In the ever-evolving digital landscape, where technology advancements are both a boon and a bane, the significance of robust cybersecurity measures cannot be overstated. Over the past 5–10 years, the cybersecurity paradigm has undergone a seismic shift, driven by technological advancements, an uptick in cyberthreats and a heightened awareness of the critical role played by managed service providers (MSPs).

Last year, MSP Academy was launched by Acronis to assist MSPs in growing their organizations with business and technical training. Now, with the introduction of 19 new modules and over 100 videos, MSPs have the opportunity to elevate their businesses and gain the knowledge and skills they need to thrive. These modules cover various topics, including managed services, cybersecurity and marketing.

When you boot a computer with both the original and cloned drives connected, the system BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) or UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) performs the Power-On Self-Test (POST) to initialize hardware and then proceeds to load the boot loader.

The majority of MSPs grapple with talent shortages and an IT skills gap. It’s an ongoing challenge to ensure the most highly skilled and specialized technicians are available to focus on the most critical issues. Here, we uncover the top reasons MSP technicians experience burnout, the role of modern endpoint management solutions in improving efficiency, and the Acronis solution for optimizing MSP business operations.
