Written by Rich Pasewark - CEO, Board Director | Sep 6, 2024 6:28:00 PM

The landscape of cybersecurity is evolving rapidly, and with it, the responsibilities of Managed Service Providers (MSPs) are becoming increasingly complex.

As small to mid-sized businesses (SMBs) and mid-tier enterprises grapple with an increasingly complex IT environment and expanded attack surface, they are turning to MSPs for security solutions that are not only robust but also cost-effective. 

However, delivering these advanced cybersecurity services without adding complexity or escalating costs is no easy feat. This is where Extended Detection and Response (XDR) comes into play, offering MSPs a powerful tool to meet these challenges head-on.

In this blog post we explore the mounting pressures facing MSPs, how XDR can help them to meet the growing expectations of IT customers, while also reducing the cost and complexity of delivering a comprehensive cybersecurity solution.

The pressure on MSPs to deliver comprehensive cybersecurity

Today, MSPs are under immense pressure to deliver comprehensive security solutions that can keep pace with the evolving threat landscape. Customers expect 24/7 protection, real-time visibility into their networks, and proactive threat detection—all without the overhead of managing multiple, disparate security tools. 

The stakes are high, with cyber threats becoming more sophisticated and frequent, impacting industries as diverse as education, healthcare, finance, government, and manufacturing. Now more than ever MSPs are turning to XDR partners, like UncommonX, to address this growing risk to customers.
