AI-accelerated vulnerability discovery is increasing application updates and shortening remediation deadlines. Devicie’s AI-assisted automation handles the operational work required to keep Windows and macOS applications current within Microsoft Intune.

SYDNEY and TAMPA BAY, Fla., Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Microsoft Intune gives organizations comprehensive control over their end-user computing environment, but realizing its full value requires teams to continuously operate and maintain it. As AI accelerates vulnerability discovery and increases the volume and urgency of application updates, that operational burden is growing.

Devicie today announced a major expansion of the application management capabilities within its Intune management and automation platform, designed to automate that work rather than add more work for IT teams to manage.

Devicie now automatically manages more than 1,500 Windows and macOS applications, alongside an organization’s own line-of-business software at no additional charge. Devicie’s investment in AI-assisted testing and validation enables new application versions to be made ready within Microsoft Intune, typically within hours of publisher release.

The expansion is part of Devicie’s broader approach to Microsoft Intune: automate the ongoing endpoint operations required to keep environments current, secure and aligned to policy, while organizations retain Microsoft Intune as their management platform.

Application updates are accelerating
The volume and frequency of application security updates are increasing sharply. On 8 September 2026 Microsoft’s monthly security update addressed more than 950 vulnerabilities in a single release — Jerry Gamblin’s analysis of the CVE List records 1,255 Microsoft CVEs across the whole of 2025. In July 2026 Adobe moved from monthly to twice-monthly security bulletins, giving the reason plainly: “the window between public vulnerability disclosure and active exploitation is compressing from days to hours.”

Software publishers attribute the shift in part to AI-assisted vulnerability discovery. Microsoft’s Pavan Davuluri said, “The pace of vulnerability discovery is changing with advances in AI making it possible to find more issues, faster, across more code,” with customers seeing “a higher volume of security updates included in each security release.”

Remediation deadlines have moved with it. In June 2026 the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency replaced its earlier fourteen-day deadline for known exploited vulnerabilities with a tiered directive whose fastest tier is three days and stated that threat actors’ “use of AI may further narrow the time defenders have to react between patch release and possible exploitation.”

Matching the increasing speed
Detection has accelerated. The work required to make updates ready for deployment has to accelerate with it, and at the volume publishers are now shipping, that is not a staffing problem an organization can hire its way out of.

Devicie’s investment in AI-assisted testing and hardening allows its application catalog to be kept current at this pace. Applications are monitored against publisher release sources, then packaged, tested and made ready for assignment, typically within hours of release.

“The U.S. government just cut its remediation deadline for known exploited vulnerabilities from fourteen days to three. Enterprise remediation SLAs written for a slower world are heading in the same direction. You cannot meet that pace by adding more manual work. It requires automation, and automation at this speed requires trust.

That matters beyond application updates. Intune can do far more than most organizations have had the time to switch on. The teams we work with aren’t short of capability; they’re short of hours. Our investment in AI is about building trusted automation that gives teams that capacity back — so they can do more with Intune as endpoint operations become faster and more demanding,” said Alex Hesterberg, Chief Executive Officer at Devicie.

Endpoint operations are becoming critical
Microsoft Intune is among the most capable device management platforms available. The challenge is not what Intune can do; it is the capacity required to operate it continuously and take advantage of its full capabilities.

Application management is among the most time-consuming of those recurring operations. Every new version means finding the installer, determining the correct installation parameters, testing it, packaging it and assigning it; then doing it again when the next version ships.

Devicie automates that function inside the organization’s existing Intune tenant, without requiring an IT team to raise a request. And where a commercial application catalog stops, Devicie continues: an organization’s own line-of-business and in-house software is automated through the same process.

The catalog spans widely used software including Microsoft 365 Apps, Microsoft Visual Studio Code, Microsoft OneDrive, Google Chrome, Adobe Acrobat, Slack, Zoom Workplace and Mozilla Firefox. Coverage is prioritized based on what Devicie detects across its customer base and market monitoring, with new applications added continuously.

Do more with Microsoft Intune

Capacity, back where it is worth more. Application updating stops competing for IT attention, giving teams more capacity for the parts of Intune they have not had time to turn on.

One answer when someone asks. Application currency is reported per device from the same system that reports CIS and ACSC Essential Eight baseline compliance for Windows and macOS end-user devices.

