Total Economic Impact study provides framework for evaluating the impact of Netskope security service edge (SSE) to help customers modernize infrastructure, realize fast financial returns, and grow and achieve critical business outcomes

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Netskope, a leader in secure access service edge (SASE), today released a new commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on The Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) of Netskope Security Service Edge (SSE). The study revealed that the key benefits of adopting Netskope translated to quantifiable hard cost reductions through network security infrastructure consolidation and modernization. For the customers surveyed, the results included a 109% return on investment (ROI) for a composite organization representative of interviewed customers over a three-year period, as well as a payback period of less than six months.

Forrester Consulting conducted the Netskope SSE Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study based on interviews with organizations using Netskope SSE, reflecting the real-world financial impact of the technology investment and its resulting business value. Forrester then built a composite organization representative of interviewed customers that prospective customers can use as a framework for evaluating SSE solutions. The composite customer profile is based on a multi-national multi-billion-dollar organization where 50% of the employees and contractors work remotely, the networking and security team has 30 full-time equivalent (FTEs) employees, and the organization grows through mergers and acquisitions at a rate of three per year.

The study revealed numerous benefits of implementing Netskope SSE, including key drivers of the economic impact. While individual results vary, the study indicated the benefits below for the composite organization based on customer responses to the study:

Consolidated network security infrastructure resulting in $5.4M in cost reductions over three years. The economic impact resulted in decommissioning legacy data centers, physical equipment, and hardware, including sunsetting legacy DLP tools, SWG technology, firewalls, and related hardware and circuitry.

Improved network availability, performance, and user productivity resulting in approximately $1.8M in cost reductions over three years among the customers surveyed. According to the study, “The senior enterprise architecture manager in the advertising industry said that their organization validated a network performance study proving that Netskope clocked lower latencies than other SSE vendors.” Customers reduced the number of hours during which network services were effectively offline, resulting in a 10% increase in uptime for core network services, plus reducing the amount of time it takes for users to access network services, data, and applications.

Increased network and security operation effectiveness resulting in $1.5M in cost savings over three years. This enabled operational resources to be 30-35% more productive among the customers surveyed, streamlined network operations including faster user provisioning, and enabled the allocation of a considerable number of resources to higher-value data security engineering activities. Customers also reported reducing engineering labor by more than 75% and decreased the patch SLA from weeks to effectively on-demand.

Specific customer input used to inform the composite customer profile used in the framework include:

An enterprise architecture manager in the advertising industry interviewed by Forrester reported how their organization’s Netskope SSE solution would allow it to save over $10 million by decommissioning legacy solutions.A vice president of infrastructure in the technology industry estimated that their organization avoided $250,000 annually in vendor maintenance contracts for firewalls, another $100,000 annually in vendor service agreements for servers and switching, and 1.5 full time employees dedicated to vendor and solution management. They specified, “Those are significant savings that I had never even thought of before going through the process.”

The Netskope One platform features a fully converged SSE solution that enables organizations with hybrid cloud environments to consolidate and secure access to the web, cloud and SaaS services, and private apps from any location. Unique to Netskope is its NewEdge network, the largest private security cloud in the world, which enables a high-performance user experience with no impact on security protection.

“With legacy network security solutions becoming more ineffective, inefficient, and costly to operate and maintain, CIOs, Networking, Infrastructure and Operations (NI&O), and Security leaders alike continue to seek out ways to modernize. Their preferred partners consolidate and demonstrably reduce costs, while accelerating time to value and measurable agility for their business,” said Dave Klippel, vice president of business value services, Netskope. “We are pleased to represent the success stories of our customers in this Forrester TEI study, as it provides a quantifiable business case for Netskope SSE using real examples of customer-verified, true hard cost reductions.”

Additional key findings from the TEI study regarding how enterprises can accelerate business value with Netskope SSE include:

Accelerated time to value for mergers and acquisitions by:Streamlining M&A labor and avoiding many legacy M&A efforts due to the nature of the cloud-native SSE solutionEnhancing app discovery capabilitiesStreamlined remote experience by:Allowing for a rearchitected approach to securing remote user access to internet-facing appsEnabling new delivery models for transformative approaches that helped to streamline, improve, and innovate the remote and hybrid work experienceGenerated IT help desk optimization savings by:Reducing networking and security support ticket volumesStreamlining ticket resolution effortsReduced risk and costs of a material breach savings by:Reducing risk of malware infection, data loss, and other threatsImproving visibility with better contextStronger security controls to block risky user behaviorMeasurable reductions in security incident volumes and average resolution times

BitradeX BXC First Two Subscription Rounds Sell Out, Total Subscriptions Exceed 14M USDT

Published

on

By

LONDON, May 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — BitradeX Capital’s ecosystem equity token, BXC, has completed its first and second subscription rounds, selling a total of 50 million BXC with subscriptions exceeding 14 million USDT. The first round sold out in 90 seconds, while the second closed within 48 hours.

