Among the key questions MSPs will likely ask: Does WatchGuard Cloud integrate with PSA (Professional Services Automation) and RMM (Remote Monitoring and Management) software platforms that MSPs frequently use for business management?
"WatchGuard's Firebox network security appliance integrates directly with PSA and RMM platforms via APIs to synchronize WatchGuard security asset information, auto generate service tickets with closed-loop ticketing of system, security, and subscription events and deliver on-demand security service reports. PSA integrations include ConnectWise, Autotask and TigerPaw. and RMM integrations include SolarWinds, Auvik, Kaseya, Logicnow and others."
"WatchGuard is currently actively engaged with BDR systems to provide layered security for data continuity and security of data backups and restores. WatchGuard's goal is to ensure MSSPs can layer security starting with appropriate network segmentation as well as providing enterprise-grade security at the network layer where the data travels to and from the BDR solutions."