The software the business actually runs is included at no additional charge. Line-of-business systems, in-house tools and vendor applications with complex installers can be managed alongside Devicie’s application catalog.

A version that causes a problem can be rolled back. Devicie keeps the current version and the two versions before it in the tenant, preserving the ability to step back from an update.

macOS managed to the same standard, in the same place. Administrators browse, configure and deploy macOS applications from the same portal, with the same controls, natively through Intune, avoiding the need for a second application management vendor for mixed fleets.

In production today
John Holland Group runs cloud-native device management across more than 60 worksites with Devicie’s enhanced application management in production and full ACSC Essential Eight maturity level one compliance, and reports $1.2 million in annual return.

Toyota Financial Services retired Microsoft Configuration Manager and moved a 1,300-device fleet to modern management on Intune with Devicie, reducing device builds to 20 minutes.

Microsoft Intune remains the control plane
Devicie runs inside the customer’s existing Microsoft stack and change process. There is no second console, no separate source of truth and no migration.

Microsoft controls how often a device checks in, while the organization’s own update rings control how fast a version reaches production. Devicie shortens the time it takes for an application to become ready for deployment while leaving device check-in and production rollout to Microsoft Intune and the customer’s own policies.

Automation at speed requires trust
Every installer must arrive over HTTPS from a domain belonging to the publisher; mirrors, third parties and shortened links are rejected. The file’s cryptographic hash is calculated from the installer itself and compared again at each stage.

Every package is scanned for malware, then installed, detected and removed on a clean machine across every architecture and installation scope it supports. AI accelerates Devicie’s ability to monitor, package and test applications, but it does not replace these deterministic controls. If validation fails, the process stops before the package reaches the customer tenant.

How many of your applications are covered?
Devicie has published a free calculator that allows organizations to compare their Intune application estate against Devicie’s managed coverage and estimate the operational time currently spent managing applications.

Exporting an application list from Intune shows how much of the estate Devicie already covers, which applications have no catalog match and an estimate of the hours per year that work is consuming. Matching runs in the browser; no account or email address is required, and nothing is uploaded.

Exchange holds two community AMAs and an X Space with Pakistani users as it moves through the country’s new licensing framework

APIA, Samoa, Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — HTX, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, last week held two community AMA sessions and an X Space with users and influencers in Pakistan. The events were part of a broader effort to build a long-term, regulated presence in one of South Asia’s fastest-growing digital asset markets.

The sessions were intended to introduce the platform to local users and to open direct channels with Pakistan’s crypto community. They follow a series of regulatory steps HTX has taken in the country over recent months, reflecting the exchange’s commitment to entering Pakistan through its formal licensing process rather than treating it as a short-term market.

Regulatory Progress Under the PVARA Framework

HTX is one of the first two global exchanges to receive a No-Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (PVARA). The certificate allows the exchange to proceed to the next stage of the compliance process, which includes anti-money-laundering registration, the establishment of a local Pakistani entity, and preparation of a full application for a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) licence.

In late August, Pakistan formally issued its regulations for virtual asset services and opened the licence application mechanism, moving the country’s oversight of the sector into an implementation phase. HTX is aligning its work with the newly published requirements, continuing to advance the incorporation of its local company, the preparation of its formal licence application, and the build-out of its local compliance framework. The exchange is maintaining ongoing dialogue with the regulator and with local professional advisers to lay the groundwork for operating in the country under the applicable rules.

A Three-Part Approach to the Market

HTX’s work in Pakistan is proceeding along three fronts: regulatory compliance, local communication, and user service. The PVARA NOC forms one part of the compliance track. Community AMAs, user education, ongoing dialogue with local users, and outreach to prospective partners serve a different purpose: understanding what Pakistani users actually need from an exchange, from asset security to payment on-ramps and product coverage.

This week’s sessions were structured around that goal. Rather than making product announcements, they focused on questions raised by attendees, with HTX representatives addressing how the platform operates, how user assets are protected, and what the exchange’s regulatory status in Pakistan currently means in practice.

A Record Built Over Thirteen Years

Many of the questions raised in those sessions come down to a single one: whether HTX has earned users’ trust over time. On that measure, the exchange brings a history that few in the industry can match.

