searchable repository of board materials, while streamlining the process and distribution of board
books.
Christian Blais, BELCO Vice President of Information Technology said, "We have a progressive
board who would like to receive materials electronically, but without any compromise to security.
BoardVantage impressed us with their investment and track record in all aspects of security,
including audited internal processes, third-party process reviews and SAS70 Type II
certification.”
“Also, given the volume of our board materials, BoardVantage’s full text search ability on
encrypted content is a valuable feature for us,” he added.
“If a board portal is to become an effective governance tool it first needs to meet the standards
and best practices of enterprise IT departments," said Joe Ruck, President & CEO,
BoardVantage. "Given the size of our investments in security, it’s gratifying to see our lead
recognized by a prestigious company such as BELCO Holdings. We look forward to providing
