Wendy Bahr, senior vice president, U.S. and Canada channels stated "I have the privilege of recognizing Mountain States Networking as a Cisco Partner Summit regional award winner. The Security Partner of the Year Award recognizes Mountain States Networking's performance and accomplishments as a Cisco channel partner in the Western Area in 2009."

Cisco Partner Summit awards are presented at three levels: regional, theater and global. Cisco Partner Summit US and Canada regional awards reflect a partner's performance in a given geographic region of the U.S. or Canada.

Mountain States Networking has built a robust Cisco Security Practice capable of supporting customers with Security Assessments, PCI Compliance Assessments, Cisco Security Platform Integration Services and many other value added services to ensure the overall security of network and information assets. We have partnered with Cisco to develop a methodology around the overall assessment of network devices, network traffic and network traffic flow both inside and outside of a network.
