NAVEX Enhances Communication with AI-Driven Translations

NAVEX Global

NAVEX, the leader in integrated risk and compliance management software, announces the launch of a new NAVEX One platform shared service: dynamic machine translations. This first-to-market addition in the governance, risk and compliance (GRC) space will empower organizations operating across different countries to overcome language barriers, enabling accurate risk and compliance-related communication between employees, third parties and program administrators. NAVEX understands the challenges organizations face in maintaining accurate communication when dealing with sensitive data arising from risk and compliance tasks. Many organizations struggle with language barriers, hindering effective collaboration. With varying language skills among responders, the potential for misunderstandings and misinterpretations can be detrimental to decision-making and compliance efforts – especially in time-sensitive cases. "NAVEX is pioneering the future of machine translations within the GRC space, directly tackling the complexities of multilingual communication," stated A.G. Lambert, chief product officer at NAVEX. "The integration of secure machine translation into NAVEX One makes it simple for GRC professionals to translate disclosures, assessments, and responses, leading to better communication and faster resolution." The introduction of dynamic machine translations addresses these issues and improves communication efficiency. With advanced artificial intelligence technology, this shared service allows end users to translate directly from the NAVEX One user interface. How machine translations work In the past, administrators encountered the repetitive task of manually copying text, relying on external translation tools, and then painstakingly inputting the translations to proceed with their workflow. However, with the introduction of the machine translations shared service built on Amazon Web Services (AWS), administrators are now equipped to address important matters promptly and efficiently, leading to quicker resolution rates. Moreover, administrators can assess third-party entities proficiently, regardless of the languages they speak or the answers they provide. The user-friendly NAVEX One interface makes translating disclosures, evaluations, and responses easy, promoting smooth communication and understanding. "By relying on the broadest and deepest set of cloud services on AWS, including Amazon Translate, NAVEX is able to use machine translations within the governance, risk and compliance space, directly tackling the complexities of multilingual communication,” stated Venky Nagapudi, Senior Product Management Leader, Amazon Translate, AWS. “The work between NAVEX and AWS makes it easy to translate disclosures, assessments, and responses, leading to better communication and faster resolution." Key benefits of NAVEX One machine translations include: Multilingual support: The system supports 75 languages, facilitating seamless communication with stakeholders worldwide. Accurate and reliable: Powered by advanced neural network technology, the feature ensures precise translation of critical information. Streamlined workflow: The translation functionality integrates seamlessly into existing GRC workflows, saving time and effort for administrators and responders. Cost-effective translations: Organizations can deliver faster results and decrease operational costs by reducing the need for external translation services. Data privacy: Advanced technical and physical measures, including encryption at rest and in transit, are used to prevent unauthorized access or sharing of content. Incorporating a dynamic machine translation service highlights NAVEX's continued commitment to fostering innovative solutions throughout the NAVEX One platform. By seamlessly integrating artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities, NAVEX continues to empower companies to overcome language obstacles, promoting cross-cultural teamwork and elevating the effectiveness of GRC processes. As NAVEX continues to leverage AI and ML, it cements its position as a leader in cutting-edge technology within the GRC space. The NAVEX One GRC – Information System Multilingual Machine Translation marks a bold stride in NAVEX’s innovative journey following the recent launch of the NAVEX Compliance Assistant. NAVEX's unwavering commitment to AI/ML innovation propels the governance, risk, and compliance landscape into a new era. By harnessing the power of AI, NAVEX is reshaping the compliance landscape, streamlining intricate processes, and automating tasks.

Technology ETF XLK Offers Investors Big Industry Names

Select Sector SPDR

Technology touches so much in the world, from businesses and industries of nearly every kind, to personal lives. Every facet of the economy is connected to and reliant on technology. And with the increasing prevalence and adoption of Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) that trend will only continue. That’s why technology could be a critical component to any diversified portfolio. Every advisor and investor should evaluate the sector in their investment plans. Google, Amazon, Apple, Meta (Facebook), Nvidia, and others have gone from start-ups 20 years ago to corporate giants of the world, with business models and products that are difficult to compete with, much less beat. But deciding which tech stock to buy comes with a potential solution. The Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund ( XLK ) offers easy and affordable access to this crucial piece of the economy in an index fund offering exposure to 65* of the biggest tech companies in the U.S. Top Holdings The Technology Select Sector SPDR fund’s top two holdings, Apple and Microsoft, make up more than 45% of the ETF’s holdings – over 20% each. Along with chip-maker Nvidia, the third largest holding at 5.04%, XLK offers a diverse technology fund that represents the economy in many ways. XLK is actively traded on the NYSE Arca and offers an investor-friendly expense ratio of 0.10%**. With more than $50 billion in assets under management, XLK can be the go-to choice for technology exposure in a well-diversified portfolio. The fund’s focus on large-cap companies is a key component. The constituents of XLK are not start-ups, but rather well-established technology businesses. Why Tech? How does a tech ETF like XLK fit into a portfolio? The short answer is, significantly in the long term. No industry fuels the economy more than technology. Every facet of life today has technology behind it. XLK provides investment results that, before expenses, correspond generally to the price and yield performance of the Technology Select Sector Index. Whether employed strategically or tactically, XLK offers a more focused approach compared to traditional style-based investing. The ETF offers exposure to technology hardware, storage, and peripherals; software; communications equipment; semiconductors and semiconductor equipment; IT services; and electronic equipment, instruments, and components. This sector is well covered with broad exposure via XLK. DISCLAIMER: This is a work of research and should not be taken as investment or financial advice.

