KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sword & Shield Enterprise Security, a leading cybersecurity firm headquartered in Knoxville, Tennessee, and serving clients nationally, was named by MSSP Alert, the global voice for managed security service providers, to its 2017 Top 100 Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) list.

With rankings based on aggregated, weighted data from six sources, Sword & Shield came in at No. 46 on the MSSP Alert Top 100 list.

"We understand the strain that can sometimes be placed on a company's IT department to protect, detect and respond to security threats," said John McNeely, president and CEO of Sword & Shield Enterprise Security. "For the past 20 years, we have helped provide or supplement our client's security operations to help mitigate risk and keep their information safe 24/7, 365 days a year. Our recognition as a top MSSP solidifies the value we bring to those companies looking not just for another vendor, but for a true partner in security."

According to the methodology document by MSSP Alert for the 2017 list, the global MSSP market is projected to grow from $16.30 billion to $40.97 billion in 2022.

"As cyberattacks continue to grow in sophistication, it's important that companies fight with expertise and vigilance," McNeely said. "Whether the issue is a talent shortage, restricted IT budgets, or the seemingly overwhelming task of staying on top of ever-changing security threats, we're available to work together with businesses to manage their risk and keep them as secure as possible."
