May 19, 2014

VASCO Data Security International, Inc. (VDSI) CEO T. Kendall Hunt says the company intends to continue its historical strategy of technology tuck-in acquisitions. Hunt says he prefers smaller tuck-ins to larger acquisitions, which can be expensive and risky.

“We are interested in finding more products for our existing customers, and our enterprise and application security channel,” Hunt says. “We are always looking for new products to enhance the security of our existing customers, and we are looking for technology that will have appeal to our prospects and our competitors’ customers.”
