NEW YORK, July 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Quickcomm Software Solutions, the leading
global provider of telecom expense management (TEM), Software as a Service
(SaaS) and ASP solutions, today announced the annual renewal of its Safe
Harbor Certification from the U.S. Department of Commerce. Quickcomm is one of
the few global TEM companies to adhere to the safe harbor framework that calls
for "adequate protection" of personal data transferred fromEurope to the U.S.
as required by the European Union's Directive on Data Protection (EU
Directive).
The EU Directive prohibits the transfer of personal data to non-EU nations
that do not meet the European adequacy standard for privacy protection. After
a comprehensive and rigorous analysis of Quickcomm's involvement in the
transfer and receipt of personal data related to TEM, including individual
employee IDs, invoices and other personally identifiable information,
Quickcomm was certified under the Safe Harbor provisions and continues to
provide advanced data encryption technologies and procedures for companies
within the EU transferring data to or via Quickcomm.
Headquartered inNew York, Quickcomm enables its growing base of
enterprise customers inEurope, such as CSC and Cisco, to achieve higher cost
savings in provisioning, billing and inventory departments in a highly secure
software environment. The company practices global data integration and
transfer protocols to ensure that its enterprise customers inEurope are able
to securely automate wireless, landline and data expense management systems.
In order to meet the requirements of the EU Directive, Quickcomm has
established corporate governance structures and internal procedures, including
database encryption, to provide sufficient safeguards of personally
identifiable information. Quickcomm's general privacy policy also follows
stringent security procedures to safeguard the privacy and confidentiality of
personal information.
"We not only educate our customers about protecting company data, we
constantly update every part of our TEM solution to adhere to the highest
levels of security and privacy compliance, especially for our customers in
Europe," said Mark Evans, president and CEO of Quickcomm. "Our team focuses on
understanding every country's legal and security issues, integration
challenges, economic climate and currency dynamics to make sure our TEM
solutions evolve with the global landscape."
