security services increase value capture
Businesses Expect cyber solutions from their service providers
The need for secure technology has never been higher, and organizations expect their trusted technology advisor to make sure they are safe from the increasing risk of cyber attack.
The market for cybersecurity solutions is growing much faster than the overall IT segment. Service Providers that can Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond & Recover cyber risk are positioned to capitalize on this market need but third party solutions are expensive and costly to implement.
Using your team captures more value than outsourcing or resale
Customers are willing to absorb marginal cost increases to keep themselves safe from cyber attack if the investment makes sense, but outsourcing to dedicated MSSPs and assessment firms results in minimal value capture by an MSP.
Our platform's essential tier clearly explains to the customer where their cyber gaps are and how investment in advanced security services translates to increased protection.
By using your existing team to perform industry standard assessments and comprehensively secure systems you can establish a new category of advanced security service revenue, reduce desktop issue handling cost while protecting this new revenue from low-margin security outsourcing or resale.
