CALGARY, Alberta, Canada, Dec. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Securac Corp. ("Securac") (OTC:SECU) is proud to announce it has been positioned in the "Niche" quadrant, in a leading edge research report published October 24, 2005, by Gartner Inc. The comprehensive report entitled, Magic Quadrant for Financial Compliance Process Management Software (FCPM) 2005, should be used to assess vendors on the products they offer for the management and operational support of compliance with corporate governance regulations and standards*. The research report concluded with 18 software vendors being scored for the FCPM Magic Quadrant; with Securac making the quadrant along with other world class, blue chip solution providers. According to Gartner, Niche Players focus on a particular segment of the client base, as defined by characteristics such as size, vertical or project complexity. Their ability to outperform or innovate may be impacted by this narrow focus. "Securac is honored to be selected as one of 18 global vendors, who offer a solution that automates the reporting, workflow and documentation associated with internal controls for the management and operational support of compliance with corporate governance regulations and standards," stated Securac Chief Executive Officer, Terry Allen. "We possess a novel business model that addresses the FCPM market overall. Securac is focused on offering continual product improvements, enhanced market and sales support while conservatively expanding into more geographies and verticals. This emerging market is embracing our integrated ERM platform as the standard for continuous compliance and transparency."
