Queen Associates Expands DarkTower Capabilities to Address Identity Security, Blockchain, and Alternative Payment Systems
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (PRWEB) May 04, 2018 -- Queen Associates, an award-winning IT consulting firm, announced the addition of Scott Dueweke as Director of Identity and Secure Transactions, further adding to DarkTower’s capabilities and team of cybersecurity industry veterans.
Leading the Secure Payments and Blockchain Technology divisions from Washington, Dueweke will provide clients guidance and support to address both the opportunities and threats posed by alternative payment systems, blockchain technologies, and cyber identity. Dueweke brings an extensive background, tackling challenging alternative payments and cyber identity challenges for corporations, financial institutions, and government agencies spanning over 40 countries.
“It was essential for DarkTower to address alternative payments and blockchain’s rising traction in the market, and this significant addition complements our innovative cyber and financial crime services,” says Robin Pugh, President of Queen Associates. “Although we work with our clients to implement a secure, vigilant approach regardless of the technology, this growth will allow us to not only accommodate our clients’ spotlight on identity challenges within blockchain technologies, but other rising challenges within payment systems across the board.”
“The opportunity to enable billions of people globally through alternative payment systems, such as mobile payments, cryptocurrencies, and other solutions blockchain provides is immense but fraught with challenges. As I testified before Congress last summer, security and managing the fluid nature of identity is key to realizing the benefits of these new technologies," said Scott Dueweke, Director of Identity and Secure Transactions. “I look forward to helping our clients continue to drive performance, minimize the impact of cyber incidents, and support secure solutions to drive new growth in global markets.“
