Siemens Digital Industries Software brings AI, collaboration to portfolio

Siemens Digital Industries Software is bringing AI-assisted design and greater cloud-based collaboration to its Solid Edge 2024 software, product design and engineering software for the mainstream and part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio of industry software. Available immediately, the latest updates enable manufacturers of all sizes to begin or expand their digital transformation strategy, reuse data more efficiently and to drive innovation at the front-end of mechanical and electrical design and manufacturing through new applications of AI in product design, greater cloud-based data sharing and collaboration.

Solid Edge 2024 delivers AI-assisted design to Solid Edge for the first time.Now, when replacing parts in an assembly, the new AI assembly relationships capability intelligently predicts and offers valid alternatives. Elsewhere, an AI-powered user interface learns use patterns to present relevant commands, in the right context at the cursor, while a new AI-assisted editing capability in Solid Edge CAM Pro can guide users through the machining operation editing process, offering suggestions based on the machining application and learned part-programming style.

These updates build on existing intelligent modelling capabilities already in the system such as synchronous technology’s ability to recognise and maintain design intent in real time, even on models coming from other systems. When used aside Solid Edge’s generative design capabilities to automatically design concepts based on defined geometric and functional constraints, they can remove repetitive work from common activities, speed design and enable designers and engineers to focus on true exploration and innovation.

“Solid Edge 2024 helps us work smarter and be more productive,” said David Iverson, Ariel Corporation, whose compressors can be found in over 100 countries.

“Incorporating AI into our design processes will cut down time spent on tedious tasks, letting us do more of the fun stuff.”

Subscriptions to Solid Edge SaaS include access to cloud-based data sharing and collaboration with the Teamcenter Share app. Delivered as a benefit of any Siemens Xcelerator as a service subscription, Teamcenter Share is a set of cloud-based capabilities that enable collaboration with colleagues, partners and customers, from anywhere, on any device.

The latest update brings streamlined integration across Siemens’ broad range of industry software, improved out-of-the-box integration connecting Solid Edge to Teamcenter Share, interactive previews of both Office documents and 3D data, kanban board display enhancements, improved assignment/status visibility, increased storage, and expanded file support.

The new Solid Edge Design Configurator Connect software delivers instant online product configuration to meet customers’ specific requirements. Built on existing Solid Edge Design Configurator software, this allows sales engineers and end customers to configure products via a web-based portal, without the need for a local Solid Edge install.

The 2024 update also delivers productivity enhancements along with extended functionality across the entire product suite. Users will experience a gain in large assembly performance (now 9x faster when initially opening complex product models), as well as new real-world environments that automatically update with model movement.

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...
