• O’Neil Risk Consulting & Algorithmic Auditing Reviews HireVue’s AI Algorithms
  

SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HireVue, the global leader in video interviewing, assessments, chatbot and recruiting automation technology, today made two announcements to extend its leadership position defining the transparent and appropriate use of AI and software as part of the hiring process.

HireVue released the results of an algorithmic audit by O’Neil Risk Consulting & Algorithmic Auditing (ORCAA). The audit concluded that “[HireVue] assessments work as advertised with regard to fairness and bias issues.” ORCAA’s CEO and founder, Cathy O’Neil, and her team audited an assessment used in hiring early career candidates (including from college campuses) as a representative use case that was developed with HireVue’s methodology. Moving forward, HireVue and ORCAA will continue to collaborate on ways to further enhance HireVue’s offerings. As a result, HireVue aims to set a high industry bar for candidate transparency and equality of access.

Independently, early in 2020, HireVue proactively removed the visual analysis component from all of its new assessments. HireVue’s internal research demonstrated that recent advances in natural language processing had significantly increased the predictive power of language. With these advances, visual analysis no longer significantly added value to assessments. HireVue published a review of these supporting findings.

“Democratizing the hiring process for candidates and employers is the foundation on which HireVue stands. Our news today reaffirms HireVue’s leadership role in defining the best, most appropriate use of AI in hiring, and our commitment to rigorous, ongoing measurement of the impact our software has on individual candidates, our customers, and society as a whole,” said Kevin Parker, Chairman and CEO of HireVue. “Along the way, we adhere to a strict set of ethical principles that ensures both employer and candidate are assured of a fair, diverse and inclusive hiring journey.”

Ongoing Commitment to Fairness

HireVue has a long, established track record delivering science-led ethical AI solutions for hiring:

• The company follows established best practices in the field of IO Psychology and data privacy, so that our assessments meet the strict standards of fairness from agencies such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the American Psychological Association (to name a few).
• In 2019 HireVue became the first HR technology company to create an expert advisory board and publicly release a set of AI ethical principles. HireVue undertook these steps knowing that transparency, concrete guideposts, and the input of experts is the best way to uphold their principles.
• HireVue supports the Illinois Artificial Intelligence Video Interview Act (AIVIA), and the company is open to ongoing involvement in conversations around the regulation and use of AI in hiring.

• CBD Roll-on

Boulder, Colo., Jan. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Spectra Logic, a leader in data storage and data management solutions, today announced the latest release of its award-winning StorCycle^® Storage Lifecycle Management software. StorCycle 3.3 comes with a range of new features including an open RESTful API that allows users to integrate StorCycle into a broader set of workflows, as well as new enhancements that advance the software’s ability to migrate data to disk, tape and cloud storage, including all tiers of Amazon^® and Microsoft^® Azure^®.

StorCycle is a storage lifecycle management software solution that ensures data is stored on the right tier throughout its lifecycle for greater IT and budgetary efficiencies. Created for organizations that need lasting protection and access to data which is no longer active, but still critical to retain, StorCycle scans primary storage for inactive files and migrates them to a lower cost tier of storage, which includes any combination of cloud storage, object storage disk, network-attached storage (NAS) and object storage tape. Interoperable with Linux and Windows, StorCycle migrates data, without changing original formats, and allows users to have easy access to all data including data migrated to higher latency storage mediums like cloud “cold” tiers and tape.

StorCycle 3.3 delivers the following new benefits:

• Open API

With the exposed RESTful API, users can take advantage of StorCycle’s core features, including scanning, migrating, and restoring data to build integrations and applications that leverage StorCycle’s Storage Lifecycle Management capabilities. The exposed API is an excellent tool for advanced users who wish to integrate StorCycle into wider workflows. In addition to providing core commands to configure storage locations, the API helps users build applications to better manage jobs or perform bulk actions without using the web interface.

• Extended Cloud Support to Microsoft Azure and Amazon

StorCycle 3.3 extends cloud support to Microsoft Azure, including both the standard (hot/cool) and archive tiers. Azure can be used as a storage target for migrate/store jobs, helping organizations leverage the cost-effectiveness and ease of cloud storage. This is in addition to StorCycle’s existing support for Amazon S3 standard and archive tiers. Additional support for Amazon has also been added in StorCycle 3.3 so that users can leverage StorCycle’s capability to tier data to Glacier and Deep Archive from standard tiers after a migration.

