Uncle Marv's IT Business Podcast (Real Talk for IT Pros & MSPs)

Delaware Just Raised Your Cyber Risk (981)

Listen Later

This one’s a game changer. A single court ruling just made it easier for customers and insurers to come after MSPs after a breach—and harder for you to get out of it. If you haven’t looked at your contracts and security stack lately, now’s the time.

=== Why Listen

  • Breakdown of the Delaware Supreme Court decision and why it matters
  • How one breach can turn into multi-client litigation
  • Why cyber insurance carriers (like Travelers) are coming after MSPs
  • The shift from “best practices” to legal standards (MFA, encryption, patching)
  • Contract gaps that could expose your business
  • Practical steps to reduce liability today
