Global Information Technology Awards Foundation Pays Tribute to Individuals and Organizations that Use Information Technology to Benefit Society
ATLANTA — May 20, 2008 — Digital Resolve, a leading provider of online authentication and fraud detection solutions, has been recognized as a Laureate by the Computerworld Honors Program. Nominated by Morgan Stanley in the category of Business and Related Services, Digital Resolve and other Honorees will be commemorated during the 20th Annual Laureates Medal Ceremony & Gala Awards Evening on June 2, 2008 at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington, D.C. For two decades, Computerworld Honors has acknowledged those individuals and organizations that have used information technology to benefit society .
“To have Digital Resolve’s technology recognized by the Computerworld Honors Program further validates the business value we bring to the marketplace,” said Dennis Maicon, Executive Vice President, Financial Services Solutions of Digital Resolve. “We are proud to play a vital role in helping organizations keep financial assets and personal identities secure in a world where online fraud has unfortunately become a reality.”
The Computerworld Honors Program unites Chairmen and CEOs of the world’s foremost information technology companies to recognize the most outstanding user achievements in technology each year. The technology achievements honored by this program are preserved and protected in national archives, and in over 350 universities, museums, and research institutions throughout the world.
Each year, members of the Chairmen's Committee, a group of 100 Chairman/CEOs of global technology companies, nominates individuals and organizations around the world whose visionary applications of information technology promotes positive social and economic progress.
To demonstrate the business and societal contributions of its technology, Digital Resolve completed an implementation study for the Computerworld Honors Program. The study illustrated how the company’s online authentication and fraud detection solution, Fraud Analyst, helped Lockheed Georgia Employees Community Credit Union (LGECCU) with its goals to implement a multi-factor authentication solution that would protect online users of Internet banking services. Furthermore, the case study reveals how LGECCU was able to cost-effectively deploy the technology without negatively impacting customer service or the way in which customers accessed and managed their online accounts .
Independent of the Laureate recognition, the Computerworld Honors Program also annually presents its Leadership Awards, each designed to honor the extraordinary achievements of selected individuals whose positive contributions to the IT revolution have left an indelible mark on the world.
“Each year, the Computerworld Honors Program seeks to recognize organizations, from a variety of sectors, for their ongoing efforts to utilize technology in order to benefit society,” said Ron Milton, Chairman of the Board of Trustees for the Computerworld Information Technology Awards Foundation and Executive Vice President of Computerworld. “We are proud to provide a platform to publicly acknowledge these contributions.”
