Finally - Some Good News In Oil & Gas
CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Good news is getting harder to find, lost in the shadows of low oil prices and layoff announcements. But you only need to spend a few minutes clicking around on the internet or flipping through a magazine in order to find the success stories. These are companies who continue to expand into new markets, or are innovating new technologies, or they are companies like VistaVu Solutions who continue to be recognized for their achievements and are happy to operate quietly, focusing on their customers' needs for increased cost control and efficiencies.
VistaVu Solutions has earned several recognitions and awards in 2015. Most recently, Canadian Business and PROFIT ranked VistaVu No. 226 on the Annual PROFIT 500, the definitive ranking of Canada's Fastest-Growing Companies, with a five-year annual growth rate of 260%. That announcement came on the heels of Inc. Magazines' annual Inc. 5000 ranking in the US, with VistaVu in No. 2125, up from No. 2355 in 2014.
According to Jory Lamb President of VistaVu, "What matters most aren't the awards - though it's great to be recognized in these ways. It's our customers that are our greatest achievement, and we are continually looking for ways to better support them. We haven't escaped having to make some difficult decisions ourselves this year, but we continue to invest in new technologies and prototypes in order to find ways to help our customers run better."
In 2015, VistaVu launched two new products, FieldVu Mobile and FieldVu Analytics. The increased emphasis on analytics and the subsequent drop in oil prices puts pressure on companies to use the data they already have, which lead to the development of FieldVu Analytics. Having the ability to make better decisions is often the difference between making money and losing it – FieldVu Analytics puts this data at your fingertips so you can make faster decisions in key areas like financials, job costing, workforce and equipment maintenance. VistaVu put their expertise into tools and out-of-the-box dashboards which helps energy services companies hit the ground running. And it's easy. "What I truly love about (FieldVu Analytics) is that it is so easy to use." says Logan Givner, Operational Controller at the Keane Group, one of VistaVu's customers. "Being able to drag objects into your report and create calculations, when you want to review the same information on a monthly or quarterly basis, makes financial analytics so much easier."
In the spring, VistaVu launched FieldVu mobile, a disconnected field data capture application. "FieldVu mobile helps customers get information from the field faster and more accurately. Reducing the time it takes to collect the information from the field and get bills out the door, can significantly impact cash flow," says Lamb. Both FieldVu Analytics and FieldVu Mobile complement VistaVu's core product, FieldVu, extending the value even further for their energy service customers.
In a world where markets go up and down and companies come and go, staying focused helps you keep decisions in line with strategy. At VistaVu, "We continue to work on next generation solutions for our customers. Technology is a tool that business can leverage to make a good business better, and we want to be on the leading edge of that." says Lamb.

Upcoming Windows 10 patch begs you not to change
I think this article sums up my Windows 10 fears perfectly.
A snip
I initially intended to upgrade to Windows 10, but the longer I’ve waited, the more uncertain I am that doing so is a good idea. It’s not a question of whether the UI is faster or DX12 a better gaming API — I’m fundamentally uninterested in engaging in a protracted fight with my operating system. In the past six weeks, we’ve seen Microsoft start including app suggestions in your own start menu, accidentally force-upgrade some users to Windows 10, download Windows 10 to systems even when the user has not requested that this occur, refuse to shut off telemetry, and refuse to address problems with its own patching model.
When I decided not to upgrade to Windows 8, my reasons were structural — I thought the Metro interface was a disaster and wasn’t willing to pay Microsoft for an OS with huge swathes of functionality I didn’t want. With Windows 10, the underlying model is far more solid, but Microsoft’s efforts to monetize, monitor, and control end-user interactions are extremely frustrating.
The article goes on to explain how one of the new patches will be asking users to actually "use" the applications that come with the operating system. Of course this begs the question. "How do they know you aren't using them?"
Yep, you are telling them, but not directly.
I suspect this will blow over eventually and the many many annoyances M$ has been building into Windows 10 will simply become noise while people use their computers how they want, else they will switch to something that will.
New OS anyone?

SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MaritzCX, the world's leading customer experience (CX) technology company, has today announced that it has opened an office in Sydney to fuel businesses success in Australia and New Zealand (ANZ).