One may not invest directly in an index. Transparent ETFs provide daily disclosure of portfolio holdings and weightings All ETFs are subject to risk, including loss of principal. Sector ETF products are also subject to sector risk and nondiversification risk, which generally will result in greater price fluctuations than the overall market.

COMCAST EXPANDING TO 3,400 HOMES AND BUSINESSES IN SPRING HILL, KS

Comcast Greater Kansas City

Comcast announced that 50% of Spring Hill residents can now sign up for its smart, fast and reliable fiber-rich network. This expansion brings residential broadband speeds faster than 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) and business speeds up to 100 Gbps to 3,400 additional homes and businesses in the area by early 2024. As part of this work, the company is also investing $9 million in a 2-year project to expand its fiber-rich network infrastructure over 75 miles in the area. "Spring Hill welcomes Comcast's investment in our community. A broadband expansion project like this strengthens workforce development, education and employment,” said Spring Hill Mayor Joe Berkey. “A robust broadband infrastructure allows Spring Hill to attract businesses seeking to locate or expand their operations here. I am grateful for Comcast’s commitment to expanding broadband access in our growing community.” In the last three years, Comcast has invested nearly $40.3 million in the State of Kansas including capital expenditures, employee wages and benefits, taxes and fees and charitable giving. The company has invested more than $11.4 million in technology and infrastructure, including upgrades to their network to deliver innovative, reliable and affordable broadband service to everyone in the Comcast footprint in Kansas. “Ensuring all Spring Hill residents and businesses have access to reliable, high-speed internet is a top priority for Comcast,” said Kalyn Hove, Regional Senior Vice President for Comcast. “As the world we live in becomes increasingly digital, we remain focused on not only bringing our broadband network to Spring Hill homes and businesses, but also on future-proofing our network to meet the ever-increasing appetite for education, business and entertainment.” Powered by the Xfinity 10G Network Comcast’s network and Internet experience are powering homes and businesses today and into the future: Ultimate Capacity: Xfinity customers connect nearly 1 billion devices across the company’s network annually. The Xfinity 10G Network with the next-generation Xfinity gateways deliver the most advanced WiFi technology carrying three times more bandwidth to power streaming, gaming, videoconferencing, and more, simultaneously. Fastest Internet: More than a third of Xfinity Internet customers subscribe to gigabit speed products, and symmetrical gig speeds are coming to the first homes this year. Unprecedented Coverage: The latest Xfinity Gateway provides a more reliable connection throughout the home. Customers can get wall-to-wall WiFi coverage with a powerful Xfinity WiFi Boost Pod that extends coverage to hard-to-reach areas, with plans for an offering of increased support for in-home WiFi through a “boost guarantee” later this year. Most Reliable Connection: Comcast is scaling the nation’s largest and most reliable network – the Xfinity 10G Network – that passes 60 million homes and businesses and counting. The company plans to launch a new device that is “storm ready” with cellular and battery backup to help keep customers connected even when the power goes out. Ultra-Low Latency: The Xfinity 10G Network and the latest Xfinity Gateway are a powerful combination that deliver ultra-low latency for those moments when response times matter most like video games, a fast-growing category with Xfinity households averaging more than one gaming console per home. Spring Hill residents will also be able to take advantage of the company’s Internet Essentials program that provides low-cost, high-speed broadband for income-constrained households. Since its inception in 2011, the program has connected more than 6,400 Kansas residents. Comcast also participates in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provides qualifying households with a $30 monthly credit toward internet and mobile services. "Our region is making great strides toward digital equity thanks to engaged community members and dedicated partners like Comcast,” said Janet McRea, Miami County Economic Development Director. “It is important for us to have reliable, affordable connections in our communities. In addition, we must have collaborations like the ones offered by Comcast that help customers utilize those connections to access vital services to move our local economy." For local businesses, Comcast Business offers a suite of connectivity, cybersecurity, managed solutions and Comcast Business Mobile products designed specifically for their employee’s needs. Powered by the nation’s largest Gig-speed broadband network, and backed by 24/7 customer support, Comcast Business is the nation’s largest cable and Internet provider to small and mid-size businesses and one of the leading providers to larger organizations in the Enterprise market. Comcast Business has been consistently recognized by industry analysts and associations as a leader and innovator, and one of the fastest growing providers of Ethernet services. Supporting local communities has been core to Comcast’s DNA. In 2023, Comcast will sponsor several community events with the City of Spring Hill and the Spring Hill Recreation Commission including the Spring Hill Fishing Derby, Big Truck Day and Breakfast with Santa. As a sponsor of the Spring Hill Fall Festival, Comcast’s staff has been able to connect directly with residents to provide information about the services they offer.

