MSPs, Cyber Resilience, & the Human Side of Security w/James McMillan - The 443 Pod - Episode 370

Marc Laliberte and Corey Nachreiner recorded a special episode from WatchGuard’s EMEA Partner Conference in Dubrovnik, Croatia, featuring James McMillan, CTO of Redinet Limited. They discussed the evolving cybersecurity landscape for MSPs and businesses across Europe. James shares insights from his journey in IT and cybersecurity, the growing challenges organizations face as threats become more sophisticated, and why cyber resilience requires more than just technology.

New MSP capabilities for simpler client onboarding and stronger control

Setting up and managing client environments often involves repetitive, manual work. Each new managed company requires policy setup, access configuration, and ongoing oversight. Repeating this across environments slows onboarding, introduces inconsistencies, and makes it harder to maintain control.

Why WatchGuard Acquired Perimeters.io: Making Cloud Security Work for MSPs

If you ask any MSP what they use to protect their clients’ cloud environments, you will get one of two answers. Either they’ll point to the native security tools built into platforms like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. Or they’ll describe a patchwork of different products stitched together to cover identity, configuration, and SaaS visibility. Neither approach is ideal. But both reflect the reality MSPs are working with today.

How Acronis and Lansweeper help MSPs detect, protect and grow

MSPs are managing more assets than ever before and often without a complete picture of what’s actually in their clients’ environments. Every unmanaged device, every unknown application, every blind spot increases exposure and limits how quickly teams can respond. The reality is simple: Asset visibility is the foundation of cybersecurity, resilience and growth. But visibility without action leaves MSPs stuck reacting instead of proactively protecting.

Microsoft 365 posture gaps are attack paths MSPs need to close now

Author: Umair Ahmed, Product Marketing Manager, Security Microsoft 365 attacks do not always start with a dramatic zero-day. Many begin with something simpler: a stolen password, a malicious Office file, a user approving the wrong application, or a tenant setting that was left too permissive. For an MSP technician, the urgent question is: Even if Microsoft patched the vulnerabilities inside the platform, are my tenant configurations still exposing my clients to risk?

Beyond the Firewall: Growing Your MSP with NDR

A firewall is essential, but it’s no longer enough. Today’s attackers slip past perimeter controls, hide in encrypted traffic, and move fast once they get inside. Network Detection and Response (NDR) delivers always-on network visibility, earlier threat detection, and faster response, enabling you to see and stop what firewalls miss.

From Alerts to Action: Automating MSP Security

MSPs today face growing security demands alongside increasing operational complexity. Disconnected tools and manual processes create noise, slow response times, and limit scalability. The solution? Automation and integration. By connecting security platforms with PSA and RMM tools, MSPs can streamline workflows, reduce alert fatigue, and improve service delivery, turning reactive processes into proactive, efficient operations.

Why MSP Solutions Are Essential for Modern IT Services and Business Growth

In today's digital-first environment, businesses rely heavily on stable and efficient Managed IT Services and IT Support to manage daily operations. Whether it's communication systems, customer databases, or internal workflows, everything depends on technology working without interruption. Even a small issue can slow down productivity and affect overall performance. This is one of the main reasons companies are increasingly turning to an IT Services Company to manage their IT needs in a more reliable and proactive way.
