BOSTON, July 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Cybercrimes like dealer system hacks, identity theft, and breaches are wreaking havoc on the auto industry. As the industry becomes more technology-driven, increasingly sophisticated cybercriminals are finding more opportunities to strike. In fact, the auto sector is now the third most targeted behind healthcare and financial services. The recent attacks against Findlay Auto Group and CDK Global are just two of many examples that have brought attention to the industry’s vulnerabilities.

A number of regulations have been issued to ensure dealers adequately protect consumer data. In particular, the Red Flags Rule requires dealers to implement programs to protect customers from potential identity theft and fraud.

That’s why Aura, the all-in-one consumer online safety solution, today announced its partnership with Mosaic Compliance Services to provide identity protection to anyone who gives dealers personally identifiable information (PII) during the car-buying process.

Mosaic is a leader in helping dealerships nationwide implement legally defensible and insurable compliance systems. By combining Aura’s award-winning identity theft protection services with Mosaic’s industry-leading fully managed compliance solutions, this partnership helps dealers adhere to the Red Flags Rule regulations, mitigate risk, and provide proactive protection from cybercrime for their roofs, shoppers, and buyers.

“We partnered with Aura so that every consumer, shopper, or buyer gets identity theft protection simply because they gave the dealer their non-public personal information,” said James S. Ganther, Esq., CEO at Mosaic Compliance Services. “Through this collaboration, we’re able to both provide peace of mind to buyers whose information is collected and ease the compliance burden for dealers–providing everything from counsel on policies to operational improvements, audits, and consumer online protections.”

Aura plays a crucial role in the mitigation piece of compliance with the Red Flags Rule. With these regulations, auto dealers are now obligated to protect the personal information provided to them. By offering Aura to consumers, dealers help proactively mitigate fraud by monitoring for instances of identity theft, credit misuse, and financial fraud.

“With cyber attacks, scams, and breaches happening every day, car buyers are aware of the risk associated with providing their personal information to companies,” said Scott Hudson, Senior Vice President of Sales at Aura. We know that 84% of customers say they would not buy another vehicle from a dealership if a breach compromised their data. By offering Aura’s identity protection solution to every consumer who provides personally identifiable information, dealers can earn trust upfront in the car-buying process.”

Aura works with hundreds of dealerships across the U.S. to offer identity and fraud protection to hundreds of thousands of consumers. If you’re interested in partnering with Aura and Mosaic Compliance Services, contact autodealer@aura.com.

From China Mobile’s Call Upgrade to the Commercial Launch of “Calling + AI” by Leading Operators: AI Is Reshaping the Value of Native Calling

Published

July 25, 2026

By

BEIJING, July 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On June 15, 2026, China Mobile announced a comprehensive upgrade to its traditional calling services, ushering in a next-generation calling experience defined by HD, intelligence, and security. This milestone not only marks a major leap in telecommunication innovation but also reflects a global, inevitable shift: the transformation of basic communication into intelligent, inclusive services.

Breaking Experience Barriers and Redefining the Paradigm of Basic Calling

Overcoming the limitations of traditional, voice-only interactions, China Mobile has leveraged its mature VoLTE/VoNR network foundation to deeply integrate AI models with HD audio and video capabilities. Without requiring users to change their phones or SIM cards, seven core AI functions are now seamlessly embedded into the native dialer interface.

These upgrades include Live Captions bridge communication gaps for the elderly and hearing-impaired; HD video calls and AI noise reduction create a crystal-clear, immersive calling experience; AI anti-fraud intercepts high-risk calls in real time to safeguard users’ assets. Furthermore, the introduction of Data Channel (DC) technology and visual call menus transforms standard calls into agile, interactive service windows, enabling multi-party collaboration and seamless business transactions directly within the call. Through this initiative, China Mobile has successfully evolved traditional calls from a mere voice pipeline into a secure, integrated information hub.

