DOHA, Qatar, July 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Before the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ kicks off in November an assortment of exceptional new tourism developments will open across the country. From a winter-sun wonderland to a water sports paradise, these developments each add something special to the peninsula’s eclectic mix of attractions and activities to suit every type of traveller.

One year after Qatar re-opened its borders to the world on 12 July 2021, Qatar Tourism reveals the latest attractions that will build on the extensive tourism development strategy of the last few years. Qatar aims to capitalise on the influx of over one million visitors expected for the FIFA World Cup 2022™ and show the world its hidden treasures and unmissable holiday potential.

Chief Operating Officer of Qatar Tourism, Berthold Trenkel, said: “The countdown to the World Cup is well underway and there’s lots of world-class attractions to come before the matches begin. Amongst the buzz around the tournament itself we hope people are wowed by Qatar’s state-of-the-art new tourism developments, significantly boosting the country’s appeal as a leading holiday destination. There are new beaches for those looking for sun, sea and sand, theme parks and water sports hotels for the adventurous, and lots of new resorts, spas and restaurants for visitors seeking a more relaxing getaway.”

Five major upcoming openings

Winter Wonderland

Pack your shades and sun cream for the Doha Winter Wonderland, set to be launched in Qatar later this year on a sandy island. Instead of the icy cold temperatures that greet visitors at the famous sister event in Hyde Park, London, travellers to Doha Winter Wonderland will be able to relax on the beach under delightful average temperatures in the mid 20°Cs.

Doha Winter Wonderland will feature seafront chalets, restaurants, festival games, 50 rides, and cafes, bringing the festive spirit to the Middle East.

Situated near Lusail City just north of Qatar’s capital, the upcoming 200,000 square metre attraction will be operated by IMG (International Marketing Group), the same company that manages Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park each year.

Fuwairit Kite Beach (FKB)

FKB is an upcoming state-of-the-art kite beach resort in Fuwairit. Fuwairit is a coastal village an easy hour drive north of Doha with excellent kitesurfing conditions thanks to consistent winds, ideal ocean water and powder-soft sands.

The resort is designed around the kitesurfer’s lifestyle with everything you need for the water and even more when you are out of it. There will be a yoga studio, fully equipped gym, restaurants, pool and much more.

The Outpost Al Barari

The Outpost will be the first of its kind in Qatar, integrating close-to-nature experiences, sustainability, and luxury hospitality into one beautiful resort in the globally unique Inland Sea nature reserve.

Surrounded by soaring sand dunes and desert wilderness, 21 luxury lodges with private pools will provide the perfect retreat from hectic city life. Stargazing, hot air ballooning, and immersive desert walks where you will learn about the local wildlife will be among the experiences on offer, alongside “Emerge in Nature” spa treatments and sensational culinary experiences.

Qetaifan Island North

Billed as the first “Entertainment Island” in Qatar, Qetaifan Island North will feature floating hotels, beach clubs and a water park with 36 rides – including “The Icon Tower” zone, featuring an 85-metre-high slide set to become the highest of its kind in the world.

Set over 1.3 million square metres, the island is close to the Lusail Stadium, where the final of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ will take place.

West Bay North Beach Project

West Bay North Beach is an extensive new tourism development being constructed, covering 40,000 square metres of a premium beachfront in the heart of Doha. The public and private beach areas will offer three distinct beach experiences with a wide variety of food and beverage offerings, to create a sought-after city beach experience for everyone to enjoy.

The wave of new resorts and attractions adds to a flurry of openings in Qatar over the last couple of years. In March 2022 the 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum launched as one world’s most innovate sports museums. In 2021 one of the region’s largest theme parks called Desert Falls Water & Adventure Park opened with 28 slides and rides. And last summer a theme park called Quest Doha was unveiled featuring the world’s tallest indoor rollercoaster.

There will also be lots of exciting events in Qatar after the FIFA World Cup 2022™. The country will host a Qatar Formula 1 Grand Prix for at least a decade from 2023, along with the new Geneva International Motorshow Qatar.

