Quanergy Systems, Inc., a global leader in the design and development of solid state LiDAR sensors and smart sensing solutions, today announced the availability of its M8 LiDAR sensor with Power over Ethernet (PoE+). This new connector interface, designed specifically for the security market, allows the sensor to be easily installed and integrated with new or existing security systems, without costly custom wiring to power the LiDAR sensor.
Surveillance systems leverage PoE to transmit power and data across the sensor and system. The IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) specification provides more power to PoE-powered devices and allows for a broader range of devices to be easily integrated into a network via standard Ethernet cable. The release of the M8 with PoE+ allows for a simpler, more flexible installation of LiDAR-based security systems. Its plug-and-play usability permits customers to make use of their existing security infrastructure when upgrading to a LiDAR-based security solution, leading to significant savings in implementation cost and time.
The M8 sensor’s long range and 360 degree field of view enables systems to detect and track potential intruders before they physically breach a perimeter. The M8 PoE+ provides a signifcantly smaller overall footprint than other PoE+ sensors and radars. Unlike traditional security camera technology, the M8 operates successfully in challenging weather environments as well as in the dark. Paired with Quanergy’s proprietary LiDAR perception software, QORTEX for Security™, the M8 can be used as a standalone solution, or as an integrated component of a larger security system.
“We built the M8 with Power over Ethernet to enable our security customers to implement a LiDAR-based security system as easily as they would a camera-based surveillance system,” said Dr. Louay Eldada, CEO of Quanergy. “Our LiDAR sensors lead the industry in price, performance, and reliability. With PoE+, our customers can easily harness the power of LiDAR to ensure the highest level of security and awareness around vulnerable perimeters, protecting critical infrastructure such as airports, national borders, subways, power plants, oil fields and prisons.”
In addition to offering its technology as a standalone security solution, Quanergy deploys its technology in partnership with public safety and security technology firms (system integrators or SI) such as Vision Logic, many of whom are already using Power over Ethernet to connect other surveillance tools, such as IP cameras. This new availability allows SIs to flexibly incorporate Quanergy’s LiDAR technology into existing security systems, reducing installation time and costs.
“Integrating LiDAR technology into our video surveillance and facial recognition systems enables us to offer an unparalleled level of security and awareness to our customers,” said John Walsh, co-founder of Vision Logic. Graham Conran, co-founder and CEO of Vision Logic added “With Power over Ethernet, we can more easily incorporate Quanergy’s industry leading LiDAR sensors into our public safety and security platforms, tailoring our solutions to each of our customers’ needs.”
The M8 with PoE+ will be on display at two leading security industry events. Quanergy will be exhibiting at GSX in Las Vegas, September 25-27, in booth #2885. At Security Essen in Germany, September 26-28, the sensor will be in both the Milestone Systems and Genetec booths in Hall 5. Genetec will be in booth #5G30 and Miletsone will be in booth #5F10. General availability of the M8 sensor with PoE+ is November 2018.

Klarna Card reaches 5 million active customers19.3.2026 15:31:00 CET | Press release
Klarna, the global digital bank and payments provider, today announced that the Klarna Card has reached 5 million active customers globally, underscoring rapid adoption as consumers shift towards new forms of payment which provide more control over day-to-day money management. The card draws from the customer's own funds for everyday spending, with the option to spread the cost of a specific purchase, like a large appliance or a flight, when it makes sense to do so. The result is a card that offers genuine spending control without the long-term debt obligations that come with traditional credit cards. The card’s growth is reinforced by Klarna’s membership program. The program offers premium perks such as airport lounge access, travel insurance, and lifestyle subscriptions — without requiring users to take on debt, meet spending thresholds, or revolve balances. By separating everyday spending from rewards, Klarna is challenging the strings-attached model legacy banks have long relied on

Armis Launches First-of-Its-Kind Benchmark Report Warning of Critical Security Gaps in AI-Native Development19.3.2026 13:00:00 CET | Press release
Research reveals 100% of leading generative AI models fail to generate secure code for critical development scenarios Armis, the cyber exposure management & security company, is warning that the rapid enterprise adoption of AI-native development is outpacing critical security safeguards, leaving organizations exposed to systemic vulnerabilities. New research from Armis Labs’ Trusted Vibing Benchmark Report, which evaluates 18 leading generative AI models across 31 test scenarios, reveals a 100% failure rate in generating secure code. These vulnerabilities are most prevalent in high-risk areas like memory buffer overflows, design file uploads and authentication systems. Therefore, organizations should immediately implement AI-native application security controls to reduce risk. “The era of vibe coding is here, but speed should not come at the cost of security,” said Nadir Izrael, CTO and Co-Founder of Armis. “Our research finds that the worst offenders are the same ones selling security
Morocco’s FRMF Welcomes CAF Appeal Board as Upholding Rules, Stability of International Competitions19.3.2026 12:53:00 CET | Press release
Following the announcement by the CAF Appeal Board, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) welcomes the decision, which reaffirms the primacy of competition regulations and reinforces the conditions necessary for the proper conduct of international tournaments. From the outset, following the incidents that led to the interruption of the match, the FRMF maintained a clear and consistent position: the strict application of the governing regulations. The Federation’s approach was solely guided by this principle. Following its appeal, CAF has now confirmed that the applicable regulations were not properly enforced. Throughout the process, the FRMF acted in full compliance with all relevant legal and procedural frameworks, with a constant focus on upholding its rights and preserving the integrity of the competition. This decision provides clarity on the applicable framework and strengthens the consistency and credibility of international competitions, particularly within African foot
