Caspia Technologies Significantly Expands Agentic Silicon Security Verification with New Release of CODAx
GAINESVILLE, Fla., May 20: Caspia Technologies announced a significant expansion of its flagship security verification product CODAx. New features were described along with the impact on agentic workflows and associated customer momentum. Some details of Caspia’s security audit of the open-source Caliptra root-of- trust were also disclosed. And the company provided a preview of its communication plans over the next two months.
CODAx, Caspia’s RTL security analyser, was updated with two new AI- driven features, Asset Assist and Report Assist. These features significantly enhance the usability for wider deployment across all design teams, without requiring security expertise.
Security analysis begins with understanding what needs to be protected. Current practices in identifying security assets are manual and require expert assistance. This results in limited identification of security assets and limited scope and coverage for security analysis.
Asset Assist performs automated asset identification on the target design using design-specific details to find a much broader list of security-relevant attributes. The result is a more targeted and comprehensive security analysis. Examples of security assets include untrusted signals, protected states, and critical control signals.
Report Assist addresses the process of understanding the impact of violations to develop a prioritised solution strategy. Current practices can be extremely time-consuming and also require expert assistance. Report Assist delivers AI-driven analysis of CODAx security violations with context- driven insights, design-specific severity ratings, and tailored impact scores. This automated violation triage delivers much faster and more effective strategies to address key issues.
These new features can reduce weeks to months of security verification to minutes to hours, allowing existing design teams to perform advanced security verification at scale.
“Report Assist and Asset Assist are paving the way for automated, agentic security verification,” said Stuart Audley, VP and GM of product management at Caspia. “We are seeing significant traction across first-tier CPU, GPU, and memory providers. I am delighted to see our agentic vision begin to take shape.”
The Caliptra root-of-trust represents a production-grade, open-source security IP developed to serve as a foundational trust anchor in SoC designs. It contains over 700 design files, amounting to more than 300,000 lines of RTL code.
The analysis identified 10 critical items and over 50 high-priority findings. These vulnerabilities are exactly the kind of footholds an attacker needs to wedge into a device and take control.
Caspia shared the details of errors associated with one directive related to fault injection susceptibility for sensitive controller states. This directive analyzes the fault injection feasibility metric for finite state machine (FSM) state encodings. Caspia explained that violating this directive makes glitches or fault-induced jumps into protected behavior more feasible, impacting integrity and resulting in potential information leakage.
“The Caliptra design sees widespread use in the industry,” said Beau Bakken, VP of products at Caspia. “We are working with the appropriate contacts in the industry to share these results and assist in developing appropriate corrective action.”
On May 22, 2026, a podcast with Stuart Audley will be released that discusses agentic workflows for security verification on the Semiconductor Insiders podcast series. On June 24, 2026, SemiWiki.com and Caspia will present a webinar entitled Scaling Security Verification Across Design Teams with CODAx Static Analyzer. Beau Bakken and Dr. Zahin Ibnat will present. And on July 27-29, 2026, Caspia will exhibit at the 63rd DAC Chips to Systems Conference in Long Beach, CA. Visit Caspia in booth 759.

