What Is the CompTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark+?

The Cybersecurity Trustmark+ is an advanced business-level credential issued by CompTIA, a globally recognized trade group for IT professionals. This designation shows that a service provider not only understands cybersecurity but also applies best practices in a practical, auditable way.

To earn this trustmark, GO Technology Group—a certified cybersecurity company—is completing a detailed assessment of its internal security procedures, response strategies, data protection practices, and client-facing services. The process aligns with respected standards such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and CIS Controls. As a result, we’re not just talking about security—we’re putting it into practice at every level.


Why It Matters for Your Business

If your organization operates in finance, legal, education, or government sectors, cybersecurity compliance is not optional—it’s essential. Therefore, choosing a certified cybersecurity company and IT support services provider in Chicago gives you added peace of mind. Here’s what it ensures:

Validated cybersecurity policies and procedures
Proactive threat detection and incident response
Improved compliance with data protection regulations
Ongoing security training for staff
Third-party verification of IT security controls

This level of rigor reduces risk, enhances operational resilience, and supports compliance with frameworks like HIPAA, FERPA, and CMMC.
