DALLAS – October 30, 2025 – LevelBlue, a leading provider of managed security services, strategic consulting, and threat intelligence, is proud to announce its recognition as the market leader in Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) from Cyber Defense Magazine’s Top InfoSec Innovator Awards. Now in its 13th year, this coveted award program celebrates the most innovative and valuable cyber defense companies across the globe and their industry-leading solutions.
This recognition comes on the heels of LevelBlue’s acquisition of Trustwave and Aon’s Cybersecurity and IP Litigation Consulting Groups, which solidified its position as the world’s largest pure-play MSSP. LevelBlue provides best-in-class managed security services that take a multi-layered approach to addressing the security needs of every business. Through services spanning consulting, design, deployment, support services, employee security awareness training, and an incident response retainer service, LevelBlue enables overburdened or non-existent security teams to improve overall protection and productivity, ensuring organizations no longer have to sacrifice security for innovation.
LevelBlue was also named a winner in two additional award categories: most innovative threat exposure management and publisher's choice unified threat management. These wins celebrate LevelBlue’s unified, cloud-native approach to security monitoring and threat detection, which simplifies and strengthens protection across diverse IT environments.
Its award-winning Unified Security Management (USM) Anywhere platform stood out for combining essential capabilities—including asset discovery, intrusion and endpoint detection, SIEM log management, and continuous threat intelligence—into a single, intuitive dashboard. Built on the USM Anywhere platform, LevelBlue’s Managed Threat Detection and Response for Government (MTDR for Gov) solution was also recognized for its ability to protect highly sensitive data in alignment with the latest government requirements for incident readiness and response, governance, risk, and compliance.
The Top InfoSec Innovators Awards are overseen by Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine, and judged by a range of cybersecurity industry veterans, trailblazers, and market makers.
“LevelBlue embodies three major features we judges look for with the potential to become winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats, today, providing a cost-effective solution, and innovating in unexpected ways that can help manage cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,” said Miliefsky.
