"We at Releafline Global are excited by the opportunity to distribute an industry changing technology like grow.droid," said Maurice Jammer, Operations Director at Releafline. "The social media response to the demo videos has been astonishing. HempTech is going to lead revolutionary change in the Cannabis Industry. We are honored to be a part of the movement."
The grow.droid platform will be available as planned for lease in early 2016. A limited number was available for pre-order at the Marijuana Business Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, which was on November 12th & 13th.

Gartner Names Proofpoint a Leader in 2015 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving for Fourth Consecutive Year
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov. 16, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Proofpoint, Inc., (NASDAQ:PFPT), a leading next-generation cybersecurity company, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the leaders quadrant of the 2015 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving for the fourth consecutive year. The report provides a detailed overview of the enterprise information archiving market and evaluates vendors based on completeness of vision and ability to execute.
"Many of the world's largest organizations rely on the Proofpoint Enterprise Archive solution, which helps organizations comply with complex regulatory requirements and provide streamlined eDiscovery of all corporate data," said Gary Steele, CEO of Proofpoint. "Our leading cloud solution seamlessly and massively scales to handle the ever-increasing amount of data the 21st century organization creates. We believe our leadership in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving for the fourth consecutive year clearly demonstrates our staying power and validates that our ongoing strategy, vision and product development are extremely effective in mitigating information risk for the enterprise."
Proofpoint Enterprise Archive

Built with an architecture explicitly designed to leverage the cloud, Proofpoint allows IT teams to quickly and securely deliver value back to the business. With visibility into and supervision over regulated data, IT burdens are lifted to service eDiscovery and compliance requests, reducing risk and exposure.
Further, the ever-increasing amount of data that organizations and their people create today increasingly favors a cloud deployment model. In fact, according to the 2015 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Information Archiving: "Gartner is seeing a majority of organizations selecting SaaS for new or updated messaging data archiving implementations." Proofpoint is a proven leader in cloud deployments, providing seamless and massive scalability against unstructured data growth, and has a presence across North America and EMEA to meet data sovereignty requirements.
Proofpoint Enterprise Archive enables organizations to control access to information at all times. With broad content support for all electronically stored information (ESI) including email, files, instant messaging and social media content—eDiscovery and legal holds are made simple. The self-service functionality allows legal teams to access all ESI, without IT involvement, diminishing costs and speeding response time. All data stored in the archive is secured via Proofpoint's patented DoubleBlind™ Key Architecture, ensuring sophisticated encryption and control of your data. With a search performance service level agreement (SLA) that is financially-backed, organizations can quickly access email, documents, instant messages and social media content in seconds. This functionality scales even as archived data volume reaches to hundreds of terabytes in size.
To further extend visibility and security, many organizations complement Proofpoint Enterprise Archive with additional Proofpoint solutions to effectively secure and archive communication channels like email and social media. Organizations can manage a wide range of information risks with a comprehensive suite of information security, compliance and governance offerings.

Sphere 3D Glassware 2.0(TM) Application Containerization Technology Increases Financial Advisor Productivity for Canada's Fastest Growing Mortgage and Lending Provider
SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sphere 3D Corp. (NASDAQ:ANY), a containerization, virtualization and data management solutions provider, today announced its successful project installation of Glassware 2.0™ at Dominion Lending Centres Mortgage Village (DLC Mortgage Village). DLC Mortgage Village's lending professionals can securely access mission critical financial legacy applications and industry credit facilities using Glassware 2.0™ whether in the office or remotely via PCs and the latest mobile devices. Sphere 3D's GW2000 appliance, which utilizes Glassware 2.0 containerization technology, provides DLC Mortgage Village financial advisors with secure, full access to banking credit, authentication and processing systems (normally only available in branch).
This installation was accomplished without the need to re-code, re-tool or re-format applications or content – ensuring zero disruption to existing business processes. In fact, the project installation was filmed live (see November 10, 2015 video at https://live.sphere3d.com/pastevents) and took under one hour to complete. As DLC Mortgage Village expands its locations, Sphere 3D application containerization solutions provides DLC Mortgage Village with the ability to offer better service and recruit qualified advisors, by having access to the latest technology.
"DLC Mortgage Village's selection of Sphere 3D is an ideal example of how on-cloud and on-premise deployment strategies are enabling financial institutions to securely boost productivity and customer service – by modernizing branch-based solutions," said Eric Kelly, CEO of Sphere 3D. "This is an exciting venture for Sphere 3D, as we provide DLC Mortgage Village with high availability access to vital financial data, credit approval and lending systems for advisors, branches and remote users across multiple cities. This allows DLC Mortgage Village to operate as a cohesive team and further demonstrates our technology leadership in secure application virtualization for mission-critical processes."
According to Jonathan Tillger, Co-Owner of DLC Mortgage Village, "Our Glassware 2.0 environment is essential to maintaining customer service in the competitive mortgage and commercial lending market place – it allows us to quickly access customer files and credit systems securely from any location. Our team is expanding rapidly. We needed to select a technology that would grow with our business and support multiple office advisors and key administrative personnel so they can work remotely, in fact from as far as 6,000 miles from our office headquarters. We don't have time to focus on managing technology, as that distracts us from our core business. I was pleasantly surprised that Sphere 3D's Glassware 2.0 solution took under one hour to deploy! We are excited by the opportunity to provide modern mobile tools to our team and confident that sensitive customer data is safely stored, as Glassware 2.0 eliminates potential security vulnerabilities."
About Dominion Lending Centre Mortgage Village
Dominion Lending Centres Mortgage Village, is an independently owned and operated branch of Canada's fastest growing national mortgage and leasing company – which has a network of 350 branches across Canada. Dominion Lending Centre Mortgage Village (DLC Mortgage Village) based in Mississauga Ontario offers expert advice, with access to more than 230 lending institutions, including big banks, credit unions and trust companies. DLC Mortgage Village's licensed team of mortgage professionals offer a vast array of available mortgage and commercial leasing products for equipment.

