Blackpoint Cyber

Blackpoint Cyber is a cybersecurity company headquartered in Ellicott City, Maryland, that provides managed detection and response and managed security operations. The company was founded in 2014 and has built a strong channel-focused model serving managed service providers and businesses. Blackpoint's technology and security operations combine endpoint, identity, cloud and network telemetry with human analysts to detect and respond to threats. Its MDR service is designed around active response, meaning security operators can take containment actions when malicious behavior is identified rather than simply generating alerts for a customer to investigate. The company also provides managed SOC services, threat hunting, incident response and cyber resilience capabilities. Blackpoint emphasizes a distributed security operations model and a focus on stopping attackers during an active intrusion. Its platform can integrate with existing security tools, allowing MSPs and customers to use Blackpoint as a managed security layer without replacing every technology already deployed. The company serves thousands of organizations through a broad partner ecosystem and is particularly well known within the MSP and MSSP market. Blackpoint continues to expand its capabilities around identity, cloud and automated detection as attackers increasingly target credentials and SaaS environments. Its model is relevant to organizations that need 24/7 security monitoring and response but do not want to build and staff a full internal SOC.
