3rd Element Consulting Named to CRN's MSP 500, Security 100 List for 2026

CRN named 3rd Element Consulting to its 2026 MSP 500 list in the Security 100 category, the group recognizing managed service providers with deep, cloud-based security expertise.

What the recognition covers

CRN, a brand of The Channel Company, publishes the MSP 500 every year across three groups. The Pioneer 250 recognizes providers focused on the small and midsize business market. The Elite 150 covers providers blending on- and off-premises services for mostly midmarket and enterprise clients. The Security 100 spotlights providers with cloud-based security expertise specifically.

3rd Element was named to the Security 100 group for 2026. This is not a first appearance. The company has held a spot in that group for multiple consecutive years.

What it means for clients

Being named to a security-focused list among tens of thousands of MSPs nationally is not the point on its own. What it reflects is a standard the company has held consistently, evaluated from outside the company rather than described by it. As Dawn Sizer put it: "Security has never been an add-on for us. It's our foundation."
