Why WatchGuard Acquired Perimeters.io: Making Cloud Security Work for MSPs

If you ask any MSP what they use to protect their clients’ cloud environments, you will get one of two answers. Either they’ll point to the native security tools built into platforms like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. Or they’ll describe a patchwork of different products stitched together to cover identity, configuration, and SaaS visibility. Neither approach is ideal. But both reflect the reality MSPs are working with today.

You Wouldn't Download a Shipment - The 443 Podcast - Episode 369

This week on the podcast, we discuss a recent warning from the FBI about hacking leading to stolen shipments. Before that, we cover the Vercel software supply chain incident before discussing the Vect Ransomware-as-a-service turned accidental wiper.

NIS2 Fines Are on the Horizon: Why Your Business Can't Wait

The NIS2 Directive has officially shifted from being a conversation for the future to an operational reality across Europe. Regulators are now activating mandatory registries, launching process supervision, and most importantly, laying the groundwork for enforcement actions against non-compliant organizations. For many companies, this is the period of highest risk. What was previously perceived as a complex or distant requirement now has a direct impact on the business.

Beyond the Firewall: Growing Your MSP with NDR

A firewall is essential, but it’s no longer enough. Today’s attackers slip past perimeter controls, hide in encrypted traffic, and move fast once they get inside. Network Detection and Response (NDR) delivers always-on network visibility, earlier threat detection, and faster response, enabling you to see and stop what firewalls miss.

From Alerts to Action: Automating MSP Security

MSPs today face growing security demands alongside increasing operational complexity. Disconnected tools and manual processes create noise, slow response times, and limit scalability. The solution? Automation and integration. By connecting security platforms with PSA and RMM tools, MSPs can streamline workflows, reduce alert fatigue, and improve service delivery, turning reactive processes into proactive, efficient operations.

SMB Risks, AI, and Regional Realities with Paul Harris - The 443 Podcast - Episode 368

Stop Guessing: How to Define a Clear, Scalable Pricing Model for MDR Services

Many managed service providers (MSPs) recognize the value of managed detection and response (MDR) services, both for their clients and for their own business. However, they run into a recurring obstacle that slows adoption: how to structure a pricing model that is clear, sustainable, and scalable.

How to Choose an XDR: The Value of Integration vs. Complexity

The extended detection and response (XDR) market has evolved rapidly in recent years. What once seemed like a race to add new features is now giving way to a different debate: how to effectively integrate the different security layers that make up modern infrastructure. With increasingly distributed IT environments, including endpoints, identities, networks, and cloud applications, the volume of security signals that need to be analyzed to detect threats has multiplied.
