New York, New York, May 14, 2024 – Align, the premier global provider of technology infrastructure solutions and managed IT services, was recently featured on the cover of GRC Outlook’s Managed Security Edition, and was named within the Top 10 Managed Security Providers. GRC Outlook, an industry publication covering the latest trends of governance, risk management, and compliance, highlighted Align’s Managed Services offering, of which Cybersecurity is a major component.

Align’s focus on the alternative investment industry makes it unique, and its inclusion of cybersecurity services as a part of its managed services offering make it one of a kind. As the only MSP in the industry to offer these services as a package, they are also the first to house their infrastructure in the public cloud. These unique factors have garnered quite a bit of recognition for Align over the past few years, including being named the MSP of the Year by Channel Futures in 2023.

“Our solutions are built with the success of our clients in mind,” says Vinod Paul, President of Align Managed Services. “As such a highly specialized MSP, we have a deep understanding of the unique needs of our clients and have built, expanded, and improved our solutions with these needs in mind. We recently adopted Microsoft Copilot to increase collaboration and security while leveraging the latest in AI technology, and we added increased ransomware protection to our Managed Detection and Response (MDR) platform Align Guardian, with 'Total Ransomware Defense' by Adlumin.”

Align’s deep understanding of the Alternative Investment space makes them a powerful partner to their clients as they are able to address the stringent regulatory requirements characteristic of the industry, and their dedication to maintaining strong cybersecurity solutions protects firms from the ever-changing cyber threat landscape.

“Bundling our cybersecurity solutions with our Managed Services offering creates an incredibly reliable and secure platform for our clients,” says Chris Zadrima, Chief Operating Officer of Align. “By making our cybersecurity offering so accessible, we empower smaller firms to meet the regulatory and compliance requirements they’re subject to, which could otherwise be a challenge. This evens the playing field of the industry a bit, and creates more opportunities for our clients to be successful.”
