New Kaspersky service provides alerts on cyberthreats

The new Kaspersky Digital Footprint Intelligence service delivers instant customer updates on weak points within an organization. It provides the customer with information on threats revealed by numerous open sources and resources which usually have limited access as well as being enriched with results from Kaspersky threat research. Thanks to this, SOC and CERT security analysts can be aware of what cybercriminals are able to find out about their organization, and any attack vectors they are likely to exploit, to better prepare their defense strategy.
“Data is the lifeblood of business. It supports building strong relationships with stakeholders, improving products to fit customer needs and exceeding competitors, and any incident affecting sensitive information. Whether a targeted cyberattack leading to theft of a customer database or leakage of trade secrets — this can negatively affect a company’s reputation and result in financial losses. That’s why we have added a set of new services to the Kaspersky Threat Intelligence Portal so customers can keep up-to-date with the most relevant cyberthreats,” said Sergey Martsynkyan, head of B2B product marketing at Kaspersky.
According to the latest survey of IT security leaders conducted by 451 Research and commissioned by Kaspersky, the majority of CISOs (64 percent) agreed that speed and quality of incident response handling are the main metrics to measure performance in the role. However, as a company has numerous assets exposed online, it becomes harder for security analysts to keep everything in sight and react to the most significant threats in time.
Kaspersky Digital Footprint Intelligence helps companies to understand the ways in which cybercriminals can successfully attack them, identify what information is available to an attacker and find out if their infrastructure has already been compromised by offering analytics on threats aimed specifically against the organization.
The service is built on insights from Kaspersky experts who have pieced together a comprehensive picture of customers’ current attack status, identifying weaknesses in the network perimeter, threats from cybercriminals, malicious activity and data leaks.

iCAUR V27 conquers city roads with new energy technology

A media test drive event focused on premium on-road driving was held in Jeddah. On Feb. 5, iCAUR invited representatives from media outlets, including leading automotive outlet Motory, to take part in an in-depth driving experience featuring the all-round hybrid SUV V27 across urban roads and intercity highways.
Guests gathered at Jeddah’s premium landmark, Millionaire Restaurant, where the iCAUR Saudi Arabia team introduced the V27’s design philosophy and key technologies. Open discussions followed, helping members of the media gain a clearer understanding of iCAUR’s brand vision and the V27’s core strengths ahead of the test drive.
The test drive route covered urban roads in Jeddah as well as inter-city highways leading to King Abdullah Economic City, providing an ideal setting to evaluate the V27’s on-road performance across varied conditions. During long-distance highway driving, range and power remain key considerations, and the iCAUR V27 demonstrated solid on-road performance. As the brand’s first mass-production model equipped with the Golden REEV system, the V27 features a dedicated 1.5T range-extender engine with a thermal efficiency of 45.79 percent. It generates 3.71 kWh of electricity per liter of fuel and delivers a combined range of over 1,000 km, effectively addressing long-distance travel concerns.
On city streets with moderate traffic, the V27 impressed with its smooth and quiet ride. The electric motors deliver responsive, linear acceleration, with seamless start-stop performance that keeps driving relaxed even in traffic. Once on open intercity highways, pressing the accelerator fully unleashes 455 hp from the dual motors, propelling the SUV from zero to 100 km/h in about five seconds. Overtaking and lane changes feel effortless, with no hint of lag at any point.
Even more impressive, this five-meter-long SUV, with a chassis tuned by the internationally renowned racing team Prodive and equipped with an intelligent all-wheel drive system, maintained precise handling at high-speed corners. The steering felt responsive and refined, while the suspension offered solid support, completely defying the typical perception of large SUVs as cumbersome. “I didn’t expect such a large SUV to handle so nimbly — it was enjoyable to drive from start to finish,” one media guest remarked after the test drive. “The intelligent cockpit exceeded all expectations, making long-distance driving both comfortable and enjoyable!”
During the test drive, several media representatives praised the V27’s Stellar Cockpit. The 15.4-inch 3K HD touchscreen delivers crisp, detailed visuals, while the smart infotainment system powered by the 8155 chip ensures smooth operation comparable to a premium tablet, with seamless swiping and no lag. Meanwhile, a temperature-controlled armrest compartment, along with ventilated and heated seats precisely calibrated to the driver’s comfort, kept the driving experience enjoyable throughout the long-distance journey.
Previous test drives at Riyadh’s Edge of the World demonstrated the V27’s off-road capabilities under challenging conditions. The Jeddah media test drive, however, offered a first-hand experience of the V27’s impressive performance in city commuting and intercity highway scenarios. It not only overcomes the typical trade-off between power and range found in conventional new energy vehicles but also seamlessly combines intelligent technology with precise handling, meeting the key expectations of Saudi drivers for on-road performance.
As a model tailored for the Middle East market, the iCAUR V27 made its global debut in the UAE on Feb. 8, followed by a launch in Bahrain on Feb. 10. The arrival of the V27 is expected to bring fresh energy and new possibilities to the region’s premium new energy mobility segment.
