Tactical Intelligence Security Ltd (TAISE) Named to 2019

MSSP Alert Top 200 Managed Security Services Providers List

Third Annual List Honors Leading MSSPs, MDR Service Providers & Cybersecurity Companies

Monday 23rd September 2019, Accra -- MSSP Alert, published by After Nines Inc., has named
Tactical Intelligence Security Ltd (TAISE) to the Top 200 MSSPs list for 2019 (http://www.msspalert.com/top200).
The list and research identify and honor the top 200 managed security services providers (MSSPs) that specialize
in comprehensive, outsourced cybersecurity services. Previous editions of the annual list honored 100 MSSPs.
This year’s edition, at twice the size, reflects MSSP Alert’s rapidly growing readership and the world’s growing
consumption of managed security services. MSSP Alert’s readership has grown every month, year over year, since
launching in May 2017. The Top 200 MSSP rankings are based on MSSP Alert’s 2019 readership survey combined
with aggregated third-party research. MSSPs featured throughout the list and research proactively monitor, manage
and mitigate cyber threats for businesses, government agencies, educational institutions and nonprofit organizations
of all sizes.

“Being named as a Top 200 MSSP is quite an honor,” said Archzilon Eshun-Davies, the company’s CEO.
“We’re realizing our vision of bringing powerful, yet practical, cybersecurity solutions to small and medium businesses
through our MSP and MSSP partners,” he said. “And this recognition is a clear validation of our commitment. TAISE is
the only provider on this year’s list that offers SOC-as-a-Service in Africa from Africa.”

Several of TAISE’s partners were also included in the top 200 MSSPs list. Archzilon went on to add,
“We also want to offer our sincere congratulations to our partners who made this year’s list, as well.”

“After Nines Inc. and MSSP Alert congratulate Tactical Intelligence Security Ltd on this year’s honor,” said Amy Katz, CEO
of After Nines Inc. “Amid the ongoing cybersecurity talent shortage, thousands of MSPs and IT consulting firms are striving
to move into the managed security market. The Top 200 list honors the MSSP market’s true pioneers.”
