Solution provides a practical, cost-effective and secure pathway for federal, defense, space, critical infrastructure and enterprise customers preparing existing systems for CNSA 2.0 Readiness

COLUMBIA, Md., July 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — EigenQ, Inc. today announced new platform capabilities designed to help organizations prepare deployed Intel Xeon processor-based infrastructures for CNSA 2.0-aligned post-quantum migration requirements.

As advancements in quantum computing progress, agencies and regulated enterprises are accelerating plans to protect sensitive systems and workloads from future quantum-enabled attacks. As a part of this process, many face a practical challenge: how to enable quantum-resistant protections across infrastructures s already deployed in the field.

By working closely with Intel, EigenQ’s post-quantum security platform and quantum entropy capabilities are now compatible with Intel’s secure computing architecture and platform ecosystem. This alignment enables a clear, seamless and scalable approach to augmenting post-quantum readiness for existing in-field Intel Xeon processor-based systems – across federal, defense, space, critical infrastructure and enterprise environments – without the need to fully replace existing system infrastructures. The EigenQ solution is expected to support use-cases involving sensitive workload protection, secure communications, identity, key generation, attestation and modernization of high-assurance systems.

“EigenQ is proud to work with Intel to help bring practical quantum-safe protections to the enormous installed base of Intel Xeon processor-based infrastructure. Our goal is to help customers preserve the value of trusted infrastructure while adding a quantum-safe security layer that supports real-world deployment requirements before compliance deadlines arrive.”

– Dr. José R. Rosas-Bustos, Chief Executive Officer, EigenQ

“Intel is committed to addressing the evolving post-quantum security landscape. Along with companies like EigenQ, we’re enabling practical security modernization for the large installed base of Intel Xeon processor-based systems deployed across mission-critical environments. This allows organizations to move toward CNSA 2.0 readiness and mitigate the possibility of future quantum threats to their existing Xeon-based infrastructure.”

– Srini Krishna, Intel Fellow, Data Center Products, Intel Corporation

In alignment with EigenQ’s broader ecosystem development for secure federal and space applications,BlackVe — a trusted mission partner delivering asymmetric and operationally responsive national security space capabilities – has committed to utilize EigenQ’s Intel-compatible post quantum cryptography technologies, including PQC enabled encrypted video teleconferencing capabilities, as a foundational security layer for a complete secure video system.

“BlackVe is excited to partner with EigenQ as we advance the development of next-generation post-quantum cryptography solutions for space and mission-critical environments. Together, we are combining innovation, security, and operational expertise to help shape resilient PQC-enabled architectures capable of protecting tomorrow’s space and intelligence missions against emerging quantum threats.”

– Doug Wolfe, Chief Solutions Architect, BlackVe, Inc.

By combining QMA quantum entropy technology, PQC+ cryptographic libraries and platform integration capabilities, EigenQ is helping enable a post-quantum secure solution designed for mission-critical communications.

“Post-quantum security is increasingly a deployment problem, not only an algorithm problem. Customers need solutions that work with existing infrastructure, can be integrated into operational environments and can support mission timelines. That is where the pairing of Intel and EigenQ technologies can help to deliver immediate and practical impact.”

– Dr. Jesse Van Griensven, Chairman, EigenQ

Collaboration with Intel further underscores EigenQ’s focus on translating post-quantum security from planning and standards into deployable capabilities for current mission-critical environments. By integrating currently deployed Intel Xeon platforms, EigenQ is helping customers prepare for the post-quantum transition with solutions designed to preserve operational continuity, strengthen resilience and support practical deployment at scale.

Rakuten Viber and OpenAI Partner to Bring ChatGPT Directly into Messaging

SAN MATEO, Calif. and LONDON, July 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Rakuten Viber is bringing ChatGPT directly to your fingertips. Through a new global partnership with OpenAI, Viber users can now access ChatGPT-powered tools for free and without leaving the app.

You don’t need to be a tech expert to use these tools in Viber. They are designed to make AI accessible to everyone, even if you have never used an AI assistant before. Whether you need to edit a photo, draft the perfect message, or find inspiration for a new recipe, these new features are just a tap away (usage limits apply).

Features to Help You Every Day

The following functionality, powered by ChatGPT, is now available to Viber users globally on iOS and Android, with desktop support coming soon:

ChatGPT in Viber as a dedicated contact and tab: Get a ChatGPT experience in a dedicated Viber chat. Ask or search anything, get help with a task, or think something through whenever you need to, without opening another app. You do not need a ChatGPT account to get started, but you can create one or log in to connect and get higher limits.Tag ChatGPT in any conversation: Bring ChatGPT into a conversation. Need ideas on where to watch the match? Ask @ChatGPT in a private or group chat to make suggestions. Type “@” and select ChatGPT as the first option in the menu to ask a question. Everyone in the chat can reply to ChatGPT’s response, so the conversation keeps moving. ChatGPT responses are visually distinct from other participants’ messages, so it’s always clear when a message comes from ChatGPT. Only the specific message you send or recent messages that mention ChatGPT are shared with ChatGPT, not any context from the rest of your conversation.Image Remix: Reimagine your photos. Powered by ChatGPT Images, you can now edit and personalize photos directly in your 1:1 and group chats. Change the style, add a twist, or turn a regular photo into something that marks a special occasion. Viber also added a set of ready-made templates to get you started instantly. Select the Remix button and let your imagination run wild.Link Summary: ChatGPT can summarize the key points from a shared article, blog post, or document – just tap the button under a link. This feature is enabled by default in all group chats.Chat Summary: Easily catch up on busy chats. With one tap, you receive a private summary of the conversation – visible only to you – to help you stay on top of important details or agreed actions, whether you are planning a school trip or catching up on work updates.Polish Messages: Not sure how to say something important? Tap the pen icon in any chat, community or channel (excluding comment threads), to rewrite your message for the right tone and clarity before you send it. Rest assured: others will not see that you used the polish tool.Translate Message: Break down language barriers instantly. Whether you are chatting with a local business while on holiday or sending a birthday wish to a colleague in their native language, translation is just a tap on the pen icon away.