The Death of the Five-Year Plan in Legal Firms: New Research from The Positive Group Reveals AI has Ended Stable Planning Cycles in Big Law Firms
The traditional multi-year strategic roadmap, long a staple of the legal industry’s C-suite, is rapidly losing its relevance. This is one of the key findings from new research released today by leadership consultancy The Positive Group, which reveals that the rapid adoption of AI has dismantled stable planning cycles, forcing the world’s leading law firms into a state of “perpetual pivot.”
The study, titled The AI Leadership Challenge in Law, which was conducted in collaboration with researchers from Harvard Business School, RSGI, and Hubel Labs, is based on in-depth insights from 16 of the most influential figures in the global legal market. Participants included Managing Partners, Chief AI and Innovation Officers, and firm-wide decision-makers responsible for strategy, risk, and professional standards at firms including Orrick, Herbert Smith Freehills, Bird & Bird, Baker McKenzie, A&O Shearman, White & Case, Gilbert + Tobin, and Kramer Levin.
The Acceleration Trap
The findings paint a picture of a sector struggling to sync human cognition with technological velocity. For decades, law firms operated on predictable three-to-five-year cycles. Today, the research suggests that AI is not a discrete “transformation programme” with a finish line, but an atmospheric shift. One study contributor noted a staggering contraction in strategic timelines: “Our long-term plans were happening within about four months.”
This acceleration is reshaping how the world’s largest law firms make decisions. Multi-year roadmaps are being discarded in favour of “rolling reassessments”. What was considered cutting-edge 18 months ago—or even last quarter—is already being revised as standard practice.
However, employees are struggling to keep pace with this change – as one study participant leader reflected, “the propensity of tech change is almost unlimited… the propensity of humans to change is very limited.”
Will Marien, Director at The Positive Group, said: “The legal sector is facing a cognitive gap that technology alone cannot bridge. We are seeing a fundamental misalignment between the ‘unlimited’ propensity of tech change and the very real, biological limits of human adaptation. For leaders at law firms, the challenge isn’t just selecting employees with the right LLM; it’s managing a workforce that is being asked to adapt to rapid change every few months, while meeting client demand and working within a billable hours system.”
Rising risk of ‘automation bias’
Crucially, the research highlights a dangerous trend: Accumulation. While technology moves at light speed, organisational structures are lagging. In most instances, AI is being bolted onto existing workflows rather than triggering a fundamental redesign of how work is organised.
Lawyers are currently expected to master complex new tools and respond to shifting client expectations without any reduction in their existing caseloads. In an environment already defined by “peak workload” and billable-hour pressure, AI is frequently becoming an additional layer of complexity rather than a time-saving solution.
The result is a looming behavioural risk. The Positive Group warns that when time is constrained and cognitive load is exceeded, professionals are more likely to accept AI-generated outputs without the necessary interrogation – an “automation bias” that could have significant implications for professional standards and risk management.
The Perfection Paradox
The study also identifies a growing cultural tension within law firms. The legal profession is built on a foundation of 100% precision and total reliability. However, AI operates on a probabilistic “80/20” basis. This creates a friction point where “imperfect” tools are often rejected by cynical associates rather than being improved through iterative use.
As one study participant bluntly put it: “If we wait for perfection, we’re toast. Yet, moving too fast risks the very reputation for accuracy that these global brands are built upon.”
Will Marien added: “Leadership in the age of AI requires a shift from ‘command and control’ to ‘psychological agility.’ Without clear leadership framing, this tension between the need for speed and the requirement for precision leads to total disengagement. If firms don’t address the human element of this transition, they will find themselves with incredibly sophisticated tools that no one actually trusts or uses effectively. The end of stable planning cycles means leaders must now prioritise building resilient, adaptive cultures over rigid strategic milestones.”
The research concludes that the law firms which thrive in this new era will be those that move beyond seeing AI as an IT project and instead treat it as a fundamental challenge to human performance and organisational design.

