"At PSI, we're responding with layered intelligence, proactive detection, and deep investigative capabilities."

This launch comes at a time when the testing industry is facing unprecedented risks. As technology advances, so do the methods used to undermine test security. In 2024, deepfake attempts were detected every five minutes, according to PSI partner Entrust. Digital document forgeries also surged, rising 244% from 2023 to become the leading method of fraud.i With new threats emerging at speed and scale, the tools to stop them must move even faster. That's why PSI is introducing TSaaS.

"The launch of Test Security as a Service (TSaaS) reflects PSI's continued commitment to innovation and leadership in secure testing," says Janet Garcia, CEO at PSI. "We're investing in advanced technologies to serve a mission that goes beyond supporting individual clients to protecting the integrity of assessment as a whole.

"With TSaaS, we're making our security expertise and innovations available to the wider market, regardless of your existing relationship with PSI. Whether you need comprehensive support or a specific solution, you can now access the capabilities trusted by global leaders in credentialing."

TSaaS gives testing organizations the ability to select only the services they need or opt for a comprehensive end-to-end security solution. Built on decades of operational experience and a team of over 70 security experts, TSaaS spans:

  • Web and dark web crawling for content leaks

  • Data forensics and AI-powered anomaly detection

  • Targeted investigations and audits

  • Risk assessment and incident response support

  • Advanced AI tools such as Deepfake Detection

Wallace Dalrymple, Chief Security Officer at PSI and ETS, adds, "The threat landscape for test security is evolving fast, driven by advances in generative AI, the emergence of deepfake technologies, and increasingly organized efforts to subvert test security systems. Traditional measures alone are no longer sufficient.

"At PSI, we're responding with layered intelligence, proactive detection, and deep investigative capabilities. Giving testing organizations the confidence and tools they need to protect the integrity of their programs."

Through its partnership with ETS, PSI is amplifying its impact with greater investment capacity, deeper innovation, and unmatched operational scale. Together, ETS and PSI are united by a shared commitment to staying ahead of an increasingly complex and technology-driven threat landscape. This strategic alignment enables ongoing investment in the tools, intelligence, and infrastructure needed to deliver agile, scalable security solutions that empower testing programs of all sizes to protect the integrity of their assessments with confidence.