To start using these features, update your Viber app to the latest version. To use Image Remix, simply log in to ChatGPT within the app, or create a free account within the app with a quick and easy, one-time process (no paid subscription required). All other tools are ready to use immediately with no registration or sign-up needed.

“We want to make everyday communication easier and more creative,” says Ofir Eyal, CEO at Rakuten Viber. “Partnering with OpenAI means we can bring ChatGPT to our users to add real, day-to-day value – even if they would never have sought it out on their own. Whether you’re drafting the perfect message, remixing an image, or just exploring a new idea, this is now built into the app people already use every day.”

Torben Severson, VP and Head of Global Business Development, OpenAI said: “Messaging is where so much of everyday life happens. With ChatGPT in Viber, people can get helpful, creative support right in the moment, from finding the right words to catching up on busy chats or remixing a photo. We’re excited to partner with Rakuten Viber to bring these tools into an app people already use every day.”

This partnership is part of Rakuten Viber’s ongoing commitment to using AI to simplify your daily life. It also supports the Rakuten Group’s ‘Triple 20’ initiative, which focuses on using AI to improve service efficiency and deliver a better experience for users everywhere.

Notes to Editors

Privacy and security remain at the heart of the Viber experience. Viber’s core features – including one-to-one calls and messages, group messages, private media sharing and linked devices – are protected by end-to-end encryption so conversations between Viber users stay private and can’t be read by Viber. Users also stay in control when they use an AI feature, and their explicit consent to OpenAI’s terms and policies is required before their first use.

“ChatGPT in Viber” chats are handled by OpenAI under the OpenAI Terms and Privacy Policy. If a user connects their ChatGPT account, their ChatGPT in Viber activity will be linked to that account and handled under OpenAI’s standard retention policies. For all other features, only the specific text, image, or request users choose is sent securely to OpenAI for processing – never account data or the rest of a chat. This data is only retained for a limited time period and is not shared or used to train OpenAI’s models.  ChatGPT-powered features are also subject to OpenAI’s Usage Policies, and OpenAI may review content for safety.

ChatGPT in Viber is available to Viber users in most countries where ChatGPT is supported. The experience is not available in a small number of countries where roll-out is not planned initially due to local priorities, or where ChatGPT is not currently available due to local regulations.

Luminate Bank® Named New Jersey’s #1 Large Company Top Workplace

Published

on

By

MINNEAPOLIS, July 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Luminate Bank has been named the #1 Large Company in the 2026 New Jersey Top Workplaces awards, presented by NJ.com in partnership with employee survey company Energage.

Employees cited Luminate Bank’s culture of trust, autonomy, collaboration, and purpose as key reasons the organization earned the top ranking.

As reported by NJ.com, one surveyed employee shared:

“I love my job because it lets me show up as both a problem-solver and a human. Every day brings a new challenge, a new story, and a chance to make something complicated feel manageable for someone else. I get to work alongside people who care, who collaborate, and who want to do things the right way, not the easy way. There’s real purpose in helping others move forward with confidence, and that sense of impact, mixed with trust, teamwork, and a little momentum, is what makes me genuinely excited to do this work every day.”

Luminate Bank’s roots trace back to a Minnesota state-chartered bank established in 1937. In 2020, Taryn Reuter, Eric Lovins, and Thomas Payne acquired the bank and a mortgage company, ushering in a new chapter built around the Luminate name, inspired by the Latin root for “light.” With a shared commitment to helping people navigate complex financial decisions with clarity, transparency, and care, the two businesses came together over the following years and ultimately unified in 2025 under a single brand: Luminate Bank. Together with CEO Marc Campbell, the leadership team continues building a future-focused banking experience that combines innovative digital solutions with deeply personal customer relationships.

Over the past five years, Luminate Bank has grown its assets from $62 million to $500 million. Mortgage originations, meanwhile, have expanded from $22 million to more than $4 billion in just over a decade, as the company has grown from a six-person operation into a nationwide organization of over 700 professionals.

“This award reflects the kind of organization our people choose to build every day,” said Marc Campbell, CEO. “We are united by a shared mission and a genuine commitment to one another. Our team brings integrity, determination, and openness to their work, and that alignment between people, purpose, and values is what truly sets Luminate Bank apart.”

The New Jersey Top Workplaces program recognizes employers based entirely on confidential employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by Energage. The survey measures key aspects of workplace culture, including employees’ feelings of being respected and supported, opportunities for growth, empowerment to execute, and confidence in leadership.

Luminate Bank’s recognition as New Jersey’s top-ranked large employer reflects the organization’s continued investment in building a workplace where employees are empowered to thrive while delivering exceptional service to customers and communities.
