SMX Technology Can Be The Countdown Clock-Stopper to Infrastructure's Zero Day (NASDAQ:SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 26, 2025 / In Zero Day, the lights flicker, the grid stumbles, and within minutes, society is knocked back to the Stone Age. That's the drama of the show. But it's also a projection of what experts already know. Modern life runs on interconnected systems that assume authenticity. The moment that assumption is violated at scale, trust collapses. A simple blackout becomes a national security event. A jammed channel morphs into a cascade of failures that reach every corner of the economy.
The SMX-CETI Alliance That Can Bankrupt Fashion Fakes (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 26, 2025 / The fashion industry has always traded on image. Logos, marketing campaigns, and glossy runway shows built brands into billion-dollar icons. But behind the glamour sits a brutal reality: supply chains stretched across continents, sustainability promises that often collapse under scrutiny, and counterfeiters who exploit every blind spot. In this environment, words are cheap, and ingredients are even more so. Proof is what has become priceless.
Counterfeiters Beware: CETI and SMX Team Up to Terminate Fake Fashion (NASDAQ:SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 26, 2025 / For decades, counterfeiters have thrived in the shadows, hijacking fashion's prestige and siphoning billions from an industry built on brand, trust, and craftsmanship. Fake bags, knockoff sneakers, and copycat fabrics have been smuggled into every corner of commerce, draining value from labels that spend fortunes building reputations. The damage isn't just economic. It erodes consumer trust, dilutes sustainability claims, and turns e-commerce platforms into digital flea markets where fraud masquerades as fashion. The scale is staggering, with trillions lost as of 2025 and counterfeiters adapting faster than the safeguards designed to stop them.
SMX Technology Does More Than Defend Against Cyber War’s First Strike…It Prevents It (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 25, 2025 / They found 300 SIM servers and more than 100,000 SIM cards parked in abandoned apartments inside a 35-mile ring of Manhattan. That was not a garden-variety spammer. That was an industrial logistics play built to disappear into the noise until it became the noise. The Secret Service says the network could have sent tens of millions of messages per minute, jammed cell towers, and blocked emergency channels at a moment when world leaders were in the city. That is the scale problem. Scale turns cheap chips into national weapons.
Not Bombs, But Bytes: How SMX Could Prevent the Grid or Nuclear Facility Attack Everyone FearsNEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 25, 2025 / Pearl Harbor was a failure of imagination, 9/11 was a failure of detection, and the SIM-farm that almost went live in New York is a failure of provenance. They found 300 servers and more than 100,000 SIM cards tucked into apartments inside the city's orbit. That was not a prank or a fraud ring. That was logistics at scale, built to turn everyday telecom hardware into a weapon of disruption. The haunting part is that the operation was domestic. It was not hidden in an adversary's backyard. It was parked on our doorstep, waiting for a bell to toll.
SMX Delivers What Three Decades of Sustainability Pledges Couldn't: PROOFNEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 25, 2025 / For nearly three decades, world leaders have gathered at United Nations Climate Change Conferences, flying in with the intention of collaborating and issuing declarations meant to inspire. Yet despite the sincerity of these efforts, the outcome at last year's COP 29 felt all too familiar. Like the 28 before it, the summit ended with carefully crafted promises but little in the way of tangible results. The lesson is clear: debate does not recycle, and speeches cannot extinguish fires. The planet isn't asking for more consensus - it's asking for proof.
Scary Times: The Plot That Nearly Crippled the UN's Networks Could Succeed Tomorrow (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 24, 2025 / The news cycle barely had time to breathe before the story broke: federal agents uncovered a sprawling SIM farm hidden across abandoned properties around New York City. At its peak, it was primed to unleash 30 million text messages per minute, threatening to cripple cell networks just as world leaders convened for the UN General Assembly. The operation was elaborate, built on 100,000 SIM cards and hundreds of servers, with the intention of overwhelming real communication with manufactured chaos.
What Happened in the UN Sim-Card Plot Yesterday Can Happen Anywhere, Anytime (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 24, 2025 / This week's foiled SIM-card plot in New York should be read as both a relief and a lesson. The boots on the ground from the Secret Service, FBI, and local partners deserve absolute praise. Their persistence, tireless surveillance, and hundreds, if not thousands, of man-hours turned up the break that stopped a sprawling SIM farm before it could silence or alter critical communications during the UN General Assembly. That kind of work matters, and it must be applauded.
