Performanta named top UK MSSP

Managed services provider Performanta has been recognised as the top MSSP in the UK.

The cybersecurity firm landed on MSSP Alert’s Top 250 list for 2023, ranking 28 globally and the only UK company to get into the top 30.

It is a step up for the group which made it to number 40 in 2022.

Performanta CEO Guy Golan said the ranking was an exceptional achievement for the Performanta team.

“As a truly global organisation that started out in South Africa, these accolades are of significant importance to us. We will continue to help our customers overcome the monumental challenges they currently face, with the highest form of integrity, compassion and empathy.”

The ranking found that on average, MSSPs expect to generate $56.3 million in revenue for 2023, more than double the number from its 2022 report. However, the 2023 Top 250 reported 2022 revenues averaged $47 million.

More than 87 per cent of MSSPs surveyed expect to be profitable for fiscal year 2023, while almost all of the larger MSSPs (90 per cent) provided 24/7 security event monitoring and response for threat detection use cases on their own.

Another 61 per cent of the smaller MSSPs provided these services on their own, 35 per cent partnered with another company for these services and just four per cent of the smaller MSSPs did not offer them at all.
