Cardholders will also have expanded access to Fetch’s beloved instant-win Spin & Win[7] feature. This feature allows cardholders to spin a wheel to boost their Fetch Points after every purchase, with the chance to win up to 1,200 additional Fetch Points per spin.

This is also the latest in a series of co-brand card launches on the American Express network through the American Express Agile Partner Platform (APP).

RTX to optimize cyber vulnerability detection for DARPA

PR Newswire


RTX BBN Technologies to advance high-fidelity exploit chain testing and evaluation 


CAMBRIDGE, Mass.
, Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — RTX’s (NYSE: RTX) BBN Technologies was awarded a contract from DARPA to support its Intelligent Generation of Tools for Security, or INGOTS, program. INGOTS aims to strengthen cybersecurity by developing advanced methods to identify and mitigate complex exploit chains, preventing their use in real-world attacks.

Exploit chains pose a growing threat, amplified by the increasing complexity and sophistication of cyberattacks. The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency‘s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog has surpassed 1,300 entries, with steady growth reflecting the increasing number of threats targeting essential services and networks. Despite this rising threat, current assessment methods rely heavily on manual analysis, requiring significant expertise and time. INGOTS seeks to address this challenge by automating the creation, modification, modeling and analysis of exploit chains to enable faster and more effective security interventions.

“Effectively countering exploit chains requires more than just identifying individual vulnerabilities. It demands a system that can replicate real-world attack scenarios and anticipate potential risks before they are exploited,” said Jack Dietz, BBN principal investigator.

To support this effort, BBN will apply its expertise in testbed architecture to develop the System Test of Android at Large-scale Accelerating Generation and Modeling for INGOTS Test and Evaluation, or STALAGMITE. This system will serve as a comprehensive platform for testing and evaluating exploit analysis tools, offering key capabilities such as:

  • Accurate real-world simulations: High-fidelity testing in combined virtual and physical environments ensures realistic assessments of Android vulnerabilities in a secure and controlled setting.
  • Proactive threat responses: Seamless integration of INGOTS components enables security teams to anticipate and mitigate potential attacks, enhancing preparedness against emerging threats.
  • Efficient security research: A robust environment for reproducible, automated testing advances research in software vulnerabilities and countermeasures, improving operating system and application security.

“Today’s manual methods for assessing exploitability are costly, time-consuming and lack scalability and efficiency,” said Dietz. “We aim to alleviate this burden from security professionals by accelerating the automatic identification of security risks across various devices and configurations using precise testing and measurement to strengthen overall cybersecurity defenses.”

While the program focuses on the Android ecosystem, the methodologies and technologies developed under INGOTS are expected to have far-reaching applications across personal, business, government and military sectors.

The BBN-led team includes Assured Information Security. Work on the program will be completed in Cambridge, Massachusetts; Columbia, Maryland; and Rome, New York.

About RTX BBN Technologies

Founded in 1948, RTX BBN Technologies provides advanced technology research and development with a focus on national security priorities. From the ARPANET to the first email, through the first metro network protected by quantum cryptography, BBN consistently transitions advanced research to produce innovative solutions for its customers.

Thomson Reuters Launches CoCounsel Legal: Transforming Legal Work with Agentic AI and Deep Research

PR Newswire

CoCounsel Legal includes Deep Research, an industry-first AI solution grounded in Thomson Reuters expert legal content, starting with Westlaw


TORONTO
, Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Thomson Reuters (TSX/Nasdaq: TRI), a global content and technology company, announced the launch of CoCounsel Legal, featuring Deep Research and agentic guided workflows. This milestone product release showcases Thomson Reuters most advanced AI offering to date, designed to help professionals move beyond prompting and start delegating.

Thomson Reuters is uniquely positioned to deliver this agentic AI breakthrough because it already has access to an AI assistant with advanced reasoning models, comprehensive legal content and tools, and expertise from thousands of domain experts—the three essential components required for reliable, professional-grade agentic AI.

