ROCKVILLE, MD (October 25, 2023) Dataprise, a distinguished managed IT services and cybersecurity provider, today announced it ranks among the Top 250 MSSPs for 2023, according to MSSP Alert, a CyberRisk Alliance resource. This year, Dataprise soared over 60 spots on the prestigious list honoring the top MSSPs worldwide.  

Dataprise was also named a finalist for the Cybersecurity Association of Maryland’s (CAMI) Defender of the Year award. This award recognizes an exceptional cybersecurity services company that has succeeded in protecting businesses from cyber threats, attacks, and/or damages. 

These two awards reinforce Dataprise’s position as the premier cybersecurity provider nationwide. Highlights from MSSP Alert’s research include: 

• MSSP Revenue Growth & Financial Performance: MSSP honorees, on average, expect to generate $56.3 million in revenue for 2023, more than double the number from our 2022 report. However, the 2023 Top 250 reported 2022 revenues averaged $47 million. 

• Geography: Honorees are headquartered in 37 different countries. 
• Profits: 87% of MSSPs surveyed expect to be profitable for fiscal year 2023. 
• Security Operations Centers: 67% have in-house SOCs, 23% are hybrid, 8% completely outsource their SOCs, and 1% are reevaluating their SOC strategies. 
• Cyberattack Trends: The most frequent attacks targeting MSSP customers in 2023 include phishing (95%), vulnerability exploits (91%) and ransomware (86%). 
• Cybersecurity Solutions: Larger MSSPs were more likely to run their SOC entirely in-house (85%) while just half of our smaller segment MSPs ran their SOCs in-house and 33% took a hybrid approach (a portion in-house and a portion outsourced.)
