Posted at 13:33h, 22 OctoberIn regards to “Turning off RMM” and a couple other recent topics about RMM and ransomware; no where do you present providing more secure and more reliable alternative RMM solutions. How about looking at RMM tools that are more reliable and more secure. RMM solutions that don’t stop working every time the MSPs network or the remote network or the Internet have an issue. RMM solutions that that don’t use agents. The same agents that have been used to deliver viruses and ransomware to their customers equipment. Maybe its time to examine alternative methodologies and technologies. Maybe for some it should not be business as usual and excepting lifeboats (RMM tools) designed to go down with the ship.
