West Chester, OH – E Tech Group, a leader in providing high-quality automation, control, and engineering services for industrial clients and Gold Certified Rockwell Automation Partner, announced today that they completed and earned the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) status.
CISSP certification is a globally accepted standard, that validates IT security professionals’ skills and experience in handling and executing security plans.

E Tech Group provides cybersecurity services with expertise in both IT and OT industrial control systems (ICS).

CISSP professionals have proven they are able to effectively design, implement, and manage a best-in-class cybersecurity program. To earn this certification, a professional must possess five or more years of work experience, pass a written exam, maintain good standing within the cybersecurity industry, hold membership with ISC2, and commit to adhering to the ISC2 Code of Ethics and privacy policy.
“Earning this certification brings a new level of expertise and authority to showcase our cybersecurity and networking capabilities,” said Kevin Romer, Solutions Architect at E Tech Group. “We see a high demand for cybersecurity professionals that understand the OT side and are excited to keep growing this aspect of our business.”
