Welcomes industry expert and former analyst Jon Oltsik to its Advisory Board and continues disrupting the market’s status quo

SAN FRANCISCO, June 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Abstract Security, crafted by category creators who have consistently redefined the cybersecurity landscape, today announced general availability (GA) of its revolutionary platform designed for the future of security operations. Already in use by customers, Abstract’s platform helps security analysts and operations teams navigate the complexities of data pipelines, increase security effectiveness and lower costs.

“Since the inception of Abstract, we’ve been working tirelessly to combat the challenges of security operations today, offering a tool that focuses on the data that matters and ties security back to business value,” said Ryan Clough, co-founder and CPO of Abstract Security. “With the explosion of data over the last few years, customers need a more customizable approach that moves beyond saved searches and dashboards. We’re excited to reach this GA milestone as we bring the future security operations platform to more customers.”

A key feature of Abstract’s platform is the Abstract Security Engineer (ASE), which leverages a combination of AI, expert systems, machine learning, and subject matter expertise and connects to data sources across an organization, delivering instant data and detection capabilities. The security data fabric approach enables:

Advanced analytics and correlation: Abstract’s platform enables customers to surface threats across their enterprise and cloud infrastructure in real-time. It’s powered by out-of-the-box detection content provided by the Abstract research team, which is purpose-built for cloud and SaaS threats.Security pipelines: With data routing, transformation and enrichment that is geared for security telemetry, customers can reduce the volume and cost of log data sent to their SIEM. A single point of collection enables drag-and-drop routing of data to any number of sources, including cloud storage, SIEMs, and data platforms.Optimized storage: 95% of collected log data is not usable for detection. Abstract’s platform intelligently divides hot, warm, and cold storage tiers to automatically optimize storage and compute costs and make the data relevant to security analytics accessible via instant queries.

Since emerging from stealth and announcing its Seed funding earlier this year, Abstract Security has expanded its global footprint, hired an experienced technology leader as CTO, and appointed a long-time industry expert to its Board of Directors. To aid in the continued development of the Abstract Security platform, the team has added visionary and innovator Jon Oltsik to its Advisory Board. With over 35 years of technology industry experience, Jon founded the cybersecurity practice at the Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) in 2003 and has spent the subsequent 20 years studying cyber threats, cyber-risk management, technical defenses, and CISO strategies. Jon is widely recognized as an expert in all aspects of cybersecurity and is often called upon to help customers understand a CISO’s perspective. Jon is a founding member of the Cybersecurity Canon, a project dedicated to identifying a list of must-read books for all cybersecurity practitioners, and he was named one of the top 100 cybersecurity influencers by Onalytica.

“Defending against cyber-attacks is more difficult today than it’s ever been. With the complexity of infrastructure and sheer volume of data that organizations must manage, today’s security analytics teams are tired of the status quo,” said Jon Oltsik, Advisory Board member of Abstract Security. “Working as an analyst and advisor has given me a unique perspective into the pain points of industry leaders, and that’s why I’m so excited about the unique approach that Abstract Security is taking to solve the problems in the SIEM marketplace, and have the opportunity to support and guide the team as they grow.”

In the past several months, Abstract has also been recognized by notable industry awards including a Global Infosec Award for “Pioneering Cybersecurity Startup” at RSA Conference 2024, and most recently, a 2024 Cybersecurity Excellence Award in both “Best Cybersecurity Startup” and “SIEM” categories. The team’s commitment to crafting an excellent platform for customers, keeping their sights on innovation, and thoughtful leadership won Abstract the award in both categories, beating out more than 600 applicants.

“What If We Had This in 2020?” Data Viz 4 Good Bridges the Fortune 100 Data Gap for the Social Sector

Published

May 5, 2026

By

SAN FRANCISCO, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Data Viz 4 Good (DV4G) today announced the launch of its ImpactIQ platform, a breakthrough SaaS solution transforming how the social sector visualizes mission-critical data.

For founders Tyra Jean and Vanessa Francesca Ortega, both Ronald E. McNair Baccalaureate Scholars, the mission began with a pivotal question: “What if we had Data Viz 4 Good at Syracuse University back in 2020?”

