Top MSP cybersecurity challenges

Ransomware
Vulnerabilities
Defense evasion
Drive-by compromise
Malicious use of AI

Ransomware: The elephant in the room

Ransomware continues to be one of the most impactful cybersecurity threats. For threat actors, it’s an easy, fast, and low-risk technique that quickly meets their goals for large business disruption and a big payday.

Vulnerabilities: There’s a patch for that

Threat actors frequently target unpatched software, misconfigured systems, and known weaknesses in widely used technologies to capitalize on opportunities to gain unauthorized access and disrupt operations.

Penetration testing vs vulnerability scanning >>

Defense evasion: The thief in the night

Threat actors are increasing their focus on defense evasion stealth tactics to avoid detection, specifically trying to bypass EDR with a rise in the use of “EDR killers.” This highlights the need for a layered cybersecurity approach.

More on improving your defense

How EDR, SIEM, and SOC work together>>

SIEM vs EDR >>

Drive-by compromise

The drive-by compromise technique comprises several different attack methods that all hinge on a victim coming across the attack during their regular web browsing activities. We suggest the use of an ad blocker as a security necessity.

Understanding drive-by compromise >>

Malicious use of AI: The new kid on the block

Malicious groups can use to generate convincing deepfake content, automate and enhance phishing attacks, and develop sophisticated malware, which makes them more difficult to detect. However, AI also plays a crucial role in MSPs’ defense against cyberthreats.
