Couldn't help but do a little research for the weekend. Great company, with great executive experience and good demand/future demand for their product. Lets hope the market wakes up to this.
The company approved a name change on April 29, 2016 to IP Risk Control. Wonder if we will get an update on this as they are awaiting SEC and FINRA approval. Said that the name will better suite what the company sets out to do.
