Gaming Market
IT GlobalSecure Inc. to debut its Open
Security Technology for Network Gaming at the
Game Developers Conference
Washington, DC – March 5, 2003 -- IT
GlobalSecure, Inc. is pleased to announce the
debut of its SecurePlay™ platform for securing
network games at the Game Developers Conference
in San Jose, CA on 4-8 March 2003.
Its CEO and co-founder, Steven B. Davis will
be speaking on The SecurePlay Platform: An Open
Framework for Secure Network Gaming and
Commerce. The range of network games is
increasing from simple contests and puzzles to
elaborate role-playing and strategy games. At
the same time, the world is moving from low
speed modems connected to PCs to broadband,
interactive TV, and 3G wireless. In fact, the
forecasted revenues for all forms of network
gaming are astounding – exceeding $16 Billion
worldwide by 2006 - and this does not include
revenues from online lotteries, bingo, and other
regulated games (according to Datamonitor and
Forrester Research):
