# Blackpoint Cyber

> Blackpoint Cyber is a Denver-based managed detection and response (MDR) company built by former NSA cyber operations experts who decided the best way to defend businesses was to think like the attackers they used to be. Founded in 2014, the company serves managed service providers (MSPs) with a 24/7 security operations center, proprietary threat detection technology, and its unified CompassOne platform - combining endpoint, identity, cloud, and compliance tools into a single dashboard. With $210M in total funding and 23 G2 badges in Spring 2025, Blackpoint has become one of the most recognized MDR providers in the MSP channel, locking compromised Microsoft 365 accounts roughly every 30 minutes.