The Future of Password Management With Passwork 5.0

Featured Image for Passwork

Featured Image for Passwork

HELSINKI, July 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Passwork, an innovative corporate password manager, has just released the latest incarnation of their flagship product – Passwork Self-hosted 5.0.

The new version is coming packed with features and is set to blow the global competition out of the water. First of all, the interface has undergone a revamp, with the addition of a new access rights window that will make the user experience as seamless as possible. Indeed, users will now be able to access vaults, folders, links and passwords all in one place. Rights can now be bulk-managed, while search filters allow users to display all objects listed with a certain access right. It’s also quicker than ever to see who has accessed vaults and folders and basic information regarding the number of users, roles, links and sent passwords; now, users are able to view this information by hovering over the icon next to the name of a vault or folder.

The logic of the system has also undergone some changes, the biggest of which being Passwork’s migration to PHP 8. As a response to community feedback, the platform will now allow users to grant access to individual passwords without the need to add users to a vault beforehand. Moreover, users may add TOTP keys and then generate 2FA codes which will be updated every 30 seconds. These codes may be stored separately from the main passwords, providing maximum security. Also, failed login attempts are now displayed in the ‘action history’, which will allow users to better track unauthorized access attempts and the actions of blocked users. This feature may be enabled as a Filter through the Action column.

In terms of more general updates, the system is now able to handle a much higher user load. Passwork Self-Hosted 5.0 was recently tested at a 20,000+ user capacity, which it passed with flying colors. There’re also improved LDAP integration features, including: a test mode for LDAP roles and groups linking; the ability to save LDAP logs to a CSV file; and the ability to update user attributes during synchronization with the LDAP directory. The mobile app also underwent some specific changes, with support for Passwork 5.0 implemented, the ability to copy passwords with a long press added, a new home screen that separates vaults by type, inbox passwords, an improved search mechanism and a brand new debug mode. This is the future of password management.

The full list of updates is displayed in the article about the new version.
About Passwork 

Founded in 2014, Passwork is a Finnish company that offers a self-hosted and cloud-based password manager to businesses all across the globe looking to increase company-wide security and productivity while reducing the manual routine and risks of data breaches.

What was first announced in April as an e-commerce solution for Shopify merchants is available now for all companies and segments.

  • Improved Alert Management 2.0 increases efficiency with an expanded set of out-of-the-box application monitoring integrations, ML automated alert grouping and email alerts.

Based upon an internal review of aggregated data of customers using Freshdesk and Freshchat in 2021, customer service agents that used Freshchat AI-powered bots saved over 37 hours per interaction or had an improvement of 94% in Average Resolution Time compared to businesses that use only Freshdesk support desk.

Environment + Energy Leader Awards Cority Top Product of the Year

Honor is fourth consecutive E+E win for software provider’s digital solutions

Cority – Empower Better

Cority – Empower Better

TORONTO, July 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Leading global enterprise EHS (Environment, Health, and Safety) software provider, Cority, was recognized with a Top Product of the Year Award from Environment + Energy Leader for the fourth consecutive year. This year, Cority won with its Sustainability Performance Solution. Cority has won previously for its Waste Management Solution, Emission Inventory Site Diagram, Environmental Management System, and waste management implementation with Cority customer, Central Arizona Project (CAP).

For the past decade, the Environment + Energy Leader Awards have recognized excellence in products and services that provide companies with energy and environmental benefits.

Cority’s Sustainability Performance Solution helps organizations holistically manage and measure initiatives, aggregate data across the enterprise, track progress toward goals, improve sustainability outcomes, and create transparent, accurate reports for internal and external stakeholders.

“Cority products that have earned prestigious E+E wins represent the diverse offering of our speed-to-value digital platforms that enable clients to improve sustainability agendas and reduce their footprint,” said Krystal Truax, Cority’s director of product management for environmental and sustainability solutions. “By measuring, evaluating, and managing sustainability performance in a verifiable way, Cority’s technology ensures that its users meet evolving EHS performance expectations from financial markets, regulators, employees, and society at large.”

