A NYC area IT consultant discusses four ways that using a managed services provider (MSP) improve business cyber security in a new article on the eMazzanti Technologies website. The informative article first reviews the “perfect storm” of 2020 cyber security threats.

The author then discusses the cyber security skills shortage and the advantage of working with an MSP to access them. He cites proactive, 24/7 monitoring and vulnerability identification and remediation as services that strengthen cyber security. He concludes by describing how user education overcomes the weakest link in data security.

“Remote work expands the attack surface and cyber-criminals grow increasingly sophisticated,” stated Almi Dumi, CISO, eMazzanti Technologies. “Fortunately, managed services improve cyber security in several critical areas.”

Below are a few excerpts from the article, “4 Ways Managed Services Improve Cyber Security.”

Expertise at Your Fingertips

“In late 2019, (ISC)2, a major nonprofit organization of cyber security professionals, conducted a study of the cyber security workforce. The study showed that the skills gap continues to widen. In fact, to adequately meet the data security needs of American organizations, the cyber security workforce would need to increase by 62 percent.”

Proactive, 24/7 Monitoring

“Another significant way that managed services improve cyber security involves system monitoring. A reputable MSP will provide monitoring not just during business hours, but 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Using machine learning, for instance, your MSP can identify unusual activity and proactively address issues even before a breach occurs.”

Vulnerability Identification and Remediation

“The MSP typically conducts risk assessments to determine the state of your organization’s cyber security and make recommendations. In the process, they will likely conduct vulnerability scans and penetration testing.”
