TRG Merges with Inversion6 to Expand Cybersecurity Offerings


Strategic Merger to Address Growing Cybersecurity Needs

On September 25, 2024, TRG, a global leader in managed services, announced its formal merger with Inversion6, its sister company under TruWest Holdings. This merger represents a significant move for TRG, expanding its offerings to include comprehensive cybersecurity services alongside its existing endpoint management capabilities.

Sean Kennedy, TRG’s CEO, emphasized the strategic importance of this move, stating, “In talking with many of our customers, cybersecurity is the main thing that keeps them up at night. While we’ve always worked closely with Inversion6, we wanted to bring them on in a more official capacity to address this need.” This merger enables TRG to leverage Inversion6’s established track record in enterprise cybersecurity, addressing increasing market demand for a unified service approach that combines endpoint management with robust cybersecurity measures.

Enhanced Offerings for TRG Clients

With the merger, TRG clients will gain access to an expanded suite of cybersecurity services. Inversion6 will continue to operate under its own name and brand identity but with a new focus on augmenting TRG’s mobility clients’ cybersecurity needs. One of the key benefits of this integration is the immediate availability of Inversion6’s 24x7x365 Security Operations Center (SOC) and its team of experienced fractional Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs).

For TRG, this merger is about offering more to their clients. “The merger with Inversion6 is designed to offer TRG’s existing clients an expanded portfolio of services that directly enhance their endpoint management with integrated cybersecurity solutions,” Kennedy explained. This means that companies relying on TRG for endpoint management can now better secure their technology landscape, thanks to Inversion6’s expertise.

Projected Growth and New Offerings

TRG expects the merger to contribute significantly to its growth, with projections of 20% organic growth within its current customer base. While specific details were not shared, Kennedy highlighted that cybersecurity will play a key role in driving this growth, particularly through expanded offerings tailored to the evolving needs of their clients.

In addition to growth, the merger signals the rollout of new cybersecurity products. Kennedy revealed a “dedicated mobile security product” that secures every customer’s endpoint, from laptops to mobile devices. This product is poised to be a game-changer in the industry, further solidifying TRG’s leadership in enterprise technology solutions.

Leveraging Inversion6’s Expertise and Disruptive Technologies

Inversion6 has long been recognized for bringing cutting-edge technologies to its clients, and this merger ensures that TRG clients will benefit from the same level of innovation. Kennedy hinted at an upcoming product launch that will address key pain points in enterprise security. “We want to make sure that we’re bringing our customers the technology that will solve their pain points,” he stated, underscoring the commitment to offering disruptive technologies that meet real-world challenges.

Global Expansion and Operational Integration

The merger will also accelerate TRG’s global expansion, particularly in cybersecurity. While Kennedy could not provide specific details at the time, he mentioned that TRG has immediate plans to make strategic hires overseas to globalize its cybersecurity offering. These strategic moves will enhance TRG’s ability to support clients across different regions, ensuring a more comprehensive and localized approach to cybersecurity.

Operationally, TRG is implementing systems and processes to ensure seamless integration between its endpoint management and cybersecurity services. By combining these services, TRG is positioning itself as a holistic managed service provider that offers both hardware and software lifecycle management while also securing every stage of the process.

Differentiating in a Competitive Marketplace

As the cybersecurity market continues to grow, TRG is focusing on what sets it apart from other managed service providers. According to Kennedy, “Most competitors in our space are doubling down on either hardware or software—and not necessarily looking at the full lifecycle of their devices and what customers need at each stage. We view this merger as a way to more completely service our customers with comprehensive offerings.” This holistic approach, which takes into account both the hardware and software needs of their clients, differentiates TRG from others in the industry.

Looking Ahead: Cybersecurity as a Core Strategy

Looking to the future, TRG sees cybersecurity as an integral part of its strategy as it continues to lead in the enterprise technology space. “Cybersecurity will be integral to our strategy as we look to lead the future of enterprise technology. Cybersecurity is always going to be important given that cyber threats will always be around,” Kennedy noted.

This forward-thinking approach highlights TRG’s commitment to staying ahead of emerging threats while ensuring its clients’ technology environments are efficient and secure. With the formal merger of Inversion6 into its operations, TRG is well-positioned to offer one of the most comprehensive service portfolios in the industry, addressing the full spectrum of enterprise technology needs.
