(PresseBox) - SECUDE is pleased to announce the successful completion of sale of its enterprise-level application security division to SAP effective from 1st February 2011. SECUDE will now re-align its global resources to develop and promote its IT data protection suite, FinallySecure.
SECUDE's Chairman, Dr. Heiner Kromer, states that the sale of the SAP application security business allows SECUDE to focus exclusively on data protection.
