ITS Named to CRN's 2026 AI Innovators List

Las Vegas, NV, [NOVEMBER 5, 2026] – Intelligent Technical Solutions (ITS), a national Managed Service Provider (MSP) and Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP), has been named to CRN's inaugural 2026 AI Innovators list, which honors North American IT solution providers demonstrating excellence in delivering AI-focused solutions to customers. The recognition highlights ITS's work in helping businesses adopt artificial intelligence safely through AI governance, risk assessment, and cybersecurity services. 

The inaugural list recognizes companies that use artificial intelligence within their own operations and apply that experience to improve the technology solutions and services they provide to customers. 

How ITS Helps Businesses Adopt AI Securely 

ITS's AI initiatives help organizations adopt artificial intelligence with stronger governance, greater visibility, and oversight of emerging security risks. 

A key component of this work is ITS SecureAI, a managed AI governance platform that helps organizations transition from unmanaged Shadow AI to approved, monitored AI use. The platform uses identity controls, usage policies, and compliance guardrails to help businesses oversee AI activity and reduce the risk of sensitive data exposure. 

ITS has also evaluated AI-related risks for more than 410 client organizations, examining unauthorized AI tools, potential data exposure, and regulatory concerns. These assessments provide business leaders with insights to make informed decisions about AI governance. 

In a recent deployment, ITS helped a midmarket nonprofit transition from unmanaged Shadow AI to a governed AI platform within 30 days. 

The company's AI capabilities also extend to continuous AI-enhanced penetration testing through its dedicated cybersecurity division. This service dynamically re-tests environments as they change and prioritizes verified threat vectors. 

"Organizations face growing pressure to adopt AI while managing security, privacy, and compliance risks," said Tom Andrulis, CEO of Intelligent Technical Solutions. "We built ITS SecureAI to help businesses address those challenges through greater visibility, defined governance policies, and stronger oversight of AI use. CRN's recognition reflects our team's commitment to helping organizations adopt AI responsibly while protecting their operations and sensitive information."
