KUALA LUMPUR, June 3 (Bernama) -- Gambit Cyber B.V., a Netherlands-headquartered cybersecurity company, has launched Vizier AI, its next-generation Agentic Security Workflow Automation platform.
According to Gambit Cyber in a statement, the platform uses coordinated artificial intelligence (AI) agents to continuously monitor threats, orchestrate incident response, and manage cyber risk without requiring manual intervention from security teams.
“The launch of Vizier AI represents a fundamental shift in how organisations approach cyber defence. We are not simply automating existing workflows; we are deploying a coordinated intelligence layer that thinks, analyses, and acts continuously on behalf of security teams.
“AI agents operating in concert can process signals, correlate threats, and orchestrate responses at a speed and scale that is simply beyond human capacity alone,” said Gambit Cyber Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Anuj Kumar.
The launch addresses a widening gap between the complexity of today’s threat landscape and the shrinking resources available to corporate security operations.
Built as a core component of the KnightGuard platform, Vizier AI acts as an autonomous Security Intelligence Workspace and leverages a coordinated network of autonomous AI agents that continuously monitor threats, analyse security data, orchestrate workflows, and deliver actionable insights for faster and more informed decision-making.
The platform enables organisations to scale security operations through AI-driven automation while maintaining visibility, governance, and control across their exposure management programmes.
Its key capabilities include threat detection through continuous AI-driven attack surface monitoring, workflow automation to reduce manual security tasks, accelerated incident response using autonomous AI agents, and intelligence generation by transforming raw security data into actionable insights.

ARGOSVISION SHOWCASES 3D VISION SYSTEM AT ECHELON SINGAPORE 2026
KUALA LUMPUR, June 3 (Bernama) -- ArgosVision, a South Korean robotics vision startup, has announced its participation at Echelon Singapore 2026 on June 3 to 4, showcasing its panoramic 3D vision system, ArgosVue, and exploring collaboration opportunities with partners in the intelligent robotics industry.
ArgosVue is a next-generation 3D vision system designed to provide robots with a human-like wide field of view for improved spatial awareness and human interaction. The system offers a 200-degree horizontal and 140-degree vertical field of view, delivering twice the coverage of conventional 3D vision sensors.
Its Chief Executive Officer, Ki-Yeong Park said ArgosVue was inspired by the concept of giving robots human-like vision, making it suitable for physical AI applications, particularly in data collection and imitation learning.
ArgosVision in a statement said the expanded field of view enables robots to perceive surrounding obstacles as well as floor and terrain conditions simultaneously, supporting navigation in unstructured and dynamic environments.
Even when a person is positioned as close as 50 centimetres from the robot, the individual’s full body remains within the sensor’s view, while the system can also detect people approaching from side angles rather than only from the front.
By offering a panoramic, human-level perspective, ArgosVue supports more complete datasets and smoother integration into robot learning pipelines.
During the event, ArgosVision will conduct live demonstrations of ArgosVue and engage with robotics companies, potential partners, and customers across Singapore and Southeast Asia.

