                Top 5 Evaluation Criteria When Selecting an MSSP

                Consider these important factors when evaluating a Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP)

                What you will learn:

                • What is the MSSP's focus
                • What is the depth and breadth of their security expertise
                • What are the internal security practices of the vendor

                There are many blogs, articles, and white papers out there that discuss why you should partner with a third party security expert.

                We’ve written a few ourselves. But once you’ve made the decision to partner with a Managed Security Services Provider, what criteria should you consider?

                There are different types of MSSPs in the matkerplace, and choosing one that meets the needs of your business requires a lot of research. There are security product companies that offer managed services related to their particular product. There are MSSPs that offer both products and managed services, but often with a limited menu of security devices that they manage. And then there are MSSPs that provide end-to-end security services.

                When evaluating potential MSSPs, be sure you are comparing apples to apples. There are a multitude of questions that you will want answers to when selecting a trusted security provider, but be on the lookout for certain criteria that will ensure that the provider you choose has the right capabilities to keep your assets protected and your organization out of the news.
