Introducing Tech20: One Consortium, Unified Power

Tech20 is the evolution of our technology services, merging NetVision20 and CyberVision20 into a single, streamlined consortium. This integration simplifies service delivery, improves pricing clarity, and expands access to a broader range of technology and cybersecurity offerings under one umbrella.

Why the Change?

Combining NetVision20 and CyberVision20 into Tech20 addresses long-standing challenges:

  • Simplified Product Placement: Many solutions—like InfosecIQ, Linewize, Securly, and Barracuda—serve multiple purposes, making it hard to place them in just one membership.

  • One Membership, No More Choosing: Clients no longer need to choose between two consortia.

  • Streamlined Procurement: Reduces confusion on where and how to purchase products and services.

  • Unified Pricing: Aligns varying pricing models into one consistent structure.

  • Expanded Access: Offers our premier Cybersecurity Program—formerly exclusive to CyberVision20—to all Tech20 members.

Some services previously bundled into memberships are now purchase-only to ensure flexibility and sustainability.
