If your firm doesn't have a team of qualified security specialists, you can turn to a managed security provider (MSP), also known as a security outsourcer, security application service supplier, managed security services provider, or hosting services manager. MSPs sell a range of security services from managed firewall services to total security solutions, but these services are provided from the outside in, in contrast to the normal inside-out model.
Going with an MSP could solve some of your cyber-security nightmares: experienced and well-trained security professionals are hard to find and expensive to retain; security software is expensive and often protects only specific applications; and security systems must be monitored constantly. And if that isn't enough, security techniques and technologies are changing all the time.
