Trek Rides Launches Third DRT Zone in Gombak

Known as the Selayang Baru zone, the Demand-Responsive Transit service is free to use for three months, aimed at improving first-and-last-mile connectivity

Malaysia’s leading mobility-as-a-service company, Asia Mobility Technologies Sdn Bhd (“Asia Mobiliti”), today launches its newest Trek Rides zone in Gombak, Selangor.

Known as Demand-Responsive Transit (DRT), the service called Trek Rides will cover key residential, commercial and public service areas. This includes Kg Laksamana, Kg Nakhoda, Wira Damai, Kg Sungai Tua, two public transit stations – KTM Batu Caves and Dataran Bandar Baru Selayang – with a total of 71 pick-up and drop-off locations. Trek Rides is being offered for free beginning 12 June 2023 for three months with the support of the office of the Member of Parliament for Gombak.

“DRT is a reliable, affordable, efficient, and dynamic service that can benefit commuters on a sustainable basis,” said Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari, the Chief Minister of Selangor and Member of Parliament for Gombak.

“We are excited to partner with Asia Mobiliti for first-and-last-mile connectivity as the state government’s mission has always been to promote public transportation usage amongst its residents, and we are planning to introduce more zones across Selangor in the near future.”

Ramachandran Muniandy, CEO and Co-founder of Asia Mobiliti said, “We are pleased to work with the state government of Selangor to introduce the concept of DRT with Trek Rides to commuters and residents in Bandar Baru Selayang, a bustling residential and commercial area that is underserved by public transit.

“Following the successful launches in Bandar Puteri, Puchong and the Universiti Malaya-Bangsar South zones, we are expanding the coverage areas across Klang Valley, one zone at a time.

“Our goal is to provide a digital, reliable, cost-effective and convenient service that meets commuters’ first- and-last-mile needs, which has been a perennial challenge in Malaysia. We believe that solving the first-and-last-mile journey with DRT will effect behavioural change that will result in increased modal share for public transport in our cities,” Ram said.

The system responds to multiple bookings within a predefined zone or route and optimises the dispatching of vehicles through the use of intelligent algorithms that factors in waiting time, travel time and traffic conditions.

The advanced dispatching and routing capabilities enables shared-rides services without compromising on estimated time of pick-up and drop-off, bringing unparalleled journey planning reliability for public transport users.

vivo Y36 5G Launched: An Affordable, Youthful and Stylish High-Performance Smartphone

Y36 5G combines a large FHD+ dotch display, Memory Booster, and best-in-class 5G performance, with chic, youthful styling.

Today, vivo launched vivo Y36 5G, the latest addition to its Y series of fun, high-performance smartphones. Featuring a larger, brighter 6.64-inch FHD+ dotch display, best-in-class features and exceptional performance, Y36 5G blends durability with ease of use to give users on a budget the most stylishly fun smartphone experience on the street.

Don’t be fooled by the fun, fashionable design profile of Y36 5G. Behind the sleek good looks, the latest member of Y series remains packed with features that make it uncompromisingly impressive. Alongside a larger, brighter 6.64-inch display, users will be reassured with its 8 GB of RAM, 8 GB of extended RAM, and 256 GB of storage. A 5000 mAh large battery with 44W FlashCharge means you will never miss a moment, while IP54 water and dust resistance ensures that Y36 5G won’t let you down when the fun gets going.

“The all-new Y36 5G builds on the success of vivo Y series, matching affordability, best-in-class features, gorgeously chiseled good looks, 5G connectivity and a larger, brighter display that makes life even more vibrant. Challenging the status-quo with specs, features, and exceptional design principles, Y36 5G underlines our quest to double the fun in your lifestyle,”
 said Mike Xu, Chief Executive Officer of vivo.

