AWS Managed Security Service Providers
24/7 AWS and Multicloud Managed Security, on AWS
MSSP Overview
Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) have become essential partners for organizations seeking to strengthen their cloud security posture across AWS and multicloud environments. These AWS-validated partners deliver comprehensive 24/7 security monitoring and management services through dedicated Security Operations Centers (SOCs), offering both fully outsourced security operations and collaborative support alongside existing internal teams. AWS has established a rigorous MSSP Competency that validates partners across a high-quality foundational cloud security checklist and up to seven critical security domains, including infrastructure security, workload security, application security, data protection, identity and access management, incident response, and cyber recovery. These MSSPs can effectively leverage both native AWS security services like AWS Security Hub, Amazon GuardDuty, AWS Security Incident Response, alongside third-party solutions from Security Competency partners. The integration of AI has further enhanced their capability to detect, analyze, and respond to emerging threats in real-time.
As cyber threats continue to evolve and organizations increasingly migrate to cloud environments, MSSPs play a vital role in maintaining robust security postures through continuous monitoring, threat detection, and incident response. This comprehensive approach allows businesses of all sizes to focus on their core operations while ensuring their cloud infrastructure remains secure and compliant with industry standards.
