Converus, in supporting the people of Ukraine, has suspended any future business with Russia or Belarus.
LEHI, Utah – April 7, 2022 – Converus joins other businesses and countries worldwide in condemning in the strongest possible terms the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces and the resulting loss of life. The lie detection technology company says it stands with the people of Ukraine and the global community in calling for an immediate end to this war and a swift return to peace.
As such, Converus has restricted Russia and Belarus, as well as any authorized distributors and service providers, from selling or having access to its EyeDetect lie detection technology.
