Steven Brining, cybersecurity evangelist at Acronis

The only thing that stays the same in the security world is that it’s constantly changing, and attack vectors are always evolving. Whether it’s the number of email phishing attacks skyrocketing or the emergence of new ways of attacking unexpecting users through QR codes, MSPs are well-served to keep their heads on a swivel for what’s next.

In this edition of the podcast, Steve Brining, cybersecurity evangelist at Acronis, joins us to discuss the findings of their first-half study of the attacks they’re seeing in the wild and focus on what MSPs need to know about the state of security today.

We discuss:

the top cybersecurity threats and trends of the first half of the year, as applied to managed service providers’ businesses;
the top three targeted countries, which weren’t what you’d think of;
the rise of publicly reported ransomware attacks;
the role of artificial intelligence in attacks;
the massive growth in email-based attacks;
top vectors for attacks on MSPs;
the benefits of a zero-trust architecture for MSPs;
how MSPs can keep themselves and their customers safe now and into the future, and
the rise of “quishing” as an attack vector.

All this and much more are in this edition of the ChannelBuzz.ca Podcast.
