Fifth-Annual List Honors Leading MSSP, MDR, and SOCaaS Cybersecurity Companies Worldwide

MSSP Alert, published by After Nines Inc., has named CyberMaxx to the Top 250 MSSPs list for 2021 (http://www.msspalert.com/top250).

The list and research identify and honor the top MSSPs, managed detection and response (MDR), and Security Operations Center as a Service (SOCaaS) providers worldwide.

The rankings are based on MSSP Alert’s 2021 readership survey combined with the digital media site’s global editorial coverage of managed security services providers. The fifth-annual list and research report track the managed security service market’s ongoing growth and evolution.

“We are honored to be represented in the top 100 cybersecurity companies worldwide,” said CyberMaxx CEO Jason Riddle. “This past year has been a year of growth for CyberMaxx with a new platform investment by Periscope Equity and our launch of MAXX MDR. This achievement is a significant marker of that growth. We are thankful to our clients who have relied on us as a trusted partner in the fight against advanced security threats, and we will continue to fight for them.”

“After Nines Inc. and MSSP Alert congratulate CyberMaxx on this year’s honor,” said Amy Katz, CEO of After Nines Inc. “Amid continued ransomware, malware and supply chain cyber-attacks, the MSSP Alert readership and community continue to mitigate risks for businesses and government organizations worldwide.”
