Viasat’s Velaris ecosystem, a satellite communications service developed for UAV and AAM operations.

L2 Aviation joined the Viasat Velaris ecosystem through Galaxy 1 Communications in May 2026, bringing nearly three decades of avionics integration, certification, and safety-critical aircraft modification experience to the growing uncrewed aviation market.

The partnership will support the integration of resilient connectivity for command and control, telemetry, operational information, and mission-critical data. L2 Aviation will provide the engineering, integration, installation, and certification support needed to incorporate Gotonomi technology into customer aircraft and operating platforms.

“UAV and Advanced Air Mobility platforms cannot reach their full operational potential when connectivity, aircraft integration, certification, and deployment are treated as separate challenges,” said Tony Bailey, President and Chief Operating Officer of L2 Aviation. “This partnership brings those disciplines together through a complete, aircraft-level solution. Gotonomi’s leading-edge satellite communications technology, Viasat’s Velaris service, and L2 Aviation’s engineering and certification capabilities create an integrated path from system architecture and installation through regulatory approval and operational deployment. The result addresses a critical industry need for reliable command and control, telemetry, and mission data connectivity, especially when aircraft operate beyond the reach of terrestrial networks.”

The partnership creates a coordinated path for UAV manufacturers, operators, and mission-system providers seeking satellite-connected solutions that address aircraft integration, regulatory approval, and operational deployment.

“Energy and infrastructure operators increasingly need aircraft that can remain connected well beyond the reach of traditional communications networks,” said Matthew Hill, General Manager at Gotonomi. “Combining Gotonomi’s compact communications technology with L2 Aviation’s integration and certification experience creates a compelling pathway for operators looking to scale UAV missions into more demanding environments.”

EXPANDING UAV CAPABILITIES ACROSS THE ENERGY SECTOR

L2 Aviation sees significant opportunities for satellite-connected UAVs across multiple industries including energy, government, and others, where operators routinely inspect and service assets across large, remote, or difficult-to-access areas.

“Reliable connectivity is one of the fundamental requirements for expanding what unmanned aircraft can accomplish,” said Jeff Rex, CRO of L2 Aviation “Our goal is to provide customers with more than another piece of hardware. L2 can take the connectivity technology, integrate it with mission-critical systems, address the certification and installation requirements, and deliver a complete solution that leverages the heritage of decades of experience with safety certified satellite networks.”

Satellite connectivity also has the potential to expand the effectiveness of Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations by maintaining communications beyond the practical limits of conventional terrestrial networks.
