"Mike's passion for this business has led us to where we are now. It's certainly a bittersweet time, but we wish Mike all the success as he embarks on a new journey," Litz said.

"Marc has been with DTiQ just as long as I have and is very well prepared for this role. He knows each of you, our customers, our lenders, our shareholders, and that will serve all of you," Mike Coffey said.

Litz said that during the transition, DTiQ would remain committed to its employees and customers, and building products that enhance client security and protection. Those values have been the company's cornerstone and will continue moving forward.

"I'm proud to be leading such a strong company with an experienced and dedicated team. We are committed to our clients, partners, and employees and will continue to provide the highest standards of service, support and technology," Litz said.
