In today’s interconnected technology ecosystem, companies increasingly rely on third-party vendors to meet their operational needs. However, the current state of vendor risk management (VRM) is bleak. More than half of all information security breaches are caused by third-party vendors, and according to Deloitte, 83% of today’s business leaders lack confidence in third-party VRM processes. Understanding and managing cyber risk posed by vendors, suppliers, and third parties has proven to be a difficult task. The right mix of people, processes, and technology result in the most effective and comprehensive program.

A new year brings new threats, new exploits—and new MSP opportunities in cybersecurity. Understanding global technology trends and cyberthreats like ransomware can help you successfully deliver security as a service to your clients. Auvik AVP of product management Patrick Albert talks with Tayler Feigl, Channel Development Manager, APAC at Datto to discuss key findings in Datto’s annual State of the Channel Ransomware Report, the result of interviewing 100,000 small to mid-sized business (SMBs) around the globe. You’ll hear what your MSP peers are doing to prepare, protect, and recover against ransomware, and investigate how you can use these findings to sell cybersecurity as part of your managed services offering.

Once a vulnerability becomes known to cybercriminals, the race is on for vendors to create a patch before it is exploited. And with the regular use of exploits in attacks and threats like the WannaCry ransomware using a vulnerability, getting the win has never been so crucial. This month we will cover the bug bounty marketplace, including the different types of markets available to vulnerability researchers. As well, we will review Trend Micro Research and how their research can benefit organizations through responsible disclosure and pre-disclosed filters to virtually patch vulnerabilities.
