ChannelPro’s latest Deep Dive virtual event provided IT providers and managed service professionals with a roadmap for transforming cybersecurity challenges into profitable opportunities.
The event kicked off with an in-depth discussion of the top threats businesses will face in 2025, including the alarming number of small business owners who underestimate their vulnerability to cyberattacks. Dawn Sizer, CEO of 3rd Element Consulting was the featured speaker for this session.
A key takeaway from Sizer’s presentation was that many solution providers unintentionally become part of the risk when they allow clients to bypass essential security measures. The 
session emphasized the importance of using cybersecurity frameworks—such as NIST, CIS Controls, and ISO 27001—to create structured, scalable security strategies. By aligning with these frameworks, MSPs can not only protect clients but also strengthen their own businesses through risk mitigation and compliance-driven services.
Sponsor presenters also offered valuable insights into the cybersecurity challenges MSPs are facing and demonstrated powerful solutions that MSPs can leverage to enhance cybersecurity and operational efficiency. Throughout these presentations, sponsors reinforced the theme that automation, integration, and strategic partnerships are essential for MSPs looking to navigate the evolving cybersecurity landscape and drive profitability.