About Glassware 2.0
Sphere 3D's Glassware 2.0 container-based platform extends the useful life of applications by making it easy to move applications from a physical PC or workstation to a virtual environment. Unlike hypervisor-based approaches, with Glassware 2.0 containers, the application's host OS is never installed on the appliance (server). Instead, Glassware 2.0 provides only the necessary elements of the operating system (kernel) an application needs to run. Organizations with older applications can now continue to run them on robust and current hardware platforms free from fears of end of life support and security vulnerabilities. Glassware 2.0 can virtualize 16, 32, and 64-bit Microsoft Windows applications and deliver them with native functionality to most end user devices including Chromebooks, Windows 10 Devices, iPads, thin clients, tablets, etc.
About Sphere 3D
Sphere 3D Corp. (NASDAQ:ANY) delivers containerization and virtualization technologies along with data management products that enable workload-optimized solutions. We achieve this through a combination of containerized applications, virtual desktops, virtual storage and physical hyper-converged platforms. Sphere 3D's value proposition is simple and direct—we allow organizations to deploy a combination of public, private or hybrid cloud strategies while backing them up with state of the art storage solutions. Sphere 3D, along with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Overland Storage and Tandberg Data, has a strong portfolio of brands including Glassware 2.0™, SnapCLOUD™, SnapScale®, SnapServer®, V3, RDX®, and NEO®.

Deloitte Names Varonis One of the Fastest Growing Tech Companies in North America
NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNS), the leading provider of software solutions for unstructured, human-generated enterprise data, today announced that it has been recognized as one of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500™ list. During the period of 2011-2014 Varonis' revenues grew 154.8%.
Yaki Faitelson, Varonis Co-Founder and CEO, said, "We began more than a decade ago developing software to enable organizations to manage and protect their human-generated data, which we saw growing exponentially in terms of volume, importance and sensitivity. We have grown rapidly because Varonis solutions address an ever-expanding set of use cases, especially in helping to prevent data leakage from cyber attacks. It has since become clear that organizations cannot reverse or even slow the trend of cybersecurity disasters – which threaten their ability to conduct business – without having Varonis as a core component of their infrastructure."
Organizations store massive quantities of unstructured data – files, emails, spreadsheets, presentations – comprising some of their most valuable and sensitive information assets. These assets are frequently stolen in high-profile breaches, either by insiders who abuse their access or by outsiders who compromise insiders' credentials. Varonis has helped thousands of customers protect their unstructured data, through analyzing user activity with files and emails, permissions and file system metadata, as well as file content.
The company recently released the newest version of the industry-leading Varonis Metadata Framework platform, Varonis 6.2.5. The newest release includes major enhancements that represent the most advanced analytics and predictive threat models available to help organizations stem the rising tide of data breaches. Specifically, it protects organizations against breaches that are caused or exacerbated by previously undetected insider access and behavior, such as compromise of privileged accounts and privilege abuse.
"Amid a fierce business climate, there seems to be no shortage of new and established companies that are unlocking a seemingly unlimited potential for growth and advancement through technology's continued disruption and proliferation across industries," said Sandra Shirai, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and U.S. technology, media and telecommunications leader. "It is inspiring to witness the innovative ways that companies are incorporating emerging technologies for business gains, be it cognitive computing or the Internet of Things. We congratulate all those ranked on this year's Fast 500 and look forward to seeing their continued growth into 2016."
"Through the efforts and utilization of new and emerging technologies from these companies, we are witnessing greater business demands from across almost all industries," added Jim Atwell, national managing partner of the emerging company practice, Deloitte & Touche LLP.

