ROCKY HILL, Conn., April 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- IGX Global, a leading provider of security and network infrastructure solutions today announced the company has adopted a new brand identity.

IGX Global focuses on meeting business challenges from early assessment and project design to overall support and managed services.

Additionally, the company also announced the appointment of Michael Giuffrida as President. Giuffrida, 43, joined IGX Global after 17 years as chief executive officer at Foresite, an IT solutions firm providing premium information technology solutions to help businesses increase their profitability, efficiency and effectiveness.

The decision to adopt the IGX Global moniker and the appointment of Giuffrida were both driven by the recent acquisition of IGX Corp. by The Moneo Group, a provider of information security services, network solutions and mission critical infrastructure products.

"Our primary goal in driving the rebrand of IGX Global was to show current and potential clients that IGX is truly a global one-stop shop for all their network infrastructure and security needs," said Tom Duffy, COO of The Moneo Group, and the former CEO of IGX Corp.

IGX Global provides its global clients with experienced international logistics support. Since 2005, IGX Global has successfully serviced clients in over 25 countries leveraging its strong international partnerships.

Duffy continued, "Michael has spent the past 20 years dedicated to providing custom-tailored and scalable technology solutions for his clients. His experience and knowledge of our industry is unmatched, making him unquestionably the right leader for IGX Global."

"I could not be more excited to join IGX Global at this pivotal time in the company's history," said Giuffrida. "Our primary goal is to identify and eradicate our customers' most pressing technology obstacles. By systematically identifying and eliminating their pain points, we build long-term and successful relationships with our global client base, allowing them to focus on their business, not their technology challenges."

Before launching Foresite, Giuffrida was responsible for technology planning and implementation at companies such as Aetna Life and Casualty, Farmington Management, Inc. and Connecticut Surety Group. He earned a B.S. in business management and an executive MBA with honors from the University of Connecticut at Storrs.

In conjunction with the name change, IGX Global has also adopted new messaging, a new logo, a new color scheme and new website, providing a more modern look and feel to match the enhanced global focus.