HTX has operated continuously since 2013. In an industry where platforms have appeared and disappeared within a single market cycle, it has remained in operation through several, adapting to changing conditions while continuing to serve users across the world. That longevity is not an accident of timing; it reflects an institution that has learned how to manage risk over the long term.

Transparency has been part of that discipline. HTX has published proof-of-reserves reports every month for 47 consecutive months as of September 2026, a practice it maintained through periods when no rule required it and when many of its peers chose not to. Users in Pakistan will find the same reports available to them as to users anywhere else, offering a verifiable account of how the platform holds client assets.

Beneath these commitments sits a mature product range spanning spot, derivatives and earn services, developed and refined over more than a decade. Taken together, HTX’s history, its transparency record and the depth of its platform demonstrate an exchange that Pakistani users can assess based on its track record rather than on its promises.

Next Steps

That track record is now extending to Pakistan. HTX said its priorities in the country for the coming period are to continue advancing its licence application, complete its local operational preparations, respond to the security and product questions raised most frequently by users, and refine its content and services on the basis of direct feedback from the Pakistani community.

The exchange added that further community engagement and educational activities will follow as its regulatory work in the country progresses.

About HTX

Founded in 2013, HTX has evolved from a virtual asset exchange into a comprehensive ecosystem of blockchain businesses that span digital asset trading, financial derivatives, research, investments, incubation, and other businesses.

As a world-leading gateway to Web3, HTX harbors global capabilities that enable it to provide users with safe and reliable services. Adhering to the growth strategy of “Global Expansion, Thriving Ecosystem, Wealth Effect, Security & Compliance,” HTX is dedicated to providing quality services and values to virtual asset enthusiasts worldwide.

The Passions of St. Francis, praised by Ethan Hawke as “a great novel,” arrives October 4, 2026—on the 800th anniversary of Francis of Assisi’s death.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — He preached to birds. He embraced poverty. He became one of Christianity’s most beloved saints. But who was Francis of Assisi before he became a legend?

Acclaimed author Charles Gaines answers that question in his final novel, The Passions of St. Francis—a provocative, sweeping, and deeply human reimagining of the life of Francis of Assisi and his extraordinary bond with Clare of Assisi.

Edited in the months before his death, Gaines’s novel strips away centuries of sanitized imagery to reveal a Francis driven by passion, sexuality, love, ambition, suffering, spiritual doubt, and an almost obsessive desire to understand God.

Actor and writer Ethan Hawke, who read the novel before publication, calls it “a great novel” and says it is the kind of book he would buy “for every friend” who has a desire to wrestle with life’s biggest questions.

“The book is full of spit and sex and life and love and faith and everything that matters… I love it… The book has elevated my life and will many others’.” — Ethan Hawke, American actor and writer

For eight hundred years, Francis of Assisi has stood as one of the most admired and beloved figures in Christian history—quoted, celebrated, and written about more than perhaps any other human being. Yet despite the thousands of books devoted to his life, nearly all have been works of history and theology. Few have dared to imagine the man behind the saint.

In The Passions of St. Francis, Gaines offers a rare achievement: a deeply researched historical novel that brings Francis vividly to life as a passionate, conflicted, and profoundly human being. He goes beyond history and theology to explore the emotional and spiritual journey that transformed an extraordinary man into an enduring saint.

Drawing upon four years of research and more than fifty historical sources, Gaines dismantles the sanitized image of Francis as merely a gentle, bird-loving mystic. Instead, readers encounter a man of fierce passions—passionate about nature, simplicity, generosity, suffering humanity, and, above all, love.

At the heart of the novel are Francis’s three great consuming passions: his profound bond with Clare of Assisi, the noblewoman who would later found the Order of Poor Clares; his devotion to the Franciscan Order he built and ultimately saw wrested from his control; and his agonizing relationship with God, including the devastating experience of spiritual abandonment.

The themes at the heart of The Passions of St. Francis echo powerfully in the modern world, offering a lens through which to reflect on some of the most urgent questions of our time. The novel celebrates Francis’s reverence for the natural world and his belief that humanity should nurture nature rather than exploit it—a message that feels especially urgent today. Sainthood is portrayed not as perfection, but as something forged through suffering, doubt, love, loss, and emotional vulnerability.

