CLEVELAND, Ohio, September 16, 2022, — MSSP Alert, a CyberRisk Alliance resource, has named AgileBlue to the Top 250 MSSPs list for 2022.
The list and research identify and honor the top MSSPs (managed security service providers) worldwide. The rankings are based on MSSP Alert’s 2022 readership survey combined with the site’s editorial coverage of MSSP, MDR and MSP security providers. The sixth-annual list and research track the MSSP market’s ongoing growth and evolution.
“We are thrilled to be named on the MSSP Alert’s Top 250 list for the second year,” said Gillian Sweny, Director of Marketing, AgileBlue. “There are thousands of successful firms worldwide that are proving they are key players in our industry, and we feel honored to be listed among the best of them.”
“MSSP Alert congratulates AgileBlue on this year’s honor,” said Joe Panettieri, editorial director of MSSP Alert. “The MSSP Alert readership and Top 250 honorees continue to outpace the cybersecurity market worldwide.”
