The Role of Threat Intelligence in Cyber Resilience

When it comes to larger or more complex organizations, managing cyber security risks requires a more intensive approach than implementing basic security protection. Embedding risk-based security controls, managing the security of supply chains, and carrying out regular audits are some of the many measures an organization may need to take to manage and reduce risk.

Ransomware has wreaked havoc on many organizations, causing financial losses, reputation damage, temporary or permanent loss of sensitive or proprietary information, and the list goes on. And as if that isn’t enough, the actors behind this threat have constantly changed their tactics and who they target—making security that much trickier.

It has become an established fact that the human factor is the most important element to secure in any organization if security is to be maintained. This case study will take real-life examples (with no names used!) and examine some actual security incidents caused by human error and elaborate on the root cause and prevention tips resulting from these events.

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.
