Steven Sprague, president of Wave Systems, spoke to conference attendees and Giga Group analysts Monday December 7, 1998. His product demonstration and speech addressed the issues of secure e-commerce and content distribution and the need for standards-based "trusted-client" solutions that enable broad-based content delivery by placing secure transaction engines at the desktop. "I am very encouraged to see that IT professionals, industry leaders, and Giga analysts understand the inherent value and promise in the EMBASSY trusted-client technology by honoring us with the Most Innovative Product award in the desktop category," said Steven Sprague, Wave Systems President.