Dust raises USD40M to make AI multiplayer inside the enterprise
Series B round with Abstract and Sequoia to scale its multiplayer AI platform for human-agent collaboration. The company now serves more than 3,000 organizations, with 51,000 monthly active users, zero churn in 2025, and 300,000 agents deployed across the platform.
San Francisco, CA – May 19; Most companies have adopted AI, but they haven’t become meaningfully more intelligent as organizations. One person prompts an assistant, gets an answer, and the context disappears into a private chat window. The result is real productivity at the individual level, with very little compounding across teams. Dust, the multiplayer agentic AI system, was built to change that by making AI collaborative, shared, and operational across an entire company.
The company today announced a $40 million Series B with Abstract and Sequoia, with participation from Snowflake Ventures and Datadog. With this round, Dust has raised over $60 million in total funding.
Why this matters now
Most organizations are stuck in what Dust calls single-player AI. Every employee has their own assistant with its own context and its own outputs. A sales rep researches an account, then the solutions engineer starts from scratch the next day. Marketing drafts a one-pager, then enablement recreates a battlecard with different inputs. The effort repeats, knowledge fragments, and gains don’t compound.
Dust argues that most AI tools used by enterprises reinforce this pattern. Foundation model workspaces and copilots are powerful, but they’re primarily designed around one individual’s workflows and context. Enterprise search tools retrieve information, but don’t take action. The outcome is more activity and more AI usage at the individual user-level, but not an intentionally designed system that compounds AI into shared leverage.
“This is a century-defining transformation, and we’re only in year three,” said Gabriel Hubert, Co-Founder and CEO of Dust. “What will transform the way we work isn’t the next best model or assistant. It’s going to be a completely new type of system that gives humans and agents shared, governed access to the same information and capabilities so that they become true collaborators, working with the same context, notifications, artifacts, and goals to compound organizational impact. This is what we call multiplayer AI, and this is what we’re building at Dust.”
What Dust is building
Dust is the multiplayer AI system for human-agent collaboration. It gives business teams a platform to build, deploy, and manage AI agents that collaborate across an organization, connected to company knowledge, integrated with the tools teams already use, and governed with enterprise-grade controls.
At the center of Dust is a collaborative surface where people and agents work together across shared context, tools, conversations, tasks, and goals. Agents can analyze, transform, and generate files — including documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and interactive data visualizations — and take action across connected systems through Dust’s context layer, which combines semantic search across company knowledge with integrations to more than 100 data sources and business tools. Built-in memory and feedback loops help agents improve over time by learning from team preferences, usage patterns, and feedback, while proactively recommending improvements.
Dust is designed for enterprise deployment, with granular permissions, cost and usage monitoring, audit trails, and agent analytics. The platform is SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR compliant, supports EU and US data residency, and does not train models on customer data, as contractually guaranteed by major model providers.
Dust runs primarily on its own product and is defining an emerging identity inside high-growth companies: AI Operators. These are the people closest to the work, inside functions like Ops, Support, Marketing, and Sales, who build and run AI systems for their teams, rewiring how work gets done from inside the business.
Traction and customer outcomes
Dust is used by more than 3,000 organizations globally, from high-growth AI-native companies to established enterprises. Monthly active adoption is consistently above 90%, with weekly active usage above 70% across customers, signaling that Dust has become embedded in how teams work. More than 300,000 agents have been deployed across the platform. In 2025, Dust saw significant customer expansion and acquisition, reaching 240% NRR with zero churn.
“Dust quickly became the platform our team runs on,” said Stevie Case, CRO at Vanta. “900 people across sales, customer success, and revenue operations save thousands of hours a week on tasks like business review prep, outbound prospecting, and forecasting. They saved this time not because it was mandated, but because the agents were built by the people closest to the work. Dust enabled the whole team to collaborate in building agents that deliver measurable value, realizing the compounding effect I’ve been waiting for AI to achieve.”
At Clay, Dust serves as foundational knowledge infrastructure for the rapidly growing GTM team, enabling the team to grow 4x without a proportional increase in enablement headcount. Profound uses Dust as the source of truth for customer intelligence and post-sales, compressing new hire ramp time from months to days. At Persona, teams across 11 departments have deployed over 300 Dust agents to condense cross-functional workflows like sales RFPs from days to minutes. Doctolib has made Dust central to its company-wide AI strategy, giving 3,000 employees smoother access to corporate information and enabling the decommissioning of legacy intranet tools.
The origin
Dust was founded by Gabriel Hubert and Stanislas Polu, who have been building together since meeting at Stanford in 2007. They previously co-founded TOTEMS, a data analytics company acquired by Stripe in 2014, and spent five years at Stripe scaling products and teams. Polu later joined OpenAI as a research engineer on Greg Brockman’s team, co-authoring papers on AI reasoning with Ilya Sutskever. Hubert became Chief Product Officer at Alan.
In September 2022, Polu left OpenAI with a conviction that became Dust’s founding thesis: the models were already powerful enough to be economically transformative, but were under-deployed because the product layer was missing. Dust incorporated in February 2023 to build that horizontal layer on top of frontier models and company knowledge, with a model-agnostic approach that avoids vendor lock-in.
“We’re in the early innings of a massive shift in how organizations use AI,” said Konstantine Buhler, Partner at Sequoia. “Most enterprise AI today is single-player: one person, one prompt, no compounding. Dust is building the multiplayer system, where agents and humans share context and work together across the entire company. Zero churn and 70% weekly active usage tell you this isn’t experimental anymore. This is how enterprises will actually operate.”
“Most AI platforms are stuck in single-player mode: one person, one chatbot, one task,” said Ramtin Naimi, General Partner at Abstract. “Dust is multiplayer. AI Operators inside companies like Datadog and 1Password don’t just use Dust; they build agents that collaborate across teams, learn from every interaction, and rewire how the entire company works. That’s a new operating model and category. That’s why we participated in this round.”
What’s next
Dust plans to use this round to push three frontiers at once: agents that learn and improve automatically as they’re used, collaboration primitives that make humans and agents equal co-contributors with bidirectional access to shared projects, tools, and context, and infrastructure that makes governance and orchestration predictable at enterprise scale. The bet is that the next phase of enterprise AI won’t be won by who has the best single assistant. It’ll be won by who turns AI into shared, compounding capability across the entire org.

