MSSP Designation is a Signal of Cyber Security Expertise for Southern California Businesses
September 28, 2021 – (Rancho Cucamonga, CA) Accent Computer Solutions, Inc. has again landed on MSSP Alert’s list of the world’s top Managed Security Service Providers (MSSP). The list is published annually by After Nines, an IT industry association that conducts research identifying companies that specialize in cyber security services according to their annual growth, profitability, staff expertise, and technologies that they use.
“Demand for cyber security services continues to climb as companies realize that they need to mature their cyber security posture,” said Marty Kaufman, President and Founder of Accent Computer Solutions. “Companies have come to this point either because they’ve had a cyber attack, because their customers are demanding accountability for security, or because their IT team is telling leadership that advanced cyber security is outside of their skill set.”
Cyber security services have evolved as cyber criminal tactics have matured. The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made a big impact on the technology tools that are now necessary to put up an effective cyber defense. Advanced security tools that fight AI with AI are vital because you can’t just fight against known threats, you have to recognize and respond to new threats every day.
“Modern cyber security includes using sophisticated technology tools that you don’t find in many managed IT service providers or in-house IT teams,” said Peter O’Campo, Chief Technology Officer at Accent Computer Solutions. “We’re able to bring the capabilities that these tools provide to companies, and even to other IT companies, to structure a solid cyber defense that gives business leaders confidence in how they’re managing business risk.”
Accent’s portfolio of cyber security services includes cyber security and compliance assessments, as well as ongoing cyber security strategy and management. The company has seen requests for cyber assessments grow tenfold in the past year as business leaders seek a transparent view of how their IT team is handling security, or need a facilitator to guide them through new regulatory compliance requirements like the Cybersecurity Model Maturity Certification (CMMC).
Accent Computer Solutions is one of only two Southern California Managed Service Providers (MSP) to appear on both the Top 250 MSSP and 501 MSP list, which signals unique expertise in both cyber security and IT management strategy and services.
