Adrian Young, Regional Vice President EMEA at ColorTokens, joins Michael Conway of Renaissance to talk about breach containment for MSPs and ITSPs in Ireland and the UK.

Boards, insurers and regulators now want to know what happens when an attack gets through and how far the damage can spread, and that question is landing with the managed service providers who look after them.

Adrian and Michael look at why cyber resilience has reached board level, and where the gap sits between detection and containment for partners who already run EDR, identity and backup. Adrian explains blast radius in plain terms, and why reusing the security tools a customer already has now puts microsegmentation within reach of smaller estates.

The conversation also covers why a breached customer quickly becomes the MSP's own incident, and why partners who can secure IT and OT together are likely to stand out. Supply chain questionnaires, cyber insurance audits and regulation such as NIS2 and DORA come into it too, since each one is raising the bar for the evidence partners need to provide.

For the ITSPs and the MSPs listening, there's a practical thread running through it all: how containment can become a recurring revenue service, and why being able to prove at renewal that a customer's risk has come down helps you keep that customer.

Whether you run a managed service business, lead a security practice or work in a vendor channel team, this conversation is built around what's relevant to yourselves.

The OT Forum with ColorTokens, 20th October and 24th November 2026

If Adrian's episode has you thinking about containment, he'll be taking the conversation further in the OT Forum, a two-part webinar series Renaissance is running with ColorTokens for organisations responsible for critical infrastructure and operational technology. Adrian is joined by David Keating of Renaissance for both sessions, which start at 11am.

The first session, NIS2: The OT Problem Nobody Is Solving, takes place on Tuesday 20th October 2026. It covers what NIS2 board accountability means for organisations running OT, where perimeter security falls short in these environments, and how segmentation and containment allow operations to keep running through an incident.

The second session, When AI Finds the Gaps in Your OT Network, follows on Tuesday 24th November 2026 and looks at how AI is changing the speed and scale of attacks against OT environments, along with the controls that can contain an attack before operations are affected.
