IKS Health, a global leader in care enablement solutions, and Certilytics, Inc., an innovator in AI-driven healthcare intelligence, today announced an expansion of their strategic partnership. The new collaboration is designed to bridge the historic divide between payers and providers by turning predictive insights into safe, coordinated clinical actions.

As healthcare enters the era of agentic AI, the industry is moving beyond systems of intelligence that simply identify risks to systems of action that execute the work. By integrating Certilytics’ BrainstormAI® Studio and CertHLM™ with the IKS Health Agentic Care Enablement Platform, the companies are creating a premier ecosystem where AI agents manage complex tasks, such as prior authorization and patient outreach, under the continuous oversight of human expertise.

 

“At IKS Health, our mission is to enable care by removing the chores that prevent great outcomes. But for AI to be truly effective in healthcare, it must be responsible,” said Sachin K. Gupta, Founder and Global CEO of IKS Health. “By expanding our partnership with Certilytics, we are connecting payer rules and provider workflows through predictive analytics with our proven human-in-the-loop model serving as the ultimate safeguard for clinical and administrative accuracy.”

 

The collaboration initially centers on three key strategic use cases and workflows:

 

• Prior authorization transparency: Moving beyond “rules of thumb” to real-time, payer-specific rule sets where more than 70% of all prior authorization workflows are handled autonomously, reducing the burden for providers and speeding up care for patients.
• Member engagement: Scaling outreach that isn’t just a notification, but a proactive clinical connection to close care gaps.
• Consumer price transparency: Giving patients and employers true financial outlooks at the point of care, not weeks later.

 

“We are equally excited about this unique partnership with IKS Health to bring providers, health plans, payers, and plan sponsors together in making full use of the science and computing power of generative AI capabilities,” said Merle A. Ryland, CEO of Certilytics. “Since 2014, the Certilytics team has developed, tested and commercialized exclusively healthcare agentic AI applications that empower authorized, credentialed users the ability to maximize the value of their data and expertise by generating more timely answers and analysis with all the necessary governance, security, and validity inherently necessary in applying AI science to healthcare.”

 

This partnership continues an ongoing collaboration based on the shared vision of bridging the payer-provider gap through agentic AI, human oversight, and unified action.

 

“In collaborating with IKS Health over the past two years, our data science and engineering teams have created truly practical, readily deployable AI architected tools that we believe will deliver on the immense promise of this science,” said Robert Dwyer, Ph.D., Chief Data Scientist of Certilytics.

NetApp® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, and Commvault (NASDAQ: CVLT), a leader in unified resilience at enterprise scale, today announced a strategic alliance to deliver a powerful, integrated solution for enterprise data protection and cyber resilience. The unified solution enables resilience, security, and rapid recovery for customers across on-premises and cloud environments, giving organizations confidence that their data is always available, immutable, and recoverable.

 

“This alliance reinforces NetApp and Commvault’s leadership in the rapidly evolving cyber resilience and data protection market,” said Dallas Olson, Chief Commercial Officer at NetApp. “Together we’re helping customers make their infrastructure intelligent and secure so they have the confidence that their data is always available, protected, and recoverable—no matter where it lives—while expanding our joint go-to-market reach and driving growth in a high-demand segment.”

 

 

Enterprises are re-architecting their cyber resilience strategies for an AI-driven world where unstructured, mission-critical data is growing at an unprecedented scale. As analytics, AI, video, and IoT workloads surge, resilience can no longer be reactive. Recovery from ransomware and cyber threats must be rapid, automated, and inherently secure. Resilience at scale is now foundational, not optional, for compliance support, operational continuity, and competitive advantage.

 

 

This alliance addresses a critical need for scaling resilience via unified cyber detection and ransomware recovery. By combining Commvault’s leading resilience, protection, and recovery capabilities with NetApp’s enterprise-grade data platform with built-in intelligence and AI-driven ransomware detection, the companies create a highly differentiated, end-to-end cyber resilience solution.

 

 

“Organizations often detect cyberattacks like ransomware too late, after they have spread across primary systems and backups, leading to a larger blast radius, extended downtime, and missed recovery time objectives,” said Gagan Gulati, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Data Services at NetApp. “The alliance between Commvault and NetApp enables customers to further defend and recover from ransomware attacks in real-time, support compliance requirements, and help ensure business continuity across hybrid environments. By combining proven resilience and built-in detection and response capabilities, our joint customers can have the peace of mind that their data is available, protected and recoverable no matter where it lives.”

 

 

Closed Loop Recovery Architecture with NetApp Autonomous Ransomware Protection (ARP)

 

 

With this alliance, NetApp and Commvault together deliver a closed-loop recovery architecture that combines early ransomware detection signals with an automated, validated recovery workflow at scale. This approach can streamline RPOs and help organizations embrace a Resilience Operations (ResOps) strategy for a more proactive defense against cyberattacks. By integrating NetApp’s AI-powered ARP on primary storage integrated with Commvault’s threat aware backup and Synthetic Recovery, organizations can minimize data loss, accelerate complete recoveries, and regain operational confidence when it matters most. Additionally, this joint offering can help customers also realize shorter rollback windows and improved data preservation with a faster return to operations and lower downtime costs.