According to David Blakers, ANZ managing director at MaritzCX, there is a huge opportunity for companies in the region to dramatically improve customer experience and create a sustainable competitive advantage.
"Australian companies understand the importance of ensuring the quality of customer experience, but while they understand the need and may have invested in a CX plan, they are now realizing they need a strategic partner to make a systemic CX investment successful.

The MaritzCX SaaS-based software and services approach is becoming as vital to global business performance as a financial, CRM, or ERP system."
"MaritzCX sets the standards in global CX and is the long-term partner needed to help businesses succeed. There is massive demand to master this business strategy and pouring money into disparate tactics is not the answer," Clark says.

Adaptive two-factor authentication: is it all it's cracked up to be?
NEW YORK, N.Y., Oct. 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- It's a given that employee access to corporate systems should be both as secure and simple as possible. Up until recently however, time-strapped CIOs, under pressure from demanding staff and challenged with authenticating users all over the world on multiple devices, have been torn between relying on the fatally flawed password or hard token two-factor authentication (2FA) to keep their systems secure.
Recently, adaptive authentication has gained in popularity, as it reduces the time it takes to log-in by verifying a user based on their location. But is this the best solution?
Adaptive authentication works by granting users access using just their user name and password if they are in a trusted location. Although in theory this process makes it easier for a user to authenticate their identity, there are several issues with this technology, which many may not realise.From an end-user prospective, they want speed, stability and consistency in their log-in methods. If a user attempts to verify their identity using adaptive authentication in a non-trusted location, they will be asked to use the full 2FA process. This will require them to enter a code generated on a soft or hard token depending on the technology used. If the user is using the full process less than once a week however, they are likely to run into complications – forgetting how the process works or even to bring their hard token if one is required.
Despite this, a small number of users, usually those who are based at home but travel frequently, login at multiple locations, multiple times a day. In this instance, adaptive authentication can prove its value, as a user will feel the benefit of a fast login process in trusted locations, whilst using the full 2FA process frequently enough to be familiar with it.
There are three ways of achieving adaptive authentication, and it's important for CIOs to consider the differences.
The first is to detect a user's geo position via their IP address. The process, called GeoIP, has its own issues. Internet service provides often change IP addresses of private users to prevent them from running their own servers at home. This means that when an IP address is switched, a user's location could appear to be somewhere 200 miles away, flagging them as now being in an unsecure location. The home of the user now assigned to the old IP address, has also suddenly become a trusted site.
Corporate offices and buildings will usually have just one external IP address and several internal addresses. These internal addresses are not made available externally, which means that to make a corporate location trusted, anyone in that office is then identified as a trusted user.
The second method is to use GPS location. This method requires an app to be installed on a user's mobile device. Whilst this is infinitely more precise, employers can track the location of their staff whenever the device is on, raising serious questions on privacy.
The future of adaptive outreach is to use the local base transceiver station's GSM Cell ID to identify the location of a user's mobile phone, and therefore verify their identity. With this method, neither the organisation, nor the two-factor authentication security provider knows the location of the user. Instead, the security provider sends a request to the mobile operator asking whether a user's mobile phone is within a trusted cell. The operator will simultaneously come back and say either yes or no, never revealing which cell they are in. If no, the user will be prompted so sign in using the full 2FA method.
Individuals already trust their mobile network provider to keep their location secure, and this way their location data never leaves its sphere of trust.
The ultimate solution for both the CIO and the end-user's needs is an authentication method that's so quick, simple and secure, there's no need for it to be adaptive. Near Field Communication (NFC)-based mobile authentication for example, can securely transfer all the information required to enable a browser to start up, connect to the required URL, and then automatically enter the user id, password and second factor passcode in one seamless logon.
NFC isn't just limited to mobile phones either. Wearable technology, highly personal in nature, can also be utilised, enabling users to authenticate using their smart watch by simply tapping their wrists against a corresponding device.
This effectively creates a solution that's even quicker than entering a simple user name and password. The CIO is then safe in the knowledge that their end points are covered, and the user is happy authenticating their way. So question, is adaptive authentication as secure as it should be an everything its cracked up to be?