Higher 5G Performance and Longer Battery Life

The beating heart of the all-new Y36 5G is the latest flagship 5G chipset from MediaTek, the Dimensity 6020. An octa-core, 64-bit processor built on the energy-efficient 7 nm process, the MediaTek Dimensity 6020 packs a pair of Cortex-A76 cores at up to 2.2 GHz to take care of the heavy lifting, backed by six power-efficient Cortex-A55 cores that keep things ticking over in the background when multitasking.

This time, Y36 5G brings better performance of Memory Booster with the support of three core sub-features: Extended RAM 3.0, RAM Saver, and Interface Preserver. The inclusion of vivo Extended RAM 3.0 technology means that the 8 GB of LPDDR4X memory of Y36 5G is supplemented with additional virtual memory of 8 GB.

This means a faster, lag-free experience and the capability to run over 25 apps without losing momentum. Users will not have to worry about downloading or saving apps, videos or files on the phone thanks to the generous storage of 256 GB.

Despite its slim body, Y36 5G houses a 5000 mAh large battery that can hold its charge for extended HD movie streaming and graphic-intensive gaming sessions. The device also features 44W FlashCharge for impressively fast charging, meaning battery life will no longer impact your lifestyle.

Battery lifespan over time is enhanced further with the vivo Smart Charging Engine, which determines an optimal charging strategy based on whether the screen is on or off, or whether the phone is plugged into a device or charger. This reduces battery deterioration by up to 25%. Charging safety is guaranteed with 24-Dimension Security Protection that monitors the phone, battery, charging chip, Type-C port, cable and adapter to guarantee safe current, voltage, and temperature.

Y36 5G offers incredibly immersive audio thanks to its advanced Hi-Res speaker system, and Audio Booster, which boosts 200% volume, reaching up to 73 dB. In audio scenarios where a headset is not used, it provides an intense auditory experience that users can feel the atmosphere and emotions of each scene, or song with power and clarity.

Elegant Design, Stunning Dotch Display

Y36 5G is the first Y series model to feature a larger 6.64-inch FHD+ (2388 × 1080) LCD display with a subtle dotch design which minimizes interference with your viewing experience. Despite the larger viewing area, Y36 5G has a remarkable screen-to-body ratio of 91% that is more generous than most flagship offerings.

Composite sheet coating gives users a solid in-hand feeling, with a grip that can be trusted, while contoured 2.5D edge curvature adds a genuinely classy feel. Y36 5G is about 8 mm thick, and lightweight in your pocket at just 190 grams.

Device security is also assured. An easy-to-access lock screen is bolstered with a fingerprint scanner integrated within the power button on the device’s right side, allowing users to simultaneously power on and unlock the phone.

Ultra HD Imaging System with Atmospheric Portrait

Y36 5G is a photographer’s dream, especially when it comes to taking creative portrait shots using Atmospheric Portrait. Using the 16 MP HD front portrait camera, users can apply unique light effects that produce personalized, sophisticated selfies.

Multiple portrait styles are also available on both front and rear cameras. Front camera portrait styles include Fresh, Texture, 1980s, Rococo, Gray, Film, Holiday, Kyoto cherry and Tokyo style, while the rear camera boasts Vintage film, French impressions, and Flash portrait. Users can also apply a Face Beauty algorithm which enhances every aspect of the user’s face, brushing up skin tones, and smoothing complexions while beautifying facial features. Finer details can be manually adjusted to achieve specific looks that reflect the unique personality of the user.

Front Portrait mode offers multiple levels of the bokeh effect that can be adjusted to make users stand out as the main subject in the photo. In low-light environments with point light sources, the 2 MP rear bokeh camera offers Bokeh Flare Portrait mode with multiple effects that users can customize, blurring busy backgrounds so that the subject stands out.

Double Exposure mode comes in two varieties: Two Exposures which merges two consecutive shots, and Multiple Exposure which blends characters and backgrounds to produce distinctive and surreal photo effects.

The rear camera also supports Super Night Algorithms which use multi-frame denoising to capture vivid details in the most demanding lighting conditions.

