The rebuilt managed detection and response (MDR) service includes the SIEM, round-the-clock analysts in the US and EU, US or EU data hosting, and per-endpoint pricing with no log-ingestion fees, from a PCI Approved Scanning Vendor since 2007.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Clone Systems, Inc., a managed security and compliance provider and a PCI Security Standards Council Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) since 2007, today announced its rebuilt Managed SOC + SIEM, a 24/7 managed detection and response (MDR) service that now runs on Clone Systems’ own private, self-hosted AI. The SIEM is included in the service rather than sold on top, and customer logs are never sent to an outside AI provider or used to train public models.

24/7 Managed SOC + SIEM with private, self-hosted AI: SIEM included, US and EU analysts, no log-ingestion fees.

Security leaders are under pressure from auditors, cyber insurers and boards to prove continuous monitoring. PCI DSS v4.0.1 has required automated review of audit logs since March 31, 2025 under Requirement 10, and many organizations told to “get MDR” discover that the SIEM, log ingestion and AI features are priced separately, or that AI-assisted triage means sending sensitive logs to a third-party model. Clone Systems built its service to remove both problems.

The rebuilt Managed SOC + SIEM includes:

24/7 monitoring and response. Clone Systems analysts in the United States and the EU monitor, investigate and respond around the clock, with sub-minute response to critical alerts. Detection rules run every minute.The SIEM, included. Logs from endpoints, servers, firewalls, cloud and SaaS are collected and correlated in one console, with more than 100 integrations including CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Microsoft 365, Okta, AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Proofpoint and Mimecast.Private AI Alert Triage. The Clone Systems AI Assistant investigates alerts and drafts response steps inside Clone Systems’ own infrastructure. An analyst approves every action.Containment, not just alerts. Integrated endpoint detection and response (EDR) and managed intrusion prevention let analysts contain threats at the endpoint.Data residency by design. Each customer gets a dedicated instance, hosted in Clone Systems data centers in Philadelphia, Athens or Limassol, or deployed in the customer’s own environment so logs never leave it.Audit-ready reporting. Twelve standard reports, including a monthly executive report and a compliance evidence pack, with alerts mapped to PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST 800-53 and SOC 2, and 12-month log retention for PCI DSS.

“Every security leader we talk to wants AI working their alerts, and very few want their logs leaving the building to do it,” said Jorja Mandy, Director of Strategic Development at Clone Systems. “We built our AI ourselves and run it in our own data centers, next to the analysts who use it. Customers get faster investigations without handing their most sensitive data to a third party, and because the SIEM is included, the price they are quoted does not climb as their log volume grows.”

Managed SOC + SIEM is priced per endpoint with a 50-endpoint minimum. The SIEM, the AI and 24/7 analyst coverage are included, with no log-ingestion fees. Onboarding, from first call to full coverage, takes a few weeks.

“If your auditor, insurer or board has told you to buy MDR, this is that service,” said Elyse Hamilton, Vice President of Business Development at Clone Systems. “Buyers should not have to piece together a SIEM license, an ingestion plan and a monitoring contract to meet one requirement. We give them one service, one console and one team, from a company that has been helping organizations meet PCI DSS requirements since 2007.”

The same company provides PCI ASV scanning, vulnerability scanning and penetration testing, each sold separately, so organizations can cover logging (PCI DSS Requirement 10), scanning (11.3) and penetration testing (11.4) with one provider. For buyers comparing options, Clone Systems explains how SIEM, SOC, EDR, MDR and XDR differ.

Availability

The rebuilt Managed SOC + SIEM is available now to organizations worldwide. To request a quote or see the console, schedule a demo.

DUBAI, UAE, Oct. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — New Clark City, Philippines, hosts “switch-on” ceremony as New7Wonders opens worldwide public voting on www.7wondersfc.com to choose the urban developments shaping our future.

New7Wonders today officially launched global public voting for the 7 Wonders of Future Cities, in a landmark ceremony hosted in the Philippines on World Cities Day, marking the beginning of a year of worldwide participation, inviting people everywhere to vote for the cities and urban developments they believe best represent the future of urban life, which will culminate with the official declaration of the seven winning cities and developments on 31 October 2027. 

Hosted and organised by New Clark City, an Official Participant in the 7 Wonders of Future Cities campaign and one of the Philippines’ flagship urban development projects, the special switch-on ceremony brought together city leaders, media and invited guests to witness the activation of the global voting platform. 

Jean-Paul de la Fuente, Director of New7Wonders and Chairman of the 7 Wonders of Future Cities campaign, led the official switch-on. In a ceremonial moment, the campaign website at www.7wondersfc.com was transformed from its presentation format into the worldwide public voting platform, opening the opportunity for citizens across the globe to participate in selecting the urban visions that will define the cities of tomorrow. “Today, from the Philippines to the world, we have switched on more than a voting platform – we have switched on a global conversation about the future of our cities,” said de la Fuente. “For the next year, people everywhere have the opportunity to discover, engage with and champion the places they believe should become global symbols of urban progress.”

The 7 Wonders of Future Cities is a worldwide participation campaign from New7Wonders, the global authority behind the New 7 Wonders of the World and the New 7 Wonders of Nature, and is organised by Global Platform Limited, its Dubai, UAE-based worldwide licensing and commercial arm. Building on the extraordinary worldwide engagement of previous campaigns, which together have generated more than 600 million votes, the new initiative shifts the focus from celebrating humanity’s natural and historical wonders to recognising the places being created and transformed for humanity’s future. Participating cities and developments are brought together through three central themes: Environmental & Nature, Smart City and Human-Centric development. These reflect the conviction that successful future cities must balance ecological responsibility, technological progress and the needs and aspirations of the people who inhabit them.

