Leading cybersecurity distributor Brigantia recently hosted a three-day compliance roadshow, stopping in London, Birmingham, and Newcastle. Key industry vendors Sendmarc, Heimdal, Hornetsecurity, and AuthN by IDEE joined the event, which tackled the increasing regulatory landscape, including DORA, NIS2, and Cyber Essentials, and how MSPs can navigate these challenges.
