The recent Ingram Micro incident is a wake-up call for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to strengthen their cybersecurity posture and vendor risk management practices. With supply chain attacks and VPN vulnerabilities on the rise, MSPs must assume compromise is inevitable and focus on resilience, clear communication strategies, and proactive defenses. Frameworks like ISO 27001 offer a proven roadmap for building credibility, improving security controls, and meeting growing client demands. By conducting gap assessments, implementing Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), and adopting a culture of continuous improvement, MSPs can stay ahead of evolving threats, reduce risk, and position themselves as trusted security leaders.
