LevelBlue's sovereign delivery, threat intelligence, and tailored, multi-vendor security operations support organizations across the region shifting towards cyber resilience.
Dallas, TX, November 11, 2026 – LevelBlue, the world's largest pure-play managed security services provider (MSSP), today announced it has been named a Major Player in the IDC MarketScape: Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan and China) Managed Security Services 2026 Vendor Assessment (doc #AP54132726, October 2026).
The IDC MarketScape evaluated 23 managed security services providers across Asia/Pacific on current capabilities and future strategy, noting, “Managed security specialists (i.e., LevelBlue, Orange Cyberdefense, SISA Information Security [SISA], and Inspira Enterprise) start from threat intelligence, incident response, and detection engineering, with proprietary platforms and deep security tradecraft, although their portfolio breadth beyond managed detection and response (MDR) and regional scale vary.”
According to the report, “Clients value LevelBlue for its tailored delivery at scale, Microsoft expertise, and support for existing multivendor environments.” IDC MarketScape also noted that “Sovereign delivery remains a key regional strength of LevelBlue.”
Other strengths cited in the report include:
The report noted, “Consider LevelBlue when you sit in the midmarket as this is where the majority of its APEJC client base is, followed by large enterprises and a modest small enterprise presence. Its clients reported solutions shaped to their requirements. Its vertical fit is weighted toward regulated industries, led by BFSI, followed by critical infrastructure, government, and technology, with a substantial share of the base in regulated verticals overall. This makes LevelBlue a natural short list in which Security of Critical Infrastructure (SOCI) Act, Essential Eight, Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) Technology Risk Management (TRM), or data residency obligations are in play and ©2026 IDC #AP54132726e 14 sovereignty has become a procurement gate rather than a preference, supported by a live Australian platform instance, an Australia- and U.S.-only analyst option, and a comanaged model keeping data in the client's own tenant.”
“Organizations across Asia/Pacific are moving beyond alert management toward true cyber resilience, and sovereignty has become a requirement, not a preference,” said Jo Salisbury, LevelBlue Asia Pacific Regional Director of Growth and Performance. “We believe this recognition from IDC MarketScape reflects what our clients tell us every day: they want a single trusted partner that combines global threat intelligence and incident response expertise with local operational control, and that works with the technology they already own. We're proud to be recognized, and we'll keep investing in the region, including our sovereign SOC in Sydney, to help customers prevent, withstand and recover from cyber threats.”
LevelBlue delivers managed security services across Asia/Pacific through an integrated portfolio spanning managed extended detection and response (MXDR), co-managed SOC, exposure management, cloud and network security, identity protection, and incident readiness and response. Its operations are powered by the vendor-agnostic Indigo Security Operations Platform and by SpiderLabs, LevelBlue's threat intelligence and research team of more than 1,000 security professionals.
For clients that require sovereign handling, LevelBlue offers a “Five Eyes” follow-the-sun model staffed by Australian and U.S. analysts, along with a local SOC in Sydney that went live in August 2026.
