CISA Insights on Risk Considerations for Managed Service Provider Customers

This article is contributed. See the original author and article here.

CISA has released a new CISA Insights, Risk Considerations for Managed Service Provider Customers (MSPs), which provides Managed Service Provider (MSP) customers a framework for reducing risk.

This framework is designed for government and private sector organizations of all sizes, and it suggests considerations for IT management planning, best practices, and tools for reducing overall risk. This resource divides guidance across these areas: (1) senior executives and boards of directors (strategic decision-making); (2) procurement professionals (operational decision-making); and (3) network administrators, systems administrators, and front-line cybersecurity staff (tactical decision-making).