ConnectWise® Empowers Enterprise Cloud Migration Management With CloudConsole™
TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 13, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ConnectWise, which transforms how technology solution providers successfully build, manage and grow their businesses, today announced its new cloud service management, monitoring and billing tool, ConnectWise CloudConsole. The solution enables technology solution providers to remain proactive in managing their systems when moving to the cloud.
ConnectWise developed CloudConsole because it saw a growing concern among technology solution providers about the management and billing of services as they moved from on-premise systems to the cloud.
“While on-premise systems are controlled, managed and maintained by technology solution providers, the cloud is not, and losing control of that can be concerning,” said Craig Fulton, general manager of ConnectWise Business Suite. “CloudConsole gives our partners a competitive advantage by enabling them to monitor and manage their cloud services with the same control as on-premise systems.”
CEO Arnie Bellini, who introduced ConnectWise CloudConsole during his keynote address at IT Nation 2015, also announced that the family of ConnectWise products and its related businesses are now consolidated into a single ConnectWise company and brand. The new organizational structure builds on the commitment to continually evolve the company in a way that furthers its mission to provide its partners with expansive, innovative and scalable solutions that drive efficiency and create revenue opportunities.
“We want our partners to understand that we’re a partner for life, and we’re committed to delivering the comprehensive, scalable solutions they need to ensure future success,” Bellini said. “With our new structure, we know we can deliver on our commitment.”
Now available in its beta version, ConnectWise CloudConsole will be available free to ConnectWise partners for a limited time, with general release scheduled for early 2016. Currently covering Microsoft Office365, ConnectWise will continue to expand the cloud-enabled applications managed by the offering.

ConnectWise® Empowers Enterprise Cloud Migration Management With CloudConsole™
TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 13, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ConnectWise, which transforms how technology solution providers successfully build, manage and grow their businesses, today announced its new cloud service management, monitoring and billing tool, ConnectWise CloudConsole. The solution enables technology solution providers to remain proactive in managing their systems when moving to the cloud.
ConnectWise developed CloudConsole because it saw a growing concern among technology solution providers about the management and billing of services as they moved from on-premise systems to the cloud.
“While on-premise systems are controlled, managed and maintained by technology solution providers, the cloud is not, and losing control of that can be concerning,” said Craig Fulton, general manager of ConnectWise Business Suite. “CloudConsole gives our partners a competitive advantage by enabling them to monitor and manage their cloud services with the same control as on-premise systems.”
CEO Arnie Bellini, who introduced ConnectWise CloudConsole during his keynote address at IT Nation 2015, also announced that the family of ConnectWise products and its related businesses are now consolidated into a single ConnectWise company and brand. The new organizational structure builds on the commitment to continually evolve the company in a way that furthers its mission to provide its partners with expansive, innovative and scalable solutions that drive efficiency and create revenue opportunities.
“We want our partners to understand that we’re a partner for life, and we’re committed to delivering the comprehensive, scalable solutions they need to ensure future success,” Bellini said. “With our new structure, we know we can deliver on our commitment.”
Now available in its beta version, ConnectWise CloudConsole will be available free to ConnectWise partners for a limited time, with general release scheduled for early 2016. Currently covering Microsoft Office365, ConnectWise will continue to expand the cloud-enabled applications managed by the offering.

35 agencies purchase Spillman, 75 expand systems in Q3 of 2015
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 12, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Thirty-five public safety agencies purchased software from Spillman Technologies for the first time during the third quarter of 2015, joining more than 1,500 agencies of all sizes across the country already using Spillman software. In addition to these new agencies, 75 existing customer agencies expanded their Spillman systems by purchasing additional modules.
Petersburg Borough Police Department in Alaska has purchased Spillman's CompStat Management Dashboard, Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD), and Jail Management software. Agency personnel will use Spillman's CAD module to manage and respond to incoming calls more efficiently. Because the system is fully integrated, users will have quick access to all necessary data. Using the CAD and Jail Management modules together will reduce the likelihood of duplicating records and will simplify data entry, creating a faster and more convenient experience for agency personnel. The agency will use Spillman's CompStat Management Dashboard to detect and analyze any trends in the system data, allowing the agency's administration to make informed decisions to improve public safety throughout their community. Petersburg Borough PD is the seventh agency in Alaska to sign on with Spillman.
In Wyoming, Campbell County Sheriff's Office expanded its existing Spillman system to include Spillman's Mobile Voiceless CAD. Using this module, the agency will be able to access vital, real-time call information without using radio communication, freeing up airtime for high-priority calls. The module will enable personnel to create and manage call information, as well as update their unit statuses, directly from their laptop computers. Using Mobile Voiceless CAD, Campbell County personnel can quickly access call time logs for record keeping or reporting without requiring assistance from dispatch.
Elite Task Force, a security and investigation company based in Rutherford, N.J., purchased Spillman's cloud software solution, Spillman Nova. This web-based solution provides smaller law enforcement agencies and all security companies with the ability to create and manage all name, property, offense, vehicle, incident, and arrest records from any Internet-enabled device. Using Nova, Elite will no longer need a physical database to maintain and run its dispatch center, saving the company money and manpower. Nova will also save the agency time with its easy-to-use reporting tools, which will allow personnel to run the statistical reports their clients need.
Spillman Technologies serves more than 1,500 sheriff's offices, police departments, communication centers, correctional facilities, fire departments, and security organizations nationwide. Spillman specializes in integrated on-premises and cloud-based software solutions, including Computer-Aided Dispatch, Records Management Systems, Mobile Data & Field Reporting, Mapping & GIS, Jail Management Systems, Fire, Data Sharing, Personnel & Resources, and Analytics & Intelligence-Led Policing.