EXPEREO REPORT: FIRMS RUSH INTO AI INVESTMENT AMID ROI CONCERNS
KUALA LUMPUR, June 3 (Bernama) -- Expereo, a managed Network as a Service provider, stated that enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) spending is rising rapidly as organisations race to deploy the technology faster than they can assess its effectiveness.
According to the latest IDC InfoBrief commissioned by Expereo, about 70 per cent of organisations are investing in AI, driven by its potential and concerns about falling behind competitors, although many continue to lag in disciplined return on investment (ROI) evaluation.
In a statement, Expereo said one in five organisations (20 per cent) admitted they were investing aggressively in AI with limited evaluation, largely due to fears of being left behind.
Based on a survey of 800 technology leaders across Europe, the United States and Asia Pacific (APAC), the report found that AI has become one of the world's top technology investment priorities, with 51 per cent of organisations saying they plan to prioritise AI or machine learning over the next 12 months.
However, returns have yet to match expectations. Only 19 per cent of organisations surveyed said their AI implementations had exceeded expectations, while just five per cent reported significantly exceeding them.
The most frequently cited reasons for underperformance were inadequate or poor-quality training data (51 per cent), higher-than-expected costs or failure to achieve ROI (47 per cent), and AI systems not performing as expected (46 per cent).
The report also highlighted a network and infrastructure readiness gap. Among organisations whose AI implementations failed to meet expectations, 26 per cent cited inadequate network or connectivity performance as a contributing factor. Looking ahead, 54 per cent said they would require more flexible and scalable networks to thrive in an AI-driven environment.
The pressure to invest is most pronounced in APAC, where 37 per cent of organisations admitted investing aggressively in AI due to fears of being left behind, nearly double the global average and significantly higher than the United States (10 per cent) and Europe (13 per cent).
APAC also leads in AI adoption, with 35 per cent of organisations reporting extensive AI use across their operations, compared with a global average of 25 per cent.
The survey also found growing concerns over the long-term risks of AI investment. Some 54 per cent of technology leaders cited new security risks as a significant future threat, while 39 per cent expressed concern about losing visibility over AI-related costs and ROI once the technology becomes embedded across the business.

KUALA LUMPUR, May 25 (Bernama) -- Stoneshield Capital, a European real assets investment firm, has signed an agreement to acquire a 15 per cent stake in Exolum from OMERS, building on its existing investment in the company.
According to a statement, the firm acquired a 4.93 per cent stake in January this year, and once the transaction closes in the third quarter of 2026, its total holding in Exolum will rise to approximately 20 per cent.
The remaining 10 per cent of OMERS’ approximately 25 per cent stake is being separately acquired by a leading global investment firm. OMERS, together with its investment partners, has been invested in Exolum since 2016.
Stoneshield Capital co-founders, Felipe Morenés Botín and Juan Pepa said the firm has followed Exolum’s progress closely as an existing shareholder, including its international expansion, operational performance and growing role in the energy transition.
“Increasing our investment and taking active board representation reflects our conviction in Exolum’s distinctive combination of real assets quality, geographic reach and strategic relevance, and our commitment to supporting management as the company continues to strengthen its position as one of Europe’s leading energy logistics platforms,” said the co-founders.
Meanwhile, OMERS Infrastructure Senior Managing Director and Head of Europe, Luca Lupo said the transaction reflects the quality of the business and the firm’s disciplined approach to portfolio management and capital rotation.
Exolum is a Spanish-headquartered global energy logistics company specialising in the transportation, storage and distribution of refined products, bulk liquids and aviation fuels, while also supporting the energy transition.
The company operates a 4,000-kilometre (km) pipeline network in Spain and a further 2,000 km network in the United Kingdom, alongside 68 storage terminals with more than 11 million cubic metres of capacity serving over 48 airports globally.
Following completion, Stoneshield Capital will assume three of OMERS’ board seats, while the second investor will take the remaining two.

