CSP Networks

What CSP Networks does

CSP Networks is a privately held Managed Service Provider founded in 2004 and headquartered in Irvine, California. The firm delivers outsourced IT infrastructure management, cybersecurity, cloud, data backup, and compliance services to SMB and enterprise customers across the United States, with concentrated coverage across Southern California (Orange, Los Angeles, and San Diego counties). Its product portfolio is organized around five service pillars: Managed Services (CSP Managed IT, CSP Managed Backup, CSP Managed Microsoft 365), Cybersecurity (CSP End Point Security, CSP Total Email Security, CSP Managed Detection and Response, plus add-ons for training, encryption, firewall, wireless, and incident response), Data Backup (CSP Backup M365/GWS, Secure, Premier, Premier+), Computing (edge computing, HCI, hybrid cloud, VDI, virtualization via Scale Computing), and Compliance (CMMC 2.0, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI DSS, NIST SP 800-171, cyber insurance readiness). Technology is built on third-party platforms rather than proprietary IP: Microsoft (Direct Tier 1 Cloud Solution Provider since 2017), Sophos (Gold Partner since 2020), and Scale Computing (Gold Partner since 2024) supply the underlying stacks that CSP packages into its own branded SKUs.

The business model is subscription and recurring-revenue driven, with customized annual contracts per client and a mix of full-IT-outsourcing and co-managed engagements. Go-to-market is direct, consultative enterprise field sales augmented by website contact forms, a 24/7 phone line (949-468-3100), and localized SEO across Southern California cities. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; quotes are produced after free consultations. The customer base spans manufacturing (Nucor, Dahua, Quikrete, ACCO Engineered Systems), financial services (LPL Financial, Raymond James), healthcare (Obria Medical Clinics), technology (Quest Solution), consumer products (Solo Stove), and non-profit (JDRF), with manufacturing as a recognized vertical specialty. CSP Networks has been consecutively ranked on the Channel Futures MSP 501 list from 2017 through 2024 (#74 worldwide in 2024) and has received ChannelE2E Top 100 Manufacturing Vertical recognition in 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023, and 2024. Leadership comprises CEO Michael Chen, President/COO Ryan Dillon, and CTO Gary Beck (joined via the July 2025 acquisition of Beck Computer Systems), and the firm is privately held with no disclosed outside funding.
