"For the first time, you can now monitor for threat activity directly inside your RMM. Detect, visualize, and report on threats in your ConnectWise Automate instance with support from Perch’s 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC)."
“Enterprises, and MSPs, should be monitoring all the products they use to run their business for threats. There is a security monitoring gap in the MSP market for monitoring most of the tools that they use to run their business, including RMMs. We selected ConnectWise Automate as the first RMM to monitor, however we have a pipeline of other RMMs that we are currently working on to monitor as well.”