Cority’s Sustainability Performance Solution also provides insights to identify and inform better business decisions. For example, a global manufacturer of warehouse equipment uses Cority to track sustainability metrics across its entire value chain. In doing so, the company created synergies across internal reports, thus, allowing decision makers to gain insight across its entire corporate footprint, enable accurate greenhouse management reporting, and inform energy usage and greenhouse emissions (GHG) goals.

Another Cority customer, a large oil and gas company, uses the software to track waste pickup schedules, volumes, and streams. By doing so, it can more accurately determine how often waste pickups need to be performed, enabling the company to reduce transporter emissions. The data also helps the company identify ways to reuse and recycle waste, resulting in less waste and reduced waste emissions.

In choosing award winners, judges evaluated products, in part, based on their ease of use, efficiency, and reliability. They also sought products that provided clear, substantial benefits and that have viable attributes that set them apart from others. The Cority Sustainability Performance Solution is innovative in that it is uniquely positioned to grow with a customer as an organization’s sustainability program matures.

“As part of CorityOne, the company’s integrated EHS SaaS-based platform, our Sustainability Performance Solution enables companies to evolve and scale with the technology – from built-in best practices and standards that help companies get started, to advanced capabilities necessary to manage complex operational data and programs,” Truax said.

Cority’s consecutive Top Product wins indicate that the E+E program’s expert judges consider Cority’s solutions as top models of the exemplary work being done today in the fields of energy and environmental management.

Of Cority’s Sustainability Performance Solution win this year, judges wrote, “This software platform provides a way to consolidate data from various sources, which will help any user analyze at-a-glance trends and results over time.”

OSB Community Bank Adopts Nexus Closing by SimpleNexus to Support Hybrid Closings

Long-time Nexus Engagement and Nexus Origination customer implements Nexus Closing to provide an end-to-end, single sign-on experience for homebuyers

LEHI, Utah, July 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SimpleNexus (https://simplenexus.com/), an nCino (NASDAQ: NCNO) company and developer of the United States’ leading homeownership platform for loan officers (LOs), borrowers, real estate agents and settlement agents, today announced that OSB Community Bank, a subsidiary of Ottawa Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQX: OTTW), has implemented SimpleNexus’ Nexus Closing™ to facilitate hybrid closings. The bank will leverage Nexus Closing alongside Nexus Engagement™ and Nexus Origination™— tools the bank has used for six years — to facilitate a ‘from anywhere’ borrower experience from application to closing.

Founded in 1871, OSB Community Bank is an Illinois-chartered commercial bank with loan officers operating out of branches in Ottawa, Marseilles and Morris, Illinois.

“SimpleNexus provides a modern, easy-to-use interface for customers, while helping our LOs give homebuyers the personalized service that OSB Community Bank has prided itself on for more than a century,” said Sabol. “More than offering our customers a unified financing experience, Nexus Closing’s seamless integration with Nexus Engagement and Nexus Origination will enable us to operate in a more organized, efficient and productive manner.”

Nexus Engagement helps lenders and real estate agents develop relationships with early-stage homebuyers through tools such as integrated home search, instant chat and payment calculators. Nexus Origination is a comprehensive point of sale (POS) platform that enables borrowers to fill out loan applications, eSign documents, check loan status updates and pay mortgage-related charges through a feature called Nexus Pay. Nexus Closing supports all types of mortgage closings, from traditional to hybrid to full eClosings. The entire SimpleNexus suite can be accessed by borrowers, lenders and other authorized stakeholders from anywhere through a single, sign-on portal.

“For organizations producing billions of dollars in mortgage volume to community lenders like OSB Community Bank, SimpleNexus curates a frictionless homebuying experience that delights borrowers and promotes operational efficiency from start to finish,” said SimpleNexus Chief Product Officer Shane Westra. “OSB Community Bank brilliantly models how SimpleNexus can be used to keep LOs, real estate agents and homebuyers connected throughout the loan lifecycle, while achieving faster conversion times and growing origination volume.”
