Your Operations Manager Won’t Be the One Getting Sued.

I was chatting with the owner of an MSP the other day when I noticed something weird. He seemed… relaxed. You know, like someone not carrying the weight of 2,500 endpoints and a 10-year liability tail on his back. So ...

Your Stack is a Joke—And Hackers Are Laughing All the Way to the Bank

Remember Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom?  Yeah, the one with booby traps around every corner. Spikes. Snakes. Fire pits. A crumbling rope bridge. Every step was unpredictable. Every move had consequences. The treasure? Locked down tighter than a ...

That Little Blinky Box? It Might Be the Hacker’s Way In. 

Let’s skip the latest noise from Wall Street for a minute. Forget the tariffs. Forget the news drama. Did you catch what CISA just dropped into the “Known Exploited Vulnerabilities” catalog? No? You should have. Because this one’s not theoretical. ...

Your Clients Aren’t Paying for Security—They’re Paying for You

Let’s get one thing straight: security is not your value proposition.  I know, that sounds insane coming from the security guy. But hear me out.  Security is table stakes. It’s the cover charge to play in this game. You can—and ...

What a weekend. It kicked off Wednesday night—alarms started screaming. Storm alert. Tornado alert. Flash flood alert. Lightning alert. More flood alerts. Nashville was lighting up. Sirens, texts from Metro, calls from the city, weather apps melting down. And somewhere ...

Why Your Engineers Aren’t Getting Certified (And How to Fix It Fast) 

Talked to an MSP last week who was frustrated.  “I just can’t get my team to go after certifications.”  So I asked, “What’s in it for them?”  He said, “Well… it’ll make them better at their jobs.”  Sure. That’s part ...

Green Checkmarks Don’t Mean You’re Safe (Just Ask the Hacker Who Got In)

I just got off the phone with an MSP owner. He was furious. And not in the “my espresso machine is broken” kind of way.  He was mad because we found stuff—real stuff—during a third-party security assessment of his client’s ...

Let me guess—you’re out there telling prospects about your EDR. Your MDR. Maybe you even toss in a fancy SOC. You know what that sounds like in 2025? A caveman grunting about his shiny new flame. Newsflash: Everyone is selling ...