• Automated Restore Notification Alerts

When configuring a restore job, StorCycle users now have the ability to request automatic email alerts when the restore job completes. This is especially helpful and convenient for restore jobs which may take several hours (such as with Amazon Glacier or Azure Archive).

• Real Time Performance and Progress Data

Real time performance and progress data is now displayed when a migrate or restore job is active. Migrate/store and restore jobs will display the data rate (MB/s), the amount of data transferred thus far and the job size. Scan jobs will display the total directories and files migrated per second. Each performance chart is easily available on the respective jobs pages (migrate, restore, scan), as well as the main jobs page which will display all active jobs in StorCycle. This feature is especially useful when many large jobs are running in parallel and other organizational tasks depend on job completions.

• OpenLDAP

In addition to Active Directory, StorCycle now provides full support for OpenLDAP for user authentication. When configured, users on the LDAP domain can be given Restore User permissions where they are able to restore migrated data without Administrator assistance. Configuring OpenLDAP also makes it easier for Administrators to add named users to StorCycle, where they can be given additional permissions in the application, such as Administrator or Storage Manager roles.

StorCycle — Award-Winning Software

StorCycle won several product awards for excellence in innovation, data management and cloud enablement in 2020. The list includes: Digital Media World 2020 Gold Awards– StorCycle^® Storage Lifecycle Management software earned the 2020 Digital Media World Award in the Best Digital Asset Management award category. Spectra’s StorCycle was recognized for its ability to bring visibility and insight to better manage storage volumes through intelligent tiering and data migration, while maintaining direct, consistent access to migrated assets and enhancing search capabilities with the use of metadata tags. The Cloud Awards – StorCycle was a finalist in the international Cloud Computing Awards program, The Cloud Awards. StorCycle was recognized as the Best Hybrid Cloud Solution for enabling organizations to implement a more effective and efficient hybrid cloud solution which reduces data storage costs while optimizing data protection. The Storries – StorCycle software was honored with the Storage Innovation of the Year award by Storage Magazine, which recognizes Spectra’s innovation in providing one of the industry’s most effective storage lifecycle management software solutions to enhance IT infrastructures. DCS Awards – StorCycle software was a finalist for the Product of the Year category by the 2020 DCS Awards, which rewards the achievements of product designers, manufacturers, suppliers and providers operating in the data center arena in Europe.

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Jan. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Flooding has arguably become one of the most devastating natural disasters, impacting millions of homes and businesses every year. Changing climate and extending flood zones have potentially placed more homes at risk without the knowledge of insurers or policyholders. To meet the increased need for accurate flood coverages, Flow Insurance Services (Flow), a California-based, Lloyds coverholder and program manager, has launched both a private residential and a commercial flood comparative rater, FlowRater, on ClarionDoor.

With flooding not covered by standard homeowners’ insurance, many homeowners are unknowingly at risk of not being protected. In fact, flood insurance is so often overlooked that only 15 percent of U.S. homeowners have separate flood insurance policies.

“FlowRater is innovating the way agents purchase flood insurance by utilizing single point entry and taking what would be a 30-minute exercise in quoting down to three minutes,” said Michael Pallas, co-founder of Flow, about mitigating the problem.

“We have seen a significant increase in flood activity over the last several years and it is crucial that homeowners are properly protected,” said Abbe Sultan, co-founder of Flow. “Our goal is to be the agent’s solution for the best flood insurance options available on the market. ClarionDoor’s modern insurance platform has enabled us to do that and establish connections to our distribution channels in record time so we can better service our agency partners.”

ClarionDoor’s API-first, digital distribution platform provides insurers and managing general agencies (MGAs) the flexibility needed to create, launch, and distribute products for any line of business. With a deeper bench of data experts, implementation times that easily beat industry norms, guaranteed uptimes, and real-time scalability, ClarionDoor helps insurers and MGAs achieve immediate improvements in critical processes.

“MGAs have the unique challenge of not only providing a streamlined service to their customers, but also establishing seamless relationships with distribution channels,” said Patrick McCall, chief sales officer at ClarionDoor. “We are proud to have been part of the solution for Flow.”
