PTPS Achieves Galactic Trust Level 2 Certification

We are proud to announce that PTPS has officially earned Galactic Trust Level 2 Certification—a significant advancement in our cybersecurity maturity and our commitment to safeguarding our clients’ environments.

This certification is awarded by Galactic Advisors, an independent third-party authority that validates how well organizations implement, maintain, and continuously improve their security controls. Trust Level 2 goes far beyond foundational security—it requires that an organization not only prevents threats, but is also trained and prepared to actively detect, analyze, and respond to them.

What Trust Level 2 Means

Trust Level 2 is achieved by organizations that are not just preventing cyberattacks, but are actively looking for trouble.

To reach this milestone, PTPS demonstrated strong maturity in the following areas:

Advanced Threat Detection & Log Analysis

We have properly configured log aggregation and log analysis tools that continuously monitor our systems. These tools enable us to quickly identify suspicious activity and potential threats across our environment.

Security Training & Fast Response Capabilities

Our team undergoes ongoing training focused on:

  • Rapid threat recognition
  • Virus and malware eradication
  • Log analysis
  • Security control validation

This ensures that every PTPS technician can respond swiftly and decisively to security incidents.

Documented Breach Response Protocols

Trust Level 2 requires organizations to have fully documented, testable breach response plans.
PTPS maintains clear, step-by-step internal protocols for managing, containing, and eradicating threats—ensuring rapid recovery and minimal impact.

Rigorous New-Team-Member Security Education

All new technical staff go through a mandatory cybersecurity onboarding program covering:

  • Threat detection
  • Virus/malware removal
  • Security controls
  • Incident response procedures

This ensures that every member of the PTPS team meets the same high standard of security excellence.

Independent Validation Every 90 Days

Just like Trust Level 1, Trust Level 2 is not a self-certification.

PTPS undergoes:

  • Third-party audits every 90 days
  • Ongoing threat-recognition testing
  • Continual training and competency validation

This ensures our controls remain aligned with industry-leading practices—strengthening our security posture quarter after quarter.

Why This Matters to Our Clients

Achieving Trust Level 2 makes PTPS one of the few MSPs capable of delivering a true enterprise-grade cybersecurity experience to small and midsized businesses.

For clients, this means:

  • Faster detection of potential threats
  • Stronger incident response
  • Reduced risk of breaches
  • Better alignment with compliance frameworks (FINRA, HIPAA, SEC, Cyber Insurance)
