Two Indiana-based information technology (IT) companies expanding into the Indianapolis market announced a strategic alignment to help financial organizations better defend their data.

Matrix Integration, LLC (Matrix), which specializes in infrastructure, and Infotex, which specializes in IT risk management for financial services, are joining staff and expertise to create a holistic approach to help the financial industry defend against ever-evolving cyber threats.

“Working together, we can provide financial institutions with an end-to-end security solution,” said Dan Hadaway, managing partner of Infotex. “Matrix will design and implement, and Infotex will test and monitor.  This addresses segregation in a manner that ensures the financial institution wins with two providers that can work well together.”

Nathan Stallings, president of Matrix, is looking forward to creating robust and effective custom solutions for banks.

“The sophistication of data crimes – particularly for financial institutions – are advancing at a rapid pace,” said Stallings. “Infotex has been working in the banking industry for years. Together with our advanced enterprise-level infrastructure knowledge and Infotex’s experience monitoring and rescuing compromised banking technology systems, we can create a secure IT environment that can detect even the most hard-to-discover threats and shut them down much more quickly.”

Matrix, a $50 million-annual revenue private company helps more than 1,000 clients in over a dozen industries with a wide range of services, including:

• Design, Implement and Manage IT Infrastructures
• Wired and Wireless Network Infrastructure
• Data Center Infrastructure
• Network Infrastructure Security
• End Point Security

Infotex, a preferred service provider of the Indiana Bankers’ Association, has helped hundreds of financial institutions shore up their security and better monitor their risks with services such as:

• Managed Security Services (24 x 7 x 365 monitoring)
• Managed Network Monitoring (IPS/IDS/Change Detection)
• Managed Event log management (SIEM)
• IT Audits, Social Engineering, and Assessments
• IT Governance
• Policies and Procedures
• Enterprise Risk Management
• Digital Forensics

Matrix and Infotex will begin working together immediately. For more information or to speak with someone about how to work with the newly-formed strategic alliance, visit www.matrixintegration.com or call 317-288-9349.
