What is a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP)?

Writer: CV Comms TeamCV Comms Team

A Managed Security Service Provider or MSSP is an external resource that can support your network security services and alleviate any strain on IT teams as well as free up crucial time an organisation needs to support and expand its operations. You can look at it as the facilities management version for all your cyber security needs!


As security is a fast changing area, having the right levels of current knowledge and expertise can be costly, so having a trusted MSSP can be vital to ensure the protection and security of your organisation is in place without needing a significant investment in internal resources and training.


Typically, an MSSP will deliver managed services covering:

  • Firewalls

  • Intrusion Detection

  • Virtual Private Networks (VPN)

  • Vulnerability Scanning and Threat Analysis

  • Antiviral Services

At CentriVault, our Hybrid services means we also can offer additional managed security services including:

  • Security and Awareness Training

  • Security Compliance and Accreditations

  • Security Behaviours and Culture Change

  • Incident Response and Management

Managed Service Providers are rapidly developing as cost-effective, efficient methods for managing an organisation's IT infrastructure, whereas Managed Security Service Providers offer more exclusive focus on security measures and prioritisation of security over administration.
