Financial Services / IT Services for Wealth Management Firms
Secure, Exam-Ready IT for Wealth Management Firms
Protect client trust with IT built for wealth managers.
Your clients rely on you for advice, discretion, and performance. As their expectations grow and regulations tighten, your IT has to secure client data, provide real-time access, and keep pace with changing compliance requirements. IT Solutions Technology Partners gives wealth managers managed IT and advisory services that simplify operations, strengthen security, and uphold the standards your clients expect. That pressure is real: the SEC’s 2024 amendments to Regulation S-P now require registered investment advisers and broker-dealers to maintain a written incident response program and notify affected clients after a data breach.
Addressing IT Challenges That Slow You Down.
Modern wealth management firms must navigate cyber threats, complex compliance frameworks, and technology sprawl while maintaining a polished and responsive client experience.

By combining managed IT with SEC-focused governance and advisory, firms gain operational support and regulatory alignment to manage risk with confidence. Available fully managed or co-managed.
High-net-worth client data is a magnet for attackers, and regulators expect proof of protection. We combine managed cybersecurity and vCISO services with SEC exam readiness and GLBA-aligned policies, so you can defend client data and demonstrate compliance from one program.
Phishing simulations and staff security awareness training
Incident response and business continuity planning
SEC exam readiness and documentation support
GLBA-aligned policies and risk assessments
When your custodial platform, CRM, or portfolio tools go down, client service stalls. Our managed IT keeps the systems your firm depends on available and supported, with a responsive service desk and transparent, predictable pricing.
Wealth managers need secure access to client and portfolio data from anywhere, and the cloud is usually how that happens. From cloud readiness through migration and ongoing management, we plan a secure transition across public, private, and hybrid environments so your systems stay available and protected.
Wealth managers are adopting AI to automate administrative tasks, scale portfolio optimization, and deliver personalized client experiences, but success requires more than selecting the right tools. Our AI Governance & Enablement Practice helps you securely adopt, govern, and manage AI across your organization, so you can realize its value while maintaining control over risk, client data, and regulatory requirements.
As your firm grows through new advisors, new clients, and a larger platform, technology and compliance grow more complex. As an ITS client, you get a designated Strategic Advisor and virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO) guidance to align IT with your goals, manage risk, and plan investments ahead of need.
Onboarding advisors, migrating to a new custodial platform, or expanding your technology stack calls for careful project work. Our Professional Services team plans and delivers these projects with a client-first process, so growth happens without disrupting client service.
How We Support the Wealth Management Industry
Secure, compliant, and reliable IT for client-focused firms.
High-Value Client Data Protection
Wealth managers hold exactly the data attackers want most. We reduce that risk with advanced cybersecurity detection and remediation, active threat hunting, secure access controls, and email threat protection, so a single incident does not become a breach of client trust.
Compliance and Exam Readiness
Wealth managers answer to a dense regulatory stack: the SEC and FINRA, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the GLBA Safeguards Rule, Regulation S-P, and the SEC Marketing Rule, along with state securities regulators, with Form ADV and periodic examinations tying it together. We provide SEC exam readiness and documentation support, GLBA-aligned policies and risk assessments, compliance tracking, and automated evidence collection, and we align controls to recognized frameworks like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.
A Secure, Reliable Technology Stack
Wealth management runs on an interconnected stack: custodians such as Charles Schwab, Fidelity, and Pershing; CRMs such as Redtail, Wealthbox, and Salesforce; financial planning tools such as eMoney and MoneyGuidePro; and portfolio management and reporting platforms such as Orion, Black Diamond, Addepar, and Tamarac. We keep that stack available, integrated, and secure through vendor coordination, so remote and in-office workflows run smoothly and your team stays productive.
Secure Access From Anywhere
Advisors and clients expect real-time, secure access wherever they are. We deliver protected mobile and cloud-based access to CRMs, portfolio tools, and custodial platforms, so mobility never comes at the cost of security.
Reliability and Lean-Team Support
Whether you have no internal IT or a small team, we fill the gaps with help desk support, endpoint management, and vendor coordination, backed by real-time monitoring, alerting, and response for the availability your clients count on. A designated Strategic Advisor helps align technology with firm growth, and wealth management firms rely on ITS for reliable, scalable support whether they are onboarding advisors, expanding a platform, or preparing for the next audit.
Compliance with SSAE 18 validates that ITS meets high standards for security, confidentiality, and operational reliability, helping wealth management firms operate within strict regulatory guidelines while keeping client data secure.

Certified Microsoft Solutions Partner for Modern Work

Exceeding expectations every time.
“While we have been an ITS client for many years, we put off transitioning to a cloud environment, hesitant to ‘give up’ our data. However, the growing expense of maintaining our own servers and worry about having adequate back-up and disaster recovery procedures, we finally pulled the trigger. The redundant backups and ITS’s level of service provides us peace of mind.”
