The prestigious global awards recognize security and information technology organizations with advanced, ground-breaking products and services that are helping to raise the bar for others in the technology and security industries.

Ease of deployment and use are vital to busy practices, and HIPAA Security Fast Track implements in minutes and requires minimal training.

"We developed HIPAA Security Fast Track to bring enterprise-grade security and managed services to a large, overlooked segment of the healthcare industry that previously could not tap into those benefits easily or cost-effectively," said Scott Fluegge, president and general manager of JDL Technologies. "We're pleased to have our efforts recognized as part of the 2016 Global Excellence Awards in information security."

Award winners will be announced at the 12th annual awards event in San Francisco on February 29, 2016.
