Exein and Deutsche Telekom IoT Partner to Secure the Next Generation of Connected Devices7.10.2026 09:00:00 EEST | Press release
Exein, a global leader in physical AI and runtime security, today announced a strategic partnership with Deutsche Telekom IoT to bring integrated security to connected devices across Deutsche Telekom IoT’s ecosystem. With its own transatlantic network and around 600 roaming and satellite partners, Deutsche Telekom IoT provides worldwide connectivity for customers across industries and markets. The partnership pairs Exein's device-level security with Deutsche Telekom IoT’s global connectivity capabilities, addressing a gap that is becoming more urgent as intelligent, business-critical applications move directly onto devices operating in the field — robots, drones and industrial machines acting autonomously and making decisions in the physical world. Exein's security technology already protects more than two billion devices globally, across sectors including automotive, robotics, energy and industrial manufacturing. Its latest runtime architecture, Photon, operates at kernel level to blo
Stop Hoping for Secure AI and Start Building It: RSA Agent ID Closes the Agentic Identity Gap for Highly Regulated Industries7.10.2026 07:00:00 EEST | Press release
At World Summit AI in the Netherlands, RSA, the identity standard for government agencies, finance, and high-assurance organizations, today announced RSA Agent ID, the agentic identity security platform for highly-regulated industries. RSA Agent ID discovers, secures, and governs AI agents across their lifecycle, letting regulated organizations find and register agents, prove the authority behind every consequential action, and run it where they choose. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261006426797/en/ Three forces are reshaping how organizations operate, and they are arriving at once. AI is transforming work and pushing agents into production faster than security teams can track them, while making attacks cheaper, faster, and harder to detect. Companies and countries are reclaiming control over their data and the decisions made on their behalf. And security has moved from an IT responsibility to a board-level

European Firms Struggle to Keep Pace with Growing DSAR Demands, New Reveal Study Finds6.10.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
New research published today byReveal, the provider of integrated AI-native platforms spanning the dispute resolution lifecycle, found that large European organisations complete fewer than half of data subject access requests (DSARs) within the one-month deadline required under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a shortfall the study ties directly to a near-universal absence of purpose-built technology. Nearly nine in 10 organisations still run DSARs on manual or general-purpose workflows, with no dedicated tooling in place. The report, based on a survey of 213 legal and privacy professionals at large European enterprises, is the first of its kind to benchmark how organisations across the region are managing DSAR compliance at scale. The findings expose structural inconsistencies between how organisations perceive their DSAR processes and how those processes perform. Ninety percent of respondents said they are confident their process would withstand scrutiny from an Informa
