Advantech has announced the availability of compact, energy-efficient industrial computers that leverage the new NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX, expanding its range of edge artificial intelligence (AI) systems built on the Jetson platform for smart city, intelligent manufacturing, and AIoT applications. AIoT refers to the artificial intelligence of things, or where AI meets the Internet of Things (IoT).

An NVIDIA Elite Partner, Advantech provides industrial systems powered by the Jetson platform along with industrial input-output support and remote device management to facilitate AI deployment at the edge.

Advantech's MIC-AI series come in two form factors: AI IPCs and AI NVRs. The Advantech AI IPC is a passively-cooled system design embedded with the full lineup of Jetson systems-on-module (SOMs)—including the new Jetson Xavier NX, Jetson AGX Xavier, Jetson Nano, and Jetson TX2. These systems enable AI applications in harsh environments, such as road-side deployment or on manufacturing production lines.

The MIC-710AIX is designed to withstand shock and vibrations in industrial environments with temperatures ranging from -10°C to 60°C, making it ideal for ruggedised compute-intensive embedded AI applications at the edge. The MIC-710IVX is an AI network video recorder (NVR) system enabling eight-channel IP camera video analytics for smart city applications. Internet protocol cameras (IPCs) can be accessed remotely via the Internet.

Advantech also offers the MIC-710IVA and MIC-730IVA AI NVR systems with the Jetson Nano and Jetson AGX Xavier modules for AI computing in traditional video monitoring systems. The eight-channel PoE and internal 2x 3.5" HDD design enables eight-channel IP camera video analytics for smart city applications.

The new Jetson Xavier NX with 384 CUDA cores, 48 Tensor Cores, and cloud-native capability is the ideal platform to accelerate AI applications. Bundled with the latest NVIDIA Jetpack 4.4 software development kit (SDK) and smaller than a credit card at 70 x 45 mm, the energy-efficient module delivers server-class performance — up to 21 tera operations per second (TOPS) at 15 W, or 14 TOPS at 10 W. This opens the door for embedded edge-computing devices that demand increased performance to support AI workloads but were previously constrained by size, weight, power budget, or cost.

Fortinet enhances FortiRecon to align with CTEM framework

Fortinet, the global cybersecurity provider driving the convergence of networking and security, has turned the FortiRecon platform into a comprehensive solution aligned with the continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) framework. The latest release introduces expanded internal attack surface monitoring, adversary-centric dark web intelligence, and security orchestration, all in a unified platform. These enhancements help organisations proactively identify and prioritise real-world exposures, validate risks like an attacker would, and accelerate response. “CISOs and security teams are overwhelmed by growing attack surfaces and an endless stream of unprioritised alerts,” said Nirav Shah, Senior VP of Products and Solutions at Fortinet. “With the latest enhancements to FortiRecon , we’re giving organisations an attacker’s eye view of their internal and external exposures, backed by AI-powered threat intelligence from FortiGuard Labs, real-world validation, and automated response...

Amazon Web Services (AWS), an Amazon.com company, has found* that AI adoption continues to accelerate in Singapore. In the past year alone, 27,000 1 Singapore businesses adopted AI for the first time—equivalent to over three new adopters every hour. In sum, nearly 170,000 (48%) of businesses in Singapore have adopted AI 2 , up from approximately 143,000 (40%) a year ago. This represents a 20% year-over-year growth rate, AWS said. AI adoption is the strongest in the financial services industry (71%), followed by the technology sector ( software developers, data analytics firms, cloud service providers, and digital startups) at 70%, and healthcare at 63%. Among Singapore’s businesses that have adopted AI, 82% reported an increase in revenue, at an average increase of 19%, while 90% report significant productivity improvements. A large majority (85%) of those who have adopted AI say the technology is likely to increase their growth in the next year, and 89% expect an average of 17%...
