Pearl Technology

"We enlisted the help of Pearl Technology for its security expertise over a year ago. During the security audit and assessment, Pearl's certified security experts completely reviewed our technology environment, applications and processes to determine current security posture in each of our five office locations throughout downstate Illinois. Using a multi-layered approach which encompassed all aspects of security, the Pearl Technology team identified a number of areas in which we were vulnerable, and by following its recommendations we were able to significantly mitigate our information technology risk. We were impressed not only by the fact that the Pearl team carried out the security audit in a very thorough and professional manner, but also that in doing so its personnel were sensitive to our ongoing business concerns. Because of its expertise and superior customer service, we continue to rely on Pearl Technology to drive our IT strategy."
