How MSSPs Can Prove Their Value When “Nothing Happened”

ANY.RUN outlines how MSSPs can demonstrate SOC value by reporting investigation outcomes, threat patterns, and response metrics using its sandbox products.

ANY.RUN's blog argues MSSPs should report investigation outcomes, decision speed, and recurring threat patterns rather than raw alert counts. It cites company 2026 data: email accounts for 30.3% of MSSP sandbox submissions, and customers report 20% less Tier 1 investigation time and 30% fewer Tier 1 to Tier 2 escalations. Frequently analyzed threat families include ClickFix, Sneaky2FA, EvilTokens, EtherHiding, and Kali365.

AI is exposing a security structure built for yesterday’s threats

EY's Jeffrey Sallet argues AI-driven deepfakes and impersonation require integrating cybersecurity, physical security, HR and legal functions.

The opinion piece contends AI-powered impersonation, deepfakes and automated social engineering cross digital, physical and operational boundaries that siloed security programs cannot cover. It cites an EY survey of 250 corporate leaders where only 12% feel most prepared to detect a targeted physical attack, and describes transnational groups using deepfakes and stolen identities to bypass virtual HR hiring loops. The author urges unified cross-functional verification pipelines and shared threat intelligence between CISOs and chief security officers.

12 Best Endpoint Encryption Software Compared (2026): Features & Pricing

The guide also warns against unmaintained tools like Rohos for business use and stresses operational concerns over cipher selection.

Top 10 Best CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection) Platforms in 2026

GBHackers ranks 10 CNAPP platforms for 2026, naming Wiz, Prisma Cloud, and Microsoft Defender for Cloud as category leaders.

The guide describes CNAPP as the umbrella combining CSPM, CWPP, CIEM, and DSPM, arguing that cross-pillar correlation of attack paths is the platform's core value. Wiz is ranked best for graph-based correlation, Prisma Cloud for the broadest module set, and Microsoft Defender for Cloud for Azure economics.
