Once the provider&#8217;s organization has completed all MSPV documentation on all applicable control objectives (with the assistance of MSPAlliance&#8217;s readiness assessments, gap analysis, helpful templates and consulting) the results are then examined by an independent third-party accounting firm for verification and signing of a public facing report.<\/p>\n<p>As with any other certification of this type, the MSPV certification must be renewed annually. The MSPV was the first certification created specifically for the managed services and cloud industry. The MSPV has been reviewed by governmental agencies and regulatory bodies across the globe and is used and accepted in 5 continents around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Customers who select a company that is part of the MSPV can also rest assured that their IT solution provider has met and exceeded the following standards dealing with:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"two-col in-flex orange\">\n<li><strong>Objective 1:<\/strong> Governance,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 2:<\/strong> Policies and Procedures,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 3:<\/strong> Confidentiality and Privacy,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 4:<\/strong> Change Management,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 5:<\/strong> Service Operations Management,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 6:<\/strong> Information Security,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 7:<\/strong> Data Management,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 8:<\/strong> Physical Security,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 9:<\/strong> Billing and Reporting,<\/li>\n<li><strong>Objective 10:<\/strong> Corporate Health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;We are honored to once again represent Middle Tennessee as a top-ranked managed service provider in the region,&#8221; said Don Baham, President, Kraft Technology Group. &#8220;As the only MSPV certified company headquartered in the state of Tennessee, we are excited to continue our relentless effort of providing compliant managed IT services and best-of-breed managed security solutions to the clients we serve.\u00a0The MSPV Program is just one more way we continue to differentiate our service and solutions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>ABOUT Kraft Technology Group<\/h2>\n<p>Kraft Technology Group, LLC (KTG) provides Managed IT Services, Technology Consulting, Cybersecurity Management, and virtual CIO services to businesses throughout Tennessee and beyond.
