AISLE says it has reported more than 500 previously unknown vulnerabilities across more than 100 codebases. Its Prague office would become Cohere's global hub for AI cybersecurity.
EverWind announced the project on Friday without naming its anchor tenant. Anthropic confirmed later the same day that it had signed its first Canadian data centre lease, for at least 20 years.
Revenue rose 45% in the quarter to $16.8bn, after more than doubling in the one before it. The deceleration is what moved the price talk.
