Tired of MSSPs ‘Failing,’ Nuspire Debuts Platform to Combat Cyberattacks

  • Written by Craig Galbraith
  • May 17, 2021
Find out what myNuspire does and whether fellow MSSPs will be able to use it.

The number, frequency and intensity of cyberattacks in 2021 all continue to mount. This month alone, end users and their managed security service providers have dealt with at least three: FragAttacks, Darkside and crippling ransomware.

And by “dealt with,” we really mean “reacted to.”

Most organizations lack the tools and skilled IT teams to stay ahead of bad actors. They end up scrambling to shore up the gaps and pick up the pieces after a hit.

Lewie Dunsworth has had enough of reacting. Over the last six months (timing that appears to coincide with the giant Solarwinds breach), he and his team developed a platform that brings together all of an organization’s cybersecurity tools. It also delivers threat intelligence.

Nuspire’s Lewie Dunsworth

“Frankly, I was tired of the industry failing its clients,” Dunsworth, CEO of Michigan-based MSSP Nuspire, told Channel Futures. “I’ve walked in our clients’ shoes as a former CISO. Being in security leadership is not for the faint of heart and we owe it to our clients, and the rest of the industry, to make their job easier.”

Nuspire’s New Solution

On Monday, Nuspire debuted myNuspire, a technology-agnostic, customizable security operating system. The platform consolidates an organization’s cybersecurity technology stack into one place for holistic visibility. That’s a vital component given Gartner’s estimate that 78% or organizations use more than 16 cybersecurity resources and 12% rely on more than 46.

Here’s our most recent list of new products and services that agents, VARs, MSPs and other partners offer.

With that in mind, myNuspire combines cybersecurity solutions into a single repository. CISOs no longer have to click through each brand separately or attend to multiple, disparate alerts.

myNuspire also features on-demand threat intelligence and gap identification. The former provides actionable modeling information on cybersecurity attacks by industry and size. The latter helps users understand whether technology is operating correctly and where investments lead to the best returns.

“I knew there had to be a better way to manage and improve security programs,” Dunsworth said. “So, we looked at ourselves, and the industry, and were brutally honest about areas for improvement. That created a vision for myNuspire.”

Building myNuspire

Dunsworth said his company built myNuspire on modern technologies with a modular approach. That, he said, “allows us to always be relevant, maximize the power of cloud-based capabilities and use new processes that allow us to dynamically improve and enhance the features based on our client’s needs.”

To be sure, not only did Nuspire aim to give organizations better cybersecurity tools, the MSSP wanted to reduce CISOs’ stress. Most CISOs stay at one job anywhere between 18 months and two years. The level of responsibility, defined by chaos and ever-changing conditions, tends to lead to …
