CHICAGO – November 06, 2026 -- StrongestLayer has launched Intent Workflows, a capability that holds high-risk emails before delivery and routes them to a designated person or security team, targeting attacks that carry no malware or suspicious links and pass standard security checks.

Few attacks drive nearly all losses, and most pass authentication

According to StrongestLayer's Q2 2026 Phishing Genome research, 3.6% of attacks accounted for 98% to 99.7% of financial losses. Of those attacks, 94% passed SPF, DKIM and DMARC authentication checks, and every one cleared the victim organization's secure email gateway.

"Some of the most expensive attacks look completely legitimate," said Alan LeFort, CEO and Co-founder of StrongestLayer.

DELRAY BEACH – November 06, 2026 -- The global Cloud FinOps market is projected to grow from USD 17.27 billion in 2026 to USD 33.12 billion by 2031, a CAGR of 13.9%, according to MarketsandMarkets.

Cost anomaly management is the fastest-growing application at 18.9% CAGR

Volatile AI inference demand and short-lived workloads are driving enterprises toward early detection, accountable investigation and enforceable spending guardrails. Consumption variability across GPU infrastructure, Kubernetes environments and distributed applications is increasing demand for automated alerts, budget guardrails and policy-based governance. Machine learning is being integrated into cost investigation workflows to flag abnormal consumption faster, while automated remediation supports quicker optimization decisions.

Munich – November 06, 2026 -- LITEON Technology will present an end-to-end power architecture built around 800 VDC for AI data centers at electronica 2026 in Munich, running November 10 to 13 across two booths under the theme "LITEON Powers AI."

LITEON covers rack-to-chip power delivery for high-density AI computing

Rising AI power density is reshaping data center power architectures and increasing the need for efficient, reliable power delivery from the rack to the chip. LITEON's architecture spans energy storage, rack-level power delivery, server power and chip-level power conversion.

The product lineup includes 800 VDC, high-power Power Shelves, modular power solutions, 800V and 50V Power Bricks, Intermediate Bus Converter (IBC) Modules and Voltage Regulator Modules (VRMs). LITEON will also show high-power magnetic components for AI power systems, energy storage and industrial power conversion.

San Jose – November 06, 2026 -- Supermicro, IBM and NVIDIA have launched a joint KV cache storage solution that delivered up to 56x faster Time-to-First-Token (TTFT) at 130,000-token prompts in testing with a 120-billion-parameter large language model.

Test results show TTFT rising 0.377 seconds with cache versus 29.55 seconds without

As input length grew from 30,000 to 130,000 tokens, TTFT increased by only 0.377 seconds with persistent KV cache. Without it, TTFT increased by 29.55 seconds. The figures come from joint testing by Supermicro and NVIDIA and are detailed in an IBM Redbook.

The companies also ran cluster-level validation covering high-concurrency and noisy-neighbor network traffic scenarios.

Toronto – November 06, 2026 -- Tucows Inc. (NASDAQ: TCX) (TSX: TC) reported third-quarter 2026 adjusted EBITDA of $18.6 million, up 39.8% year over year and 51% from the prior quarter, driven mainly by a one-time re-rate of its mobile contract in the Corporate segment.

Gross profit rises 20.5% on non-recurring contract renegotiation

Consolidated net revenue increased 1.4% year over year to $100.0 million, with growth at Ting driving the gain. Gross profit climbed 20.5% to $29.1 million and improved 13% sequentially. Tucows attributed both gains primarily to the large, non-recurring re-rate from renegotiating the mobile contract, plus year-over-year growth at Ting.

Ting also posted strong adjusted EBITDA year over year and sequentially, but the Corporate segment's mobile contract re-rate was the main driver of the quarter's result.

DALLAS – November 06, 2026 -- Only 38.9% of Fermi Inc.'s outstanding shares voted to re-elect director Rick Perry at the October 30 annual meeting, according to co-founder and largest shareholder Toby Neugebauer. He is now demanding that the Nasdaq-listed company (FRMI) put itself up for sale while it closes a tenant deal.

Perry vote falls short under the board's own majority rule

More than 61% of outstanding shares did not back Perry, Neugebauer said. Excluding the 68,842,821 shares the Perry family last reported owning, support dropped to 31.5% of the remaining shares. Neugebauer said Perry ran behind the other director on the ballot on every measure.

Global – November 06, 2026 -- NTT and Safran DS are collaborating on next-generation multi-orbit optical ground communications, targeting an optical communication infrastructure that seamlessly connects space and Earth.

Partnership targets optical ground communications across multiple orbits

The two companies describe the work as a joint effort on ground-based optical communications for multi-orbit use. The stated goal is an infrastructure that links space-based assets and terrestrial networks without gaps.

The announcement does not disclose financial terms, project timelines, technical specifications, deployment sites or named executives.

Austin – November 06, 2026 -- webAI has released its webAI app for Mac to the public for the first time, running small reasoning models locally so users can process private files without cloud uploads or per-token charges.

Local processing replaces metered cloud usage

The app executes webAI's new small reasoning models on the user's own computer. According to the company, most AI services run in the cloud, where usage is metered by tokens or capped by plan, and every document is sent to external servers. On the Mac, a user can revise a sensitive client proposal or an unfinished business plan repeatedly without hitting a token limit.

CEO and co-founder David Stout described the aim as "making cloud AI optional," adding that users keep control over what they share and can ask unlimited follow-up questions.

BRUSSELS – November 06, 2026 -- Six identity technology providers will run a complete birth registration through the OSIA standard (ITU-T X.1281) at TRUSTECH Paris on 1-3 December 2026, with a different vendor line-up each day, the Secure Identity Alliance (SIA) announced.

DIGITECH, iDAKTO, IN Groupe, Mühlbauer, Thales and X Infotech will connect their systems at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. The demo covers the full chain, from checking the parent's identity to a birth certificate printed on a card and verified on the spot.

Demo walks visitors through a birth registration from parent check to QR verification

Visitors play the child whose birth is being registered. The parent's identity is first obtained and checked, and the visitor provides details and a live face capture. After data verification, the birth is registered and a unique identification number (UIN) is attributed.
