Today, the double-edged sword called cyber insurance is both a must-have and a safeguard that’s increasingly difficult to acquire and afford. In 2022, cyber insurance coverage is more elusive for companies than it was in 2021—and chances are strong that that trend will continue. Why is it so scarce and costly? The explosion of ransomware and...
It’s an increasingly critical question these days: Does the responsibility lie with MSPs or with its clients when it comes to obtaining, managing, and optimizing cyber insurance coverage? Even though increasingly frequent data breaches have made cyber coverage extremely expensive and sometimes impossible to acquire, the even more fundamental issue challenging many MSPs is...
“Don’t open that door!” That’s the kind of thing we might shout at a character in a horror movie when there’s a danger lurking.

Many businesses that hadn’t previously provided remote working tools for their employees have had to go for a quick fix as lockdown forced people to stay at home. The problem is that adopting ad hoc solutions risk undoing years of careful procurement and security management. This leaves your business exposed to hackers and cybercriminals who...
The gap between the business and the traditional IT department is widening.
