Vertali and MainTegrity announce strategic cyber security partnership

Vertali has entered into a strategic partnership with Calgary-based cyber security provider MainTegrity Inc.

“This partnership is focused on providing the rock-solid mainframe security that major organizations require today, to protect themselves against the most insidious forms of malicious attack,” says Al Saurette, President of MainTegrity. “This new relationship means we can not only provide the kind of continuous support that our customers expect, but can incorporate even more defenses for the emerging cyber threats that Vertali security specialists discover and remediate every day.”

MainTegrity supplies the revolutionary cyber security software FIM+ to major financial services, air travel and government clients who require the provision of uninterrupted IT services for millions of customers. Specifically, FIM+ enables unparalleled intrusion detection together with response and recovery capabilities to combat ransomware and fight off the attacks that other mainframe security tools often miss.

Vertali has a long and distinctive pedigree in delivering premier IBM mainframe and security services to global organizations. Working together, MainTegrity and Vertali provide a unique business and technical offer in delivering software and IT support services including security coverage to the world’s most demanding clients in multiple time zones, 24/7.

“Mainframes remain the backbone of so many sectors, including the payment card industry, and are typically the final authority on critical data elements like bank balances, credit card processing and ATM transactions,” says Mark Wilson, Technical Director at Vertali. “Few if any other providers have as much experience and hands-on expertise as Vertali in these and the many other areas related to mainframe infrastructure, software and security. Trained support staff have been in short supply for years due to under investment and personnel reductions. We can provide the expertise required, augmenting MainTegrity and helping to enable uninterrupted and secure operations of the digital hubs that bind networks together.”

MainTegrity’s Al Saurette adds, “With expert mainframe teams available globally, we can jointly deliver immediate, focused and highly informed support for customers in virtually every location. Combining the MainTegrity development site in the USA with Vertali’s processing center in England means significant new opportunities to eliminate geographical and technological risk.”
