Security is no longer as simple as setting up a firewall, creating white/black lists and letting the good times roll. The cloud offers opportunity, both good and bad, so if data, application and network security are important to your firm, it’s time to explore a Zero Trust framework, and revisit identity and access protocols. SASE leaders lend insight into the new perimeter, and security best practice for this brave new world.

SASE isn’t as simple as saying, “sign me up!”Organizations are burdened by siloed applications, limited skills and existing investments that can result in inconsistent architecture and insufficient security strategy. Each SASE service provider will tout best in breed, comprehensive solutions, but how does IT ensure the firm is set up for success? Join us to learn from the experts.

While SASE continues its surge SD-WAN remains a critical component of digital transformation. From ensuring QoS in communications, to constructing a cloud onramp and promising the reliable, secure connectivity demanded in the digital age, SD-WAN isn’t going anywhere. Industry leaders will explore this and more during the panel conversation.

Here we are. We’ve embraced the cloud, allowed the workforce to work from anywhere on any device and are reliant on the convergence of network and security functions to propel productivity and keep critical assets safe. Is SASE an endgame? What lies ahead for the SASE space? Are there complete SASE offerings available?

There’s a lot that goes into being a security provider for businesses. It starts with a security-first mindset. You can sell all the other services you offer, but if you fail on the security front, it’s all for naught and you have lost your customers’ trust – and likely revenue. This session will discuss the how the security threat landscape continues to evolve and how MSPs can adopt a security-first mentality to support their clients and enjoy a potentially lucrative recurring revenue stream.

Everyone knows how quickly ransomware has become a major problem and the impact it can have on business operations. New threat variants and tools continue to emerge, while new work models increase risk. At the same time, employees and IT teams feel overwhelmed by the need to constantly focus on security. It’s time for MSPs to step up and help businesses solve the ransomware dilemma. This session will discuss the latest trends in ransomware attacks, the repercussions to both MSPs and their clients in the wake of successful ransomware attacks, why such attacks have been successful, the obligations and opportunities MSPs have in protecting their clients, and what MSPs need to do to be successful in the fight against bad actors looking to get rich through ransomware.

The business world has changed. New workforce models capitalizing on a broad range of technologies are being leveraged to support the new places, times, and ways people work. What hasn’t changed is the continued growth of cyber attacks. In fact, throughout the pandemic, attack volumes only increased as hackers realized new workforce models created many new opportunities to breach corporate networks. This session is all about the new world of work and how MSPs can help support their customers’ new work models by providing maximum levels of security to ward of threats, wherever they may come from.

Security threats continue to evolve. Business approaches to managing security must evolve accordingly. This session looks at how cyber security has changed over the past two years as new work models have become a standard. How does BYOD expanding an organization’s threat perimeter? Why does dark web monitoring matter to MSPs? How can well-rounded MSP offerings can create a more secure and more effective remote work environment for their clients? How can MSPs take a more consultative approach to benefit their clients (and their own revenue streams)?

“Set it and forget it” security solutions don't work today – if they ever really did. Cybercriminals work day and night, finding creative ways to compromise systems and steal data. As an MSP, you need to be vigilant 24/7, detecting and remediating ever-changing threats. What if security expertise is not in your wheelhouse? How do you know you are leveraging best-of-breed solutions? What do you do with all the data? This session will help MSPs understand how to tackle these hard business challenges and successfully build cybersecurity programs.

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses struggled with managing cybersecurity and compliance mandates and issues. New remote and hybrid models have further complicated the situation and introduced new security and compliance risks. At the same time, with cyber attacks on the rise, protecting data is more important than ever. It presents a huge opportunity for MSPs, who are already trusted to manage their clients’ IT. Security and compliance are a natural extension and can increase the value of the trusted relationships between MSPs and their clients. But, it requires MSPs to understand compliance requirements in order to deliver that trust effectively and create long-term value. This session will help MSPs capitalize on the compliance and security needs to expand relationships with existing clients and generate new business. The session will discuss new and emerging compliance requirements and standards, the connection between security and data privacy, effective vendor cyber risk evaluation, and how to integrate compliance and security into a comprehensive service portfolio.

It’s one thing to be able to identify cyber attacks. It’s something different to be able to actively – and even proactively – respond to them and avoid business disruption and compromised data. With many new data regulations already in place – and more likely to come – not to mention the sheer volume and scale of cyber threats, businesses need to have security solutions that go beyond merely indentifying breaches. They need more modern, more comprehensive security strategies. That’s where MDR (Managed Detection and Response) offers a path for MSPs to deliver better and more holistic threat mitigation solution across their customers’ various attack surfaces, and increase confidence their customers’ assets remain safe and secure. This session will discuss why MDR is the next generation of security services and how MSPs can build MDR into their offerings.

The Zero Trust concept is founded on a “trust nothing and verify everything” principle. It effectively takes security down to the lowest common denominator, assuming everything poses a risk, until verification it does not. As IT environments continue to change, a Zero Trust strategy not only helps secure corporate networks today, but also extends the same level of protection to new attack surfaces as they emerge. It’s not a new strategy, but it has become a major opportunity between constantly reported breaches and the emergence of new IT and work models that increase risk exposure. The increased focus on Zero Trust is an opportunity for MSPs; this session will explain that opportunity and what MSPs need to know to turn it into a differentiator and a revenue stream.

Having an effective security solution in place is one thing. Having the resources to manage holistic security for customers in the wake of constant threats is something else. Just as their clients don’t have the resources to effectively manage security, most MSPs don’t have the resources to build and manage a full 24x7 Security Operations Center (SOC). By moving to a SOC-as-a-Service or Managed SOC strategy, MSPs and their clients can rest more easily with the confidence that their entire IT environments are constantly being monitored and managed by security experts with that as their singular focus. In this session, MSPs will understand why a SOC-as-a-Service will help them deliver better security services and expand their capabilities more efficiently and cost effectively than trying to do everything on their own.
