In this episode of Channel Insider: Partner POV, host Katie Bavoso sits down with Mike Fuhrman, CEO of Omega Systems, to discuss the company’s transformation from a traditional Managed Service Provider (MSP) to a Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP). This shift was a priority for Fuhrman when he joined the company in 2021. Fuhrman explains what nonnegotiable requirements truly define an MSSP. The CEO and IT veteran also shares what brought him from the vendor space to the partner side of industry, the strategic approach that sets Omega apart, and how cybersecurity and compliance have become critical and defining portfolio offerings for their clients. Plus, learn what he advises business leaders looking to outsource to an MSSP to ask when interviewing prospects.

A new episode of Channel Insider: Partner POV is released every other Thursday.
