We’re proud to share that KaufmanIT has once again been named to CRN’s Managed Service Provider (MSP) 500 list, marking our third consecutive year receiving this industry recognition.
Each year, CRN’s MSP 500 honors the top managed service providers in North America that are redefining how organizations consume and benefit from IT services. Inclusion on this list highlights providers that deliver innovation, operational excellence and measurable business outcomes for their clients.
What Our Spot in the MSP 500 Represents
Our inclusion in CRN’s Managed Security 100 subset of the MSP 500 highlights KaufmanIT’s deep specialization in cybersecurity-first managed services. This designation is reserved for managed service providers that demonstrate a strong, mature focus on delivering security-centric solutions — helping organizations proactively reduce risk, detect threats earlier and respond effectively in an increasingly hostile cyber landscape.
Being named to the Managed Security 100 reflects our ongoing investment in advanced security tooling, disciplined processes and real-world expertise protecting small and midsize businesses that are often targeted but under-resourced. From layered defenses and continuous monitoring to strategic guidance and incident readiness, security is not an add-on at KaufmanIT – it’s foundational to how we deliver managed IT to clients.
This recognition closely aligns with our approach to managed cybersecurity services, where prevention, visibility and accountability come together to support our clients’ operations, compliance requirements and long-term resilience.
Consistency that Matters
Being recognized once is an honor. Being recognized three years in a row is validation.
This continued recognition reflects what our clients experience every day:
- A proactive approach to IT and cybersecurity
- A focus on business outcomes, not just technology
- A commitment to serving small and midsize organizations with enterprise‑grade solutions
As we shared in last year’s announcement, our mission is to ensure SMBs from 1-2500 users have access to the same level of strategic IT leadership and security typically reserved for much larger enterprises. That commitment hasn’t changed – it’s only deepened.
Thank You to Our Team and Clients
This achievement belongs to our entire team. Their dedication to client service, continuous improvement and doing the right thing—even when it’s hard—is what makes recognition like this possible.
And to our clients: thank you for trusting KaufmanIT as your technology partner. Your feedback, collaboration and long‑term relationships continue to shape how we evolve and improve.
Looking Ahead
As technology, cybersecurity threats and compliance requirements continue to evolve, so will we. Recognition from CRN reinforces that we’re on the right path — but it’s not the destination. We remain focused on helping organizations reduce risk, improve productivity and turn technology into a competitive advantage.
Thank you to CRN and The Channel Company for this honor and congratulations to all the MSPs recognized on the 2026 MSP 500 list.
