NEW YORK– February 25, 2025 — Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company focused on reinventing businesses through innovative technology solutions, announced today that it has achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) Level 1 MSSP (Managed Security Service Provider) Competency status.

 

This designation recognizes that Globant has successfully met AWS’s requirements for a baseline of managed security services to protect and monitor essential AWS resources 24/7, known as Level 1 Managed Security Services. This new baseline standard of quality for managed security services was introduced by AWS to benefit cloud environments of any size and it spans six security domains: vulnerability management, cloud security best practices and compliance, threat detection and response, network security, host and endpoint security, and application security. The six domains contain multiple MSSP services, each with technical skillset and operational process requirements specific to AWS.

 

AWS launched the AWS Level 1 MSSP Competency to allow customers to easily acquire ongoing security monitoring and management, validated by AWS. AWS security experts annually validate the tools used and operational processes of each MSSP address specific cloud security challenges such as continuous event monitoring, triaging, AWS service configuration best practices, and 24/7 incident response. The AWS Level 1 MSSP Competency provides a faster and easier experience for customers to select the right MSSP to help them achieve their goals for business risk and cloud strategy confidence.

 

Achieving the AWS Level 1 MSSP Competency differentiates Globant as an MSSP and AWS Partner with essential 24/7 managed cloud security skillsets to earn the distinction of Level 1 MSSP.

 

"At Globant, we are dedicated to pushing for the highest standards, guiding our clients on a transformative journey and providing comprehensive end-to-end security services. This achievement marks yet another significant milestone in that direction," said Diego Tártara, Chief Technology Officer at Globant. “We will continue to drive ourselves to deliver high-quality products, services, and processes, adding more value for our clients by protecting, monitoring, and responding to security events.”

 

According to Gartner, by the end of 2025, it is estimated that 99% of cloud security failures will be attributed to human error. Managed security services set a new standard of quality, defined by AWS security experts to benefit cloud environments of any size.

 

“Achieving the Level 1 Managed Security Service Provider competency from AWS underscores Globant's unwavering commitment to thinking in a direction that inspires results, providing our clients with top-tier, secure cloud solutions”, said Pablo Del Giudice, VP of Technology at Globant’s AWS Studio. “In an era where cloud security is paramount, this accomplishment not only enhances our ability to protect our clients’ critical assets but also reinforces our partnership with AWS, ensuring that we lead the way in delivering innovative and reliable security services.” 

 

Last April, Globant achieved AWS Premier Tier Services Partner status within the AWS Partner Network (APN). AWS Premier Tier Services Partners are organizations recognized for their proven technical expertise and demonstrated customer experience. This new accomplishment highlights Globant’s commitment to earning and maintaining customer trust while seeking proficiency and significant success in creating value for them.

 

Globant's AWS Studio combines the company's global presence, strategic collaboration with AWS, deep understanding of cloud technology and business strategy, and detail-oriented mindset to deliver results and innovative solutions that help clients succeed.
