New tier eliminates the need for manual security questionnaires, improves sales cycles and enhances trust
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Nov. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — UpGuard, a leader in cybersecurity and risk management, today announced the launch of Trust Exchange Paid. Building on the success of the Trust Exchange free offering which empowers tens of thousands of customers to effectively communicate their security posture, Trust Exchange’s premium features streamlines a persistent bottleneck in B2B sales – the manual, repetitive burden of responding to security questionnaires. This new tier of features builds upon the free Trust Exchange offering, adding the ability to create and manage multiple Trust Centers and scale security questionnaire response efficiently, expediting security posture communication at scale to improve sales cycles.
Communicating security posture is complicated, time consuming, and impacts multiple teams inside an organization. Trust Exchange addresses this challenge by giving organizations a collection of tools that increase efficiency, eliminate repeated manual effort, and streamlines security communication processes. This benefits security teams looking for efficiency in demonstrating their posture as well as sales teams aiming for shorter deal cycles. The offering is an ideal solution for organizations that have to frequently complete these questionnaires, helping them expedite their processes and improve their ability to effectively communicate their security posture.
Trust Exchange centers around two primary feature groups:
Trust Center: A centralized security communication platform for organizations to share with vendors that includes security ratings, certifications, answers to common security questions, and critical security documentation.
Questionnaire Response with AI Autofill: Trust Exchange’s AI Autofill populates and customizes responses based on answers you’ve already given, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and reducing time to questionnaire submission substantially.
“We built Trust Exchange to turn security posture communication from a hurdle into a competitive advantage,” said Jess Hooper, vice president, Product at UpGuard. “Business relationships demand trust, but establishing that trust with manual documentation over and over again is unsustainable. By giving our customers the tools to respond to questionnaires faster and the ability to customize their Trust Center, we are fundamentally changing how security and sales teams partner to support business growth.”
Trust Exchange is centered around enabling detailed and proactive communication and efficient completion of security questionnaires at volume.
Paid Features Include:
15 Questionnaire Imports a month: The platform uses AI to instantly analyze inbound security questionnaires and fills them with accurate answers, reducing time to questionnaire submission from weeks to days. When using UpGuard’s AI tools, 40% of questionnaires were able to be returned in under 2 days.
Multiple Trust Centers: Organizations can instantly spin up tailored Trust Centers for each product, market, or subsidiary instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Custom URLs: Utilize custom, branded URLs for the Trust Center, elevating the professional presentation of their security posture while building trust.
PDF Watermarks: Add additional protection and security to PDFs by adding watermarks to all Trust Center PDF downloads.
“The premium features in Trust Exchange are a game changer for security communications,” added Hooper. “Security teams can fully own and standardize the narrative by letting prospects and clients see the exact compliance documentation relevant to their needs, while also enabling Sales to make the sales cycle faster and more efficient.”

New Human Risk Management (HRM) solution provides a unified picture of internal workforce risk
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Nov. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — UpGuard, a leader in cybersecurity and risk management, today announced the general availability of UpGuard User Risk, its innovative Human Risk Management solution. User Risk strengthens UpGuard’s unified cyber risk posture management (CRPM) platform by combining internal workforce risk with established data on vendor and attack surface risk to deliver the industry’s first true 360-degree view of an organization’s security posture.
Following a highly successful beta program of more than 100,000 users, User Risk is now available to augment existing security programs. Traditional approaches leave risk data trapped in silos and rely on infrequent training simulations. User Risk gives security leaders visibility by discovering hidden risks like Shadow SaaS and compromised credentials. It provides an AI Analyst to unify and prioritize the most critical risks, and offers real-time behavioral nudges to build secure habits across the workforce, transforming employees into a proactive line of defense.
With 82% of breaches involving a human factor, managing employee risk is paramount. However, even organizations with robust training programs struggle with critical blind spots. This “Shadow SaaS” sprawl, combined with risky permissions, leaves organizations exposed. UpGuard’s new “State of Shadow AI” report highlights this significant security gap – 8 out of 10 employees use unauthorized AI tools, and 70% know of sensitive data shared with AI tools at their workplace.
