PRINCETON JUNCTION, N.J., Nov. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Secure Technology Alliance announced its 2020 Honor Roll members today, recognizing the top individual and member company contributors to Alliance activities and projects this year.

The Secure Technology Alliance’s 2020 Honor Roll recognizes individual members and top contributors in the Alliance industry councils – Access Control, Identity, Payments, and Transportation – whose contributions in the past year assisted the Alliance in fulfilling its mission.

The contributions made by the member-driven councils included publishing education and outreach material for different markets, hosting webinars and workshops, developing industry positions on key government and private initiatives, and establishing relationships with related industry groups. The results of the councils’ work are viewed as authoritative educational material for both the U.S. and international secure technology markets and help drive secure technology implementations in the U.S.
