IT and Security teams to maintain secure environments during the
mass transition of employees working remotely and the surge in
cyberattacks targeting its inherent security weaknesses.
In a webinar for security service providers taking place on
April 22nd (register here[1]), a leading MSSP will
share how they conquer and overcome the coronavirus quarantine
challenges to grow their customer base.
The webinar sheds light on the opportunities and challenges this
new reality introduces to MSSPs from the perspective of a leading
Canadian MSSP.
While it might sound strange to discuss the opportunities
Coronavirus brings, especially with the changes it imposes on the
IT environment, but it does bring a shift in priorities.
It turns out that cyber threats that were normally considered a
reasonable risk to contain, suddenly become regarded as a critical
need to address. Thus, organizations that did not have advanced
threat protection in place are now seeking to rapidly fill this
gap.
The problem is that these organizations typically don’t have the
in-house expertise to evaluate, deploy, and manage these solutions,
making turning to 3rd party service providers the natural
choice.
Pair that with management’s sense of urgency, the crisis paves
the way for significantly more rapid cycles than usual, creates an
immense amount of opportunities for MSSPs.
Of course, the quarantine also introduces unique challenges. The
most prominent of which is how to conduct a full sales and
operational cycle remotely without meeting the customer face to
face and more importantly, without physical access to the
customer’s site.
This, in turn, compels MSSPs to reevaluate the security
technology they are using based on its ability to deploy, manage,
investigate, and remediate in a manner that is unrelated to whether
it’s done on-site or remotely.
The webinar hosts the COO of a leading Canadian MSSP and
Incident Response provider, who shares his first-hand experience on
delivering security services in the Coronavirus times, he will
share:
- The opportunity Coronavirus quarantine introduces to incident
response services - How remote, rapid, and seamless deployment is a key success
enabler - Why threat protection and remediation capabilities for the
endpoint, network, and user attacks are essential to ensure
customers are well defended - Various case studies featuring different customer engagement
and value scenarios.