“Our customers have successfully managed their external cyber risk with UpGuard’s Vendor Risk and Breach Risk products for years, but have consistently asked for a way to solve for the human element inside their organization,” said Jess Hooper, vice president, Product at UpGuard. “User Risk addresses this by giving security teams a measurable, real-time solution. We are not just training people; we are transforming awareness into secure, habitual behavior.”
UpGuard User Risk augments existing security programs through three core pillars:
Unified Visibility: Eliminates blind spots by discovering an organization’s true SaaS and AI footprint (including Shadow IT used with personal credentials), uncovering risky application permissions, and correlating identity breach data to active employees—consolidating everything into a single, comprehensive view.
AI-Powered Prioritization & Governance: Turns noise into an actionable plan using an AI Analyst to automatically score and rank risks. Custom rules allow organizations to define and enforce their security policies, moving from reactive firefighting to proactive governance.
Measurable Behavior Change: Augments traditional training with real-time, in-workflow “nudges” that act as an automated coach. This creates lasting habits by guiding employees toward safer decisions at the exact moment of risk.
User Risk is now available to all UpGuard customers. User Risk will be showcased at UpGuard Summit November 18 and 20, the premiere virtual conference for global security leaders to focus on the future of cyber risk.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 18, 2025) – Intrepid Metals Corp. (TSXV: INTR) (OTCQB: IMTCF) (“Intrepid” or the “Company“) is pleased to provide assay results from two additional diamond drill holes from the Ringo Zone, part of the ongoing 2025 drill campaign at the Company’s flagship Corral Copper Property (“Corral” or the “Property“) in Cochise County, Arizona (see Figures 1 and 2 below).
Although the Company continues to intersect copper-gold-silver mineralization that is consistent with carbonate replacement (“CRD”) systems, Intrepid has identified multiple converging geological features that demonstrate the presence of one or more porphyry centers adjacent to current drilling (see Photos 1 – 3 below). The Company has identified:
Taken together, these features form a coherent geological picture that significantly elevates Intrepid’s confidence in the potential for a porphyry discovery beneath the CRD footprint at Corral Copper.
“These results are pointing us toward something much larger at Corral,” said Mark Morabito, Chairman and CEO of Intrepid Metals. “The alteration, the mineralized clasts, and the stockwork veins we’re now seeing are precisely the indicators you expect when you’re close to a porphyry center. Individually, each feature is consistent with porphyry proximity. Collectively, they indicate that we are vectoring toward the metal source for the entire Corral Copper system. This significantly elevates the discovery potential of the project as we prepare for the next phase.”
Highlights from Holes CC25_043 and CC25_044
CC25_0432:
• 112.30 meters (“m”) of 0.52% Copper (“Cu”), 0.15 grams per ton (“gpt”) Gold (“Au”) and 3.04 gpt Silver (“Ag”) (0.59% Copper Equivalent (“CuEq”)1) including,
o 21.00m of 1.77 % Cu, 0.15 gpt Au and 8.01 gpt Ag (1.70% CuEq1).
CC25_044:
• 228.30m of 0.25% Cu, 0.17 gpt Au and 1.49 gpt Ag (0.36% CuEq1) including,
o 34.00m of 0.53% Cu, 0.47 gpt Au and 2.33 gpt Ag (0.75% CuEq1).
Evidence for Nearby Porphyry Deposit
Carbonate replacement (“CRD”) style copper-gold-silver-zinc mineralization is the dominant form of mineralization identified to date at Corral. However, Intrepid’s technical team has recognized porphyry-style alteration and mineralization that strongly support the presence of a porphyry system in close proximity to the Company’s current drilling.
Widespread QSP (phyllic) alteration has been mapped across the target area (Photo 1). This style of alteration commonly forms a halo around the core of porphyry deposits and suggests that a hotter, mineral-rich potassic core (the part of the system that typically hosts the bulk of the copper and gold) is likely nearby.
In addition, Intrepid’s technical team have identified breccia clasts containing chalcopyrite and molybdenite, minerals that originate the mineralized core of porphyry deposits (Photo 2). The angular geometry of these clasts suggests a short transport distance, indicating they were ripped from a nearby porphyry source, likely within reach of diamond drilling.
