      How do MSPs really feel the channel will shape up by 2020?

      On borrowed time?

      Cybercrime has become a huge part of our economy and it is a topic that is getting more and more attention in the news media. The cybercriminal stories making headlines involve big companies such as British Airways and Marriott etc. However, smaller companies are just as susceptible to cyber- attacks. Often these attacks are much more damaging to smaller businesses, sometimes forcing them to shut down completely. One report from Verizon claims that 43% of email attacks target SMBs.

Misco announced earlier today that it is to shut its UK warehouse in a move it says is in line with many of its reseller competitors.

CEO Alan Cantwell said the rise of drop-shipping meant its logistics centre in Greenock is now shipping just 400 to 500 parcels daily, despite being purpose-built to ship over 10 times that number.
