BOSTON, Sept. 17, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Central by LogMeIn today released its findings of a new global report, “Uncovering the Latest IT Trends, Threats, & ROI Solutions Deliver” revealing current market trends, security concerns, and quantification of the value IT solutions deliver. In addition, the report uncovers best practices to keep companies secure and breaks down the average ROI of implementing a Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) solution for small and medium sized businesses.
“Staying ahead of ever-changing security threats is one of the biggest challenges IT teams face today. For a SMB who is tasked to do more with less, relying on solutions that embrace automation and enhance security are absolute necessities,” said John Bennett, SVP & GM of Identity and Access Management at LogMeIn. “For both internal IT teams and MSPs, Central aims to provide IT professionals with the speed, flexibility, and insight needed to increase productivity, reduce IT costs, and mitigate risk.”
The global survey, which polled 500 IT professionals across North America and Europe, found that MSPs are significantly more concerned with internal data breaches and rapidly evolving technology practices, whereas internal IT teams are more concerned with employee behavior/habits. Data from the survey also showed that top security concerns remain consistent year over year with 54 percent of IT professionals ranking malware as their number one security concern, followed by ransomware (46 percent) and employee behavior (44 percent).
