6 reasons to choose a managed security service provider

This is why system houses outsource IT security to managed security service providers: an experienced partner is always up to date, reduces the workload on your own employees, proactively counters cyber attacks by finding and closing security gaps, and generates regular additional income without any extra effort.

1) Costs and efficiency: Instead of having to find new staff or train their own personnel at great expense, the MSSP manages the IT security of its customers in the background as an IT security specialist. This saves system houses the costs and time that would be incurred in setting up a team of experts.

2) Time to focus on the business: A managed security service provider gives system houses time to focus on their own core competencies. A good managed security service provider is like a permanent employee who ensures the IT security of customers around the clock.

3) Customer support: Advanced UTM solutions from an MSSP include free managed service, configuration, installation, 24/7 monitoring, direct support with short response times, real-time updates, consulting and reports.

4) Compliance: Managed security service providers are familiar with all regulatory compliance and GDPR requirements. Their IT security solutions are certified and always up to date. The managed security service provider takes care of all this automatically in the background.

5) IT protection for hire: A good MSSP offers security solutions for companies of all sizes – including on a monthly hire basis. Without investment costs and with attractive margins.

6) Security awareness: With e-learning, training courses and phishing campaigns, the MSSP sensitises the customer’s employees to the correct handling of emails and confidential data, establishes IT guidelines and develops holistic IT security concepts.
