[90] How to Navigate the Scary World of MSP Cybersecurity

In this episode of TubbTalk, Richard talks to Ian Thornton-Trump, expert in cybersecurity and chief security officer of Cyjax, a threat intelligence and cyber security company.

They discuss how MSPs can keep their clients, and why many MSPs fail at security before an attack even happens – and what to do about that. Ian explains the concept of trusted advisor as a service and the importance of keeping up to date with technology.

They also talk about why you need to communicate the importance of security to clients, and what to do if they won’t help themselves. Ian discusses the merits of being agile and resilient, and shares what’s in his current security stack for personal use.