North America to Lead Global Wearable Technology Market, Healthcare Sector Dominates Demand : Transparency Market Research
Albany - NY, Oct. 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Transparency Market Research, a leading U.S.-based market research and analysis firm, has released a new report on the global market for wearable technology. This comprises devices worn on the body rather than carried around like other consumer electronics. The two main purposes of wearable technology are to monitor various bodily markers and to keep the user connected to the digital world by syncing to parent electronic devices such as smartphones. Within the former, some wearable devices can also compute data gained from the markers they monitor and take actions such as drug delivery in response.The market for wearable technology is on the rise owing to growing demand from younger demographics and the high computing power wearable devices provide in a relatively small and compact size. The global wearable technology market, according to TMR's research report, was worth US$750 million in 2012. It is expected to make further gains in the coming years, at a CAGR of 40.8% from 2012 to 2018. The 2018 value of the global wearable technology market is expected to be US$5.8 billion, a jump of close to 800% on its 2012 value.The TMR report, titled 'Wearable Technology Market - Global Scenario, Trends, Industry Analysis, Size, Share and Forecast 2012 - 2018', is available for sale on TMR's website.

The report categorizes the global wearable technology market by end use into the following sections: Fitness and wellness, further subcategorized into smart clothing and smart sports glasses, activity monitors, and sleep sensors; the infotainment sector, further subcategorized into smartwatches, augmented reality headsets, and smart glasses; the healthcare and medical sector, further subcategorized into continuous glucose monitors, smart drug delivery devices, wearable patches, and other monitors; the industrial and military sector, further subcategorized into hand-worn terminals and augmented reality headsets.

Growing awareness among the global populace regarding their wellbeing, the major driving factor of the global wearable technology market, is reflected in the hierarchy of the market, as the medical and healthcare end-use sector took up a dominant 35.1% share in 2012. Fitness and wellness followed the healthcare sector as the largest end user of wearable electronic devices. Continuous glucose monitors are a significant segment in the medical and healthcare sector owing to the growing prevalence of diabetes in the emerging economies of Asia Pacific and Latin America. Insulin delivery devices also play a major role in the dominance of the medical and healthcare sector in the global wearable technology market.By geography, the global market for wearable tech is divided into North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Rest of the World. Due to a high proportion of the population in the U.S. and Canada being tech-savvy, health-conscious, and affluent enough to purchase and use wearable devices, North America is expected to remain the leading regional segment of the global wearable technology market, with an expected 43% share by 2019.
Browse Press Release: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/pressrelease/wearable-technology.htm
However, lack of such consumers is hampering wearable technology in regions such as Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Africa. The market is expected to remain above par in these regions, but growth will be slow and prone to fluctuations.Major players in the global wearable technology market include Adidas, Medtronic, Abbott Laboratories, Eurotech, Sony, Nike, and Google Inc.

The global mHealth market benefits primarily from a combination of rising awareness about the benefits of mHealth services and rising ubiquity of 3G and 4G communication networks. The convenience of mHealth services to both doctors and patients has come to the fore in recent years, thanks to growing preference for homecare, as rehabilitation in the comforts in their own homes is preferred by a majority of patients. Homecare also eliminates the hospitalization bills for patients and frees up hospital resources for other, perhaps more urgent uses. This, according to TMR analysts, is one of the most prominent drivers of the mHealth services market.The growing demand for homecare is complemented by the emergence of next-gen communication technologies, which have made the rise of mHealth services possible. While 'mHealth' was limited to calls between the patient and the doctor in the past, the emergence of 3G and 4G communication technologies has made it possible for the two parties to hold video calls, making the interaction more intimate.

mHealth services also include monitoring and diagnostic services that would not have been possible without modern smartphone technology. Thus, the unending rise of the smartphone market has broadened the horizons of the global mHealth services market.Accordingly, the dominant application segment of the global mHealth market is that of remote monitoring, collaboration, and consultancy. This segment is expected to grow at a stunning CAGR in excess of 28% in the forecast period, considerably higher than the overall market's CAGR. This segment is also aided by the growing geriatric population all over the world, since elderly people are more likely to fall prey to chronic diseases that require long-term monitoring, and also to prefer homecare over hospitalization.
