Ransomware attacks are one of the greatest threats facing SMBs today. According to a May 2021 warning from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, 50 to 70 percent of ransomware attacks are aimed at SMBs, and smaller organizations struggle to resume regular business operations after such catastrophic events occur. MSPs are a trusted advisor to SMBs, providing robust state-of-the-art security without the overhead of self-management. By adding Zero Trust Segmentation from Illumio, MSPs are better prepared to help their customers stop breaches and ransomware from spreading into cyber disasters.

“We’ve seen a dramatic uptick in devastating ransomware attacks over the last few years, and one successful attack can bring operations to a complete standstill at smaller organizations,” said John Ryan, Vice President of Americas Channel Sales, Illumio. “This is why working with MSPs, who play a critical role in protecting the commercial market, is so important for Illumio. Mid-market companies shouldn’t have to compromise on the quality of protection they adopt. Zero Trust Segmentation is a surging, growing market and, with Illumio, organizations can effectively prevent breaches from spreading into cyber disasters.”
