Background
Why we built this.
Cybersecurity coverage has become the defining question in MSP relationships. Clients are under increasing pressure from cyber insurers, regulators, and their own boards to demonstrate that their IT provider is doing more than keeping the lights on. When a company names cybersecurity coverage as their top MSP pain point, they're signaling that the gap between what they're paying for and what they're actually getting has become impossible to ignore.
This segment captures 111 companies where that concern is on the record, documented via live research call in Q3 2026. These aren't accounts with vague security anxiety — they've specifically named their MSP's cybersecurity coverage as their primary failure. For MSSPs, for MDR vendors, or for MSPs that have invested seriously in security stack depth, this is an audience whose current provider has already disqualified itself. The question they're asking isn't whether to upgrade their security posture — it's who they trust to provide it.

How to use this segment.
1
Security stack audit offer
Offer a no-cost review of their current security coverage against a baseline framework — NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or their cyber insurance requirements. These accounts often don't know specifically what's missing, just that something is. Give them the map.
"We'll run a 45-minute coverage audit against your cyber insurance requirements at no charge. Most clients find two or three gaps their current MSP hasn't addressed."
2
Insurance alignment framing
Cyber insurance is driving security requirements into MSP contracts faster than anything else. If your security stack satisfies common insurer requirements, lead with that — it's the most immediately actionable framing for finance and operations stakeholders.
"Every client we onboard leaves with a coverage summary that maps directly to the Coalition and Corvus underwriting checklists. Your renewal conversation gets a lot easier."
3
Incident response differentiation
Many clients don't know whether their MSP has a real incident response plan until something happens. If you have documented IR procedures, tabletop exercise cadence, and a named IR team, lead with that — it's a differentiator most MSPs can't match.
"We run a tabletop exercise with every client in the first 90 days. You'll know exactly who calls who and what happens in the first four hours of an incident."

FAQ
Common questions.
Exclusivity is the product. If the same 111 accounts received outreach from multiple competing vendors simultaneously, response rates would collapse and every buyer's return on investment would erode. One buyer means the intelligence retains its edge.
