What SMBs can expect from managed IT service providers
As we break the myths of about Cybersecurity, we challenge the default thoughts business owners have about the importance of not only a solid security plan, but also systems to protect you in the event of a breach.
FACT #7 – SMBs are quick to change MSP if they think another offers better services and security. From 850 respondents to the Vanson Bourne survey, 93 percent would move provider if they offered better security solutions. And they claim they are willing for to pay 25 percent more for the right provider.
SMBs cannot afford to ignore cybersecurity
It is no secret that SMBs can no longer ignore their cybersecurity with the VIPRE report finding that 58% percent of data breaches are SMBs. And, with this mind, MSPs are increasing service levels realising it is a core function for an SMB to use their services. For to ignore the cybersecurity needs of SMBs will be at their own peril.
“58% percent of data breaches are SMBs”
So, MSPs need to offer what SMBs consider the right cybersecurity for their business. The right cybersecurity is not definable. It means something different to different businesses. But it comes down to protecting a business from end-to-end.
Endpoint security is no longer adequate
Gone are the days where antivirus and endpoint security are adequate for protecting sensitive, business critical data. With hackers improving their techniques daily, cyberattacks become more sophisticated. Hackers use machine learning and artificial intelligence to automate much of the work to speed up their attack cycles. These new technologies discover system vulnerabilities quicker and exploit them to cause maximum damage while flying under the radar of conventional prevention methods.
