Announcing the launch of Falcon, a next-generation application security product to protect against new AI-driven cybersecurity threats.

MOUNT LAUREL, NJ / Evertise AI PR / November 1, 2023 / Agilence Inc., the leading loss prevention analytics provider for retailers, grocers, and restaurants, today announced the launch of its new Inventory Module. The module provides a purpose-built add-on to the Agilence Analytics platform that revolutionizes the way retailers address stock management, providing users greater insight into their inventory.

Application Security practices are lagging behind threats. Falcon uses AI-driven techniques to provide automated protection over third-party and open-source dependencies in Node.js applications. The innovative solution equips CTOs and CISOs with advanced zero trust capabilities, enabling them to better understand the behavior of their open-source libraries, enhance their security posture, and safeguard sensitive data from software supply chain attacks.

Key features of Require Security’s Falcon product include:

1.Zero trust protection for Node.js dependencies: The solution ensures the highest level of security for businesses that rely on open-source libraries, shielding them from potential vulnerabilities and threats.

2.Comprehensive understanding of Node.js third-party library behavior and dependencies: The product empowers businesses to gain insights into how their open-source libraries function, allowing them to identify and address potential risks proactively.

3.Real-time alerts for security operations teams: Require Security’s product is designed to alert security operations teams immediately if an open-source library attempts to access sensitive resources when it shouldn’t, enabling quick and effective incident response.

As a more advanced alternative to the older generation of RASP tools, Require Security’s solution provides technology companies with deeper insights into their application behavior, including legacy applications, allowing them to detect and prevent threats in real time.

“The Falcon application security product is designed to meet the needs of commercial and government organizations that are concerned about the growing threat of software supply chain attacks,” said Jason Wilbur, CEO of Require Security. “Our team has worked tirelessly to develop a solution that not only addresses the challenges faced by technology companies utilizing open source libraries but also sets a new standard for runtime application security tools on the market.”

New analytic module combines inventory and sales data to help retailers detect shrink and improve customer experience to combat $1.77 billion inventory distortion problem

BOSTON, MA / Evertise AI PR / November 2, 2023 / Require Security, a cybersecurity company spun out of the storied R&D cyber security group Aarno Labs, announces the launch of a groundbreaking runtime application security product, Falcon.

The module merges inventory shrink data seamlessly with point-of-sale (POS) information to provide insight into on-hand levels and periodic adjustments, inventory buildup, lack of replenishment, and more. Now, retailers can proactively detect inventory discrepancies and internal theft, while gaining deeper insights into individual store performance. The Inventory Module powers retailers’ ability to make informed decisions regarding stock levels, replenishment strategies, and store operations, ultimately contributing to enhanced profitability and improved customer experience.

“For retailers to provide the best possible experience, customers need to find what they want when they visit a store,” said Russ Hawkins, CEO at Agilence. “The Inventory Module provides visibility to accurately understand their in-store inventory and ensures that customers are satisfied and delighted by finding what they need. The module also identifies theft and lost sales, directly improving retailers’ margins and profitability.”

The IHL Group estimates inventory distortion to be a $1.77 trillion dollar problem worldwide, most of which is preventable. While existing inventory solutions can cripple users with information overload, the easy-to-use Inventory Module is designed to surface actionable insights that can help users to pinpoint shoplifting activity, identify dishonest cashiers, understand distribution center impact on shrink, improve merchandising and promotion activity, and identify the many sources of inventory loss.

With the launch of the Inventory Module, Agilence continues to establish itself as an industry leader in retail, restaurant, and grocery analytics. Agilence’s recent eCommerce Module release provides deep visibility into retailers’ growing e-Commerce operations particularly around inventory, while the Inventory Module addresses brick-and-mortar inventory operations. New and existing customers can now access out-of-the-box functionality to immediately gain clarity over their inventory and improve store strategy, protect their margins, and provide a better customer experience.
