MSPs, are you using compliance confidence as a practice differentiator? Samuel Daigle at Kennebunk Cyber Systems and Beachhead's own Cam Roberson talk with Channel Mastered's MSP Chat about an important MSP differentiator: executing a best-practice cybersecurity strategy that matches up to evolving compliance regulations. Sam: "Almost every single client I've ever worked with has three different problem statements that we try to tackle: 1) What is your real-world risk? 2) From an IT / security perspective, what is a blocker to revenue? 3) How are you *demonstrating* that you are doing what you need to do for compliance? If I can answer these three things, then I can probably answer any questions for any specific compliance regulation." Excellent insights from Sam, watch the excerpt ⬇ https://lnkd.in/gFsJAKiH
