Eugene Kaspersky will today be inducted into the Infosecurity Europe 2010 Hall of Fame in recognition of his contribution to the advancement of the IT security industry during more than twenty years in the business. It's not the only award he has received, as the SC Awards Europe 2010 also voted him the CEO of the Year.

The Kaspersky Lab co-founder and CEO was presented with his award to applause from hundreds of IT security professionals gathered at the ceremony at the Wyndham Grand London in Chelsea Harbour. Commenting on the award, Eugene Kaspersky says "I am truly honoured to have the hard work and significant progress made by our team around the world recognised here in London. Kaspersky Lab's continued success is built on hard work and determination to make the world a more secure place. It is my privilege to lead them".

It has certainly been something of a bounce back since the security vendor fell victim to an alleged SQL Injection attack on the Kaspersky website last year.
