Helios Data Systems Promotes Craig Tant

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Helios Data Systems Inc. has announced the promotion of Craig Tant to its executive leadership team today.

Tant will serve as chief operations officer.

"We have worked hard researching the best solutions for 2257 management over the past year and we’re hopeful the Justice Department would see correctly that one of the best ways to ensure constant protection for studios, website owners, affiliates, and equally important — the models, is to allow a neutral entity to maintain the data,” Tant said. “The immediate benefit to the industry is that our company is prepared to commit the extensive full-time support necessary to provide a managed compliance solution at a cost and quality most sites cannot do alone.”
