CyCraft Launches XecGuard: LLM Firewall for Trustworthy AI
TAIPEI, TAIWAN - Media OutReach Newswire - 1 July 2025 - CyCraft, a leading AI cybersecurity firm, today announced the global launch of XecGuard, the industry's first plug-and-play LoRA security module purpose-built to defend Large Language Models (LLMs). XecGuard's introduction marks a pivotal moment for secure, trustworthy AI, addressing the critical security challenges posed by the rapid adoption of LLMs. Trustworthy AI Matters The transformative power of Large Language Models (LLMs) brings significant security uncertainty, requiring enterprises to urgently safeguard their AI models from malicious attacks like prompt injection, prompt extraction, and jailbreak attempts. Historically, AI security has been an "optional add-on" rather than a fundamental feature, leaving valuable AI and data exposed. This oversight can compromise sensitive data, undermine service stability, and erode customer trust. CyCraft emphasizes that "AI security must be a standard feature—not an optional add-on," believing it's paramount for delivering stable and trustworthy intelligent services. The Imminent Need for Proactive AI Defense The need for immediate and effective AI security is more critical than ever before. As AI becomes increasingly embedded in core business operations, the attack surface expands exponentially, making proactive defenses an absolute necessity. CyCraft has leveraged its extensive "battle-tested expertise across critical domains—including government, finance, and high-tech manufacturing" to precisely address these emerging AI-specific threats. The development of XecGuard signifies a shift from "using AI to tackle cybersecurity challenges" to now "using AI to protect AI" , ensuring that security and resilience are embedded from day one. "AI security must be a standard feature—not an optional add-on," stated Benson Wu, CEO, highlighting XecGuard's resilience and integration of experience from defending critical sectors. Jeremy Chiu, CTO and Co-Founder, emphasized, "In the past, we used AI to tackle cybersecurity challenges; now, we're using AI to protect AI," adding that XecGuard enables enterprises to confidently adopt AI and deliver trustworthy services. PK Tsung, CISO, concluded, "With XecGuard, we're empowering enterprises to embed security and resilience from day one" as part of their vision for the world's most advanced AI security platform. CyCraft's Solution: XecGuard Empowers Secure AI Deployment CyCraft leads with the global launch of XecGuard, the industry's first plug-and-play LoRA security module purpose-built to defend LLMs. XecGuard provides robust protection against prompt injection, prompt extraction, and jailbreak attacks, ensuring enterprise-grade resilience for AI models. Its seamless deployment allows instant integration with any LLM without architectural modification, delivering powerful autonomous defense out of the box. XecGuard is available as a SaaS, an OpenAI-compatible LLM firewall on your cloud (e.g., AWS or Cloudflare Workers AI), or an embedded firewall for on-premises, NVIDIA-powered custom LLM servers. Rigorously validated on major open-source models like Llama 3B, Qwen3 4B, Gemma3 4B, and DeepSeek 8B, it consistently improves security resilience while preserving core performance, enabling even small models to achieve protection comparable to large commercial-grade systems. Real-world validation through collaboration with APMIC, an NVIDIA partner, integrated XecGuard into the F1 open-source model, demonstrating an average 17.3% improvement in overall security defense scores and up to 30.1% in specific attack scenarios via LLM Red Teaming exercises. With XecGuard and the Safety LLM service, CyCraft delivers enterprise-grade AI security, accelerating the adoption of resilient and trustworthy AI across industries, empowering organizations to deploy AI securely, protect sensitive data, and drive innovation with confidence.

