Why Internal IT Teams and MSPs Work Better Together

Having an internal IT team is a major asset. But in today’s fast-moving and increasingly complex IT landscape, even the most capable in-house staff can use some extra support.

That’s where partnering with a Managed Service Provider (MSP) or a Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) comes in.

At Cyber Solutions, we work side by side with internal IT teams to extend their capabilities, reduce their stress, and give them time back to focus on strategic priorities.

This Isn’t About Replacement of Internal IT. It’s About Reinforcement & Filling the Gaps.

Your internal IT staff knows your business, your systems, and your people. They’re vital. But they may not have the time, tools, or manpower to handle everything — especially when it comes to cybersecurity, compliance, or large-scale projects.

A good MSP or MSSP acts as a force multiplier, not a replacement.

What Can an MSP or MSSP Help With?

• 24/7 monitoring and alert response
  Your internal team doesn’t need to be on-call around the clock. We cover after-hours support and critical alerts.
• Project execution and technical expertise
  Deploying new infrastructure, migrating to Microsoft 365, or setting up advanced security controls? We help scope, manage, and complete projects faster.
• Security Stack Management
  ThreatLocker, EDR, firewall policies, backups, and compliance tools can take time to manage. Add in SOC/SIEM monitoring, MDR services, and constant patching, and it’s easy for internal teams to get overwhelmed. We handle maintenance, updates, threat detection, and reporting so your internal staff can stay focused on strategic priorities instead of chasing alerts or managing multiple dashboards.

• Compliance and documentation
  We assist with written policies, quarterly reviews, risk assessments, and audit prep for HIPAA, CMMC, NIST, and FTC Safeguards.
• User onboarding and support
  Offload day-to-day help desk tasks like password resets, user provisioning, and license management.

Why Internal IT Teams Appreciate MSP Support

• They gain time back to focus on strategic work
• They avoid burnout by not juggling every ticket or alert
• They learn from experts without needing to hire more staff
• They scale faster by tapping into additional tools and manpower
• They increase coverage across endpoints, cloud apps, and networks

We don’t take over. We back you up. And your team remains in control.

When to Consider Co-Managed IT or MSSP Support

• You’re growing quickly and can’t hire fast enough
• You’re facing security requirements your team has not handled before
• Your internal IT team needs help with specialized tools like ThreatLocker or SIEM
• You want to improve response time or coverage without increasing headcount
• You’re preparing for a compliance audit or cybersecurity insurance renewal

Co-managed IT is flexible. Whether you need one extra set of hands or full-time help with cybersecurity, we build a support model around your existing team.
