Trending MSSP Services, Future Opportunities

All the leading MSSPs offered continuous monitoring and vulnerability management services yet only one provider, Solutionary, offered database security services. Nearly all the leading MSSPs offered security incident management and digital forensics, PCI scanning and security event and threat analysis. Areas that MSSPs are still building out services include application security monitoring, testing and scanning; anomaly-based advanced persistent threat detection, data loss prevention, and emergency response services. Key areas where MSSPs can establish a niche include governance, risk and compliance tool management and identity and access management, according to the Forrester analysis.
