Twinstate Technologies® announced today that Albany Business Review, a publication of American City Business Journals, ranked Twinstate Technologies number three on its “Top Cybersecurity Firms”list.

“We are delighted to be on this prestigious list alongside other esteemed information security experts,” says Twinstate Technologies CEO and Acting CISO Devi Momot,CISSP®, GSLC®, GISP®. “Ranking in the top three signifies our commitment to theinformation security field and detecting, protecting against and managing security risks for our customers. The threat landscape is becoming more damaging, more sophisticated and more complex every day. It’s our mission to help small- and medium-sized businesses obtain enterprise-level security within their budget.

Uniquely, Twinstate Technologies provides both Red Team (offensive) and Blue Team(defensive) managed security and consultative cybersecurity services. Areas of specialization include: securing organizations against ransomware; incident responsevulnerability assessments for networks, credentials, websites and web applications; penetration testing; social engineering prevention; endpoint protection; email hosting and protection; business continuity and backup; perimeter protection; and patch management.

In addition, the company offers Cybersecurity Awareness Training and Cybersecurity Awareness Certification Training, delivering a deep dive into cybersecurity awareness, why best practices are essential, and how individuals can protect themselves against attacks.With people often being the weakest link in security, teaching them how to thwart threats will make a significant impact on the organizations where they work.

Other key security-centered differentiators include Twinstate Technologies’ ongoing investigation into new technologies to bring to small- and medium-sized businesses, timely insights on critical vulnerabilities, valuable threat intelligence, and knowledge of new developments in areas such as hardware hacking. Its Red Team and Blue Team collaboration, ability to go beyond push-button assessments and having certified incident response handlers further sets Twinstate Technologies apart from other Managed Security Service Providers.

“The need for trusted Managed Security Service Providers, as well as Managed Service Providers (MSPs), has never been greater,” says Momot. “Being able to fill these gaps for organizations makes doing business much more than, well, doing business. We want organizations to view us as an extension of their technology teams — a valued partner — delivering guidance and solutions in areas that may be lacking. Supplying peace of mind for our customers at rates they can afford is a true reward all in itself.”