“Calling + AI” Becomes a Strategic Consensus Among Global Leading Operators

From a global perspective, China Mobile’s call upgrade is not an isolated milestone, but a microcosm of the global telecommunications industry’s broader transformation. Throughout 2026, major operators worldwide are accelerating the commercial deployment of “Calling + AI” solutions:

Deutsche Telekom launched Magenta AI, leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance calling across all scenarios;T-Mobile US introduced a network-side, real-time translation service covering over 80 languages, effectively breaking down cross-border communication barriers;Saudi stc rolled out English-Arabic bilingual simultaneous interpretation, which has now entered large-scale commercial trials;South Korea’s LG U+ launched its ixi-O intelligent calling assistant, shifting the user experience from passive responses to proactive smart interactions and earning three prestigious GLOMO industry awards.

The synchronized efforts of these global leaders confirm that basic calling services have officially entered a new era of AI integration. Deeply empowered by artificial intelligence, “Calling + AI” has become the definitive blueprint for the intelligent transformation of the global telecommunications industry. As operators continue to refine these native capabilities, the traditional voice network is poised to reclaim its position as the most secure, ubiquitous, and valuable entry point in the AI era.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NAVER, Brookfield and NVIDIA announced an expansion of Korea’s sovereign AI factory infrastructure. New investments will increase the initial NVIDIA DSX™ AI factory deployment from 55 megawatts to 200 megawatts.

Announced during Korea President Jae Myung Lee’s AI Summit visit to San Francisco, the planned 200-megawatt expansion will be built with the NVIDIA DSX platform at NAVER’s GAK Sejong hyperscale data center in Sejong, South Korea. The expanded infrastructure will provide Korea- and U.S.- based AI innovators with access to production-scale AI compute for building next-generation models, agents and AI-powered services.

Under the terms of the agreements, Brookfield will fund up to $9 billion as the exclusive capital partner, NVIDIA will invest $1 billion and NAVER will fund the remaining amount to finance the $10 billion project.

This builds on NAVER’s June announcement to extend its GAK Sejong data center with NVIDIA DSX, with a long-term path to gigawatt-scale sovereign AI infrastructure serving Korea’s enterprises, industries, government organizations and global AI cloud customers. Combining Brookfield’s capital with NVIDIA’s computing platform, the investment supports NAVER’s AI factory deployment.

“NVIDIA’s strategic investment and our infrastructure supply agreement with Brookfield have propelled NAVER’s vision for the AI Factory business into a robust execution phase,” said Haejin Lee, Founder and Chairman of NAVER. “Leveraging the solid partnerships with our global partners, we will drive technological innovation, foster a sovereign AI ecosystem, and spearhead efforts to strengthen South Korea’s AI competitiveness.” 

AI Factory Expansion and Open Model Collaboration to Fuel AI Innovators

NAVER, as an NVIDIA Cloud Partner, provides deep expertise in operating hyperscale infrastructure powered by the full-stack NVIDIA AI platform. The 200-megawatt AI factory, featuring NVIDIA Vera Rubin and Blackwell platforms, will establish a dedicated resource pool for emerging AI companies, providing the compute, software and support needed to develop and deploy competitive AI models and applications at scale.

This expanded infrastructure also builds on NAVER and NVIDIA’s collaboration on open model development for agentic and physical AI. NAVER is advancing its HyperCLOVA X models to be based on NVIDIA Nemotron™ 3 Ultra open models with its proprietary data and training expertise. NAVER is also the first Korean company to join the NVIDIA Nemotron Coalition, contributing to open model development across pretraining, post-training and reinforcement learning.

NAVER plans to launch an AI agent platform in Korea in the second half of the year, powered by NVIDIA Agent Toolkit software including NVIDIA NemoClaw™ blueprints. NAVER is also developing a Seoul World Model using proprietary urban street-view and spatial modeling data, built on NVIDIA Cosmos™ world foundation models.
