January 9, 2024 / NewsShark

Argo Translation, a Chicago-based language services company, announced today the launch of CMSConnect for digital platforms. CMSConnect (Cross-Platform Multilingual Suite) connects source content seamlessly from numerous PIM, CMS, CRM, and DAM platforms for translation into nearly any language.

CMSConnect enables companies to accelerate the delivery of digital content to international markets that require high speed to market and internally when communicating to a diverse employee base that speaks different languages.

CMSConnect supports many digital platforms, including Akeneo, InRiver, SharePoint, SiteCore, Kentico, Umbraco, Adobe Experience Manager, HubSpot, SFDC, and WordPress. It delivers the same promise for every platform supported – to make translation easy by enabling the translation of content into nearly any language using a platform’s native features. Argo Translation’s solution aims at eCommerce and product management professionals who are required to manage an extensive product catalog efficiently, HR professionals who need timely communications to non-native English-speaking employees via their employee website, and marketing professionals who need to connect with international audiences at the speed of their market.

Digimarc offers free digital watermark embedding and detection tools to device and chip manufacturers and content creation platforms

January 4, 2024 / NewsShark

Digimarc announced they are now offering device manufacturers, chip manufacturers, and content creation platforms free access to its Secure, Automated, Fair, and Efficient (SAFE) digital watermark embedding and detection tools for digital assets, to protect digital content owners and consumers.

In addition to gaining compliance with upcoming global regulations, device manufacturers (camera, smartphone, tablet, laptop, and more) and content platforms can now offer content creators native (on-device or in-platform) tools to bind authenticity and ownership information to digital assets by embedding digital watermarks before assets are published, while also protecting manifests based on the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) standard. These manifests are often stripped from content when uploaded to content libraries, websites, or published on social media.

Last month, Digimarc introduced an open-source web browser extension to validate and display digital asset manifests based on the C2PA standard. The new Content Credentials Chrome extension allows content consumers to check images for C2PA manifests – adding a Content Credentials pin (“CR”) to the image if a manifest is present. The web browser extension is now available in the Chrome Web Store.
