SecurityMetrics Assurance Named Finalist in 2013 American Business Awards(SM)

Online, May 9, 2013 (Newswire.com) - SecurityMetrics Assurance was named a finalist today in the New Product of the Year, Business-to-Business category for The 2013 American Business AwardsSM, and will ultimately be a gold, silver, or bronze award winner. The product was recognized for combining key data protection tools into a proactive, easy-to-implement foundational security package and enabling businesses to meet necessary data security basics.

"That's why we created SecurityMetrics Assurance, the first liability reduction solution to encourage basic risk management strategies and foster payment processing peace of mind."
