Cyber Insurance Missteps Into Managed Services

Cyber insurance has become critically important to our modern business operations. For MSPs, the role of cyber insurance is especially important, both because of the protection it affords the MSP, but also for the protection it offers customers of the MSP.

- What are the legal and business risks associated with giving insurance underwriters access to your clients?
- Do cyber insurance brokers have a better understanding of IT managed services best practices than the MSPs themselves?
