Kaseya Ransomware Attack Has Led To A Windfall For ThreatLocker: CEO Danny Jenkins
Steven Burke
ThreatLocker co-founder and CEO Danny Jenkins says his company experienced record sales growth in July in the wake of the Kaseya ransomware attack and is adding 60,000 new seats a month to its application whitelisting solution.
How vulnerable are MSP platforms to ransomware at this point?
Incredibly vulnerable. If not because of possible vulnerabilities, but because they are accessed by people. They are open to access. Therefore, if someone gets into them they could use those powerful tools.
Is there any slowdown in ransomware for MSPs?
It is getting higher and higher and higher every week. As a security person and CEO of the company, I can tell you our stuff is locked down tight everywhere you can imagine, but it scares the crap out of me. I see all these systems and it’s not just whether they have ThreatLocker on their endpoint. I see MSPs that don’t lock down their service to the internet. They don’t put basic controls in place. I see it all the time. You can’t run your business like that.
How much at risk are MSPs?
They are incredibly at risk.
