WISeKey to protect US consumers against cyber-attacks on personal data
WISeKey to protect US consumers against cyberattacks on personal data
WISeID protects Digital Identities against Social Media abuses (to download a free WISeID App visit www.wiseid.com) on consumers’ right to know, control and delete personal information collected by businesses
New York, June 6, 2019 – WISeKey International Holding Ltd (“WISeKey”, SIX: WIHN), a leading cybersecurity and IoT company today announced the launch of a new version of its WISeID App specially designed for US consumers which includes new features focused on consumers’ rights to know and control their personal information as well as transparency requirements related to companies’ data practices.
The United States Privacy Act places a great emphasis on consumers’ right to know, control, opt-out of the sale of their personal information and also request the deletion of their personal information that businesses have collected.
Following the recent news about the misuse of people’s personal information, although some social media companies are working to upgrade their platforms to give users more control over their Digital Identity, this is not enough to protect user’s personal information as the social network platforms continue to remain in control of the user’s Digital Identities. The internet has changed our lives in countless positive ways, but it also has a dark side… personal privacy has been lost, leaving users at risk of abuses from entities collecting their data without their consent.
Technologies like WISeID.com provide consumers with the power to control their privacy, so the right to understand what information is being collected, to be forgotten and to be deleted is always under their control. A Digital Identity is like a Birth Certificate, it belongs to and it is always under the control of the user. Social media companies are creating pseudo Digital Identities with the data provided by the user, without their consent. In contrast to Social Network Credentials and Identities where social media companies provide users with ID credentials to access their services, WISeID’s are built to empower individuals to control the formalization of their identity, manage their digital personas, and actively monetize their personal data. These WISeID’s are used by global institutions, governments and other service providers to collaborate and share sensitive information outside of their internal, trusted ecosystems.
For almost two decades, WISeKey has contributed to the design and implementation of global standards for the internet’s long-missing identity layer: decentralized, point-to-point exchange of information about people, organizations, or things – enabled by Blockchain and certified by cryptographic Root of Trust. WISeKey’s technology, products and services are used by individuals and organizations to facilitate this control and as consequence to be in compliance with the new European General Data Protection Regulation (Directive 95/46/EC), known as GDPR (approved by the European Parliament in April 2016 and went in effect on May 25, 2018), the primary law regulating how companies protect EU citizens’ personal data.
To that effect, WISekey has launched an enhanced version of WISeID specially designed for US consumers and adapted to the new US legislation on data protection, adding easy to use strong authentication and email security capabilities that can remediate threats like phishing, ransomware or identity theft. The use of passwords implies risks, as it’s a simple security factor that can be stolen using phishing techniques (e.g. a fake email from the bank asking the user to log into a rogue web page using eBanking credentials) or it can be simply guessed if not complex enough (many users prefer to use simple passwords, by fear of forgetting it).
Strong Authentication is a mechanism able to enhance security by complementing the traditional username/password access to online services with additional security factors, like biometry, hardware tokens and one-time-passwords. Additionally, secure eMail techniques allow confidential messages to be exchanged encrypted, and to affix a “digital signature” to the outgoing email, ensuring the recipient that the message comes from a genuine person and that has not been manipulated in the way.
Nevertheless, the above techniques haven been always cumbersome and expensive to adopt for non-technical users, which aren’t necessarily high-tech experts, willing to secure their digital life with easy-to-use applications and mobile devices.
WISeKey’s WISeID is a mobile suite of applications that bring security to consumers and professional users when storing confidential information and communicating with their mobile devices. The main App in this suite, WISeID Personal Vault, has been just enhanced to include two main features:
- WISeID Authenticator: a secure login feature, based in the HMAC standard and compatible with Google Authenticator, which works with many existing online services like Gmail, Facebook and others. When login in one of the compatible websites, the user can generate “one-time passwords” directly from WISeID and use it to reinforce its regular password, making very hard for a hacker to steal user credentials and get access to important resources like confidential information, eBanking services, etc.
- Free Digital Certificate: the new WISeID simplifies the steps to generate a digital certificate and integrate it with the device system applications like email, making thus easy to secure email with encryption and digital signatures. This service is based in standards like X.509 and S/MIME, so compatible with any device and operating system.
WISeID uses a “freemium” business model, so users can use most features for free, while some enhanced capabilities, like the backup of confidential information in WISeKey’s hyper-secure cloud systems hosted in a secure datacenter in Switzerland, are paid-for features.
