IT security has moved to the very top of priority list for customers recently in the wake of significant high-profile security breaches. MAXFocus (formerly known as GFI MAX) told attendees at its recent MSP conferences that it would put an even greater focus on security services going forward. MSPmentor recently spoke with MAXFocus General Manager Alistair Forbes to dive deeper into the trends around IT security and how MSPs can help their customers.

Forbes told MSPmentor in this FastChat that the raised awareness and raised threat level for customers represents an increased opportunity for managed service providers who can give their customers a high level of protection and insurance against vulnerabilities and hackers.

Forbes also told MSPmentor about how MSPs can go about capturing that opportunity. Check out the video below. Also, be sure to register for the upcoming MAXfocus webinar, How to Become the Perpetually Valuable MSP!
