AvePoint unveils security upgrades for Elements Platform to aid MSPs
AvePoint has introduced new data security and management features to its Elements Platform aimed at supporting managed service providers (MSPs). The latest developments follow AvePoint's acquisition of Ydentic and the rollout of its next-generation Elements Platform earlier in 2025. The managed security services sector is estimated to reach USD $56.6 billion by 2027, with more than 80% of MSPs currently offering managed detection and response services. Almost all providers are planning to expand their portfolios with additional security services. AvePoint's updates are designed to help MSPs secure client data and introduce new service lines as the demand for managed security grows. Scott Sacket, Senior Vice President of Partner Strategy at AvePoint, said, "As technology advances and security challenges intensify, MSPs face increasing pressure to scale operations, enhance security, and unlock new revenue streams. The newest additions to the AvePoint Elements Platform give MSPs and channel partners the edge they need to drive business growth and augment their service offerings – by securing, managing, and protecting clients' critical business data." Two features are now available on the AvePoint Elements Platform: enhancements for user lifecycle management and unified device management and security. The update introduces User Lifecycle Management capabilities that automate tasks related to user provisioning and management. MSPs can enforce Multi-Factor Authentication, revoke active user sessions, and manage user access securely and efficiently across client environments. AvePoint's platform leverages intelligent automation and centralised controls to help MSPs reduce administrative workload, improve operational efficiency, and maintain security standards, which the company states are expected to provide both efficiency and profitability improvements for service providers. The second feature, Device Management capabilities, enables central management of devices across multiple clients, reducing the need for routine manual intervention. The system can automate processes like setting compliance policies, deploying applications, and enforcing security protocols such as remote device wipes, security scans, and policy synchronisation. According to AvePoint, these tools help MSPs maintain security while allowing their services to scale according to demand. Heather Deggans, Vice President ISV Partnerships at Microsoft, commented, "AvePoint continues to develop solutions purpose-built for partners that benefit everyone who uses Microsoft technology. "With the latest enhancements to the AvePoint Elements Platform, partners can deliver more intelligent and proactive data security, governance and management strategies to their customers. This level of automation and efficiency in one single solution allows users to forge more effective and resilient digital workplaces and make the most of their Microsoft investments." AvePoint reports that its global partner programme, which includes approximately 5,000 MSPs, value-added resellers, and systems integrators, is designed to equip partners with technologies suitable for a variety of collaboration environments, including Microsoft, Google, and Salesforce platforms.
