   "The RSA Conference is a premier opportunity for Innovative Card
Technologies to showcase our ICT DisplayCard, the most commercially
advanced, one-time passcode ISO-compliant DisplayCard in the world.
This year we are especially pleased that our strategic partners will
feature this remarkable card as well," said Steven R. Delcarson,

position is derived from our strong technical certification
performance, including receipt of both the UL and CE consumer
protection marks for distribution in the United States and Europe
respectively. We are extremely pleased to be receiving positive
end-user feedback from our customers, and we are excited to report
that the number of deployments will grow to seven on the banking side
and four on the enterprise side in the second quarter."