Pakistan looking to sell excess LNG amid supply glut curbing local gas output
Pakistan is exploring ways to sell excess liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargoes amid a gas supply glut that could cost domestic producers $378 million in annual losses, according to a presentation and a government official familiar with the matter. The country has at least three LNG cargoes in excess that it imported from top supplier Qatar and has no immediate use for, and is currently selling natural gas at steep discounts to local users, a second government official said. Power generation from gas-fired power plants, which has historically accounted for a lion's share of LNG use in the country, has declined for three straight years ended 2024, with cheaper solar power use dramatically gaining at the expense of gas-fired generation, data from energy think-tank Ember showed. That has forced domestic producers of the fuel to curb production. Pakistan is currently exploring the possibility of transferring LNG cargoes to rented tankers for "offshore storage and onward sale," state-owned oil and gas producer OGDCL said in a presentation to industry and government. "Excess LNG in the gas network has resulted in significant production operations impact for local exploration and production companies over last 18 months," OGDCL said, adding that it had forced curtailment of domestic supply. The domestic industry could suffer $378 million in losses over the next 12 months at the current rate of curtailment, according to the presentation dated May 29 reviewed by Reuters. It is not immediately clear if Pakistan's long-term LNG import contracts with QatarEnergy allows for a resale of cargoes. One of the government officials said the country was still exploring ways to do it. Qatar typically has a destination clause in long-term supply contracts with buyers that restrict where the cargoes can be sold. QatarEnergy did not immediately respond to a request seeking comment. Pakistan has already deferred five contracted LNG cargoes from Qatar without financial penalty, shifting delivery from 2025 to 2026, as the country grapples with surplus capacity. Pakistan's petroleum minister Ali Pervaiz Malik declined to comment on the presentation, but said renegotiating contracts with Qatar was a "complex" process that could take at least a year, and a final decision on initiating it had yet to be made. "While the existing contract with Qatar allows Pakistan to decline vessels, doing so incurs penalties and other complications," Malik told Reuters. The glut has stemmed from several gas-fired power plants, previously operating under must-run contracts, now being sidelined, Malik said. "It was expected that summer season will create extraordinary demand but the trend indicates the opposite," OGDCL said in the presentation.

Saudi German Health UAE is setting a new standard in patient experience
Dubai, UAE — Saudi German Health UAE, one of the region's most prominent healthcare networks, has completed a critical milestone in its ongoing transformation to embed 'hospitality-caliber' service into the heart of healthcare operations. In partnership with CXM, a strategic experience transformation partner, the hospital is reimagining what it means to 'care like family'- not as a slogan, but as a lived, system-wide reality. From Vision to Execution: Embedding 'Hospitality-Caliber' Care into the Hospitals Operating Model What began months ago as a vision to reimagine how patients are treated not just medically, but emotionally and operationally has evolved into a structured, hospital-wide program. Today, with Phase 2 finalized, Saudi German Health UAE continues this journey with renewed momentum and system-wide alignment. 'Patient Experience is built when people don't just follow steps, they believe in the purpose behind them. At Saudi German Health UAE, we've been aligning care, culture, and operations around one shared truth: experience is not an initiative, it's how we lead, how we work, and how we serve.' – Ahmed Eissa, Group CEO, Saudi German Health UAE Every touchpoint, team interaction, and daily routine is being re-examined through the lens of experience: how care is felt, not just how it is delivered. In collaboration with CXM, more than 850 team members stepped into a journey of reflection, co-creation, and cultural alignment. From leadership presence to frontline dialogue, the hospital activated new ways of working rooted in empathy, clarity, and shared purpose. Experience by Design: Realigning Hospital Teams Around Purpose and Patient Outcomes Now, as the transformation moves forward, Saudi German Health UAE is preparing to enter its next chapter: co-designing the behavioral and experiential elements that will bring the philosophy of Caring Like Family to life in even deeper, more human-centered ways. This will include reimagining onboarding, empowering peer-to-peer recognition, enhancing patient journey design, and creating signature moments that leave lasting emotional impact. 'What Saudi German Health UAE has chosen isn't easy. But it's real. And it shows what's possible when patient experience is treated not as a layer but as the operating system.' – Raluca Berchiu, Founder & CEO, CXM How Saudi German Health UAE is Setting a Benchmark in Patient Experience Saudi German Health UAE is among the first healthcare institutions in the UAE to treat 'hospitality-caliber' service as essential infrastructure equal in importance to clinical protocols and operational workflows. This is about building emotional connection with patients, a level of personalization and attentiveness they expect from other industries but rarely experience in healthcare. CXM continues to support this evolution translating vision into operational reality, ensuring 'hospitality-caliber' experience is not just felt, but sustained. About Saudi German Health UAE Saudi German Health UAE is one of the region's most prominent healthcare networks, dedicated to delivering world-class medical care with a human touch. Grounded in the philosophy of Caring Like Family, it continues to raise the bar for what excellence in healthcare truly feels like. About CXM CXM is a strategic transformation partner helping hospitals and healthcare systems lead in a patient-centred era. With a focus on growth, operational excellence, and experience innovation, CXM supports healthcare leaders in embedding lasting change across performance, culture, and care delivery.
