Over the past few years, malware authors have developed increasingly sophisticated and creative ways to infect endpoints. Encrypting ransomware is no longer merely an annoyance. It’s a highly persistent and organised criminal activity in full deployment, with Ransomware-as-a-Service at its core. The damage from becoming a ransomware victim is considerable, and can even put organisations out of business.   At Webroot, we believe it’s possible to effectively protect enterprises and users, but only by understanding your adversary and the techniques they use for their attacks. In this webinar, Webroot’s own Senior Threat Research Analyst, Tyler Moffitt, will offer expert insights into the past, current, and emerging encrypting ransomware variants—and how businesses can stay ahead.

Join Webroot and Ninja to learn how to best build an endpoint security service and what to look for in a managed Endpoint Security Solution.     When it comes to endpoint security you risk losing your profit on the contract if you get your service offering wrong. Over the past two years, more than 6,000 MSPs have chosen Webroot as their endpoint security of choice. We listen to what MSPs tell us is important and what not to compromise on. It’s not just one thing that makes a difference, it’s a combination of factors that really add up to making an endpoint security service a success.   Register here.

Many MSPs struggle to develop a pricing strategy that works for their profit margin goals and their customers budgets. It's important to take a hard look at your own costs when developing your pricing strategy and the individual needs of your customers.   With a collective partner base of over 10,000 MSPs, Datto and Webroot come together to discuss managed services contracts, what's important and what not to compromise on. It's a combination of factors that really add up to making any MSP service a success, and one in particular that sometimes can go unnoticed - how your vendor can help you increase your profits.   Event Details:Thursday, September 1st, 2:00PM ET   Register here.