It is critical to ensure that personal data is managed for legitimate purposes and with user consent. The recent user data scandal, is just one example on how personal data can be captured, exploited and misused. Managing consent appropriately is a challenge for many organizations, and WISeID solutions for electronic signatures can provide a highly secured mechanism to process these consents in a way which is both legally binding and convenient, by reducing the need to manage paper documents. The entire debate to protect users against social media abuses should focus on the need to force these social media platforms to offer their users a secured platform and ability to protect their personally identifiable information (PII). Protecting users PII is important to avoid impersonation and identity theft and to data mine their personal data. WISeID give users the ability to control and protect their confidential data as the PII is encrypted before leaving the user’s device, with strong keys derived from a password that users choose, and which is never communicated to WISeKey or third parties. Also, the rationale and the purpose for collecting user’s data is transparent and the consent of the subject is obtained in advance, making sure that users are always in control of their PII. “Basically, users don’t mind providing social media companies with their personal data if that data cannot be used by third parties to track them and their identity,” noted Carlos Moreira, Chief Executive Officer and founder of WISeKey.

Medical Cannabis Market Report 2024-2030: Asia-Pacific Set to Witness Robust Growth, Driven by R&D Discovery Initiatives
Schwazze Management to Host Conference Call Today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time
DENVER, May 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Medicine Man Technologies, Inc., operating as Schwazze, (OTCQX: SHWZ) (Cboe CA: SHWZ) (“Schwazze” or the “Company”), today announced financial and operational results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
“We delivered another period of revenue growth in Q1 as we further refined our retail strategy while contending with the prolonged competitive challenges in Colorado and New Mexico,” said Forrest Hoffmaster, Interim CEO of Schwazze. “Throughout the quarter, we continued to sharpen our pricing and promotional efforts while enhancing the in-store experience, widening assortment, improving in-stock position, and advancing our loyalty program to attract and retain new customers. We also strengthened our wholesale business with quarter-over-quarter growth, while surpassing 30% total door penetration across both states.”
“The Colorado market remains highly competitive with more than 680 active recreational licenses, underscoring the importance of delivering an exceptional customer experience and fully integrated retail support program. Although retail pricing has recently stabilized, Colorado sales in Q1 were down 10% year-over-year due to lower volumes. Nonetheless, we significantly outpaced the market as our sales were up 9%, demonstrating the effectiveness of our operating playbook to compete in challenging environments. We expect to continue driving improvements in customer acquisition, retention, and loyalty as we further increase market share in the state.”
“In New Mexico, the proliferation of new licenses continued to outpace state cannabis sales as store count in Q1 increased 31% year-over-year while the market grew only 13%. In addition to pricing and promotional efforts, we’ve focused on driving traffic into our stores by expanding assortment with high quality flower and delivering an elevated customer experience. The New Mexico regulatory body has also increased its license enforcement efforts in recent months, contributing to more than 70 store closures and a 33% sequential decrease in net new store openings in the first quarter. We will continue to support the New Mexico Cannabis Control Division as it develops its regulatory framework.”
“Over the past four years we have rapidly scaled our footprint through 13 acquisitions, building a leading retail presence in both Colorado and New Mexico. We are beginning to see positive momentum from our pricing and promotional strategy and will remain focused on driving operating efficiencies while further optimizing our assets as we consolidate cultivation facilities and eliminate underperforming stores that do not meet our high-margin thresholds. We believe these initiatives, coupled with our operating playbook and strict cost controls, will enable us to return to stronger levels of profitability moving forward.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Total revenue in the first quarter of 2024 increased 4% to $41.6 million compared to $40.0 million for the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to growth from new stores compared to the prior year period, partially offset by continued pricing pressure and the proliferation of new licenses in New Mexico.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2024 was $17.9 million or 43.1% of total revenue, compared to $21.8 million or 54.6% of total revenue for the same quarter last year. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by the aforementioned pricing pressure in New Mexico, as well as higher medical sales mix in Colorado.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2024 were $20.6 million compared to $16.2 million for the same quarter last year. The year-ago period benefitted from a payroll tax credit of $3.9M. The remaining increase was primarily driven by personnel expenses and four-wall SG&A costs associated with 21 additional stores in Colorado and New Mexico that are still ramping.
Loss from operations for the first quarter of 2024 was $2.7 million compared to income from operations of $5.6 million in the same quarter last year. Net loss was $16.1 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to net income of $1.7 million for the same quarter last year.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 was $7.3 million compared to $14.5 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by lower gross margin and higher operating expenses associated with the 21 additional stores that are still ramping.
As of March 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents were $13.2 million compared to $19.2 million on December 31, 2023. Total debt as of March 31, 2024, was $159.7 million compared to $156.8 million on December 31, 2023.
