SanDisk Corporation announced the acquisition of MDRM, a privately-held Israeli company that is focused on developing end-to-end solutions for distributing secure content through flash memory cards. With offices in Israel and Sunnyvale, MDRM was founded in 2002 by CEO Dan Harkabi and CTO Gidi Elazar, both pioneers in developing the USB flash drive category, a portable device that has large memory capacities and attaches to the USB port of a personal computer. MDRM has worked closely with SanDisk and has adapted the SanDisk flash controller to create a version of SanDisk's Cruzer USB flash drive that is capable of delivering valuable content in a protected and secure environment.
