Integrity Technology Systems (Integrity) is a consulting firm that offers a variety of information security, IT risk management and compliance services in the financial services, technology and manufacturing industries. These services include security penetration testing, disaster recovery, audit and control review, audit liaison, and policy and security architecture reviews.

Dave Nelson, President of Integrity, sought to improve service offerings for his clients and expand into new markets. He wanted to provide a Software-as-a-Service model to his clients that would collect their event logs and analyze it in a remote environment so that the clients wouldn’t have to hire and retain specialized individuals. By being the Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) for their clients, Integrity would be the security expert for those clients who didn’t have the resources to do it themselves.