AI@Work: How Workato is Using Generative AI to Drive Business Efficiency

Announcing WorkbotGPT, a new way to automate work using a Chat UX

Workato
, the leading Enterprise Automation platform, today announced
AI@Work
 which includes significant product updates that enable enterprises to adopt AI for automations to drive business efficiency. The new capabilities are seamlessly integrated into the Workato platform and leverage
OpenAI
 technologies.

“Today, the massive productivity, efficiencies, and innovations AI can bring to businesses are only limited by the scale with which companies adopt it,” said Gautham Viswanathan, co-founder, and Chief Product Officer at Workato. “Workato’s AI@Work brings the power of AI, Automation, and Integration capabilities into a single platform to enable enterprises to rapidly adopt AI at scale. With AI@Work, we are making it easier for our customers to incorporate generative AI in their automations, introducing a copilot experience to build recipes and connectors, and, finally, a new way to converse with your applications and data to automate your work.”

With AI@Work, Workato users will have access to the following:

Workato Copilots
: Workato Copilots are like a co-worker who is a Workato expert. It works with you to build Workato recipes and connectors using natural language. The Copilots are trained on millions of data points from Workato’s public recipe community, have a deep understanding of business entity relationships, logic, data mappings, and transformations, and use this knowledge to guide the builder. Workato Copilots adhere to the strictest data privacy standards and do not use customer data from these interactions to train any model.

AI Connectivity
: Users can use Workato’s
OpenAI Connector
 and other
AI Connectors
 to infuse AI capabilities into their automations to build smarter business processes. Since May 2023, many customers have used the OpenAI connector to create automated processes that generate content for sales emails/sequences, respond intelligently based on feedback, create personalized reactivation and nurture campaigns, automate help desk operations, build QBR and sales decks, enhance employee engagement, create virtual assistants, and more.

WorkbotGPT (Coming soon)
: WorkbotGPT enables users to converse in natural language with applications and data to automate their work. Users can also chain their interactions to automate complex multi-step automations. For example, you can instruct WorkbotGPT to fetch deals over 100K and ask for an update from the AEs. WorkbotGPT will then fetch those opportunities from Salesforce, and send an email to the AEs requesting an update. No recipes to build, no code to write. Just conversation!

GEARS
AI
: As the operational framework to drive adoption across any organization, GEARS (Govern, Enable, Adopt, Run, Scale), is used by Workato customers to successfully drive democratization and adoption of automation throughout their business. This framework has now been enhanced to provide a framework and roadmap for the adoption of AI along with Automation.

Equally concerning is the growing prominence of data stealers, who leverage stolen credentials to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information.

“The volume of threats in 2023 has surged relative to last year, a sign that criminals are scaling and enhancing how they compromise systems and execute attacks,” said Candid Wüest, Acronis VP of Research. “To address the dynamic threat landscape, organizations need agile, comprehensive, unified security solutions that provide the necessary visibility to understand attacks, simplify context, and provide efficient remediation of any threat, whether it may be malware, system vulnerability, and everything in between.”

According to the report’s findings, phishing is the primary method criminals leverage to unearth login credentials. In the first half of 2023 alone, the number of email-based phishing attacks has surged 464% when compared to 2022. Over the same frame, there has also been a 24% increase in attacks per organization.

In the first half of 2023, Acronis-monitored endpoints observed a 15% increase in the number of files and URLs per scanned email. Cybercriminals have also tapped into the burgeoning large language model (LLM)-based AI market, using platforms to create, automate, scale, and improve new attacks through active learning.

The cyberattack landscape is evolving

Cybercriminals are becoming more sophisticated in their attacks, using AI and existing ransomware code to drill deeper into victims’ systems and extract sensitive information. AI-created malware is adept at avoiding detection in traditional antivirus models and public ransomware cases have exploded relative to last year. Acronis-monitored endpoints are picking up valuable data about how these cybercriminals operate and recognizes how some attacks have become more intelligent, sophisticated, and difficult to detect.

Drawing from extensive research and analysis, key findings from the report include:

Acronis blocked almost 50 million URLs at the endpoint in Q1 2023, a 15% increase over Q4 2022.

