USIS becomes an Altegrity company, launches new website and look

Falls Church, Va., August 10, 2009 – USIS, a leading provider of security training, screening, litigation support, and information management solutions to government customers, announced today that it is part of the Altegrity (www.altegrity.com) family of companies. The new Altegrity holding company was established in late July. As part of this announcement, USIS is also launching a new brand identity and logo as well as a new look on its website (www.usis.com).

USIS will continue to operate under the same name, simply adding a parent company endorsement line—USIS, an Altegrity company. The new USIS logo is made up of vertical panes, which suggest pages or screens of data that are uncovered and transformed through the company’s work and solutions. The motion of the panes illustrates a focus on bringing customers to a clear decision point. In all, the logo speaks to the power of transformation: USIS transforms data into information, information into insight. Additionally, the company recently named Chief William J. Bratton—Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department—to oversee its Criminal Justice and Law Enforcement Security Solutions.

USIS, an Altegrity company, is at the forefront of homeland and national security, providing critical support to post-conflict nations. Our highly trained and advanced skill law enforcement professionals help host nations create law enforcement institutions that become the foundation of self-operated criminal justice systems. USIS is a sought-after resource for law enforcement mentoring and advising and offers various Criminal Justice Program Solutions (CJPS), anti-terrorism assistance training, and civilian police training.

The new holding company organization announcement will have no impact on the current services customers receive from USIS. Instead, as a member of the Altegrity family of companies, USIS has expanded its capabilities and can now provide a more comprehensive and integrated range of solutions for managing and mitigating business risks.

The new Altegrity holding company structure and brand links the client solutions provided by each of the corporation’s three businesses—USIS, the global government business; HireRight, the company’s international commercial pre-employment and drug-health screening business; and Explore, the industry-leading insurance information services business—to a single corporate identity, with a well-defined value proposition. Built upon a foundation of investigative services, contextualized data mining and analysis, cutting-edge software, and specialized training solutions, Altegrity companies help our clients reduce risk, maximize opportunities, and make better business decisions. Simply stated, Altegrity companies help clients Make Decisions Smarter.®

“We are thrilled about our new brand, our new look, and the realignment in coordination with Altegrity, our new holding company structure,” said William C. Mixon, CEO of USIS. “This realignment better positions us—and the other Altegrity companies—in the markets we serve and will build value by organizing all of the brands in a cohesive business portfolio.”