CEO Tyra Jean—a former Public Policy & International Affairs Fellow at UC Berkeley and current D.S.W. candidate at the University of Southern California—developed the concept after bridging two vastly different worlds. “I worked as a data consultant for Fortune 100 companies and saw firsthand the massive gap in data infrastructure across the nonprofit sector,” said Jean. “We’re bringing enterprise-grade technology to the organizations that need it most.”

This vision, combined with the duo’s technical pedigree, has positioned them as emerging leaders in the next generation of AI-powered social infrastructure and frontrunners for Forbes’ 30 Under 30.

The platform’s technical moat is anchored by the COO Vanessa Francesca Ortega — Posse Alumni, SU Remembrance Scholar, and Newhouse’s Dean Branham Scholar. She is the founder & CEO of Civic Trust Systems, the core operating system powering municipal-scale AI platforms, including HellogovAI Inc.

“ImpactIQ is built on infrastructure originally designed to power secure, large-scale government service delivery,” said Ortega. “Through Civic Trust Systems, I developed the AI delivery model and user experience architecture that enables platforms like Hellogov. We are now applying that same level of security and privacy to the social sector.”

By leveraging Civic Trust Systems, DV4G delivers government-grade security, privacy-first data handing, and scalable AI intelligence— without the complexity of cost of traditional enterprise systems.

As a free resource for the sector, the founders co-host a DV4G Podcast on Instagram (@DataViz4GoodHQ). The next episode explores how ImpactIQ’s privacy-first architecture not only protects sensitive community data but also strengthens grant readiness and institutional trust.

DV4G is currently scaling ImpactIQ for global researchers, nonprofits, and mission-driven organizations seeking to modernize how they measure and communicate impact.

Pirelli further strengthens its commitment to the country. Investment and output expansion details will be communicated in the coming months following the finalization of the development plans

MILAN and WASHINGTON, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Pirelli is reinforcing its long-term commitment to the United States with a key step in its product and industrial strategy. The Georgia plant, already dedicated to the most technologically advanced products for the U.S. market—both in the High-Value segment and in Motorsport—will be further enhanced by the production of connected tires featuring Cyber™ Tyre technology. This development highlights the strategic importance of the U.S. for Pirelli’s global growth roadmap, strengthening the company’s integrated industrial and technological presence in the country.

The announcement comes as Pirelli participates in the SelectUSA Investment Summit, the flagship event promoted by the U.S. Department of Commerce, where Cyber™ Tyre is being showcased as a core innovation shaping the future of smart mobility. 

Cyber™ Tyre is the world’s first hardware-and-software system capable of collecting data and information from sensors embedded in tires, processing them through Pirelli’s proprietary software and algorithms, and, by communicating in real time with the vehicle’s electronics, enabling new functionalities integrated with driving and control systems to enhance the driving experience and increase safety levels, as well as supporting connected infrastructure.

In a highly advanced market such as the United States, where digital and smart mobility solutions are rapidly expanding, Cyber™ Tyre represents a distinctive competitive advantage for Pirelli.

At SelectUSA, Cyber™ Tyre was showcased at the Georgia State booth, a particularly meaningful presence given Pirelli’s industrial footprint in the state, where it has been established for more than 20 years.

“The start of Cyber™ Tyre production in our Rome, Georgia plant is a significant milestone for Pirelli in this country,” said Claudio Zanardo, CEO of Pirelli North America. “It reflects our commitment to bringing advanced technologies like Cyber™ Tyre closer to the market, further strengthening our industrial footprint and innovation capabilities in the United States.”

To further enhance the role of Rome as a high-tech production site, Pirelli is finalizing the introduction of the latest version of the MIRS (Modular Integrated Robotized System) production process. It will be the most advanced manufacturing process for high-end, premium production within the entire Pirelli Group, and is exclusive to the Georgia factory. The process further enhances robotized production capabilities, increasing productivity, flexibility, and quality.

It is a highly digitalized system that enables a direct link between product design and its industrial application.

This development lays the groundwork for growth in Pirelli’s production capacity in Rome, an integral part of the Group’s industrial development plans, and will further strengthen Pirelli’s presence in the United States—one of its most important and strategic markets.

The Rome, Georgia, plant specializes in high-value tire production for the North American market. It also hosts a dedicated R&D center, further strengthening its role in technological development and product innovation.

The facility is recognized for its responsible sourcing practices, including the use of FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council®)-certified natural rubber, underscoring the company’s broader environmental commitment across its supply chain.
