Twenty of 27 EU member states had transposed the NIS2 Directive into national law by January 2026 (Wavestone, NIS2 transposition status, 2026). The remaining seven are under formal infringement proceedings from the European Commission. If you run an MSP serving health care clients in the European Union, NIS2 compliance is no longer a regulatory horizon problem. It is the operating environment.

Telecommunications providers already play a central role in the cloud economy. They own the networks businesses use to reach cloud services. They operate data centers, regional points of presence, edge locations, support teams and enterprise client relationships. In many markets, they are also trusted local infrastructure providers for businesses, governments and critical services. For years, much of that infrastructure was used to connect clients to someone else’s cloud. That is starting to change.

VMware migration has become a strategic priority for many managed service providers (MSPs), cloud service providers (CSPs) and hosters. After years of relying on VMware as the foundation for virtualization and hosting services, many providers are reassessing their infrastructure strategy. Licensing changes, cost pressure, uncertainty around partner programs and customer demand for more predictable infrastructure services are pushing providers to evaluate their options.

How OT teams can run safe, OEM-validated patch management on operating systems Microsoft no longer supports. For plant security leads, OT engineers and industrial CISOs. Industrial patch management is the practice of identifying, validating and applying security patches to PC-based assets in industrial environments: HMI workstations, SCADA servers, engineering workstations and historians.

Cyber resilience depends on more than the strength of individual tools. IT teams need backup, recovery, security, endpoint management and automation to work together with shared context, consistent policy enforcement and reduced operational gaps. Acronis Cyber Protect v17 2026 Q2 continues that approach with new capabilities that expand protection coverage, improve security visibility, accelerate recovery and reduce administrative effort from a single integrated platform.

AWS has become a default infrastructure platform for many organizations. It offers scale, flexibility and a broad service portfolio. However, for managed service providers (MSPs) and cloud providers, AWS pricing can be difficult to explain, forecast and package profitably. One of the most important cost factors is AWS data transfer cost. Internet egress, or data leaving AWS for the public internet, is the most familiar example.

Attackers have long focused on email and endpoints, but now they are increasingly targeting the identity layer that controls access to those resources. The new approach is subversive and highly effective: By compromising identities, threat actors can gain access to Microsoft 365, SaaS applications, devices and administrative functions without tripping the same alarms that traditional attacks trigger.
