One week until ChannelCon and MSP-Ignite Pre-day. This week we have Dave Sobel, "Host of the Business of Tech Podcast." While Dave and I have been known to go down a few rabbit holes in past conversations, we manage in this episode to focus on three main points: Cyber Tax is a real thing and should be openly discussed with your clients, Tech Debt is a challenge for both vendors and MSPs, and victim blaming doesn't change what has happened. --- Support this podcast:

With the theme of, "Doing the right thing," on our show I had the unique opportunity to sit down with Harry Brelsford to talk about the need for cybersecurity in the Cannabis dispensary vertical. While this is a very specific niche and is definitely not as mature as many other verticals it was an eye opener for me and I hope you will find opportunity for strength and maturity in cybersecurity. Harry very neatly breaks down security into three categories that really helps give perspective on areas to

2022/06/28

As we continue our discussion around "Doing the right thing", I sit down with Eric Hanson of Inland Productivity to specifically discuss 2FA.

Almost A Victim...

When doing the right thing could have turned out so different. I sit down with Jessica Millhiser of Systems Gal to discuss a recent event with one of her clients that could have turned out very differently. Business Operations is her specialty and what we found in our conversation is that if you aren't weaving cybersecurity into your business processes you are just asking for a breach. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/msp1337/support

Do The Right Thing (see something, say something.)

2022/06/08

When you travel, especially when you fly, you see the statement plastered everywhere, "If you see something say something." You are told not to watch someone else's bags etc. Well, when it comes to cybersecurity is it really any different? Eric Hanson and I go through an exercise that looks at this concept applied to cybersecurity. Inconvenience, obstacles, or other anomalies if ignored allow us to continue to be efficient and get our jobs done. How do we balance and appropriately call out concerns

Is Affordable Cybersecurity a Myth?

MSP 1337 ·

2022/05/31

I have often wondered if we tend to lean towards insurance instead of doing a better job of prevention and protection because it just costs too much. I sit down with Ismael (Izzy) Amado of IT Ninjas to prove how affordable much of cybersecurity really is. Culture change is hard but at the root of cybersecurity, success is people and process. If you are struggling with getting clients or your own employees to take cybersecurity seriously then this episode might just help you push through. ---

I'm Responsible For What?

MSP 1337 ·

2022/05/17

Ever had a client say, "I thought you were already doing that?" I recently had a challenge with a vendor product that I had provided an audit for the client to check the security controls and ensure the client had it optimized. The questions I ask Jim Harryman of Kinetic Technology Group are all around how to clearly understand what we are responsible for whether it is with our vendors or clients. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/msp1337/support

As MSPs you are all dealing with managing or providing support services that involve working with 3rd party vendors.

Cybersecurity: I'm Stuck

2022/04/12

We all struggle with different areas of cybersecurity and there is no perfect solution. That being said we shouldn't get paralysis analysis either, it isn't new and it isn't going away. Most of us started implementing cybersecurity tools and services long before MSSPs existed and have in many cases satisfying controls of the different frameworks anywhere from 10% to 60% and didn't even know it.
