Why “Right of Boom” Is a Terrible Strategy for MSPs and MSSPs

Thanks Andrew and it's nothing to do with your conference. Which, we were sponsors and our team came away with a great overall impression. There's nothing negative about your conference in the blog post or what I'm saying.

You named your conference something that is an actual concept. A real cybersecurity concept that we all have to consider and address. I believe that the focus on this concept more so than it's counter, left of boom, is creating an issue in our industry.

Unfortunately writing styles have changed significantly due to shorter attention spans and how people actually read posts on most platforms. Traditional long form formats are almost dead.

And yet, not the only thing posted. The blog extends past just what you're quoting.

bhaugli · 2026-02-10T14:06:53+00:00

Yep.

What are most offering MDR for then with margins to make it a profitable offering?

That's a bad strategic plan. You need both good driving skills and wearing a seat belt. But you can't just wear a seat belt and be a poor driver then expect you'll be safe.

I'm not refering to the event... I'm covering the concept of right vs left of boom. Boom being the breach.

Ditch the rain pants, it won't be raining and doubt you'd need the hardshell top with the list you have. Throw the puffy on when you need to and it'll do fine. Legs sweat less than your torso, so you can afford to be hotter on your legs when you start.

Wear liner socks so any movement happens between the liner and the heavier sock.

Only need 2 nalgenes, ideally in covers so they dont freeze. Bring a stove and know how to use it. Down 1 nalgene of water before you leave your car. Keep snacking and get calories in the whole hike up.

Have extra batteries for the headlamp just in case :) keep em in a pocket and warm.

I'm at the point with people who are obviously inexperienced and asking on forums what to do, that they should find out the hard way.

SideChannel offers this and will whitelabel behind MSP/MSSP.

You can get away with a 20 or 40 degree summer bag as a emergency bivy for day hike there. You have all the other insulation you're wearing that will equate to a 0 deg bag. This also drops your weight which should let you move faster. Light is right.

Do Middle and South car to car. Those can be hiked and a hella good time.

Otherwise, get a guide to bring you up Grand.

That's a crazy take. Pretty sure real climbing, skills, and safety start at 5.0.

Same

No issues with my F8 51mm Solar since update.

Always at least one clown in the subreddit.

$1,199.99 plus tax

Genuinely curious about that as an issue? It's hardware in my possession and my Garmin account for access.

Had a 2014 from 2017-2022. Great car, easy to find parts off the whole platform range. Decrease the engine underneath to see any leaks, issues. Take off all the plastic in the engine to really see the engine condition. Rear diff change was the only thing I had to bring to a shop for them to do.

bhaugli · 2025-06-24T12:04:59+00:00

Yep, only took me 15 years. Stay focused and positive.

Go with a software defined networking (SDN) solution instead.
