The Importance of Building MSSP and Business Simultaneously
It is crucial for small businesses to build their Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) and their business concurrently. This approach allows them to learn, grow, and protect their assets at the same time. The focus should be on accompanying customers and ensuring their protection is at the required level without going overboard. Small businesses often perceive cybersecurity as a distant concern, as they see high-profile breaches affecting larger companies. However, they are vulnerable and need to be proactive in their security efforts. By working with an MSSP that acts as a partner and advisor, small businesses can navigate security challenges effectively.
