MSSP History and Company Names,,

Since I have started working actively in the MSSP field.. I have heard hundreds of stories about how lucrative the market is ,why everybody should be in this business. There aren't so many pure play managed security services providers but all companies are offering something: Integrators, TelCos, Product Vendors, ASPs and ISPs keep offering managed security services. Of course this makes the market complex after several M&As , bankruptcies, takeovers, name changes and spin offs. Here is a draft map that I had scratched on my notes. Again this is draft and open for corrections. Let me know what is missing in the picture..