Shallow porphyry-style vein stockworks cross-cut white-mica-altered host rocks (Photo 3). These vein networks are consistent with the upper levels of porphyry systems and commonly occur directly above and/or adjacent to the mineralized core.
Taken together, these indicators provide multiple independent lines of evidence that the Corral Copper Property has potential for previously unrecognized bulk-tonnage porphyry copper-gold deposits and that the widespread CRD style mineralization identified to date can be leveraged to vector toward this style of mineralization.
Photo 1: Widespread QSP and oxidized D veins and quartz veinlet stockworks.
Extensive QSP consistent with a phyllic halo around porphyry systems.
Photo 2: Breccia clasts with chalcopyrite – molybdenite B-veins.
Clasts containing chalcopyrite and molybdenite bearing quartz veins (minerals typically formed deep inside a porphyry system) suggesting that pieces of the porphyry core were broken off and transported. Angular nature of clasts suggests a short transport distance, suggesting that the porphyry center is within reach of current drilling.
Cross-cutting porphyry-style veins demonstrate the fluid flow pathways that fed the system. This geometry and intensity can occur in close spatial association with a porphyry core or center.

All scientific and technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Daniel MacNeil, P.Geo. Mr. MacNeil is a Technical Advisor to the Company and is a qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
Mr. MacNeil has verified the drilling data disclosed in this news release, including the assay and test data underlying the information or opinions contained in this news release. Mr. MacNeil verified the data disclosed (including previously released Intrepid data underlying the information disclosed) in this news release by reviewing imported and sorted assay data; checking the performance of blank samples and certified reference materials; reviewing the variance in field duplicate results; and reviewing grade calculation formulas. Mr. MacNeil detected no significant QA/QC issues during review of the data and is not aware of any sampling, recovery or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the drilling data referred to in this news release.
As it relates to adjacent properties disclosed in this news release, Mr. MacNeil has been unable to verify the information and that the information is not necessarily indicative to the mineralization on the Corral Copper Property.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control
Drill core was first reviewed by a geologist, who identified and marked intervals for sampling. The marked sample intervals were then cut in half with a diamond saw; half of the core was left in the core box and the other half was removed, placed in plastic bags, sealed and labeled. Intervals and unique sample numbers are recorded on the drill logs and the samples are sequenced with standards and blanks inserted according to a predefined QA/QC procedure. The samples are maintained under security on site until they are shipped to the analytical lab.
All core samples were sent to ALS Geochemistry (ALS), a division of ALS Global, in Tucson, Arizona, for sample preparation, with pulps sent to the ALS Geochemistry laboratory in Reno, Nevada for analysis. ALS meets all requirements of International Standards ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 for analytical procedures and is independent of the Company. HQ size core was split and sampled over approximately two metre intervals. Samples were analyzed using: ALS’s Fire Assay Fusion method (Au-AA23) with an AA finish for gold and by gravimetric finish (Au-GRA21) for samples assaying greater than 10 ppm (gpt) gold; by a 36-element four acid digest ICP-AES analysis (ME-ICP61) with additional analysis for High Grade Cu (Cu-OG62), High Grade Zn (Zn-OG62) and High Grade Pb (Pb-OG62); and for silver assays above 100 ppm (g/t) by Fire Assay Fusion method with gravimetric finish (Ag-GRA21). ME-ICP61 results were reported in parts per million (ppm), High Grade (OG62) results were reported in percent (%). In addition to ALS quality assurance- quality control (QA/QC) protocols, Intrepid implements an internal QA/QC program that includes the insertion of sample blanks, duplicates, and standards, with QA QC control samples comprising approximately 10% of the sample stream.
About Corral Copper
The Corral Copper Property, located near historical mining areas, is an advanced exploration and development opportunity in Cochise County, Arizona. Corral is located 15 miles east of the famous mining town of Tombstone and 22 miles north of the historic Bisbee mining camp which has produced more than 8 billion pounds of copper4. Production from the Bisbee mining camp, or within the district as disclosed in the next paragraph, is not necessarily indicative of the mineral potential at Corral.