CoCounsel Legal: Built for Execution, Not Just Ideas

CoCounsel Legal is a next-generation AI product that brings together legal research, essential workflow automation, intelligent document search and AI-powered legal assistance within one unified solution. It’s the first time agentic AI has been deployed this broadly across professional legal workflows—with the infrastructure and scale to support enterprise-wide transformation.

Unlike AI copilots that sit beside the work, CoCounsel Legal is embedded in it—built to drive real outcomes in litigation, transactional work, and regulatory analysis. It represents the foundation for how professional AI will be delivered across law firms and legal departments into the future.

Deep Research on Westlaw: AI That Thinks Like a Lawyer

CoCounsel Legal includes Deep Research, grounded in Thomson Reuters content and tools. Deep Research in CoCounsel is the legal industry’s first professional-grade agentic AI research capability—built to reason, plan, and deliver comprehensive legal research results grounded in Westlaw and Practical Law content. It enables legal professionals to hand off full research questions to an AI that not only understands the assignment — it explains its process, sources its answers, and builds the argument foundations, with human oversight.

Deep Research on the new Westlaw Advantage is integrated into CoCounsel Legal and can:

  • Generate multi-step research plans
  • Trace its logic with transparent reasoning
  • Deliver structured, Westlaw and Practical Law citation-backed reports

“Thomson Reuters latest integration of advanced AI models into its core platforms marks an encouraging step forward in legal technology,” said Colleen Nihill, Chief AI & KM Officer at Morgan Lewis. “Deep Research stands out for its ability to reason through legal questions rather than simply return search results. When faced with a complex issue, it can generate a research plan, explain its logic, and deliver a structured report. This level of transparency is essential to maintaining the oversight and trust lawyers need to confidently adopt AI in practice.”

Guided Workflows: Multi-Step AI That Actually Works

Also included in CoCounsel Legal is a growing library of guided workflows—multi-step task flows that apply agentic AI to high-friction legal work, leveraging Westlaw and Practical Law expertise. In addition to the CoCounsel guided workflows launched in July, there are new workflows launching soon:

  • Draft a Privacy Policy
  • Draft an Employee Policy
  • Draft a complaint
  • Draft discovery request
  • Draft discovery response
  • Deposition transcript review

These workflows embed legal content, apply structured reasoning, and provide human oversight by design, helping lawyers and corporate legal teams move faster while staying in control.

“This is where AI starts to feel less like a tool and more like a teammate,” said David Wong, Chief Product Officer at Thomson Reuters. “Guided workflows transform how professionals approach complex legal work, moving beyond simple prompting to sophisticated, multi-step task execution—and that’s a huge leap forward in what legal AI can deliver.”

Trusted by the Legal Market

Over 20,000 law firms and corporate legal departments and the majority of the top US courts and Am Law 100 firms already trust CoCounsel. With CoCounsel Legal, the company is setting a new benchmark for trusted, explainable, and production-ready AI in legal practice.

Additional Information

Thomson Reuters (TSX/Nasdaq: TRI) informs the way forward by bringing together the trusted content and technology that people and organizations need to make the right decisions.

“Riot produced 484 bitcoin in July,” said Jason Les, CEO of Riot. “Historically, the summer months are more challenging for hash rate utilization, as we participate in ERCOT’s Four Coincident Peaks Program (“4CP”), voluntarily curtail as part of demand response programs, and operate in harsher conditions. Despite these factors, Riot increased production month over month and achieved an extremely low all-in power cost of $28/MWh, which is a testament to our operational improvements and our power management capabilities.

“Riot also made additional progress on our Data Center platform in July, closing on an additional 238 acres, located in proximity to our operations in Corsicana, TX. Collectively, Riot now owns 858 acres in Corsicana, giving us the flexibility to accommodate various data center designs and development plans which we are aggressively pursuing in order to be best positioned to fully utilize the 1.0 GW of power available at our Corsicana Facility.”

