Chicago – Sept 18, 2023 – Trustwave has again been named a Top 10 MSSP by the industry publication MSSP Alert, a CyberRisk Alliance resource, in its 2023 Top 250 MSSPs List, placing 10th this year.
The list identifies and honors the top MSSPs worldwide. The rankings are based on MSSP Alert’s 2023 readership survey combined with the site’s editorial coverage of MSSP, MDR, and MSP security providers. The seventh-annual list and research track the MSSP market’s ongoing growth and evolution.
“MSSP Alert and CyberRisk Alliance congratulate Trustwave on this honor,” said Jessica C. Davis, editorial director of MSSP Alert, a CyberRisk Alliance resource. “The Top 250 MSSPs continue to outperform the overall cybersecurity services market in 2023. It’s an indication of the strength of managed security services provided by these specialists at a time when cybercrime has accelerated and threatens businesses of every size and from every industry.”
Highlights from the associated MSSP Alert research for 2023 include:
- MSSP Revenue Growth & Financial Performance: MSSP honourees, on average, expect to generate $56.3 million in revenue for 2023, more than double the number from our 2022 report. However, the 2023 Top 250 reported 2022 revenues averaged $47 million.
