7 Cybersecurity Essentials from the Experts
Unearth the top cybersecurity tactics from our expert-led webinar with special guest Marty Godsey from Rudio. Dive into CIS benchmarks, zero trust models, and more to safeguard your digital realm.

Cybersecurity isn’t just a buzzword — it’s a battleground where only the well-informed can safeguard their territory. Our recent webinar, featuring cybersecurity connoisseurs like Marty Godsey from Rudio, peeled back the layers on some of the most critical security challenges faced by organizations today. From the often-overlooked risks of printer security to the robust frameworks from the Center for Internet Security, we’ve compiled seven essential strategies for your cyber defense arsenal.

  1. Printer Security: The Hidden Battleground Marty Godsey kicked off the discussion with a startling revelation: printers are potential portals for cyberattacks. We explored the ‘Google dorking’ phenomenon and how securing your printers with advanced access control is a must.
  2. Networking Gold: The Untapped Value of Trade Shows Marty shared his three decades’ worth of wisdom on the power of trade shows like IT Nation for gaining tech insights and strategic connections that can propel your business forward.
  3. The Vendor Vetting Process: Aligning with CIS Benchmarks Choosing vendors is a strategic decision. Marty underscored the importance of CIS benchmarks in vendor selection, ensuring that security frameworks are trustworthy and robust.
  4. The Reporting Imperative: Ensuring Compliance and Security We unveiled why in-depth reporting from vendors is critical for verifying security measures and maintaining operational efficiency, a must-have in any MSP’s toolkit.
  5. Gatekeeping Your Network: The Art of Port and IP Management Marty emphasized the significance of managing network ports and IP addresses to secure connections and minimize vulnerabilities, a cornerstone of network security.
  6. The Overlooked Risk: Printer Driver Installation The conversation turned to the risks associated with printer driver installations. Marty explained how restricting these installations is key to maintaining system integrity.
  7. Zero Trust: The New Security Paradigm The webinar highlighted the zero trust model’s role in modern cybersecurity. Marty advocated for continuous verification of trust within the network, a principle that underpins robust cyber defenses.