SCANOLOGY Introduces AirGO Pad for On-Site 3D Scanning, Inspection and Reporting

Published

By

HANGZHOU, China, Oct. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SCANOLOGY introduces AirGO Pad, an integrated mobile measurement platform that brings 3D scanning, inspection and reporting alongside the part being measured. Combining computing, industrial 3D inspection software and touchscreen operation, AirGO Pad works with compatible SCANOLOGY wireless 3D scanners to help operators complete the inspection workflow on-site without carrying a separate laptop.

When inspecting a large component, operators need to move around the part while keeping scan data and measurement controls accessible. Finding a suitable place for a laptop—and returning to it to check results or adjust settings—can interrupt that process, particularly where space is limited. AirGO Pad places the inspection interface on a portable tablet, allowing operators to view data and interact with the software beside the component.

Users can connect a compatible wireless 3D scanner and view 3D data in real time, monitoring scan coverage and quality as they work. They can then align data, perform measurements and inspect results on the same device. During scanning, operators can create comparison points, features and other inspection elements as needed. Preconfigured report templates complete the workflow, enabling standardized inspection reports to be generated directly on AirGO Pad.

The platform’s design supports these transitions between scanning, inspection and reporting. Its high-definition touchscreen keeps model details and measurement results within reach. Operators can use the tablet in handheld mode while moving around the part, then unfold the convertible stand to review results on a suitable surface. A neck strap provides additional support when carrying and operating the device.

“Making a measurement system mobile means considering more than how operators carry the 3D scanner. They also need access to their data and inspection tools beside the part. We developed AirGO Pad to bring these activities together, from reviewing scan data to producing the inspection report,” said a product manager at SCANOLOGY.

AirGO Pad supports SCANOLOGY’s third-generation handheld and wireless optical 3D scanning systems, standard CAD/3D formats and wireless PC synchronization for measurement, annotation and review.

By

SHENZHEN, China, Oct. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SKYWORTH Solar has officially announced the global launch of Solavita, its dedicated brand for smart microgrid solutions. Positioned strategically as “A Smart Microgrid Expert for Diverse Energy Scenarios,” Solavita consolidates the company’s extensive solution portfolio and service infrastructure under a unified global identity, building upon its rapidly expanding international footprint.

Addressing Grid Flexibility and Long-Term System Value

The launch comes as electricity systems face growing demands for flexibility. The International Energy Agency’s 2026 mid-year electricity update highlights the importance of flexible resources and more efficient use of infrastructure as renewable generation expands. For customers, the priorities vary by market: managing electricity costs, using more locally generated solar power, or maintaining essential loads where grid supply is unreliable.

“As renewable energy becomes more distributed, the long-term performance of the whole system becomes increasingly important,” said Fan Ruiwu, Chairman of SKYWORTH Solar. “We see that performance as the foundation of our international energy business. With Solavita, we are bringing our capabilities together around a common approach to solution development and service, while working with local partners to adapt delivery to each market. Our focus is on the value these systems provide throughout their life.”

Solutions for Different Energy Needs

To address the dual challenges of grid volatility and operational cost, Solavita engineers its systems around a core architectural philosophy prioritizing grid-forming stability, intelligent automation, cross-generation efficiency, and multi-tier security. Translating these technical principles into practical applications, the brand introduces a comprehensive solution matrix tailored to specific market demands.

For residential users, the SolaHome suite utilizes an advanced Home Energy Management System (HEMS) to seamlessly coordinate rooftop solar, battery storage, and flexible domestic loads like heat pumps and EV chargers. In markets with dynamic electricity tariffs, such as Germany, HEMS automates energy dispatch to capitalize on low-price periods. This practical value is evidenced by a recent residential installation in Jesteburg, Germany, combines 18.9 kW of rooftop solar with 20.48 kWh of battery storage. Solavita reports nearly €50 in electricity-price arbitrage benefits during the first month of dynamic-tariff operation.

Expanding beyond the home, the portfolio scales up with SolaBiz, which integrates distributed solar, commercial storage, and smart dispatch to help factories and retail spaces manage peak-demand costs and safeguard against grid disruptions.

For larger utility and off-grid demands, SolaMatrix delivers scalable, containerized storage and microgrid management focused on stabilizing renewable integration in weak grid environments.

Finally, ensuring energy access in highly mobile contexts, SolaGo offers plug-and-play balcony solar and portable power systems for outdoor activities and critical emergency backup, completing Solavita’s end-to-end coverage of modern energy applications.

Global Engineering Foundation and Ecosystem Delivery

To guarantee the reliable implementation and long-term asset value of these diverse solutions, SKYWORTH Solar underpins Solavita with a robust global engineering foundation.

On the technology front, the Smart Microgrid Technology Centre connects cutting-edge research with product engineering, supported by academic collaborations with Tianjin University and Hainan University. This pipeline is further strengthened by a comprehensive Haikou test platform—scheduled for commissioning by the end of 2026—to rigorously validate grid-connected, islanded, and grid-forming systems.

The InfraCosmos Digital Platform supports lifecycle data management, operational monitoring and fault identification. It connects system information with service and maintenance, helping teams monitor performance and respond to operating issues.

Beyond hardware and software, this foundation extends to flexible supply chain execution and strategic project delivery. Solavita employs F+D+EPC+O (Financing, Development, Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Operations) framework for large-scale, asset-light project coordination, alongside a localized PD2C cooperation model actively deployed in markets like Germany and Italy to ensure rapid, market-specific service.

These capabilities underpin Solavita’s positioning as a smart microgrid expert, connecting system development with local delivery and ongoing service. The aim is to make integrated energy systems practical to deploy and support in each market.
