SANS Institute Brings Cybersecurity Training and Expert-Led Sessions to GISEC Global 2025

Published

on

Dubai, UAE, 8th May 2025, ZEX PR WIRESANS Institute, the global leader in cybersecurity training and certification, is participating in GISEC Global 2025 (6-8 May 2025) at the Dubai World Trade Center. This year, SANS Institute joins GISEC Global as a strategic partner, highlighting the company’s long-term commitment to developing cybersecurity talent in the region.

From May 6 to 8, SANS also will host the SANS GISEC Academy. Located in Hall 4, SANS GISEC Academy is a community-led initiative offering three days of free-to-attend technical training sessions led by SANS Certified Instructors. These sessions are part of SANS’ mission to upskill defenders and contribute meaningfully to the UAE’s national and regional cybersecurity posture.

Each day will focus on a key cybersecurity domain. On day 1, instructor Jean-François Maes will lead a full-day track on Offensive Operations, covering topics such as malware evasion, OSINT exposure in cloud environments, and common vulnerabilities discovered over a decade of penetration testing. Day 2 shifts to Cyber Defense with Ian Reynolds, who will explore deception-based defenses, the role of AI and deepfakes in modern threat landscapes, and advanced threat hunting techniques. Day 3 will be led by Michael Hoffman, focusing on ICS/OT cybersecurity, with insights drawn from real-world incidents such as the Colonial Pipeline and Ukraine grid attacks. The sessions are tailored for cybersecurity professionals, analysts, SOC managers, and decision-makers looking to enhance their tactical and strategic defense skills.

“In the Middle East and beyond, digital infrastructure is under increasing pressure from AI-powered threats that are more deceptive, adaptive, and persistent,” said Ned Baltagi, Managing Director for the Middle East, Turkey, and Africa, SANS Institute. “From deepfake-enabled fraud to intelligent ransomware strains that evade detection, cybersecurity teams must shift from reactive defense to intelligence-driven prevention. At SANS, we’re focused on equipping professionals with the practical skills and threat context they need to defend against this next wave of AI-fueled attacks. Cybersecurity is not just a professional responsibility, but a shared priority for national safety and resilience.”

In addition to the academy, Rob T Lee, Chief of Research at SANS Institute, will take the GISEC stage for two key sessions. On May 6, Rob will speak on the Dark Stage, presenting ‘The AI Acceleration: Defending Critical Infrastructure Against Emerging Intelligent Threats’. His talk will highlight the growing use of AI in cyberattacks, the evolving “Volt/Salt Typhoon” methodology, and data-driven counter-defense strategies. On May 7, Rob will join a panel discussion on the Critical Infrastructure Stage exploring how precision AI and machine learning can secure operational technology environments.

“Attackers are no longer bound by time or complexity. What used to take weeks can now be done in minutes with tools that generate believable malware, deepfakes, and targeted phishing at scale,” said Lee. “We’re not facing yesterday’s threats moving faster, we’re facing a new kind of battlefield. Defenders need to adapt, outpace, and outthink. The hardest part isn’t finding the threat but in keeping up with how quickly it changes.”

Attendees are encouraged to visit the SANS team at Stand D75, Hall 7, where senior executives will be available to share insights and connect with the cybersecurity community.

To continue its mission of upskilling cybersecurity professionals across the region, SANS will also be hosting four training events throughout the Middle East in May: SANS Doha (May 10–15), SANS Riyadh (May 10–22), SANS Abu Dhabi (May 18–23), and SANS Dubai (May 25–30).

Quantum Projects Group Inc Announces Groundbreaking Augmented Reality Art Experience

Published

on

United States, 30th Jun 2025 – Quantum Projects Group, Inc., a Louisiana-based leader in innovation and immersive technology, is proud to announce the development of a revolutionary Augmented Reality (AR) application designed to transform the way people experience fine art. The new platform will enable users to engage with iconic artworks on a deeper, more personal level through a richly layered, immersive journey guided by state-of-the-art AR and AI technologies.

Quantum Projects Group Inc Announces Groundbreaking Augmented Reality Art Experience

Building on its strong foundation in creating immersive educational and historical experiences, Quantum Projects Group is now applying its expertise to the world of fine art. This new initiative marks a bold expansion into cultural enrichment, aiming to make art appreciation more engaging, informative, and accessible than ever before.

