Many organizations are outsourcing security capabilities to third-party cybersecurity providers: managed security providers (MSPs), managed security service providers (MSSPs), and Managed Detection and Response providers (MDR vendors). While there is overlap between these cybersecurity services, each have their own advantages and disadvantages.
