What CSPi does

CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI) is a publicly traded technology company founded in 1968 and headquartered in Lowell, Massachusetts, operating through two divisions: High-Performance Products and Technology Solutions. The High-Performance Products division, marketed under the ARIA Cybersecurity Solutions brand, sells the patented AZT PROTECT zero-trust endpoint protection solution, the ARIA ADR (Advanced Detection and Response) platform with machine-learning-based threat detection, the ARIA SDS software-defined security platform, ARIA Packet Intelligence with wire-rate packet classification up to 100Gbps, nVoy security appliances (AIR, Packet Recorder, Packet Broker), and Myricom-branded SmartNIC network adapters. The Technology Solutions division delivers Managed IT Services, Professional IT Services, and Cloud Services through offices in Boca Raton, Florida and Wokingham, United Kingdom, targeting mid-market customers.

The company generates revenue through a mix of perpetual software licenses (ARIA SDS Orchestrator, ARIA Packet Intelligence), hardware sales (Myricom network adapters, nVoy appliances), recurring managed services contracts (Vital Managed IT, MSSP offerings), and project-based professional services. Its go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales with an extensive global channel network spanning distributors (Avnet, Tech Data/TD SYNNEX, Stordis), integrators (including a top-three global cybersecurity reseller providing reach to approximately 6,000 enterprises), and technology partners such as Rockwell Automation, Carahsoft, GrayMatter, Logi-Tech, OPTIV, and Splunk. Target customers are critical infrastructure operators in manufacturing, energy, and production environments as well as enterprise IT buyers needing network visibility, threat detection, and compliance with HIPAA, GDPR, and 23 NYCRR 500.

Recent strategic emphasis centers on AZT PROTECT, positioned as a fourth-generation security approach designed to stop AI-driven attacks and ransomware without unscheduled patching, with the first commercial deployment announced at a leading pet food producer in early 2026. The company has invested in OT-specific go-to-market capabilities, including the March 2026 appointment of an OT cybersecurity veteran (James J. LaBonty) to its board, and has built ecosystem integrations with Splunk, Cortex XSOAR, Sumo Logic, and major firewall vendors to embed its packet intelligence inside existing SOC stacks.

CSPi's reported financials show flat-to-modestly-growing revenue of $58.7M in FY2025 (up from $55.2M in FY2024) but declining profitability, with FY2025 EBITDA of -$0.6M and net income of -$0.1M, versus EBITDA of $5.9M in FY2023. The company employs 51–100 people and is led by CEO Victor Dellovo, CFO Gary Levine, and Cybersecurity GM Gary Southwell.

Direct peers

• Darktrace: AI-driven cybersecurity vendor using self-learning models for autonomous threat detection and response, conceptually analogous to ARIA ADR/CloudADR as an AI-driven SOC replacement for traditional enterprise customers.
• Dragos: OT/ICS cybersecurity vendor specializing in asset discovery, threat detection, and vulnerability management for industrial environments — the closest direct competitor to CSPi's AZT PROTECT in critical-infrastructure protection.
• Vectra AI: Network-detection-and-response vendor applying AI to detect attacker behaviors in east-west and north-south traffic — comparable to ARIA Packet Intelligence's wire-rate packet classification and AI-driven threat detection positioning.
• Nozomi Networks: OT and IoT security specialist offering network visibility, threat detection, and vulnerability management — directly comparable niche focus on critical infrastructure operators targeted by AZT PROTECT.
• Claroty: Cybersecurity platform purpose-built for industrial and OT networks, delivering visibility, threat detection, and secure remote access comparable to ARIA SDS/AZT PROTECT positioning for manufacturing and critical infrastructure.
• Forescout: Cybersecurity vendor with strong OT/IoT asset visibility and network segmentation capabilities — competes in the same critical-infrastructure and industrial-customer space as CSPi's OT-focused solutions.
• ExtraHop: Network detection and response platform providing deep packet-level visibility and AI-driven threat detection — overlapping with ARIA Packet Intelligence and nVoy Series in the network forensics / breach-investigation category.

Broad incumbents

• CrowdStrike: Endpoint and XDR leader with a much larger product portfolio and sales footprint; increasingly bundling OT/IT capabilities and an enterprise SIEM/SOAR-style platform that competes with the broader ARIA portfolio as a single-vendor alternative.
• Cisco (Secure Network Analytics / Cyber Vision): Networking giant with Stealthwatch, Cyber Vision OT, and Cisco Secure Firewall — directly comparable to CSPi's packet-intelligence and OT offerings as a broader incumbent with embedded enterprise and integrator channels.
