Managed service providers (MSPs) are an attractive target for cybercriminals because of the large amount of sensitive data they handle and their access to their customers' critical infrastructure. A recent survey revealed that 78% of MSPs consider cybersecurity to be their biggest challenge, which has risen considerably from 67% last year. This trend highlights how important it is for MSPs to invest in innovative cybersecurity solutions and train skilled personnel to protect against new threats.

Cyberattacks on large companies grab the headlines, creating the false impression that only big organizations are targeted by cybercriminals. This misleads smaller companies into believing that they are not potential targets because of their size or low profile. However, threats against small and medium-sized companies have been a cause for concern in recent years. Experts warn that companies with fewer than 100 employees are especially vulnerable to a range of threats.

Modern zero trust is an information security model that denies users and devices access to applications, data, networks, and workloads by default. One of the optimal ways to help reduce credential-based attacks with applications is to leverage single sign-on (SSO) as part of your access management strategy. SSO combines simplicity with security by removing friction for users to access applications and reducing the administrative overhead and risks for IT associated with password management.
