A New Webinar Tackles the Full Attack Lifecycle for MSPs
Cyberattacks are evolving at a pace that is outstripping the defenses maintained by many managed service providers and corporate security teams. Phishing has emerged as one of the primary engines of modern cybercrime, and its growing sophistication is forcing MSPs to reconsider not just how they stop attacks, but how they recover from them when prevention falls short.
On Thursday, May 14, 2026, at 2:00 PM ET, BleepingComputer will host a live webinar titled "From phishing to fallout: Why MSPs must rethink both security and recovery" in partnership with experts from Kaseya. The session is designed to walk MSPs through the full arc of a modern cyberattack — from initial phishing lure to downstream fallout — and to demonstrate why security and backup strategies must be tightly integrated to minimize risk and guarantee recovery.
What the Webinar Will Cover
The session will dig into how AI-powered phishing campaigns, business email compromise (BEC), and ransomware operations have become increasingly targeted and significantly harder to detect. These attacks frequently slip past traditional security controls, giving threat actors the foothold they need to move laterally through client environments.
A central theme of the discussion is the dangerous gap that often exists between threat detection and effective response. Even when a threat is identified, slow incident response or poorly planned recovery procedures can transform what might have been a contained breach into a full-scale operational outage. The webinar will explore how that gap can be closed.
Topics scheduled to be addressed include:
- Why AI-driven phishing and brand impersonation are outpacing conventional email security tools
- How attackers exploit trusted infrastructure and SaaS platforms to bypass existing defenses
- Where MSP security strategies most commonly break down after an initial compromise
- Why SaaS backups and business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) planning are now critical components of cyber resilience
- How leading MSPs are combining prevention, detection, and rapid recovery into a unified approach
Prevention Alone Is No Longer Sufficient
While blocking attacks before they succeed remains a priority, the hard reality is that no security stack catches every threat. Many MSPs only discover — too late — that their tools lack the speed or flexibility to respond and recover after a breach has occurred. Modern attacks regularly progress well beyond initial access, encompassing data exfiltration, account takeover, and ransomware deployment. In that environment, recovery capabilities must be treated as equally important as detection capabilities.
The webinar will address how embedding backup and disaster recovery directly into a broader security strategy can substantially reduce downtime and limit the blast radius of any given incident. Attendees will come away with practical guidance on how attackers are currently abusing trusted infrastructure and SaaS platforms, and what MSPs can do today to adapt their defenses.
About Kaseya
Kaseya is widely recognized for its MSP-focused security and backup solutions. The company advocates for an integrated approach to cyber resilience — one that brings together prevention, detection, and rapid recovery rather than treating them as separate disciplines. By combining these capabilities, MSPs are better positioned to protect client environments and sustain business continuity even when security incidents occur.
