HOUSTON, TX / ACCESS Newsline / October 15, 2025 / Alykasa leading IT provider, Managed servicesAnd Cybersecurity solutions today announced that it has achieved a strategic trifecta of Cisco cybersecurity specializations: the Secure Networking Solution Specialization, the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Solution Specialization, and the Comprehensive detection and response (XDR) solution. Specialization. This rare combination validates Alykas’ unique ability to design, deploy and manage a fully integrated security infrastructure that protects organizations from the network core to the cloud edge.
This achievement is further distinguished by Alykas’ status as part of a select group of Cisco certified partners worldwide, carefully selected by Cisco to deliver its next generation Managed XDR (mXDR) services. Alykas was one of the first partners invited to this elite invitation-only program, a selection based on its deep experience in the MSP and MSSP sectors and its proven technical and operational competencies.
The trifecta of specializations represents a comprehensive, end-to-end security capability that few partners possess. By mastering the fundamental security of the network, the modern architecture of SASE, and the advanced intelligence of XDR, Alykas provides a synergistic defense that is more effective than silo-based, multi-vendor approaches. This integrated model ensures that high-fidelity data from a secure network and a robust SASE architecture feed a more intelligent XDR platform, enabling faster threat detection, more accurate analytics, and more effective automated responses.
“This performance is proof of that that of our team our relentless pursuit of excellence and our deep-rooted partnership with Cisco. But these specializations are about more than just technology; they validate our vision for the future of security operations,” said Faisal Bhutto, CEO of Alykas. “The future of SOC-as-a-Service is not in an isolated security bubble. It is in the deep integration with the Network Operations Center (NOC). Our mXDR offering is unique because our DNA is in the infrastructure. We don’t just detect a threat and send an alert; we understand its full context within the network and can orchestrate a holistic response. This convergence of SOC and NOC eliminates the operational friction that companies experience when juggling multiple providers. It’s about moving from threat detection to full incident resolution, and that requires a partner that manages the entire infrastructure, not just the security layer.”
Achieving these three specializations delivers tangible benefits to Alykas’ customers, translating complex technical capabilities into clear business outcomes. With Cisco’s transition to the new Cisco 360 Partner Program, Alykas is ready to deliver value-added services built on a foundation of strong security.
“We are thrilled to see partners like Alykas investing so deeply in building a comprehensive security practice around Cisco solutions,” said Brian Feeney, Vice President of Global Security Partner Sales, Cisco. “Achieving these specializations is not only among the first partners selected for our Managed