Windtree Announces Istaroxime Phase 2 Interim Analysis in SCAI Stage C Cardiogenic Shock Patients

Istaroxime was added to currently available inotropes and vasopressors in the study – no new safety signals were identified and physiological improvements were consistent with istaroxime responses in previous trials

Cardiogenic shock is a severe presentation of heart failure and SCAI Stage C patients have low blood pressure and signs of organ damage due to low blood flow

These data provide the Company confidence to move forward with a global Phase 3 trial

WARRINGTON, Pa., Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (“Windtree” or the “Company”) (NasdaqCM: WINT), a diversified company with several divisions, including a cryptocurrency treasury strategy and two promising therapeutic pipelines for which the Company is actively seeking long-term development partners, has performed a planned interim analysis of the SEISMiC C Phase 2 study data evaluating istaroxime in SCAI Stage C cardiogenic shock which showed istaroxime had a similar profile to that seen in previous studies despite a greater severity of illness and being used in addition to currently available inotropes and vasopressors.

The SEISMiC C Study is a global trial including sites in the U.S., Europe and Latin America. It is placebo-controlled, double-blinded study with istaroxime being added to current standard of care, including inotropes or vasopressors in patients with more severe cardiogenic shock (SCAI stage C) than has been studied previously. The study follows the results of the SEISMIC B study where istaroxime was shown to improve blood pressure and hemodynamic variables such as cardiac output (the amount of blood pumped by the heart per minute), reduced filling pressures in the heart and improved signs of organ perfusion such as mixed venous oxygenation in patients with milder cardiogenic shock (SCAI stage B). This data is contributing to a very unique profile of istaroxime in acute decompensated heart failure across severity of illness. Inotropes and vasopressors agents are given to many patients in intensive care units in the USA every year and the results of the SEISMIC program may suggest potential advantages to istaroxime over existing therapies in efficacy and possibly safety. The SESIMIC C study was designed to assess the effects of istaroxime in patients with SCAI Stage C cardiogenic shock (i.e., more severe cardiogenic shock than patients enrolled in previous acute heart failure and cardiogenic shock studies in the past). Many patients in SESIMIC C were treated at the time of enrollment with vasopressors or inotropes and hence the SESIMIC C study is testing for the first time the safety and efficacy of istaroxime in more severe cardiogenic shock when istaroxime treatment is combined with other therapies for cardiogenic shock.

The interim analysis included the first 20 patients enrolled in the study. There were no new safety concerns identified, and no apparent excess arrhythmias in patients treated with istaroxime when given with standard of care therapies. The effects on hemodynamic and echocardiographic measures appeared to be consistent with results seen in previous istaroxime studies.

“The results of the SEISMIC C interim analysis are exciting,” said Jed Latkin, Chief Executive Officer of Windtree. “We believe these data will be instrumental in moving istaroxime to a global Phase 3 program in heart failure and cardiogenic shock. Steve Simonson, Chief Medical Officer added, “The interim data are consistent with the previous clinical study results seen in patients with AHF and less severe forms of cardiogenic shock. These data are encouraging for the potential of istaroxime to be effective across the spectrum of cardiogenic shock due to AHF with or without other inotropic or vasopressor drugs.”

About Istaroxime

Istaroxime is a first-in-class dual-mechanism therapy designed to improve both systolic and diastolic cardiac function. Istaroxime is a positive inotropic agent that increases myocardial contractility through inhibition of Na+/K+- ATPase with a complimentary mechanism that facilitates myocardial relaxation through activation of the SERCA2a calcium pump on the sarcoplasmic reticulum enhancing calcium reuptake from the cytoplasm. Data from multiple Phase 2 studies in patients with early cardiogenic shock or acute decompensated heart failure demonstrate that istaroxime infused intravenously can significantly improve cardiac function and blood pressure without increasing heart rate or the incidence of clinically significant cardiac rhythm disturbances.
