(NASDAQ: INTX), a leading provider of consumer and corporate identity theft risk management services that has protected more than 33 million consumers, today announced that it once again earned a spot in this year's InformationWeek 500 for the second consecutive year, an annual listing of the nation's most innovative users of business technology.

"For 23 years, the InformationWeek 500 has chronicled and honored the most innovative users of business technology," said InformationWeek Editor In Chief Rob Preston. "In this day and age, however, being innovative isn't enough. Companies and their IT organizations need to innovate faster than ever before to stay a step or two ahead of their customers, partners, and competitors. This year's ranking placed special emphasis on those high-octane business technology innovators."
InformationWeek identifies and honors the nation's most innovative users of information technology with its annual 500 listing and also tracks the technology, strategies, investments, and administrative practices of America's best-known companies.
