NEWTOWN, Pa., March 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- EPAM Systems, Inc. (NYSE:EPAM) today announced it has become a member of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA), an ecosystem of software development companies and security services partners that have integrated their solutions with Microsoft Security technology to better defend our mutual customers against a world of increasing cyber threats.
"Joining MISA as a services partner reflects the maturity of EPAM's security services and marks an important milestone in the evolution of our existing collaboration with Microsoft," said Elaina Shekhter, SVP, Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer, EPAM. "Being part of the MISA ecosystem is a meaningful validation of how we deliver Microsoft-aligned security services at scale, and it reinforces our commitment to helping joint customers build security capabilities that are resilient in production and designed for long-term outcomes."
EPAM's security services are centered on an engineering-led approach to Microsoft Security technologies – including Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender XDR – helping clients integrate and operate security as a unified platform rather than a one-time deployment.
For joint customers, MISA membership means closer ecosystem alignment and tighter technical collaboration between EPAM and Microsoft to accelerate execution and improve security outcomes in production environments. It also supports stronger coordination across the Microsoft security ecosystem, helping customers scale and continuously improve security operations across cloud and AI-enabled environments.
"The Microsoft Intelligent Security Association has grown into a vibrant ecosystem comprised of the most reliable and trusted security vendors across the globe," said Maria Thomson, Director, Microsoft Intelligent Security Association. "Our members, like EPAM, share Microsoft's commitment to collaboration within the cybersecurity community to improve our customers' ability to predict, detect, and respond to security threats faster."
Established in 2018 to bring together Microsoft leaders and security vendors, MISA focuses on collaborating to combat security threats and create a safer environment for all. Its mission is to provide intelligent, industry-leading security solutions that work together to help protect organizations at the speed and scale of AI in an ever-increasing threat landscape.
