For some businesses, working with a technology solutions provider creates a mindset that the problem is no longer theirs, and as a result, their role in preventing and mitigating cybersecurity risks becomes more passive.

In particular, helping end users to focus on phishing and social engineering attacks, access and passwords, together with device and physical security can close the loop between TSP and end users and keep cybercriminals at bay.

TSPs have an important role to play in training end users about key network vulnerabilities, including access privileges, passwords, and also the network connection itself.

It's important to educate and encourage end users to only connect to trusted networks or secure the connection with proper VPN settings.

Empowering end users to guard against the most common risks might feel intangible to employers and TSPs alike, and in reality, they may never be able to measure how many attacks they have defeated.