There were 809 publicly mentioned ransomware cases in Q1 2023, with a 62% spike in March over the monthly average of 270 cases.

In Q1 2023, 30.3% of all received emails were spam and 1.3% contained malware or phishing links.

Each malware sample lives an average of 2.1 days in the wild before it disappears. 73% of samples were only seen once.

Public AI models are proving an unwitting accomplice for criminals looking for source code vulnerabilities, creating attacks and developing fraud prevention-thwarting attacks like deep fakes.

 Cybercriminal gangs phish to acquire credentials, extract data and dollars, of note:

The LockBit gang was responsible for major data breaches.

Clop breached a mental health provider’s system, affecting the personal and HIPAA-covered data of more than 783,000 individuals.

BlackCat stole more than 2TB of secret military data, which included personal information of employees and customers, from an Indian industrial manufacturer.

Vice Society compromised 1,200 servers and the personal information of 43,000 students, 4,000 academic staff and 1,500 administrative staff at the University of Duisburg-Essen in Germany.

Breaches demonstrate major security concerns

Traditional cybersecurity methods and lack of action let attackers in, the report shares:

There is a lack of strong security solutions in place that can detect zero-day vulnerability exploitations.

Organizations often fail to update vulnerable software in a timely manner, long after a fix becomes available.

Linux servers face inadequate protection against the cybercriminals who are increasingly going after them.

Not all organizations follow proper data backup protocol, including the 3-2-1 rule.

With these trends in mind, Acronis emphasizes the need for proactive cyber protection measures. A sound cybersecurity posture requires a multi-layered solution that combines anti-malware,
 EDR
,
DLP
, email security, vulnerability assessment, patch management, RMM, and backup capabilities. Leveraging an advanced solution that combines AI, machine learning, and behavioral analysis can help mitigate the risks posed by ransomware and data stealers.

ASUS ZenWiFi Mesh Router Win PCMag 2023 Readers’ Choice Award

PCMag reports that “ASUS takes a clear lead in this category” with “exceptionally high” scores for mesh coverage, WiFi speed and network management

ZenWiFi mesh routers achieve the highest scores for overall satisfaction and the likelihood that users will recommend the product to others

PC Mag says, “ASUS is no stranger to winning Readers’ Choice for routers—it has done so 11 times for standalone units”

ASUS ZenWiFi XT12, XT9 and XT8 are the world’s first WiFi 6 mesh systems supporting UNII-4 for more stable and powerful mesh backhaul connections

ASUS today announced that its ZenWiFi mesh routers have won a coveted PC Magazine 2023 Readers’ Choice Award. The authoritative publication reported that “ASUS takes a clear lead in this category,” with the highest scores “for both overall satisfaction and likelihood to recommend.” PCMag added, “ASUS scores exceptionally high for mesh coverage, WiFi speed and network management.”

ASUS attributes its success with these awards to mesh routers such as the ZenWiFi Pro ET12 and XT12, and the ZenWiFi XT9, XT8, XD6/XD6S, XD5 and XD4 Plus.

ASUS ZenWiFi Pro ET12 and XT12

ASUS ZenWiFi Pro ET12 and XT12 combine performance and beauty in an expertly balanced package for the most demanding users. They are engineered to deliver maximum WiFi performance — up to 11000 Mbps and 12 streams — and are driven by a next-gen 2 GHz 64-bit Broadcom CPU and Broadcom WiFi chipset. This series also includes ASUS RangeBoost Plus, which can improve WiFi signal range and coverage by up to astonishing 38 percent.

The supplied two-node configuration should be sufficient for coverage of up to approximately 6000 square feet, or more than 6 rooms. Coverage can be extended further for larger homes using any ASUS AiMesh-compatible extendable router. To unlock the full potential of high-speed networking for wired router-to-client fronthaul and router-to-node backhaul connections, ASUS ZenWiFi Pro series includes two 2.5 Gbps Ethernet ports. These support link aggregation, enabling ultrafast speeds from the router to bandwidth-heavy devices such as network-attached storage.

