Independent assurance reinforces CSE’s commitment to cybersecurity maturity, operational excellence, and protecting the businesses it serves
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, August 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Computer Solutions East, Inc. (CSE), a provider of managed IT, cybersecurity, cloud, and Microsoft solutions, today announced that it has successfully completed the GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark audit and officially achieved GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark Assured status.
The achievement demonstrates that CSE has met or exceeded an industry-developed standard of cybersecurity safeguards created specifically for managed service providers and IT solution providers.
Unlike a one-time security checklist, the GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark is built around an ongoing cybersecurity maturity model. It evaluates how an organization manages security across its leadership, people, policies, technology, and daily operations.
For CSE customers, the designation provides additional confidence that the technology partner responsible for supporting their systems, users, and business data maintains documented and independently assessed cybersecurity practices.
“This achievement reflects the discipline, collaboration, and commitment demonstrated by teams throughout Computer Solutions East,” said Luke Celente, Managing Partner at Computer Solutions East. “Our customers trust us with critical parts of their operations, and that responsibility requires us to hold ourselves to a high standard. Achieving Trustmark Assured status validates the work our team has done while reinforcing our commitment to continuous improvement.”
What the GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark Means
The GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark is an assurance program developed for managed service providers and technology solution providers. Its safeguards are based on recognized cybersecurity frameworks and requirements, including the CIS Critical Security Controls, NIST standards, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and other established security practices.
The assessment examines areas that are essential to operating a mature and defensible cybersecurity program, including:
Governance and leadership
Asset and account management
Secure system configuration
Access control and data protection
Vulnerability and malware defenses
Network monitoring and security
Audit log management
Data backup and recovery
Business continuity and incident response
Cybersecurity awareness and employee training
Third-party vendor management
Penetration testing
Achieving Assured status indicates that CSE’s cybersecurity program has been evaluated against safeguards relevant to the responsibilities and risks faced by modern IT service providers.
Greater Assurance for CSE Customers
Businesses increasingly rely on managed service providers to administer Microsoft 365, networks, cloud infrastructure, endpoints, backups, security controls, and other essential systems.
That access makes the cybersecurity maturity of an IT provider an important part of every customer’s risk-management strategy.
CSE’s GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark Assured status gives customers and prospective customers greater confidence that the company:
Maintains documented cybersecurity policies and procedures
Applies recognized security safeguards within its own operations
Evaluates and addresses cybersecurity risks
Supports incident response and business continuity planning
Protects systems, accounts, and sensitive information through layered controls
Invests in employee security awareness and operational accountability
Continually reviews and improves its security program
The achievement strengthens CSE’s ability to support organizations facing increasing pressure from cyber insurance providers, customers, regulators, and industry compliance requirements.
A Company-Wide Achievement
Completing the Trustmark audit required participation from multiple teams across CSE. Employees contributed to the review and improvement of policies, technical controls, documentation, security processes, evidence collection, risk management, and operational procedures.
“This recognition belongs to everyone who contributed their time, knowledge, and attention throughout the audit process,” Celente added. “It shows what can be accomplished when security becomes a shared responsibility across the entire organization.”
CSE recognizes that maintaining Trustmark Assured status requires continued vigilance. The company will continue strengthening its controls, validating established procedures, educating employees, monitoring risk, and improving its cybersecurity and compliance practices as threats and business requirements evolve.
