MSSP Alert and ChannelE2E are headed to IT Nation Connect in Orlando and Ingram Micro ONE in Washington DC starting today. Our staff will do our best to bring you the most important news as it happens at these events, and in the weeks to come we will follow up with additional coverage from these and all the other events we’ve attended in the last four weeks. It’s been busy between MSSP Alert Live, Canalys North America Forum, Kaseya DattoCon, IT Nation and Ingram Micro ONE.
We’ve covered some of these in our daily columns across both our sites, but there’s more to come.
One notable development across the board at all these events is evident -- cybersecurity has grown to be a core pillar of MSP offerings. While many MSPs partner with MSSPs or vendors to offer advanced cybersecurity services, these services have become as essential as RMM/endpoint management and as important a tool as PSA when it comes to serving MSP end customers.

5. Malware research - Cofense Intelligence’s new research highlights the risks associated with group-delivered malware and some of the top combinations of malware over the last two years. Key findings include that threat actors typically use one or more delivery mechanisms to deploy a single malware sample, as this is often sufficient to compromise a computer and potentially its network.
