"The SonicWall report reveals that the threat landscape continues to grow in complexity and depth as threat actors adopt new tactics and platforms," said SonicWall CEO Bob VanKirk.

The data illustrates the tenacious and evolving state of cyber threats, underscoring the need for businesses to adapt their security strategies continually, and serves as a call for organizations to lean on MSPs to help identify and remediate threats quickly.

"Today's organizations demand an integrated approach for end-to-end managed threat protection enabling MSPs to help customers navigate the cybersecurity landscape with confidence and resilience - giving them a distinct competitive edge."

The second half of 2023 saw a barrage of ransomware activity, and a variety of other attacks have trended up globally annually, including IoT exploits, intrusion attempts, and encrypted threats.

"In an era where cyber threats are increasingly sophisticated, MSPs are the frontline defense protecting their customers and helping them spend more of their time managing their business' needs," said CTO of Compass MSP and longtime SonicWall partner Alex Tsukanov.

"New threats are emerging every day, and MSPs use threat insights to build an actual plan with the necessary capabilities to keep our customers safe, like that found in the threat report."