Proof in Practice: SMX Technology Powers "Local to Global" Plastics Passport Initiatives (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 23, 2025 / Decades of global conferences have carried genuine ambition to solve the twin crises of recycling and safety. Year after year, leaders from around the world gather with the intent to act, pledging bold commitments and setting inspiring targets. The passion is real, the urgency is evident, and the desire to create meaningful change is undeniable.
After 30 Years, Are We Failing? COP 29 Asked the Question; SMX Provides the AnswerNEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 22, 2025 / "After 30 years, the question is, are we failing? We must seize what may be our last opportunity." With that statement at COP 29 - the 29th United Nations Climate Change Conference - Prime Minister Russell Dlamini of Eswatini gave voice to a reality the world can no longer ignore. The intent behind these gatherings is genuine. Leaders and negotiators arrive determined to chart a better course for humanity. But sincerity is not the same as success.
The UN's COP 29 Climate Summit Showed the Challenge; SMX Shows the Solution (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 22, 2025 / The world is drowning in conferences. COP 29, the latest UN Climate Change Summit, came and went like the 28 before it, filled with lofty promises, carefully crafted communiqués, and expenses that could fund an actual recycling plant. The headlines don't change. The applause doesn't change. Even the quotes have a ring of similarity. This year, UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned: "We are in the midst of a climate crisis… humanity and the planet are hurtling towards catastrophe."
One Scan, Two Proofs: SMX Exposes the Fatal Flaws in Recycling and Fire SafetyNEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 19, 2025 / Recycling and fire safety share the same original sin. Both are built on claims that rarely get tested outside of glossy reports and corporate presentations. A green arrow slapped on packaging is supposed to signal recycled content. A chemical datasheet is supposed to guarantee fire resistance. In practice, both are taken at face value, with regulators, insurers, and consumers left in the dark until reality intrudes. And when reality intrudes, it doesn't knock politely. It crashes through with devastation.
"Ghost Plastics" No Longer Haunt Infrastructure With SMX Plastics Passport (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 18, 2025 / The strength of a nation is measured not only by its military or its economy but by the resilience of its infrastructure. Airports, hospitals, data centers, energy grids, defense facilities, and high-rise buildings are the quiet backbone of modern life, and when they fail, the consequences ripple far beyond the site of the accident. A single fire in a data center can cripple financial systems. A faulty panel in a hospital can put patients at risk. A misrepresented cladding in a high-rise can ignite tragedy on a scale that scars a generation. All of that sends a common and urgent message: National security is not just about borders; it's about materials.
SMX Proof Positive With REDWAVE Puts an End to "Problem" Plastics, Successfully Tracks Carbon Black Resins (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 18, 2025 / For years, recycling has been built on promises. Promises that systems would scale, that quality would hold, that recycled materials could replace virgin ones without compromise. The truth has been harder. Sorting has remained clumsy, verification inconsistent, and many plastics have been left out of the loop entirely. That is why the latest milestone from SMX (
NASDAQ:SMX) matters so much. The company has moved past promises and into proof.
SMX Makes Ghost Plastics Visible and Trackable as Flame-Retardant and Carbon Black Plastics Passport Emerges (NASDAQ:SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 18, 2025 / For too long, recycling has worn the label of obligation. Governments issued quotas, companies ticked boxes under duress, and consumers quietly questioned whether any of it mattered. The cycle usually ended in the same place - higher costs, flat recycling rates, and very little trust. SMX (
NASDAQ:SMX), together with BT-Systems' Competence Center REDWAVE, just rewrote that story. What was once compliance theater is now a commercial engine with real horsepower, one that stretches across food, automotive, and electronics markets.
Proof Positive: SMX and REDWAVE Validate Global Plastics Passport Framework for Flame-Retardant and Carbon-Black PlasticsNEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 17, 2025 / Every great industry eventually faces the same showdown. Not over who builds the best technology or who moves the fastest, but over who writes the rules. VHS vs. Betamax. Windows vs. Mac. iOS vs. Android. History is peppered with examples where setting the standard meant owning the market. Few would have predicted that recycling - once dismissed as a regulatory afterthought and a cost of doing business - would be the next arena for such a battle.
SMX Validates Plastics Passport Technology for Carbon Black and Flame Retardant Recycling (NASDAQ: SMX)NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 17, 2025 / Every industry has its white whale, the problem that defies solution year after year. For the recycling world, that problem has always been carbon black plastics. Their dark pigmentation absorbs the infrared and laser signals used by sorting systems, making them virtually invisible on conveyor belts. Billions of tons of this material flow into landfills and incinerators every year because no one could figure out how to separate and certify them at scale. Until now.
