Hitachi ID Systems Boosts Their European Presence

A New Expansion Supports Increasing Demand

CALGARY, June 11, 2012 /CNW/ - Hitachi ID Systems, a leading provider and identity and access management (IAM) solutions, has recently expanded their European office in the Netherlands. "The European market clearly demonstrates a strong interest in managing user credentials and entitlements, especially for privileged access," affirms Gideon Shoham, CEO. "Our increased European market revenues have warranted an expansion to provide more face time and on-site support for our clients."

To strengthen their presence in Europe, Hitachi ID has also increased participation in European trade shows and conferences. Early this year, Hitachi ID Systems has sponsored the Gartner Identity and Access Management Summit in London, as well as the European Identity Conference in Munich. "Our future initiatives will aim at achieving a balance between North America and Europe for the remainder of 2012," asserts Shoham.

"Face time with new and existing clients is of utmost importance," affirms Colin Duffy, the Director of European Sales. "As with any industry, clients base their decisions on demonstrable ROI, evident added value and business relationships." Hitachi ID is currently recruiting additional sales and technical staff for its European operations, as well as expanding their channel network.

Today, Hitachi ID has announced the first of a series of upcoming European webinars. On Wednesday, June 13 at 11:00AM Europe Summer Time (Amsterdam, GMT+02:00), Duffy will discuss how to address compliance and security challenges with Hitachi ID's Privileged Access Manager. The company has recently revealed that this webinar has already reached a record registration rate.
