Selling CyberSecurity as a System
Many MSPs will include “AV” as a checkbox under the base agreement to offer “security.” However, traditional low-cost AV solutions no longer fill the security need of businesses. It’s a well-documented fact that most customers that suffer a breach have a difficult time recovering, or end up paying significant ransom to decrypt their files. When offering security, MSPs need to take a more holistic all-in approach, and offer CyberSecurity as a System, removing the basic security components from the base agreement and charging a premium agreement, whether standard or advanced, at a 50% or 100% premium above their existing base agreement. The cost justification is simple: To deliver a top-notch security offering, more sophisticated technicians are required, additional training and certification are prerequisites, and knowledge of deployment, configuration and management must be mastered.
