Prepare to be Hacked
Business leaders need a security framework to evaluate risk, so they can make informed decisions: close their gaps and address the risk or accept it (because the cost to fix it is more than the impact).
CRN article excerpt:
WhiteDog develops a composable cybersecurity stack specifically for indirect channel partners looking to offer white-labeled managed security, said Shahin Pirooz, founder of the company.
WhiteDog currently uses a mix of 45 commercial and open-source technologies to bring about 20 products with about three or four editions each to help MSPs with endpoint security, email security, DNS security and zero trust security, all layered over with 24x7 security operations, Pirooz told CRN.
“We actually do threat hunting where we’re literally looking at every alert and inspecting if it’s real or not,” he said. “We look at things that may not be an alert but should have been an alert, and identify, classify.”
WhiteDog used XChange to show its recently launched multi-PSA integration, Pirooz said.
“So whatever PSA an MSP is using, they can integrate with us,” he said. We work with the top three brands: ConnectWise, Kaseya and Datto’s Autotask. But we’ve also done it through an open framework so if there’s anything that we don’t have, we will be able to integrate with it. It takes us just weeks to set up a new one.”
WhiteDog is also now working with Glasshive to provide Silver-level and higher partners with free marketing materials, outbound communications, lead generation and CRM functionality, he said.

SANTA CLARA, CA, March 7, 2024 -- WhiteDog, a pioneer in advanced cybersecurity solutions for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), announced today that it received a 2024 XCellence Award for Best Newcomer at the XChange conference, hosted by The Channel Company. During XChange, leading channel decision-makers and technology suppliers gather for three dynamic days of building business relationships and advancing strategies that benefit the full channel.

Like other MSPs, BACS had tried to build their own security stack, but they felt like they were constantly chasing their tails. By the time they decided on the tools and rolled them out, everything was obsolete—or they were lacking parts.
