Cybersecurity Preparedness 2024 By Chris Leach, Board Advisor for Judy Security The new year is just around the corner. We have had a great Thanksgiving meal and soon our thoughts will turn to what is to be accomplished in 2024. Many businesses will start the year off with optimism while many new businesses will be looking for a way to get a leg up on the competition. In an increasingly digital world, small and medium-size businesses (SMBs) have become prime targets for cybercriminals. With the rapid advancement of technology and the growing reliance on digital infrastructure, the need for robust cybersecurity measures has never been more critical. As we enter a new year, SMBs must prioritize cybersecurity to safeguard their sensitive data, protect their customers, and ensure the continuity of their operations. This presents you, the Managed Service Provider (MSP), an ideal opportunity the onboard new customers or strengthen your relationship with your current customers – perhaps you are a small or medium sized business yourself! So, what should the MSP be aware of in 2024 as it relates to cybersecurity, so you are better prepared to work with your current and future customers? First let’s look at the overall cybersecurity space. There is a tremendous lack of expertise. According to a report issued by (ISC) 2 , there is a global shortage of cybersecurity professionals of over 3.12 million and this number is growing. Most of the available processionals come at a high price often out of reach of the typical business. The turnover of these professionals is high as they are often lured into moving to another company for higher pay and benefits.
