Building Stronger Defenses: A Deep Dive into NIST 800-171

The opportunity for MSSPs is growing, but so are the expectations. Customers are looking for more than point-in-time security services or help checking a compliance box. They want strategic partners who can help them navigate evolving requirements, manage risk, and demonstrate security and compliance on an ongoing basis. At the same time, MSSPs are facing their own challenges: differentiating in an increasingly competitive market, creating predictable revenue, scaling services efficiently, and proving greater value to customers. So, what will separate the security providers that grow in 2027 from those that get left behind? In this session, we’ll explore how leading MSSPs are evolving their go-to-market strategies and service offerings to meet changing buyer expectations and unlock new growth opportunities. From packaging compliance as a managed service to building recurring revenue and expanding existing customer relationships, attendees will walk away with practical ideas they can apply to their own growth strategy.

Large Language Models (LLMs), a sub-set of the AI tools category, are helping security teams innovate like never before. While AI won’t replace teams in Security Operations Centers (SOCs) anytime soon, it can deliver scale, accelerate response times, and enhance real-time operations when used effectively. At a broader enterprise level, while organizations are eager to harness AI for efficiency and actionable insights, its rapid evolution also introduces new, hard-to-measure risks, requiring a fresh approach to governance and compliance.

Cybersecurity strategies have traditionally centered on protecting IT systems: data, networks, endpoints, and cloud environments. But as industrial systems, critical infrastructure, and production environments grow increasingly digitized, attackers are shifting their focus to operational technology (OT) environments, where the majority of organizations still lack basic protections. Why? OT is fundamentally different from IT: it prioritizes uptime, safety, and continuity, and it wasn’t designed with modern threats in mind. Join Cybolt's Erik Holmes, Vice President, Managed Security Services and Enrique Azuara, Vice President, OT Security, to learn how organizations can secure OT alongside IT, without disrupting operations. They’ll outline practical strategies for building integrated security and compliance programs across both domains.
