Confidential Computing Poised for Explosive Growth as Anjuna Secures Three of the World's Top 10 Banks
This win brings Anjuna's total to three of the world's top 10 banks using its technology to securely collaborate and unlock data value with confidence.
This milestone comes on the heels of momentum with customers in digital payments, and recent recognition in the Fast Company Most Innovative Companies of 2025 list, as well as Gartner's Emerging Tech: Tech Innovators in Preemptive Cybersecurity report.
The adoption of Confidential Computing by these leading banks marks a clear inflection point. These institutions are among the most risk-sensitive and compliance-bound in the world. Their decision to deploy Anjuna Seaglass and Northstar signals a fundamental shift in how financial services organizations think about data protection, AI readiness, and operational resilience. For global banks, securing sensitive operations, such as fraud detection, transaction analysis, and cross-border data collaboration, is not just about privacy and compliance, but about preserving trust and unlocking competitive advantages. With AI now essential to staying ahead, these banks need a way to safely activate high-value data across teams, partners, and jurisdictions. Confidential Computing provides the only viable path forward, offering end-to-end protection during processing without slowing down innovation. As these global leaders adopt the technology, the rest of the industry is sure to follow.
'Securing another top-tier global bank is further proof that Confidential Computing is becoming the new foundation for secure digital finance,' said Ayal Yogev, CEO and co-founder of Anjuna. 'These institutions are leading the industry into a future where sensitive data can be used safely for AI, analytics, and collaboration, with zero compromise, even when infrastructure spans AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and on-premises environments.'
In addition to three of the world's 10 largest banks, Anjuna serves large enterprise and public sector organizations including 5 next-generation payment companies and the U.S. Navy. With the addition of this top bank, the total number of people employed by Anjuna customers now exceeds one million.

UK University Clearing Chaos: Students on Hold for More Than Three Hours - Unless the University Used 8x8
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As A-level results dropped last Thursday, students across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland scrambled to secure university places through Clearing — and many were forced to wait more than three hours on hold to do so, according to new data from 8x8, Inc. (NASDAQ: EGHT), the industry's most integrated customer experience (CX) platform provider. In the UK, Clearing is a process where students who do not have a university place or have changed their mind on which course they wish to attend call universities directly after exam results are published to see if they can claim one of the remaining spots. With more than 22,000 undergraduate courses still open, phone lines across the UK were quickly overwhelmed. And while Clearing technically runs until October, the first few days are critical – with places awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. But for students calling 8x8-powered universities, the experience looked very different. Average wait times dropped to just six seconds, and most calls were resolved end-to-end in under eight minutes. After the first weekend of Clearing since the exam results dropped, data shared with 8x8 from a number of university bodies revealed: Across the UK, some applicants were on hold for more than three hours before reaching the relevant university employees. 80% of call volume took place on the Thursday of exam results being received. 8x8-supported universities recorded wait times of less than eight seconds for a call to be answered - while some (non-8x8 supported) universities had average wait times of above 16 minutes. At 8x8-supported universities, total call handling times were around eight minutes - and in some cases under two minutes. Removing stress from the process 'Clearing is high-stakes for students and universities alike as every second on hold adds stress and the risk of losing a place or funding,' said Maxine Eunson, Head of Public Sector and Universities at 8x8, Inc. 'I hear that, at non-8x8 supported universities, average handling time on Clearing has been more than ten minutes and it's great our tools are helping universities be quicker and better than that as we help them move from chaos to clarity.' 8x8 and Education More information about how 8x8 helps universities and other educational institutions can be found on the company's customer success page. About 8x8 Inc. 8x8, Inc. (NASDAQ: EGHT) connects people and organizations through seamless communication on the industry's most integrated platform for Customer Experience – combining Contact Center, Unified Communication, and CPaaS solutions. The 8x8® Platform for CX integrates AI at every level to enable personalized customer journeys, drive operational excellence and insights, and facilitate team collaboration. 8x8 helps customer experience and IT leaders become the heartbeat of their organizations, empowering them to unlock the potential of every interaction.

'…Merit a Full and Urgent Review' Microsoft Stock (NASDAQ:MSFT) Slips With Plans to Review its Israeli Operations
Not long ago, there were concerns going around about tech giant Microsoft (MSFT) and its operations in Israel. The concerns were growing to the point that even one of Microsoft's own game studios, Arkane Studios, issued an open letter about the practices going on. Microsoft appears to be concerned about such developments, and has launched an internal investigation. The move left investors cold, though, and they sent shares down modestly in Tuesday afternoon's trading. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Microsoft will be running an independent review of the cloud computing technology that the Israeli Defense Forces are putting to use, spurred on in large part by not only Microsoft's own employees, but also, outside activists who have been weighing in for some time. A previous investigation from May found that Microsoft's Azure cloud technology had been used by the Israeli Ministry of Defense, but that it had not been used to '…target or harm people in Gaza.' Recently, Microsoft updated that report, noting that it does not always know how its customers use its products. Under normal circumstances, this makes sense; most of us would not want Microsoft privy to what goes into our spreadsheets or documents, after all. But word from 'anonymous sources' noted that the Israeli Defense Forces were using Azure to 'store troves of data,' including millions of mobile phone calls. This data was used to '…shape…military operations…' in and around Gaza, prompting Microsoft to take a closer look. Xbox Series X/S Era Ending? Console gamers have long known that a console generation tends to run about seven years, and with the latest consoles coming out back in 2020, the writing was at least somewhat on the wall. News about the new handheld devices, and the possibility the next Xbox would have Steam support, all suggested that new consoles were a matter of 'when' rather than 'if,' and 'when' looked like 'soon.' New word from Carl Ledbetter, Partner Head of Design at Xbox, suggested that the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S may be coming to a close after all. 'As we wrap up this journey with the Xbox Series X and Series S, the mission behind these consoles echoes everything I've learned over 30 years – to create technology that's powerful, purposeful, and beautifully integrated into people's lives.' So it certainly does look like the end is in sight, a development that most figured was likely anyway, with year six about to start. Is Microsoft a Buy, Hold or Sell? Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Strong Buy consensus rating on MSFT stock based on 34 Buys and one Hold assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. After a 21.73% rally in its share price over the past year, the average MSFT price target of $623.60 per share implies 21.92% upside potential. Disclosure
