SAN FRANCISCO -- SVC Financial Services, Inc.

Mr. Haigh was invited to the summit as part of a delegation from the Distributed Industry Computing Association, of which SVC is a member.

"The FBI has made its anti-child-pornography effort a top priority, and it has asked a few of the more advanced digital rights management companies for insights into watermarking and other areas where technology is headed developmentally and how this will create more challenges for enforcing anti-child-pornography," said Mr. Haigh. "FBI officials have specifically asked us to explore ways we might work with them to increase the Bureau's effectiveness and efficiency as the technology advances. We are extremely proud to be invited to the FBI summit, and we are pleased to be a part of this critical mission in the fight against child pornography."
