Frequently asked questions
What is a SeedPod Certified MSP?
A SeedPod Certified MSP is a managed service provider that has been reviewed by SeedPod Cyber's underwriting team. To earn the certification, a provider must meet three baseline requirements and have 24 security controls verified across eight domains, including identity and access, endpoint security, backup and recovery, and email security.
How does an MSP become certified?
Every provider starts with three baseline requirements: at least $1M in Tech E&O / Cyber coverage, a managed service agreement that defines scope and liability, and a documented incident response plan. Providers that meet all three then have their technical and operational controls reviewed by active cyber insurance underwriters. See the full certification standard
Why does certification matter when choosing an IT provider?
Your IT provider has administrative access to your systems, so their security practices directly affect your risk. The controls reviewed for certification are the same ones underwriters evaluate when deciding whether a business is insurable, which gives you an outside, underwriter-led view of how a provider operates before you hire them.
Does working with a certified MSP affect my cyber insurance?
It can help. Businesses supported by a SeedPod Certified MSP can often unlock improved terms, because many of the controls underwriters look for are managed by your IT provider. Your final terms still depend on the underwriting review of your own business. Ask us about coverage
Does my MSP need to be in my state?
Not necessarily. Many managed service providers support clients remotely, and some serve businesses across multiple states. If there isn't a certified partner near you, reach out and we'll help you find one that can support your business.