While the fundraising size is not unusually large by crypto standards, the structure of the sale has attracted market attention. The first two rounds were not open to the public, but limited to high-tier BitradeX users. The first round was available only to V5 users and above, while the second round expanded access to V3 users and above.

According to BitradeX’s tier system, V3+ users typically have higher recurring investment activity through AiBot, longer platform usage history, and stronger ecosystem participation. This means the early BXC allocation was absorbed mainly by the platform’s internal high-value user base, rather than short-term speculative participants.

This approach differs from many token fundraising campaigns that prioritize broad public participation and market hype. BitradeX instead adopted a more selective, staged model, gradually lowering the participation threshold while keeping the sale within its active ecosystem community.

BXC is positioned as more than a standard platform token. Its value framework is linked to BitradeX Capital’s broader ecosystem, including its exchange business, AiBot quantitative strategies, BTX Card payments, and Labs incubation platform. Public information indicates that BXC holders may receive staking rewards, benefit from ecosystem buybacks and burns, and gain priority access to Launchpad projects and governance participation.

The third subscription round is launched on April 30 at $0.35 USDT per BXC, with a total supply of 100 million BXC. It is now open to users participating in AiBot recurring investment. The fourth round price is expected to rise to $0.45 USDT.

The long-term value of BXC will ultimately depend on the growth of BitradeX’s underlying businesses, including exchange profitability, AiBot user expansion, and BTX Card adoption. However, the rapid sellout of the first two rounds suggests that BitradeX’s core user base has already shown strong confidence in the ecosystem’s future.

South and East Asia identified as hotspots of global warming related impacts on male fertility

Published

on

By

BEIJING, May 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A major new study has shown that South and East Asia dominate patterns of global warming related decline in male fertility with the strongest and most consistent evidence coming from India, Pakistan and the southern parts of China.

The effects of increased environmental temperatures on male reproductive health include declining sperm concentration and motility and increased sperm DNA fragmentation, or genetic damage that can hinder fertilisation and embryo development.

Male related factors account for around 50 per cent of infertility cases around the world and the impact of rising ambient heat on semen parameters raises serious implications across wide areas of Asia where total fertility rates are in serious decline.

Outcomes of the study undertaken by the Taiwan IVF Group and Ton Yen General Hospital, Taiwan (China) in collaboration with Stanford University (USA) are being presented at the 2026 Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE) in Beijing.

Research principal and Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor at Stanford University, Dr Jack Yu Jen Huang, MD, PhD, FACOG said: “Given the temperature sensitivity of spermatogenesis, even modest increases in ambient temperature could have cumulative, population-level effects over time.

“As global warming accelerates, male reproductive health may represent an emerging climate sensitive public health concern.”

The testes function optimally at temperatures lower than the internal body heat level, and previous studies have shown elevated scrotal or ambient temperatures can impair sperm production.

The latest research explored global patterns to reveal comparative data across regions. It is based on a systematic review of international studies on temperature exposure and semen parameter trends between 2000 and 2024. Artificial intelligence algorithms and machine learning tools were applied to extract key variables including geographic regions and semen outcomes.

Dr Huang said studies examining occupational heat exposure alone were excluded from the analysis as they reflected localised, job-specific conditions rather than broader climatic trends.

“Our findings therefore represent population level climate associated temperature effects including consistent seasonal variations showing poor semen quality parameters in warmer periods.”

The global patterns on temperature associated lower sperm concentration and motility show South and East Asia as major hot spots of concern followed by the Middle East, Europe and North America.

“South and East Asia are likely more affected due to a combination of factors including higher baseline ambient temperatures and rapid urbanisation that contribute to greater cumulative heat stress on spermatogenesis,” Dr Huang explained.

“With ongoing global warming, chronic heat exposure may increasingly impact male reproductive health.”

Dr Huang said potential approaches to address the issue include:

increasing public awareness of heat exposure and reproductive health;encouraging protective behaviours;expanding research integrating climate and reproductive health data; andexploring clinical and lifestyle interventions to mitigate heat-related effects.

The research team was assisted by research intern Jeffrey Zi Kang Huang from Taipei American School, particularly in the application of artificial intelligence in biomedical research including AI-assisted data analysis and pattern recognition across global datasets.

“Further longitudinal and mechanistic studies will be important to better define causality and guide interventions,” he added.

The ASPIRE Congress is being held at the China National Convention Centre in Beijing. More than 3,000 scientists, clinicians, nurses and counsellors in assisted reproduction from around the world are attending the Congress.
