Intercity Joins Microsoft Intelligent Security Association to Strengthen Cybersecurity Defences Intercity has officially joined the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA).

MISA is a global ecosystem of software developers and security service providers who integrate their solutions with Microsoft Security technologies to better protect customers against evolving cyber threats.

As a MISA member, Intercity brings its managed Security Operations Centre (SOC) to the forefront, offering 24/7/365 protection through advanced tools like SIEM (Security Incident and Event Management) and XDR (Extended Detection and Response). These capabilities are powered by the Microsoft Security stack, including Microsoft Sentinel for real-time threat detection and Microsoft Defender for breach containment and isolation.

“Joining MISA is a great milestone for us, because it underlines the work our team is already doing every day to keep our customers safe,” said Charlie Blakemore, CEO of Intercity. “With the threat landscape evolving so quickly, and more businesses impacted daily, this has never been more important. Working together with Microsoft means we can contain and isolate potential breaches before they can spread. For our customers, that means they can focus on running their business, knowing their people, data and systems are more secure.”

Maria Thomson, Director of MISA at Microsoft, added: “The Microsoft Intelligent Security Association has grown into a vibrant ecosystem comprised of the most reliable and trusted security vendors across the globe. Our members, like Intercity, share Microsoft’s commitment to collaboration within the cybersecurity community to improve our customers’ ability to predict, detect, and respond to security threats faster.”

As a business that has been focused on Microsoft technologies for over 25 years, and a direct Cloud Solutions Partner, attaining the MISA accreditation is a significant milestone, recognising the expertise and the trust placed in Intercity as Microsoft expert.
