The Latest in IT Security

By Malathi Nayak SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) – Zynga Inc has appointed Regina Dugan, a vice president of engineering at Google, to its board, the online gaming company said on Wednesday. Dugan, 51, also leads the advanced technology and projects group at Google that works on new inventions like a tablet that uses 3D motion and depth sensing capabilities. In a blog post, Zynga Chief Executive Officer Don Mattrick said that Dugan’s expertise would help Zynga offer “next generation entertainment experiences that span categories, platforms and devices.” Zynga has set in motion a business revival plan by overhauling top management, trimming staff and introducing titles that can be played on smartphones and tablets. Dugan becomes the second female director on Zynga’s board alongside former Yahoo executive Ellen Siminoff.