 

 

Future joint innovation will include leveraging NetApp ONTAP restore technology as the target to further reduce data loss and significantly improve recovery speed.

 

 

“The first step in building cyber resilience in your organization is the ability to recover with trust and speed,” said Pranay Ahlawat, Chief Technology and AI Officer at Commvault. “Together Commvault and NetApp detect potential attacks close to the data and make trusted recovery decisions to quickly, cleanly, and completely restore data at scale. Our joint customers will be able to innovate with confidence that their data and their business can be resilient in the face of disruption.”

NetApp^® (NASDAQ: NTAP), the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company, and Elastio are helping enterprises enhance their cyber resilience with a layered defense that extends from production storage into recovery data. Security teams must be ready to address threats at every layer of their technology stack, including ransomware that moved quietly through production before it was caught that now lives inside snapshots and backups. Advanced ransomware is engineered to evade prevention tools, moving quietly through production, staying below detection thresholds, reaching backup data before any alert is triggered.

 

“As we migrated our infrastructure, ensuring we had the right level of backup security and assurance was non-negotiable,” Marc Crudgington, VP IT Infrastructure and CISO, Crane WW Logistics. “Elastio provided continuous inspection of our backups from day one – giving us confidence in our ability to recover. That’s the standard we hold ourselves to.”

 

 

The companies are embedding Elastio’s Provable Recovery Control into the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service as “Powered by Elastio,” adding Deep File Inspection of snapshots. Together, the service delivers end-to-end resilience from ransomware detection through recovery – using recovery points that are continuously verified as clean.

 

 

“Storage needs to be part of the conversation when defining a holistic cyber security strategy,” Gagan Gulati, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Data Services. NetApp. “By protecting data where it lives, we make storage a priority to combat cyber threats like ransomware. But the stakes for business resilience and operational continuity are too high to rely on a single layer of defense. By collaborating with Elastio, we’re giving enterprises another tool to protect their most critical asset: data.”

 

 

A New Layer of Defense Inside the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service

 

 

• NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service: Detects and contains ransomware at the data layer in real time, takes immutable snapshots, guides recovery, and continuously assesses ransomware posture across ONTAP^® environments. Includes behavioral detection via Autonomous Ransomware Protection (ARP).
• Elastio Provable Recovery Control: Deep File Inspection of ONTAP snapshots, detecting zero-day ransomware, staged malware, and stealth corruption that evaded perimeter controls. No agents and continuously identify the last known clean recovery points.

 

 

Through this collaboration, both companies are enhancing cyber resilience for customers by embedding Elastio Provable Recovery Control directly into the NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service with no separate procurement and no architecture changes.

 

“Most organizations discover their recovery data is compromised at the worst possible moment: during an active incident,” Naj Husain, CEO, Elastio. “By then the question of whether backups are clean is no longer theoretical. The joint solution answers that question continuously, before the incident forces it.”

 

 

Availability

 

 

The NetApp Ransomware Resilience Service powered by Elastio is planned for availability in the near future. Enterprise organizations interested in early access should contact their NetApp or Elastio representative to assess their current recovery posture.

Sectigo, a global leader in automated Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) and digital certificates, today introduced Sectigo Partner Platform (SPP), the industry’s first multi-tenant partner platform purpose-built to enable MSPs, MSSPs, VARs and distributors to scale and monetize certificate management operations. With SSL/TLS certificates now expiring faster and Postquantum Cryptography (PQC) on the horizon, partners need automated tools to keep customers secure and prevent outages. SPP enables partners to build an innovative portfolio of CLM services to reduce operational risk caused by mismanaged or expired certificates and turn digital trust needs into a ready-to-sell managed service.

 

An Industry Shift Creating a Major Opportunity for Channel Partners

 

 

Recent research reveals that only 13% of organizations are extremely confident they are tracking all certificates, exposing a critical operational and visibility gap. As certificate volumes surge and renewal cycles accelerate, many organizations lack the tools and resources to keep up, creating a growing need for partners who can bring automation and visibility to certificate management. This creates a clear opportunity for partners to offer CLM services that not only expand their portfolios but help them stand out in the market.

 

 

“Shorter SSL/TLS certificate lifespans and the proliferation of certificates for nonhuman, machine identity use cases are driving unprecedented certificate volumes to manage, creating a major opportunity for partners,” said Jairo Fraile, vice president of global partner sales at Sectigo. “With Sectigo Partner Platform, MSPs can turn certificate lifecycle management into a scalable, revenue-generating managed service—reducing customer risk, preventing outages, and keeping pace with accelerating certificate lifecycles through automation and true multitenant control.”

