Cyber insurance is emerging as an add-on that provides another layer of protection to cybersecurity procedures. As demand for coverage increases, it is rapidly becoming one of the main concerns of MSPs and IT executives from businesses of all types.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month has been celebrated every October for 20 years. This initiative, promoted by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) with the support of the National Cybersecurity Alliance, aims to raise awareness of the importance of implementing a comprehensive cybersecurity system.
Password managers have become more than desirable applications for any MSP wishing to offer a secure, efficient and sophisticated service. Not only have they proven to be highly effective, but they also improve the efficiency of companies' internal processes and make life easier for users by providing them with secure login to different systems. According to a study published by Verizon, 80% of data breaches are due to stolen passwords.
MITRE ATT&CK emulates well-known threat groups inspired by publicly available threat intelligence. The evaluations do not rank vendors and their solutions; however, organizations should use them to determine which solutions best address their cybersecurity gaps, complement their existing protection implementation (network security product, existing endpoint protection solutions, etc.), and fit their business needs. The evaluation comprises two tests: Detection and prevention evaluation.
As an MSP, one of the best ways to secure your customers' devices is to deploy a layered endpoint security strategy. By following this approach, you establish a proactive posture, which helps prevent intrusion attempts and breaches, and is complemented by continuous monitoring and response capabilities to minimize the risk of incidents. This benefits your customers and helps boost their confidence in your business, enhancing your cybersecurity offering and management.
One of the most important technology trends in cybersecurity is AI (artificial intelligence). The idea behind AI in cybersecurity is to use AI-enabled software to augment human expertise by rapidly identifying zero day malware, APTs, malwareless attacks, or hacking attempts, reducing the organizations’ incident costs.
This blog is different from the ones you typically see from WatchGuard. It is because we are joining in the conversation about International Identity Day, which takes place on September 16, 2023.

In today’s threat landscape, it is essential for companies to have a good cybersecurity strategy that is supported by cyber liability insurance. The global average cost of a data breach now reaches $4.45 million, according to IBM data. However, a 2022 survey highlights that only 19% of companies state that their insurance covers more than six hundred thousand dollars.