The AR application will offer users what the company describes as a “stroke-level experience”— starting from a virtual recreation of the artist’s studio, where users can observe the techniques, tools, and inspirations that led to the creation of masterpieces. From there, users will be virtually transported to the artist’s hometown or city, exploring how local culture, environment, and history influenced the work.

The journey continues in an immersive “virtual museum,” where users will interact with a fully integrated, AI-powered art historian. This guide will provide in-depth commentary on artistic movements such as the Italian Renaissance or the Dutch Golden Age, contextualizing the art within the broader social, political, and cultural forces of its time.

“Our goal with this application is to break down the traditional barriers to art appreciation,” said Marjorie Munro, CEO of Quantum Projects Group, Inc. “By leveraging the immersive capabilities of Augmented Reality, we can foster a deeper, more meaningful connection with these timeless works of art. It’s not just about viewing a painting — it’s about understanding its creation, its context, and its legacy.”

The Power of Augmented Reality in Art

Augmented Reality superimposes computer-generated imagery and information onto the real world, enriching the user’s environment with interactive and dynamic elements. In the realm of art, AR offers a wealth of opportunities:

  • Enhanced Engagement: Static artworks are brought to life with animation, 3D layers, and interactive features.
  • Global Accessibility: Users around the world can explore world-class art from their homes, eliminating the need for physical museum visits.
  • Integrated Education: Historical and artistic context is woven directly into the experience, providing real-time learning as users explore.
  • New Creative Frontiers: AR is emerging as a powerful new medium for digital and interactive art forms.

Quantum Projects Group’s new platform encapsulates these possibilities, combining immersive visual storytelling with AI-powered insights to redefine how users connect with art across time and culture.

This project underscores Quantum Projects Group’s ongoing mission to push the boundaries of immersive technology while making meaningful contributions to culture and education. As the application continues development, art lovers, educators, and technologists alike can look forward to a groundbreaking new way to experience the world’s artistic treasures.

Dallas-Based Wilkerson Insurance Agency Offers Catastrophic Stop Loss and Group Health Plans for Small Businesses in Dallas

Published

on

Dallas, TX, 30th June 2025, ZEX PR WIREWilkerson Insurance Agency, a Dallas-based independent insurance provider, is expanding its offerings to better serve small businesses in the region. The agency now provides catastrophic stop loss and group health insurance plans designed specifically to help small employers manage high-cost medical claims while offering reliable health benefits to their teams.

Dallas-based Wilkerson Insurance Agency introduces catastrophic stop loss and group health plans to support small businesses in managing healthcare risks and controlling insurance costs.

These new insurance options address the growing financial burden of healthcare on small business owners. Group health plans allow employers to offer affordable and comprehensive coverage to employees, which supports talent retention and workforce well-being. However, rising healthcare costs and unpredictable claims can create financial risks that many smaller companies are unprepared to handle. To address this, Wilkerson Insurance Agency offers catastrophic stop loss coverage—an effective risk management solution that protects businesses from extremely high medical claims that could otherwise disrupt budgets or force benefit reductions.

“Our goal is to give Dallas businesses the tools they need to offer strong health benefits while protecting themselves from costly claims. It’s about balancing care and cost, without compromise.”

Catastrophic stop loss coverage provides a safety net by reimbursing employers for claims that exceed a certain threshold. This allows business owners to continue providing strong group health insurance options while minimizing the risk of large, unexpected healthcare expenses. These plans are especially valuable for growing businesses that want to remain competitive in offering benefits but are also conscious of long-term financial sustainability.

A representative of Wilkerson Insurance Agency shared, “Small businesses are the backbone of the Dallas economy, and they deserve insurance solutions that work as hard as they do. By offering group health and catastrophic stop loss plans, we’re helping business owners take control of their insurance strategy without compromising the care their employees need.

The agency’s commitment to transparency and reliability ensures that businesses receive informed guidance at every step of the selection process.

As healthcare continues to be a leading concern for employees and employers alike, small business owners face mounting pressure to provide competitive benefits. These new offerings from Wilkerson Insurance Agency help businesses remain competitive while maintaining protection against financial volatility. The agency’s expertise in group health insurance in Dallas and risk management coverage, like stop loss plans, makes it a key partner for businesses navigating the complexities of employee benefits.
