TekStream, a digital resilience company that helps organizations modernize, secure and optimize their technology environments, today celebrates 15 years of sustained growth and evolution during one of the most transformative periods in enterprise technology history.

Founded in 2011 amid rapid cloud adoption and enterprise modernization, TekStream began as a technology solutions provider focused on helping organizations optimize complex IT environments. Over time, as digital infrastructure became more distributed, data-driven, and business-centric, the company expanded its capabilities to meet growing demands for performance, risk and operational continuity.

Today, TekStream serves commercial enterprises, government agencies and higher education institutions across hybrid, distributed and AI-enabled environments, delivering integrated modernization, security and operational strategies under a unified Digital Resilience framework.

“For 15 years, we’ve evolved alongside our customers as technology itself has evolved,” says Rob Jansen, CEO of TekStream. “What began as helping organizations optimize and modernize complex systems has grown into helping them build resilience into every layer of their digital operations. In today’s AI-driven environment, resilience is a business imperative, not just a technical one.”

From Modernization Partner to Digital Resilience Leader

Over the past decade and a half, enterprise technology has shifted dramatically, from centralized data centers to hybrid and cloud-native architectures, from static infrastructure to dynamic, API-driven ecosystems, and from isolated systems to interconnected digital platforms that support mission-critical operations.

As complexity increased, so did the need for integrated visibility, operational efficiency and proactive risk management.

In response, TekStream formalized its Digital Resilience framework, a unified model that integrates modernization, cybersecurity operations and performance optimization. This approach has positioned TekStream not simply as a managed services provider, but as a long-term transformation partner helping organizations align security, modernization and operational strategy.

Fifteen Years of Measured Growth and Industry Recognition

Since its founding, TekStream has achieved consistent growth while maintaining exceptional customer satisfaction and retention, including:

• Achieved a 95+ Net Promoter Score
• 98% customer retention rate
• Recognition as a Representative Vendor in the 2025 Gartner® Market Guide for Co-Managed Security Monitoring Services
• Expansion across commercial, public sector and higher education markets

In the public sector, TekStream introduced its Whole-of-State cybersecurity framework, a collaborative model designed to address systemic vulnerabilities across state and higher education ecosystems. The framework integrates co-managed security operations, shared intelligence and workforce development to help agencies build sustainable, long-term cyber capabilities.

TekStream has also built the largest student-powered SOC in the nation, in partnership with leading higher education institutions and technology partners, including Splunk and AWS. The initiative addresses the cybersecurity workforce gap by pairing hands-on operational experience with enterprise-grade security environments, strengthening both talent pipelines and security outcomes.

Building for the Next Chapter

As AI reshapes enterprise operations and organizations seek greater efficiency, visibility, and control across complex environments, TekStream continues to invest in modernization services, managed detection and response (MDR), cloud optimization, and workforce development.

“Our next chapter is about scale and sophistication,” Jansen added. “Resilience will define the leaders. Organizations that embed security, governance and modernization into a unified strategy will outperform those still managing fragmented tools and reactive processes. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and are even more focused on where we’re going.”

Fifteen years in, TekStream remains committed to helping organizations operate with confidence, adapt to change and build technology environments designed for long-term resilience.