Bitget Launches “Gold Fast or Go Home Challenge” for Gold CFD Trading
VICTORIA, Seychelles, May 21 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget, the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), has launched the “Gold Fast or Go Home Challenge,” a global campaign built around faster access to gold CFD trading on the Bitget app. The campaign follows Bitget’s recent product update that moved TradFi products, including gold, forex, commodities, and indices, to a first-level homepage tab, reducing the number of steps required to access these markets directly from the homepage.
The challenge invites users to record themselves by opening the Bitget app, entering the TradFi section, and completing an XAUUSD gold CFD trade as quickly as possible. Participants will publish their attempts across social platforms as part of a global speed-based trading challenge designed around accessibility, execution flow, and real-time market participation. The campaign combines trading culture with short-form social content, turning product speed into a visible user experience.
The campaign reflects Bitget’s broader direction of bringing traditional financial assets closer to crypto-native trading environments through a unified interface. Users can move between crypto assets, tokenized products, forex pairs, commodities, and gold CFD markets from a single account structure without switching across multiple platforms, wallets, or trading systems.
“Users increasingly move between crypto and traditional financial markets within the same trading cycle, especially during periods shaped by macro volatility,” said Gracy Chen, CEO at Bitget. “We have designed the platform to make these markets more directly accessible inside the app. The challenge turns that trading flow into a public and community-driven experience that shows how multi-asset trading behavior is evolving.”
Gold trading activity has continued gaining traction globally as investors monitor interest rate expectations, central bank accumulation trends, inflation risks, and geopolitical uncertainty. Across digital asset platforms, gold CFDs have become one of the most actively monitored TradFi products during periods of elevated volatility, particularly as users look for faster access to macro-sensitive assets without leaving crypto-native trading environments.
The homepage TradFi integration forms part of Bitget’s wider Universal Exchange strategy focused on reducing fragmentation between digital assets and traditional financial markets. As more users diversify across asset classes, trading platforms are increasingly expected to support crypto, commodities, equities, FX, and tokenized assets within a single interface and collateral system. Bitget’s TradFi expansion reflects growing market demand for unified multi-asset access and faster capital movement between trading categories.
The launch also follows Bitget’s continued expansion of its TradFi offering across global markets. The platform currently provides access to crypto markets alongside tokenized stocks, ETFs, commodities, forex pairs, and precious metals such as gold within one trading ecosystem. In 2026, Bitget repositioned its TradFi section to the app homepage as part of a broader effort to simplify market access and improve execution efficiency across multi-asset trading activity.

About Bitget
Bitget is the world’s largest Universal Exchange (UEX), serving over 125 million users and offering access to over 2M crypto tokens, 100+ tokenized stocks, ETFs, commodities, FX, and precious metals such as gold. The ecosystem is committed to helping users trade smarter with its AI agent, which co-pilots trade execution. Bitget is driving crypto adoption through strategic partnerships with LALIGA and MotoGP™. Aligned with its global impact strategy, Bitget has joined hands with UNICEF to support blockchain education for 1.1 million people by 2027.

PRIMER SECURES US$100 MLN FUNDING FOR AI, US EXPANSION
 |
| Primer leadership team pictured left to right. Top row: Pierre-Edouard Jumel (CFO), Gabriel Le Roux (Co-Founder and CEO), Sam Elgar (VP Merchant Experience) and Theo Spyrides (VP Product). Bottom row: Caitriona Staunton (VP People), Alex Mallet (CTO), Jade Maitland (VP Marketing) and Mikael Minvielle (COO). |
KUALA LUMPUR, May 20 (Bernama) -- Primer, the unified infrastructure for global payments, has secured a US$100 million Series C funding round as it expands its artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled operating layer for global payments and finance. (US$1=RM3.97)
The funding round was led by Sofina, with participation from Peak XV Partners and continued backing from existing investors, including Balderton Capital, Accel, ICONIQ Capital, Tencent, and Speedinvest.
In a statement, Primer said the new funding will support expanded investment in AI capabilities, including the development of its proprietary AI agent, Primer Companion.
The company said Primer Companion is already being used by merchants to address payment-related queries and generate contextual insights, with future capabilities expected to include autonomous experimentation, performance optimisation, and execution within merchant-defined parameters.
Primer said fragmented payment data across processors, acquirers, and fraud tools remains a major challenge for businesses seeking to deploy AI-driven payment systems effectively.
Founded in 2020, the company said its unified payments infrastructure captures more than 400 data points per transaction and manages more than 95 per cent of customer payment volume on average.
According to Primer, the United States (US) currently accounts for around one-fifth of company revenue, with annual recurring revenue in the region doubling year-on-year.
The company plans to increase US revenue to more than one-third of its business by 2028 and expects to hire up to 50 employees in the region to support its expansion strategy.
