The benefits of offering managed services to health care organizations are obvious. The problem? Health care disaster recovery (DR) creates a complex web of compliance requirements that can quickly turn profitable clients into costly liabilities. Health care data breaches average $10.93 million per incident — that's more than double the cost of breaches in other industries. For MSPs serving health care clients, disaster recovery isn't just about getting systems back online.

In September 2024, SE Labs tested Acronis Extended Detection and Response (XDR) against targeted attacks based on APT29 and Scattered Spider. The test was done in parallel with SE Labs’ Q3 2024 comparative EDR test. Both tests were done using the same methodology and targeted attacks from APT29 and Scattered Spider, but the comparative test added DPRK (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea) ransomware to the evaluation.

For managed service providers (MSPs) facing numerous and mounting challenges, maintaining a robust and resilient business model is essential for survival and advancement. MSPs need to embrace strategies and tools that can help them achieve financial stability and operational efficiency. Fortunately, those strategies and tools are within the reach of MSPs of all sizes. The key is to understand and put into place best practices that will deliver benefits without causing a negative business disruption.
