We Are MSP

We Are Bob. We Are MSP.

When the Bobiverse meets RMM life

Just finished We Are Legion (We Are Bob) by Dennis E. Taylor — and honestly, it’s the most accurate description of what it’s like running an RMM platform for an MSP.

  • Spin up agents (aka Bobs)
  • Send them out into the galaxy (your clients’ networks)
  • Watch them all evolve in slightly different directions
  • Hope none go rogue, crash, or start questioning their purpose mid-patch

Each Bob:
“I’ve identified an inefficiency in the system. Running script…”

Meanwhile, me:
“Please stop rewriting your own policies, just install the printer driver.”

Managing a fleet of autonomous tools in 100+ environments? Welcome to the Bobiverse.

When Your Core MSP Tool Becomes the Headline

⚠️ Security Advisory: N-able N-central on CISA KEV — CVE-2025-8875 (insecure deserialization) & CVE-2025-8876 (command injection). Active exploitation reported. Update to 2025.3.1 Or install 2024.6 HF2 Enforce MFA for Admins Share client notice MSPs, Take Note: When Your Core Tool Is in the Crosshairs The N-central news shows how fast a central platform can become a central risk. In the MSP world, your RMM/central platform is the heartbeat of patching, monitoring, and response. When it lands on the KEV list, it’s not just a patch—it’s an operational fire drill: validate exposure, confirm versions, brief staff, notify clients, and verify compensating controls. Why It Hurts the MSP Space Trust shockwave: Headlines trigger client anxiety. Even fully patched orgs get the “Are we safe?” calls. Operational drag: War-room time: scanning, change w...

🚀 8 Days of Azure PaaS — Updates! Day 1 & Day 2 are live — and this is just the beginning. I’m two days into my new project: 8 Days of Azure PaaS 🎉 Over 8 days, I’m refreshing and documenting my knowledge of Microsoft Azure’s Platform as a Service (PaaS) offerings. Each day I dive into a different piece — App Services, Functions, SQL Database, AKS, Logic Apps, and more — while sharing notes, gotchas, and hands-on examples. 💡 This is a learn-in-public project . I’m sharing the journey openly — the good, the confusing, and the “aha!” moments — along with the learning sources I review. 👉 Read Day 1 — What is PaaS? 👉 Read Day 2 — Azure App Services 🔹 Why I’m Doing This In a recent interview, I realized I’ve been deep in the MSP world, IT security, RMM tools, and PSA platforms — but needed a refresher on Azure’s PaaS side. This project keeps me accountable and ...
