Third Annual List Honors Leading MSSPs, MDR Service Providers & Cybersecurity Companies

LINCOLN, NE, September 19, 2019 – MSSP Alert, published by After Nines Inc., has named Infogressive to the 2019 Top 200 MSSPs list for the third time. The list and research identify and honor the top 200 managed security services providers (MSSPs) that specialize in comprehensive, outsourced cybersecurity services.

Previous editions of the annual list honored 100 MSSPs. This year’s edition, at twice the size, reflects MSSP Alert’s rapidly growing readership and the world’s growing consumption of managed security services. The Top 200 MSSP rankings are based on MSSP Alert’s 2019 readership survey combined with aggregated third-party research. MSSPs featured throughout the list and research proactively monitor, manage and mitigate cyber threats for businesses, government agencies, educational institutions and nonprofit organizations of all sizes.

"We are extremely honored to be recognized as #54 in the top 200 MSSPs in the world," said Justin Kallhoff, CEO of Infogressive. "We are in company of some giant global competitors with vast resources, so we are very proud. We are only getting started... here we come single digits!"

Infogressive is up 7 spots this year, landing at #54 alongside other MSSP peers in the market. 

“Infogressive has always been a real educator in the space” said Joe Panettieri, Co-Founder and Content Czar of MSSP Alert and ChannelE2E, in the Top 200 announcement webcast. Panettieri thanked Infogressive CEO, Justin Kallhoff, for his thought leadership and involvement with MSSP Alert over the years. 

MSSP Alert: Top 200 MSSPs 2019 – Research Highlights

The MSSP Alert readership survey revealed several major trends in the managed security services provider market. Chief among them:

• The Top 5 business drivers for managed security services are talent shortages; regulatory compliance needs; the availability of cloud services; ransomware attacks; and SMB customers demanding security guidance from partners.
• 69% of MSSPs now run full-blown security operations centers (SOCs) in-house, with 19% leveraging hybrid models, 8% completely outsourcing SOC services and 4% still formulating strategies.
• The Top 10 cybersecurity vendors assisting MSSPs, in order of reader preference, are Fortinet, AT&T Cybersecurity, Cisco Systems, BlackBerry Cylance, Palo Alto Networks, Microsoft, SonicWall, Carbon Black, Tenable and Webroot (a Carbonite company).
• Although the overall MSSP market enjoys double-digit percentage growth rates, many of the Top 200 MSSPs have single-digit growth rates because they are busy investing in next-generation services – including managed detection and response (MDR), SOC as a Service, and automated penetration testing.
