As an owner of a MSP business, you know that security is a massive threat in our industry. Security is rapidly becoming one of the biggest threats to both your clients’ and your own continued business success. While massive data breaches at well-known national companies continue to make the headlines, the real story is the quieter, widespread epidemic of successful cyberattacks against small and medium-sized business (SMBs).
There are two growing trends that put SMBs at greater risk than ever:
- Threats are more frequent and sophisticated, while the attack surface has expanded through cloud, mobile and now work from home.
- As large businesses continue to invest and implement the right people, processes and technology to protect their businesses so cybercriminals are now turning their attention to a much more vulnerable and easier targets: which is you the small and mid-sized businesses.
It’s because small and mid-sized companies typically don’t have the skills, the awareness, or resources to protect themselves against today’s advanced cyberthreats, they need the help of a trusted MSP more than ever.
While offering security services is a clear revenue opportunity, it is also becoming the biggest differentiator for MSPs. SMBs clients will favor and migrate to those MSPs who can truly protect them with a full spectrum or complete security package that includes 24×7 threat detection and response.
