Calgary, AB – September 13, 2005 – M-Tech Information Technology (Company Profile, Past Stories, Case Studies), Inc., a leading provider of identity management (IdM) solutions, and CRT Group, a leading IdM solutions integrator, will collaborate in offering IdM solutions to improve regulatory compliance and reduce user and access administration costs.

CRT Group delivers security solutions to improve compliance, identity management, administration and access security as well as vulnerability assessment for global organizations.

Offering best-of-breed security solutions, CRT Group has partnered with M-Tech to extend the functionality and target integrations of its existing identity management services offering. In particular, M-Tech’s Suite will enhance CRT Group’s Sarbanes-Oxley compliance practice and enable CRT Group to extend MIIS 2003 (Microsoft Identity Integration Server) implementations to new types of target systems.

CRT Group’s key motivation for selecting M-Tech as an identity management partner was M-Tech’s ability to provide rapid deployment and ROI while providing a robust and scalable technology. Low total cost of ownership (TCO) is a critical requirement to CRT Group.

“M-Tech’s suite is a vital addition to our wide array of solutions. This product suite will strengthen our presence in the identity management professional services market. Our robust security solutions use industry-leading technologies to cut costs, reduce vulnerabilities and maximize regulatory compliance,” said Ashraf Motiwala, CRT Group’s Director of Identity Management.
