DUBLIN, June 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Managed Information Services Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecast (2019 - 2024)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

These providers are offering various functions such as data recovery, network security, and authentication, which provides high-quality services. Telecom Service Providers are making use of their existing scale and IT savviness to shift beyond data services and voice to selling managed offerings
