MONTRÉAL, Jan. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — To celebrate Data Privacy Day, Genetec Inc. (“Genetec”), a leading technology provider of unified security, public safety, operations, and business intelligence solutions, shares practical guidance on how organizations can secure their operations in a way that respects everyone’s privacy.