Epson urges households to move beyond cartridges and laser printing with new EcoTank range
SYDNEY, May 18— Epson is encouraging Australian households and home office users to rethink how they print, with the launch of its latest EcoTank models — the ET-1910, ET-2910 and ET-2911 — designed to replace traditional cartridge and laser printers with a more cost-effective, convenient and sustainable solution.

T-2910
As cost-of-living pressures rise, many consumers continue to overlook the long-term cost of ownership associated with cartridge and laser printers, from frequent ink replacements to expensive toner and maintenance. Epson EcoTank printers are built to challenge this model, offering a smarter alternative that dramatically reduces printing costs over time.

Traditional printing systems rely on small, expensive consumables, whether it’s ink cartridges that run out quickly or laser toner systems that come with high upfront and replacement costs.
EcoTank changes this equation entirely.

ET-1910
The ET-1910, ET-2910 and ET-2911 feature Epson’s innovative refillable ink tank system, designed to deliver ultra low-cost printing without the hassle of cartridges or the complexity of laser technology. With high-capacity ink bottles included in the box, users can print for extended periods without needing to replace supplies.
EcoTank is designed with one clear advantage – lower total cost of ownership over time. Users can save up to 90% on printing costs compared to cartridge-based printers¹, while avoiding the expensive toner replacements often associated with laser devices.
Each EcoTank printer comes with enough ink to print thousands of pages, significantly reducing the need to purchase replacement supplies early on.
This makes EcoTank particularly appealing for:
• Families with ongoing school printing needs
• Hybrid workers managing home office tasks
• Small businesses watching operational costs
Beyond the cost benefits, EcoTank delivers a simpler, more user-friendly experience:
• No cartridges to replace
• Mess-free, easy-refill ink bottles
• Less frequent maintenance and interruptions

ET-2911
The ET-2910 and ET-2911 offer additional versatility with print, scan and copy functionality, along with wireless connectivity for seamless mobile and home network printing.
Meanwhile, the ET-1910 provides a straightforward, reliable print-only solution for users who want maximum value with minimal complexity.
Designed to meet the needs of today’s connected homes, the new EcoTank models combine:
• Compact, space-saving design
• Reliable everyday performance
• Simple setup and operation

Whether printing school assignments, household documents or work materials, EcoTank gives users the confidence to print freely without worrying about running out of ink or overspending on replacements.
“Many households are still stuck in the cycle of buying cartridges or dealing with the cost and complexity of laser printers,” said Phil Daidone, Senior Product Manager at Epson Australia. “With EcoTank, we’re giving customers a better alternative, one that eliminates that cycle entirely. The ET-1910, ET-2910 and ET-2911 are designed to make printing more affordable, more convenient and ultimately more sustainable over the long term.”
In addition to saving money, moving away from cartridges and laser consumables supports a more sustainable approach to printing. EcoTank significantly reduces plastic waste and ongoing consumables, making it a more responsible choice for environmentally conscious consumers.
The Epson EcoTank ET-1910, ET-2910 and ET-2911 are now available at www.epson.com.au and through retail stores nationwide.
Epson EcoTank ET-1910
Main function – printing
Connectivity – Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct and Apple AirPrint

¹Actual savings and costs will vary considerably based on print tasks, print volumes and usage conditions.
Savings and cost per ISO page are based on the cost of replacement ink bottles and the cost of enough standard cartridges to achieve the total page yields of the bottles using the RRP (AUD) and yields for Epson standard-capacity ink cartridges for similarly featured Epson consumer inkjet printers as of May 2026.
²Black and colour print speeds are measured in accordance with ISO/IEC 24734. Actual print times will vary based on system configuration, software, and page complexity.
³Included ink bottle yields based on the ISO/IEC 24712 pattern with Epson’s methodology. Actual ink yields will vary considerably for reasons including images printed, print settings, temperature and humidity. Yields may be lower when printing infrequently or predominantly with one ink colour. All ink colours are used for printing and printer maintenance, and all colours must be available for printing so an additional black (K) bottle may be required to reach stated colour (C, M, Y) yields.
