Date | Available On Demand |
Duration | 60 minutes |
The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic is driving millions of knowledge workers to perform their jobs from home, signaling dramatic changes in how business is done — and triggering an unprecedented expansion of the attack surface. Ransomware strikes, already on the rise in recent years, have exploded as more and more workers migrate to home office environments, further complicating the myriad operational challenges facing cybersecurity professionals. But businesses don’t have to fight the ransomware battle alone: Managed security services providers (MSSPs) can assist their clients by deploying robust Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services optimized to prevent, detect and respond quickly to digital attacks.
Join George Mellor, Channel Futures contributor and CEO of KloudReadiness, along with Stephan Tallent, Fortinet’s Sr. Director MSSP & Service Enablement, for this comprehensive discussion of how MSSPs can augment their services portfolio with the highly profitable MDR services that today’s fast-changing marketplace demands. Topics include how to:
- Reduce and control today’s growing attack surface
- Automate real-time protection against advanced threats
- Adopt the right security framework to adapt to an evolving threat landscape
