Quantum computing is an emerging technology that presents significant data security risk to global organizations that rely on quantum vulnerable encryption algorithms, systems, and infrastructure. The threat isn’t theoretical. The risk of quantum-enabled attacks will fundamentally reshape how organizations encrypt their data, design their digital trust infrastructure, and maintain agility in production cryptographic systems.

As cyber threats continue to escalate in volume and sophistication, organizations increasingly rely on managed security services to detect, monitor, and respond to attacks. Two leading solutions in this space— Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and Managed Extended Detection and Response (MXDR) address these challenges in different ways.

Periodic vulnerability scans should no longer be an acceptable standard by any security-minded organization. What is needed is the ability for MSSPs to quickly identify and prioritize risks across all client environments. To enable this capability LevelBlue has developed and rolled out LevelBlue Exposure Management for Partners. This solution delivers continuous visibility, meaningful context, and clarity around how risks could impact the business.

LevelBlue is excited to announce that SC Media has selected us as a finalist for the 2026 SC Media Awards under the Best Managed Security Service category. For 29 years, the SC Awards have recognized companies and individuals driving innovation in cybersecurity and those working every day to defend our digital world and advance the practice of information security.

Too many organizations today still rely on "legacy" retainer models. These traditional contracts are often rigid, opaque, and reactive, and designed for a world that no longer exists. That’s why LevelBlue is proud to announce the Resilience Retainer. This is a modern, flexible approach built on our experience of handling more than 9,000 cyber incidents worldwide. This up-to-date approach is a necessity, given the long-lasting impact an incident can have.

Self-evaluation in any area, especially cybersecurity, can be difficult, but in an age when supply chains are long and third-party attacks are common, understanding your vendor’s cybersecurity posture is key. To address this cybersecurity challenge, LevelBlue Security Colony, a service founded under the legacy Trustwave brand, offers a Vendor Risk Assessment tool. It enables organizations to hold a mirror up to their online presence and see how it appears to others, particularly threat actors.

Microsoft has made significant gains in the cybersecurity market, earning top rankings from leading analyst firms such as IDC and Forrester for its endpoint protection and threat detection and response capabilities. Solutions like Microsoft Defender XDR and Microsoft Sentinel provide powerful, integrated security across endpoints, identities, email, cloud workloads, and data. But technology alone does not deliver outcomes.

The Asia-Pacific region is home to the highest concentration of manufacturing sites on the planet, so it comes as no surprise that manufacturers here absorb more attacks than the rest of the world combined. LevelBlue SpiderLabs compiled the Manufacturing Threat Landscape 2025 report, which noted that 56% of all attacks targeting the manufacturing sector occurred in the APAC region. This is compared to 22% in North America, Europe (16%), and Africa (2%).

A Chief Information Officer’s (CIO) life is rarely simple or easy. Many are concerned about threat actors using AI to attack their organization, while at the same time attempting to convince their leadership to invest in AI as a defensive measure. A recent LevelBlue report Persona Spotlight: CIO, found that CIOs understand the threat, but many organizations are still behind the curve when it comes to certain aspects of their cyber defense.

I have managed Alliances for more years than I can count on two hands, and the best results I’ve seen come from genuine collaboration. Shared planning and learning, along with honest conversations about what’s working and what needs to improve. When that happens, clients benefit most.