Watch Champions League Online for Free with a VPN

Digital Heroes

Looking to watch the Champions League online for free? You've come to the right place. In this guide, I'll show you the method I've been using since 2019, which has helped me save significantly. It involves tapping into foreign TV channels that broadcast the Champions League at no cost and using trusted VPN services like CyberGhost * or NordVPN * to overcome geo-restrictions. Moreover, I'll highlight how you can take advantage of free trials on certain streaming platforms to catch the action. Hint: The trick works for the Champions League, Europe League and Conference League. Let's get started. Champions League Free Live Stream Channels For the ultimate football enthusiast, having access to live stream channels is essential. Thankfully, several channels across various countries offer free live streams of the Champions League. However, remember, due to regional restrictions, these channels may not be accessible from everywhere. To get around this, using a VPN becomes essential. Below is a curated list of free live stream channels for the Champions League: ServusTV (Austria) ORF1 (Austria) Gol Play (Spain) RTE 2 (Ireland) TV8 (Italy) RMC Story (France) ViX (USA) RTL (Luxembourg) Canale 5 (Italy) RTL Zwee (Luxembourg) Club RTL (Belgium) MatchTV (Russia) M4Sport (Hungary) To fully harness the potential of these free streaming channels, it's vital to use a VPN (Virtual Private Network). These channels have geo-restrictions in place, meaning they're only accessible from specific regions. With a VPN, you can virtually place your device in the broadcasting country, effectively bypassing these restrictions. So, for instance, if you want to access ServusTV from outside Austria, simply connect your VPN to an Austrian server and navigate to the channel's website. This way, no matter where you are in the world, the thrilling Champions League matches remain just a click away. Remember to choose a reputable VPN service for seamless streaming and security. Step-by-step Guides: Streaming Champions League Matches Using a VPN As an example, we are using two streams, but you can follow these steps for all other streams in the same way. Accessing Streams from Ireland (RTE 2) and Austria (ServusTV) Choose a reputable VPN service like CyberGhost * Install the VPN and connect to a server located in either Ireland or Austria. Navigate to the streaming platform's website or app (RTE 2 for Ireland, ServusTV for Austria). Enjoy the match live without any restrictions! Use of VPNs to Bypass Restrictions: Accessing Restricted Content with Ease VPNs, or Virtual Private Networks, serve as a bridge to bypass these geographical restrictions. By using a VPN, viewers can reroute their internet connection to a server in a different country, making it appear as though they're accessing the internet from that location. This method effectively tricks streaming platforms into granting access to their content. Apart from accessing restricted content, VPNs also offer enhanced security and anonymity while browsing the web. Thanks to our friends from vpnonline.com with providing the information how to watch the champions league online. Country-specific Broadcasting Rights and Platforms: Where to Watch the Champions League Depending on Your Location Different countries have their unique broadcasting partners for the UEFA Champions League. Below is a list of platforms for select countries: USA: Paramount+ is the go-to platform, offering comprehensive coverage of all matches. UK: BT Sport holds exclusive rights, providing both live broadcasts and highlight packages. Australia: Stan Sport is the primary broadcaster, ensuring fans don't miss a single moment. India: SonyLIV streams the matches, with additional coverage on Sony's TV channels. For fans outside of these regions, remember the handy VPN trick to bypass geographical restrictions and enjoy the game! Stream Both Conference League and Europa League with same trick The technique to watch the Champions League matches works just as effectively for the Europa League and Conference League. Use the same steps to access both tournaments and stay updated with all the fixtures. UEFA Champions League Schedule: Key Dates to Remember The 2022-2023 Champions League season promises a series of thrilling encounters.