 

 

Introducing Sectigo Partner Platform

 

 

While other vendors require partners to manage all customers under a single tenant—or repurpose enterprise CLM tools in ways they weren’t designed for—SPP delivers true multi‑tenancy. Each end customer gets a fully isolated tenant with separate usage reporting, billing, certificate inventories, and admin controls, all accessible through a single self-service interface for partners. This allows partners to maintain proper security and compliance boundaries while scaling certificate management operations. With automation-first architecture and seamless integration with Sectigo Certificate Manager (SCM), Sectigo’s award-winning CLM solution, the platform enables partners to operate more efficiently and profitably as certificate volumes surge.

 

 

A Platform That Helps Partners Scale

 

 

SPP is designed to help partners streamline certificate operations, prevent outages, and easily package CLM as a managed service. With SPP, partners can now:

 

 

• Offer CLM as a packaged, managed service.
• Eliminate manual effort with automated certificate validation, issuance, and renewal workflows.
• Prevent customer outages due to mismanaged certificates that trigger emergency tickets.
• Gain complete visibility across all customer certificates and subscription inventories.
• Create predictable recurring revenue with subscription-based licensing.
• Expand service portfolios with support for private PKI and device certificates, with flexible packaging tiers.

 

SPP sits under the broader Sectigo Partner Program, designed to help channel partners build, protect, and scale high‑value managed services practices. The program provides deal registration protection, profit‑focused discounts, and hands‑on sales and technical enablement delivered through the Sectigo Connect Partner Portal. Sectigo’s partner-friendly approach ensures partners can confidently package, sell, and scale CLM services with a protected and predictable revenue model.

 

“As certificate lifecycles continue to shrink, customers rely on us to protect them from outages and visibility gaps due to mismanaged certificates,” said Timo Aarvala, CEO at Mintly Oy. “Sectigo Partner Platform’s multi-tenant architecture gives us the control and automation we need to deliver that assurance at scale. It also opens the door for us to grow our business by offering diverse, modern services like Certificate Lifecycle Management that address the digital trust challenges of today and tomorrow.”

 

 

Explore SPP at CloudFest 2026

 

 

Sectigo is proud to introduce SPP at CloudFest 2026, the world’s #1 internet infrastructure event, and invites all conference attendees to experience the future of CLM in the Sectigo VIP Lounge, where live SPP demonstrations will be available throughout the week.

 

 

Sectigo’s team will be onsite to answer questions, explore use cases, and discuss how partners can integrate SPP into their existing service portfolios. Attendees are also encouraged to join Sectigo’s Peter Roybal, director of product management, on Wednesday, March 25 at 4:25pm CET for his session, “Racing Against the Clock on Digital Trust: Shorter Certificates, Bigger Quantum Risks.”

 

 

SPP is currently available to a select number of channel partners. Channel partners ready to modernize certificate management and increase revenue can get in touch with Sectigo today HERE.

Tezverse continues to grow as a connected Web3 ecosystem where interaction, ownership, and economic activity come together inside one evolving environment. Built around the TEZ utility token, the platform functions as a digital space where user participation plays a direct role in how the ecosystem expands over time.

 

Instead of relying on isolated features, Tezverse brings multiple layers into one environment. Interactive experiences, digital ownership, on-chain activity, and token-based participation work together to create a system where users do more than access tools.

 

They become part of a connected ecosystem that develops through real activity. As the ecosystem continues to expand, Tezverse is opening up new ways for users to explore, interact, and stay involved across the platform.

 

Tez Jackpot and Ecosystem Expansion

 

Tez Jackpot continues to highlight how wallet-based interaction and on-chain participation come together inside Tezverse. The attention around Tez Jackpot and its winners has also opened the door to the next set of ecosystem updates.

 

Aethra introduces a new digital environment inside Tezverse, giving users a more immersive space to explore and interact with the ecosystem. Tez Burst and Tez Hunt add new layers of activity, expanding how users engage with the platform and opening fresh ways to participate.

 

Tez Sports extends the ecosystem beyond the digital environment, connecting the Tezverse identity with real-world sporting presence and broader community visibility. Together, these updates reflect how Tezverse is continuing to grow into a larger ecosystem where exploration, participation, and utility keep creating new opportunities for users.

 

Tez Platform Utilities

 

Tezverse connects practical tools and interactive experiences through TEZ. TezChat is one example, giving users wallet-based AI interaction within the ecosystem. By linking usage and participation back to TEZ, the platform shows how utility and engagement can exist together inside one connected environment without depending on traditional account systems.

 

Why Participation Matters

 

“Most virtual worlds reward the moment, and then it fades. Tezverse rewards the journey. TEZ is earned, used, circulated, and returned through real activity, growing value with participation, not just play. Here, engagement builds identity, ownership carries weight, and users evolve into citizens who help shape the economy, not simply watch it,” Aboobacker Sidheeq, General Manager.

 

Global Outlook

 

Tezverse continues evolving as a digital civilization where interaction, ownership, and participation move together across an expanding ecosystem. With new environments, experiences, and ecosystem layers continuing to appear, the platform grows through user activity rather than static features. Tezverse is not a fixed destination. It is an environment that keeps opening up as more users explore, interact, and contribute over time.