Blending historical fiction, an epic love story, and a spiritual journey, the novel ultimately asks what it means to be human.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Charles Gaines passed away during the final edits of this book, surrounded by his loved ones. He was author of 23 books, including the novel Stay Hungry (National Book Award finalist), the international bestseller Pumping Iron, and the memoir A Family Place. He also co-wrote and narrated Pumping Iron, a film widely credited with bringing bodybuilding—and Arnold Schwarzenegger—to mainstream attention.

His screenwriting work includes produced feature films, award-winning documentaries, a PBS adaptation of Edith Wharton’s Summer, and segments for ABC’s American Sportsman, where he also worked as a director and producer. For television writing, he received two Emmy Awards and two Cine Golden Eagle Awards.

Over five decades, Gaines has contributed to major magazines such as Harper’s, Sports Illustrated, Esquire, Playboy, and Architectural Digest. He was also an accomplished outdoorsman—particularly known for fly-fishing—and co-invented the sport of paintball.

ABOUT THE PUBLISHER: 
The Crossroad Publishing Company is an independent book and media company. As heir to a 200-year family publishing tradition, we publish under respected imprints Crossroad Books and Herder & Herder—works that explore the basic questions of human life.

New research spanning tens of thousands of fans worldwide explores why real-world experiences are gaining value as more of life moves online.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — This week, millions of fans will compare set-list predictions as merch lines wrap around venues and restaurants and bars fill before the show. Once the lights go down, they will share an experience that can only happen live.

In the U.S., it is expected to be the busiest week for Live Nation’s fan attendance this year. The milestone reflects a much larger cultural shift playing out around the world. As more of life moves online, people are placing greater value on experiences that feel unmistakably real.

The Return to Real, a new global report from Live Nation for Brands, examines what is driving that shift and what it means for culture, commerce and brands. Drawing on multiple surveys of tens of thousands of fans worldwide, the research found that 93% of fans crave real experiences over digital ones, while 80% would rather spend on experiences than on things. Live music emerged as the world’s favorite form of entertainment.

As technology becomes more deeply woven into everyday life, it is getting harder to tell what was made by a person, what was generated and what actually happened. At a concert, there is no question. The artist is on stage. You are in the room. Thousands of other people are experiencing the same thing alongside you.

“People can do almost everything from their phones now,” says Russell Wallach, Global President, Live Nation Media & Sponsorship. “That’s exactly why the things worth leaving home for matter more than ever. The brands building lasting loyalty are becoming part of those experiences.”

For brands, that opportunity comes at an interesting moment for loyalty. While 66% of fans say they engaged with loyalty programs more than a year ago, 64% say they feel less loyal to brands, and 71% say loyalty programs feel the same. More than 9 in 10 say live music benefits would make them sign up for or switch loyalty programs.

Brands across industries are already responding.

Reserved by Spotify is using its digital platform to connect fans with live experiences. “There’s just no replacement for the live music experience,” says Jon Ostrow, Spotify’s Head of Business Development, Live Music. “Obviously, we’re a digital platform, and we’ve got thousands who are thinking deeply daily about how to create a more robust digital environment, but we’re starting to see how digital and live can go hand in hand, creating a better experience both offline and online.”

Mastercard sees exclusive access becoming a new form of loyalty. “As people place greater value on real-world experiences, access has become one of the most powerful forms of loyalty,” says Monica Biagiotti, EVP, Global Consumer Marketing and Sponsorships. “Whether it’s traveling to experience a bucket-list concert, discovering a new destination through music, or sharing an unforgettable night with friends and family, these experiences create lasting memories. Through the Priceless Platform and our partnership with Live Nation, we’re making those moments more accessible for millions of cardholders around the world.”

Lowe’s is extending loyalty beyond the store. “Products may bring someone through the door, but experiences are often what make them want to come back,” says Amanda Bailey, VP of Customer Marketing and Loyalty. “Music connects people through emotion. Almost everyone has a song, an artist or a concert that means something to them. Live music gives us a chance to surprise and delight our loyalty members with experiences and benefits that make those moments even better.”

Across industries, brands are finding new ways to make live experiences part of how they build customer relationships. The Return to Real explores what fans value about experiences they can see, feel and share for themselves, and what that shift means for brands.