The district has a mining history dating back to the late 1800s, with several small mines extracting copper from the area in the early 1900s, producing several thousand tons. Between 1950 and 2008, various companies explored parts of the district, but the effort was uncoordinated, non-synergistic and focused on discrete land positions and commodities due to the fragmented ownership. There is over 50,000m of historical drilling at Corral mainly centered on the Ringo, Earp and Holliday Zones and although this core has been destroyed, Intrepid has a historical digital drill hole archive database which the Company uses for the purposes of exploration targeting and drill hole planning. Intrepid, through ongoing exploration drilling and surface geological mapping, sampling and prospecting is increasing confidence in the validity of this data.
Intrepid is confident that by combining modern exploration techniques with historical data and with a clear focus on responsible development, the Corral Copper Property can quickly become an advanced exploration stage project and move towards development studies.
About Intrepid Metals Corp.
Intrepid Metals Corp. is a Canadian company focused on exploring for high-grade essential metals such as copper, silver, and zinc mineral projects in proximity to established mining jurisdictions in southeastern Arizona, USA. The Company has acquired or has agreements to acquire several drill ready projects, including the Corral Copper Project (a district scale advanced exploration and development opportunity with significant shallow historical drill results), the Tombstone South Project (within the historical Tombstone mining district with geological similarities to the Taylor Deposit, which was purchased for $1.3B in 20185, though mineralization at the Taylor Deposit is not necessarily indicative of the mineral potential at the Tombstone South Project) both of which are located in Cochise County, Arizona and the Mesa Well Project (located in the Laramide Copper Porphyry Belt in Arizona). Intrepid has assembled an exceptional team with considerable experience with exploration, developing, and permitting new projects within North America. Intrepid is traded on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV) under the symbol “INTR” and on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol “IMTCF”. For more information, visit www.intrepidmetals.com.

1 Composite intervals are calculated using length weighted averages based on a combination of lithological breaks and copper, gold, silver and zinc assay values according to a 0.10% CuEq (see below) cutoff and include a maximum of 10 meters of internal dilution. All intervals reported are down hole core lengths, and true thicknesses have yet to be determined. Mineral resource modeling is required before true thicknesses can be estimated. Analyzed Grade corresponds composite weighted (“composites”) averages of laboratory analyses. Metal Equivalent assumes estimated recovery factors including 85% recovery for copper, and 80% recovery for gold, silver and zinc for reported composite intervals. Metal prices used for the CuEq and AuEq calculations are in USD based on Ag $37.00/oz, Au $3000/oz, Cu $3.80/lb, Zn $1.15/lb The following equation was used to calculate copper equivalence: CuEq = Copper (%) (85% rec.) + (Gold (g/t) x 0.71)(80% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) x 0.0077)(80% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.28)(80% rec.). The following equation was used to calculate gold equivalence: AuEq = Gold (gpt)(80% rec.) + (Copper (%) x 1.4085)(85% rec.) + (Silver (gpt) x 0.0108)(80% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.4188)(80% rec.). Analyzed metal equivalent calculations are reported for illustrative purposes only. The metal chosen for reporting on an equivalent basis is the one that contributes the most dollar value after accounting for assumed recoveries.
2 Drill hole CC25_043 contains an interval where samples could not be obtained due to loss of recovery during drilling. This interval occurs from 122.55-123.45 (0.9m). This interval is located in a mineralized core run and has been included in composite calculations but has been assigned zero assay values for copper, gold, silver and zinc for purposes of weighted average composite intercept calculations.
3 Data disclosed in this news release includes historical drilling results and information derived from historic drill results, Intrepid has not undertaken any independent investigation of the sampling, nor has it independently analyzed the results of the historical exploration work in order to verify the results. Intrepid considers these historical data relevant as the Company is using this data as a guide to plan exploration programs. The Company’s current and future exploration work includes verification of the historical data through drilling. Historical drill core assay data has been included in the Leapfrog numeric model to show the distribution of mineralization. The Copper numeric model was created using the Leapfrog® Radial Basis Function isotropic interpolant at 20m resolution with inputs from drill holes (Intrepid, 2024/2025) and historical drill hole information as well as surface rock sampling (Intrepid 2024/2025 and historical).
