This is a great opportunity! Cybersecurity is really hot right now and there are great opportunities to grow a practice. 

Not my game at all, but building a consultative practice around cybersecurity is a great opportunity for SIs that are looking for new areas. The market is willing to pay very decent fees for partners that know what they're doing and that have their IP.   

I am personally looking for ISVs that have SaaS offerings in this space. With a little bit of AI, I envision that this is a great area for investments.

Agreed Per. Recent news around cybersecurity clearly shows how prepared overall customers are to manage cybersecurity attacks. For partners, this is definitely a great opportunity to build practice to help customer prepare for cybersecurity readiness. Also, customers will increasingly rely on turn key solutions so I also think MSP have great opportunity as well to provide turn key security solutions.
