A New Approach to Customer Contracting - How to Protect Your MSP from Liability

MSPs have experienced the negative consequences of not having market-leading customer contracts. From Ransomware attacks to problems with data backups, MSPs need written agreements with customers that clearly define the services that are included and excluded, make clear that MSPs are not responsible for failure of third-party solutions, or the criminal acts of third-parties, and that include the appropriate data processing agreements to comply with applicable regulatory requirements such as GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and GLBA.
