“Accompanying our ongoing emphasis on serving frequently underserved healthcare organizations and educational institutions, this partnership with NRTC helps expand that effort with a distinct focus on the needs of our nation’s rural communities,” said Jason McGinnis, President and COO at SilverSky. “SilverSky’s MDR services are powerful, yet easy to deploy and affordable – offering an appealing mix for NRTC’s members. We look forward to working with the NRTC Managed Services team to provide these valuable services.”
“Our members provide essential electric and telecommunications services to rural America and thus are obvious targets for hackers. It is vital we arm them with comprehensive cybersecurity tools and resources,” said Jon Bartleson, President of NRTC’s Managed Services division. “Cybersecurity is a top priority for our members and staffing for these types of roles is a major challenge. We chose to partner with SilverSky to make sure we could offer comprehensive, affordable managed cybersecurity to our members.”
