Austin – November 10, 2026 -- Civitech, a public benefit corporation that builds voter data and outreach tools for progressive candidates and causes, has won four Top Workplaces Culture Excellence awards alongside a 2026 Top Workplace designation from the Austin American-Statesman.

Civitech wins in four culture categories

The company was recognized for Purpose & Values, Work-Life Flexibility, Employee Appreciation and Innovation. Energage, which determines the awards, bases the honors on a research-backed employee engagement survey.

Bonita Springs – November 10, 2026 -- Philadelphia-based Otter Property Management has moved its portfolio of about 750 rentals to Rentvine's property management software, citing the platform's open API and AI tools as the deciding factors, Rentvine announced.

Otter leaves Appfolio to keep its tech-first profile

Otter launched in 2020 as a paperless, technology-driven company and manages single-family homes, duplexes and triplexes. Owner and operations manager Kevin Moyer said the firm had outgrown its previous software. He saw a growing number of peers in the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM), where he is an active member, expanding their AI capabilities with Rentvine.

"We got too comfortable on Appfolio, and that's not who we are as a tech-forward company," Moyer said.

Foster City – November 10, 2026 -- Qualys (NASDAQ: QLYS) has expanded its global mROC program to five strategic technology alliance partners (Claroty, Lookout, NowSecure, Nozomi Networks and Okta), feeding risk data from mobile, OT/IoT and identity systems into its Enterprise TruRisk Management (ETM) platform.

Partner telemetry flows into a single TruRisk score

Qualys says these attack surfaces are among the least measured in the enterprise. Phones, connected devices, industrial and medical systems, and identities often cannot run a traditional agent or tolerate active scanning. Their risk therefore goes unmeasured or sits in a separate tool with its own scoring.

ETV100 now meets the same NSF requirements applied to heat transfer fluids used in food and beverage processing plants. To earn HT1 status, NSF reviews a fluid's formulation and labeling against U.S. FDA regulations (21 CFR).

ETV100 runs Infinium Edge's single-phase immersion cooling systems, including Vector ONE modules deployed through the EdgeSites program. EdgeSites converts existing powered commercial and industrial buildings into AI data centers that use zero freshwater for cooling.

Administrators can view enrolled devices in the same workspace they use for privileged access management (PAM) and manage software across major package managers.
