Enterprises today face a broad array of challenges as they navigate hybrid workspaces and an increasing reliance on digital platforms. New innovations are emerging daily to create rich virtual experiences for workers, customers, and partners. In fact, Gartner projects a $20B increase in SaaS spend for 2021 and 2022. With that, security has never been more crucial. For resellers, there are huge opportunities to lead the way in secure, cloud-based digital transformation.
An Urgent Need
To date this year, there have been nearly three million ransomware attacks. Not only that, the number of supply-chain assaults has spiked fourfold. As businesses scramble to clean up the mess of broken supply chains, they’re leaning hard on CRM, ERP, and other critical SaaS platforms. All of this leads to a big challenge for IT.
Tasked with managing and monitoring users, data access, operations, and security throughout the tech stack, IT teams have a lot of ground to cover. But there’s also good news: Amid the soaring rate of cybercrime, innovation in the security space is at an all-time high. In fact, security companies have received nearly $12 billion in VC funding in 2021, according to a recent article by TechCrunch. That ups the ante for resellers to study the array of security offerings to be able to separate the wheat from the chaff.
For resellers who understand the evolving complexities—and solutions—of the cyber landscape, it’s an opportune time to forge a stronger relationship with customers.
Reseller Leadership
Three principles can guide the way for resellers to advise and help customers improve cybersecurity at this inflection point.
As new types of workplaces—and working—have emerged, organizations have increasingly moved to adopt SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM). Yet high adoption doesn’t necessarily mean deep expertise to support these implementations. And that’s where the right technology and the right reseller can help lead the way.
