LevelBlue is proud to announce that Cyber Defense Magazine has named it the winner of its Global InfoSec Awards 2026 for Trailblazing Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) and Market Disruptor Threat Detection, Incident Response, Hunting and Triage Platform.
“LevelBlue embodies three major features we judges look for to become winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats, today, providing a cost-effective solution, and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.
This year marks the 13th time Cyber Defense Magazine has honored industry standouts with its awards, which will be officially received during the RSAC 2026 Conference. The winners were determined by a panel of CISSP, FMDHS, CEH, and certified security professionals who voted based on their independent review of the company's submitted materials.

MSSP Powerhouse
Over the last year, LevelBlue further secured its position as the world’s largest pure-play provider of managed security services, acquiring Trustwave, Cybereason, and Aon’s cybersecurity and intellectual property litigation consulting groups.
This integration significantly scales LevelBlue’s global footprint and service depth, particularly in North America, Europe, and Asia. By leveraging Cybereason’s market-leading position in Japan, LevelBlue now offers a more robust international delivery model.
Here is how this combined expertise benefits our clients:
- Advanced XDR + MDR Synergy: By merging Cybereason’s XDR technology with Trustwave’s MDR excellence, we’ve bolstered our native detection capabilities. This reduces dwell time and ensures threats are contained with machine-speed precision.
- Premier DFIR Capabilities: Integrating Cybereason’s forensics with the expertise of Stroz Friedberg creates a global powerhouse for Digital Forensics and Incident Response. We provide insurance partners and legal counsel with unmatched, technology-agnostic forensic intelligence.
- Unified Threat Intelligence: The union of Cybereason’s researchers and LevelBlue SpiderLabs provides clients with deeper visibility into emerging attack vectors and actionable, real-time insights.
- Agentic AI Innovation: We combine Cybereason’s AI tools with LevelBlue’s proprietary agentic AI to accelerate investigation cycles. This high-speed integration filters out the noise of false positives, allowing human experts to focus on critical threats.
- Total Defense (Offensive + Defensive): Our portfolio now offers a seamless loop of security—from proactive penetration testing and risk assessments to continuous, reactive monitoring—ensuring total operational resilience.
- Technology-Agnostic Flexibility: We optimize your current security stack—whether it’s built on Microsoft, SentinelOne, or hybrid infrastructure—to maximize your existing investments and improve overall outcomes.
