Listen "Audit vs Audit Preparation: What MSPs Need to Know"
Episode Synopsis
There is a lot of wiggle room when it comes to knowledge and implementation of compliance in a managed services environment. More precisely, MSPs must understand and operate with accurate knowledge of the difference between preparing for an audit or certification and the testing or auditing of an environment. Both components are important, but the MSP is more suited to one and not the other.
Here's what MSPs need to know.
Audit and certifications in a compliance setting
Preparation for and audit or certification
Consulting vs testing
Role of the MSP in audits and certifications
Preparation and consulting are the domain of the MSP
MSPs actively manage infrastructure, networks, and objects being tested, therefore, the MSP should not be the one testing
