The days may be getting shorter outside, but inside the walls of your organization you and your team are working overtime trying to drive fourth quarter sales and prepare for the busy holiday rush.

With so much going on this time of year, you barely even have time to eat lunch, let alone deal with the constant demands of managing your network.

This is a major problem, however, when considering just how important your network is to your business. With such a busy schedule, you simply lack the time needed to devote yourself to issues like staying informed about the constantly evolving state of cybersecurity, purchasing and provisioning new infrastructure and overseeing daily operations.

You’re not alone in  struggling to nurture your network. In fact, a recent survey of 10,000 executives shows that just 45 percent actively participate in their corporate cybersecurity strategies—a figure that should be much higher considering that 32 percent of organizations have detected 50 or more cybersecurity incidents within the past 12 months.

Enterprise security is more important than ever in today’s unpredictable Internet landscape, and communication between executive teams and network folks is vital for staying safe.

If you and your staff are simply too busy to devote the necessary time and attention to your network, and you feel as though it is becoming deprived as a result, there’s no shame in outsourcing your core management operations to a managed services provider (MSP) which can streamline the entire process for your business. By outsourcing to an MSP, your business will gain the constant vigilance—and dedication—needed to ensure that it stays up and running, under budget and safe from hackers throughout the busy holiday season, and throughout 2016.
