— BACKGROUND

A scientist who refused to trust the box-checkers.

Ian built his early career in biomedical research, where his work led to publications in Nature and Cell. The same precision that shaped that research now shapes how he runs Integritrade. After a decade in electronics repair, data recovery, and secure data destruction, he watched too many recycling programs cut corners, lose chain of custody, and pass risk back to their clients. He founded Integritrade in 2023 to do the opposite.

— TRACK RECORD

Five certifications. Two hundred audits.Zero shortcuts.

Under Ian’s leadership, Integritrade achieved R2v3, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and ISO 27001 certifications inside its first operating year. Within six months of opening to commercial clients, the company had earned recurring work from Fortune 500 enterprises and federal organizations relationships built on the simple promise that Ian personally reviews every project before sign-off.

— BEYOND THE CONTRACT

Refurbished devices that end up in classrooms not landfills.

Ian partners with nonprofits to route refurbished electronics to students and families who would not otherwise have access to technology. The same downstream chain that protects your data also extends the useful life of devices that still have years of value left in them.

— BACKGROUND

An engineer who built systems your auditors already trust.

Before joining Integritrade, Masood spent over a decade as a security engineer inside Fortune 500 enterprise environments the same operational standards your CISO, your internal audit team, and your third-party risk reviewers use as their baseline. He has worked across large-scale infrastructure, data governance frameworks, and the cybersecurity protocols that global organizations expect when sensitive data is in motion.

— OPERATIONAL DISCIPLINE

The person who designs the controls behind every pickup.

As COO, Masood owns the operational side of Integritrade chain-of-custody design, sanitization workflows, audit-trail architecture, and the controls that translate certifications into day-to-day execution. His credentials span the spectrum compliance teams care about: (ISC)² CC, CompTIA Security+, (ISC)² GRC, API Security, and advanced working knowledge of CISSP domains. The result is an ITAD operation that holds up to scrutiny from the same security frameworks your organization is already governed by.

— APPROACH

Security-first, on every shipment, every time.

Masood’s discipline shows up in the details: serialized inventory before assets leave your dock, NIST-aligned sanitization methods chosen based on data sensitivity, downstream verification documented to the final processor. The work is meticulous on purpose because in regulated environments, “mostly secure” is the same as “not secure.”
