Managed Service Providers: The Doctors and Cyber Engineers of the 21st Century
An unprecedented surge of cybercriminal activity is threatening our national and global security and economic stability. Safekeeping on the internet platform has collapsed. The present crisis in security, privacy, intellectual property and stored data is of a fundamental concern. In the next 5-10 years, a trillion sensors will be linked together as part of the “Internet of Things (IoT).”

It is critical that the executive leadership team and board are sufficiently knowledgeable, and appropriately engaged, in cyber risk management as part of an enterprise-wide strategy.
