That means that now, more than ever, it’s critical to be managing cash well. But crisis cash management is different than day-to-day management when profits are high and cash flow is steady. The fundamentals of managing your business don’t change during a crisis regardless of what causes that crisis. Whether the cause is a natural disaster, ransomware attack, keyman illness, or a pandemic-induced recession like COVID-19, there are real, practical, and effective ways to respond to ensure the survival of your business in the short and long term.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/4-steps-manage-your-msp-business-during-crisis/) [28 May 2020 — 3 min read ![Image 4: Backup is Dead: Acronis Cyber Protect is Here](https://staticfiles.acronis.com/images/blog-cover/bd62a55daae50fdec0d6a6b238034607.png) The 2020 MSP Cybersecurity Readiness Survey Results: Exploring Current and Planned Security Capabilities We recently shared our excitement about a new research study we commissioned that looked at the trends in managed security and backup among MSPs. That blog provided an overview of the survey’s methodology and a few preliminary data points. In this blog, we will dive into the first main section of the survey which looked at security, and we will discuss how the findings relate to the benefits provided by Acronis Cyber Platform.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/2020-msp-cybersecurity-readiness-survey-results-exploring-current-and-planned-security/) [21 May 2020 — 4 min read ![Image 5: The Post-COVID Landscape for MSPs: A Chat with Forrester’s Jay McBain](https://staticfiles.acronis.com/images/blog-cover/f62a350b7e35dfe1e3dd057a635af90b.png) The Post-COVID Landscape for MSPs: A Chat with Forrester’s Jay McBain I recently had a great conversation with Jay McBain, Principal Analyst for Channels and Partnerships at Forrester, about how the economic downturn caused by COVID-19 will affect the channel – specifically the MSP Channel. There was a lot of territory to cover: from looking at the current state of the channel to how many in the channel may (or may not) survive the economic hardship to examining the real opportunities the pandemic has created for MSPs. I’ll recap our conversation below and you can watch the full interview as well, but long story short: while many in the channel will struggle to survive, there are also tremendous opportunities ahead.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/post-covid-landscape-msps-chat-forresters-jay-mcbain/) [15 May 2020 — 5 min read ![Image 6: Announcing the Integration of Atera’s Powerful PSA and RMM Suite for MSPs with Acronis Cyber Cloud](https://staticfiles.acronis.com/images/blog-cover/74dd033305077b8ad219667201379601.png) Cyber Protection Includes Predicting Disk Drive Failures with Acronis AI While cyber protection is most frequently discussed in relation to managing and securing operating software, it can also involve managing the hardware that stores your valuable data – namely your disk drives. Because if your drive fails, any data stored on it can be lost forever. All hard drives will fail at some point. While this is particularly true of traditional, magnetic disk hard drives (a.k.a. hard disk drives or HDD), newer solid state drives (SSD) that use flash memory also face issues once their memory cells start to fail. Several factors can lead to errors in these data storage devices. For complete cyber protection, ensuring the stability and reliability of your drive is critical to safeguarding your data.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/cyber-protection-includes-predicting-disk-drive-failures-acronis-ai/) [12 May 2020 — 3 min read ![Image 7: The Secret Shortcut to a Disaster Recovery as a Service Offering](https://staticfiles.acronis.com/images/blog-cover/e44479aa9902652a121944102811a7bd.png) Announcing Acronis Cyber Platform #CyberFit Workload Bounty Program Today we are announcing the Acronis Cyber Platform #CyberFit Workload Bounty Program – an initiative centered on our commitment to provide developers, ISVs, service providers, and OEMs programs that will drive greater cyber protection across more applications and systems.

As expensive as it is to change tools, if the benefits outweighed the pain of switching, I was all over it. Today, protecting your clients from cyberthreats has become a full-time job. Exploits are created every minute of every day, making it practically impossible for most IT service providers to keep pace to counter them all.

The goal of the study was to get an up-to-date view on what cybersecurity and backup services are currently offered, what features matter most, what future plans they might have to expand their offerings, and what business, operational, and technical challenges make it harder for MSPs to execute. Naturally, we also wanted the perspective of MSPs and real data about the IT channel’s capabilities and concerns before launching Acronis Cyber Platform. It seems we’ve rolled out this new service just in time.](https://www.acronis.com/en/blog/posts/announcing-2020-msp-cybersecurity-readiness-survey-results/) [07 May 2020 — 1 min read ![Image 11: Announcing the Integration of Atera’s Powerful PSA and RMM Suite for MSPs with Acronis Cyber Cloud](https://staticfiles.acronis.com/images/blog-cover/74dd033305077b8ad219667201379601.png) Announcing the Integration of Atera’s Powerful PSA and RMM Suite for MSPs with Acronis Cyber Cloud Managed service providers (MSPs) are busier than ever. They’re responsible for managing and protecting an ever-growing amount of data, applications, and systems for their clients in locations that span the data center to remote home offices.
