Alex Woda and Associates of Toronto is an information risk management consulting firm specializing in enterprise architecture development, information technology security and auditing services and risk management methodologies.

The acquisition will expand Irvine, Calif.-based Dyntek's team of security experts, international exposure and service capabilities, said James Hansen, Dyntek's senior vice president of security services.

Alex Woda and Associates has a staff of information system auditors and security specialists who help organizations manage risk, assess security strategies, develop policies and standards, implement security architectures and manage corporate and security compliance programs.
