Small and medium-sized businesses are under threat from hackers in a way they’ve never been before. They’re the new favorite targets of ransomware attacks. AI-fueled phishing scams and malware-as-a-service make criminal work easier than ever. Our SMB Cybersecurity Report found that hackers breached one in four SMBs last year, costing most of them between $10,000 and $100,000.
The best solution is also the simplest: Use a business password manager. To make strong cybersecurity even more accessible to SMBs, Proton Pass is launching a pilot program for managed service providers. We’re inviting MSPs in our community and beyond to take part. By joining the program now, you’ll be able to offer and manage Proton Pass Professional subscriptions from a dedicated portal in your own Proton Pass dashboard.
Many organizations use our Proton Pass password manager within their own infrastructure, and some IT firms and MSPs deploy it for other businesses. But until now, a more feature-rich managed services portal hasn’t been available. This program gives you the opportunity to add Proton Pass to the product portfolio offered to your customers while helping to shape the development and features of the Proton Pass MSP product.
What is the Proton Pass MSP pilot? #
The pilot program introduces a dedicated portal that allows MSPs to sell and manage Pass Professional subscriptions across multiple client organizations from one interface.
Before we roll out MSP services for broader availability, we’re inviting MSP businesses to take part in this initial pilot program. We’ll work closely with them to understand how they use the portal and what new features they would like to see.
This launch focuses on the core features you need as an MSP, including:
- Allowing multi-organization user provisioning and management
- Having an overview of all sub-organizations that you manage, showing allotted vs. used licenses per client, with one-click access to each client’s admin dashboard
What to know about the pilot program #
If you’re interested in taking part, here’s what to expect:
- After you getin touch with our sales teamand set up an agreement, you’ll be granted access to the new MSP portal. - You’ll be subscribed to your own Proton Pass plan that allows you to create and manage client sub-organizations from the dedicated MSP portal.
- Every seat allocation or disablement is recorded as a timestamped event.
- At the end of each month, you can export a detailed report that you can use to bill your own clients.
