COMPANY NEWS: Perch Security, a
ConnectWise solution, today announced the release of its 2021 Perch MSP Threat Report.
In its second edition, the report includes an analysis of major MSP-related security events and trends from 2020 and Perch’s top predictions for 2021, including the first moves by government and/or insurance providers to begin regulating the MSP industry.
The report contains contributions from MSPs, partners, and security experts. Every prediction Perch made in its 2020 report ended up coming true.
In addition to the prediction about MSP regulation, Perch makes two other predictions for 2021: that attackers will begin exploiting MSPs’ reliance upon, and lack of understanding of the cloud; and that cyber extortion will vastly increase the costs and time to recover from breaches.
