CyberTek MSSP, an award-winning Managed Security Service Provider, has announced that it has appointed Joshua Bergen as Chief Executive Officer.

As CEO, Bergen will spearhead the company’s mission to partner with businesses to overcome infinite challenges through technology and expertise.

Previously, Bergen was the President of CyberTek and President of VENZA, the leading provider of data protection and regulatory compliance solutions for the hospitality industry. He holds certifications as a Certified Hospitality Accounting Executive and Certified Technology Professional as a 17-year-member of Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals (HFTP).

“In the last three years, CyberTek has transformed from being a primarily locally oriented IT provider to national presence offering a comprehensive suite of cybersecurity and data protection tools, alongside cutting-edge IT support services,” said Bergen. “Our team has navigated that transition exceptionally well—carving out a reputation for delivering exceptional service backed by unparalleled expertise. I believe that our people make the difference, not just the tools we deploy, and look forward to leading our company’s continued growth and building upon the successes of our past.”

“CyberTek has quickly become a major player in the red-hot national cybersecurity conversation. We’ve set ambitious goals for growth and are excited to push forward toward them, while at the same time providing the same top-tier expert customer service that our partners have come to know from the company. CyberTek will do so by continuing to attract top-shelf industry talent and partnering with the leading players in the IT space,” he added.

“I am confident in passing the torch to Josh Bergen, a leader whose vision and expertise have been instrumental in shaping CyberTek's journey so far,” said Jeff Venza, outgoing CEO. “CyberTek has big plans in store—we expect that, in the coming years, the company will become a Super MSSP, exceeding $100m in annual revenue. The company shareholders appointed Josh because he’s the right man to lead that effort.”

“Under his leadership, I am certain that CyberTek will not only continue to excel but will also reach new heights in innovation and service excellence. Josh’s deep understanding of our core values, commitment to excellence, and forward-thinking approach make him the ideal choice to lead CyberTek into its next chapter of growth and success,” he added.

Venza will remain with the company as a member of its board of directors.