The ASUS ZenWiFi Pro ET12 works with the latest WiFi 6E devices, including the new ROG Ally and many Apple devices, taking the capabilities of whole-home mesh networks to the next level. Users can dedicate the 6 GHz band as a powerful low-interference backhaul connection between nodes, or they can use wired backhaul to connect all the latest WiFi 6E devices with the 6 GHz band. Mobile gamers or tablet users can enjoy seamless roaming experiences as they move about the home.

ASUS ZenWiFi Pro X12 is the first mesh system on the market that supports the newly expanded UNII-4 spectrum, also known as the 5.9 GHz band. This band fully unleashes the power of WiFi 6 by bringing a third and clearer 160 MHz channel without any radar system interference. By leveraging this advantage, users can enjoy stable and powerful mesh backhaul performance that improves the signal range of the 160 MHz channel by up to 20 percent.

ASUS ZenWiFi XT9, XT8, XD6 and XD6S

ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 has also been acclaimed by the world’s top media, including winning the PCMag 2023 Editors’ Choice Award for Best Wi-Fi Mesh System. The ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 is a tri-band system designed to easily set up a reliable and secure smart home network that can cover up to 5500 square feet with speeds of up to 6600 Mbps. The ASUS ZenWiFi XT9 raises the bar further with superfast 7800 Mbps bandwidth and ASUS-exclusive RangeBoost Plus technology to boost WiFi coverage to as much as 5700 square feet.

And both the ASUS ZenWiFi XT9 and XT8 support the new UNII-4 spectrum, so users can enjoy stable and powerful mesh backhaul performance.

For households already equipped with wired networking cables for backhaul connections, the dual-band ASUS ZenWiFi XD6 and XD6S are good alternatives. They share the same processing power as the ZenWiFi XT8 and provide up to 5400Mbps speeds and 4×4 MIMO wireless transmission that supports the 160 MHz channel width in the 5 GHz band, making these the top tier dual-band mesh systems on the market. Users can enjoy the 4×4 advantage to connect more devices with more stable connections and higher speeds.

ASUS ZenWiFi XD5 and XD4 Plus

For users with more modest bandwidth needs, ASUS offers the ASUS ZenWiFi XD5 and XD4 Plus. Available at a budget-friendly price, these dual-band mesh WiFi systems offer up to 3000 Mbps and 1800 Mbps of aggregate throughput. Through their 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands, they offer both high performance and extended range.

Their three nodes are a great fit for homes, up to 5000 square feet for the XD5 and 4800 square feet for the XD4 Plus. Both come with mounting holes and a screw pack that make it easy to position the nodes right where they’re needed.

Values beyond WiFi coverage and speeds

The entire ZenWiFi series offers a wide range of features designed to deliver both enhanced security and bonus functionality, without any subscription fees. And it can all be easily managed through the free ASUS Router mobile app or the web browser interface. The highly rated mobile app lets users set up their network in just three simple steps.

Meanwhile, ASUS AiProtection leverages powerful cybersecurity solutions and cloud data centers from Trend Micro™ to shield smart homes and all connected devices from cyber threats. With one-click network security scanning, users can discover their network’s security flaws, analyze their router’s security level and receive a diagnosis that lets users fix vulnerabilities right away.

The ASUS ZenWiFi series also supports a range of VPN protocols, including PPTP, L2TP/IPSec, OpenVPN and the latest WireGuard
®
 security protocol for a variety of VPN scenarios. And when users are connecting to public WiFi away from home, the ASUS Instant Guard mobile app gives them a one-tap secure VPN
5
 which they can easily share with family and friends through a URL link, providing the same VPN protection.

In addition, the ASUS ZenWiFi series empowers parents to effortlessly monitor their kids’ online activity and customize settings for each connected device, with features such as kid-safe presets, flexible time scheduling or rewards, an Internet activity dashboard and a content filter.
