MSP Expo & Right of Boom - 2026 Conference Debrief
In this conference debrief, Marvin and Eric break down Right of Boom’s security-first MSP focus, longer workshop-style sessions, and why it attracts compliance-driven providers working with FTC, HIPAA, and CMMC requirements. Nick Wolf from Cork joins to explain Cork’s Cyber Score, financial protection, and how MSPs are baking incident response coverage into their standard security stack. Perfect for MSPs and IT pros who want to level up cybersecurity, compliance, and conference strategy in 2026.
