Paladin Technologies has acquired Commercial Security Integration (CSI), the company announced.

“Aligning with CSI has immediately enhanced the depth of our U.S.security division,” said Ted Reid, CEO of Paladin Technologies. “CSI held Paladin’s philosophies of teamwork and a client-focused vision which made them a perfect team to bring into our group of companies. We are excited that with CSI’s strategic alliances, our clients will benefit from the highest quality solutions. Paladin Technologies remains committed to expanding our reach across North America to make lasting impact on our industry.”

CSI joins Paladin with a customer base including defense contractors, municipalities (city, county and state), education institutions, private corporations and federal entities.

“As part of our review to determine what is the best next step for CSI, our key considerations were ensuring our people could continue to develop and our clients would continue to receive solid, local service along with the benefit of an entrepreneurial organization with proven industry processes,” said CSI President Kirk Davidson.

All employees will be joining the Paladin Technologies Group of companies through this transaction.

“Navigating through COVID-19 has brought our teams together, closer than ever,” said Mick Barber, managing director of U.S. operations for Paladin. “We’ve taken the time to consciously evaluate our operating practices and CSI institutes specific processes that will enhance our team’s capabilities to meet the needs of our enterprise client base. This collaboration of professionals will undoubtedly support our aggressive endeavor for market reach.”

Effective immediately, CSI will transition its operating practices to doing business as Paladin Technologies. CSI will retain all existing phone numbers as the team integrates with the Paladin Technologies group of companies.
