CMMC Level 2 Certification for MSPs: Certify or Stay in Scope?
Oktober 2, 2025
Lewis Pope
Head Nerd
Lewis startete seine Karriere im MSP-Bereich und sammelte sechs Jahre Erfahrung als Systemadministrator, Manager of Service Delivery und IT-Leiter bei einem Reparaturdienst, der sich später zu einem vollwertigen MSP entwickelte. 2018 stieß Lewis als Sales Engineer zu N‑able und wurde 2021 Teil des renommierten Head Nerds-Teams.
Als Head Nerd bei N‑able widmet sich Lewis dem Schwerpunkt Cybersicherheit. Er unterstützt MSPs dabei, Sicherheits- und betriebliche Herausforderungen zu meistern. Dies umfasst praxisorientierte Schulungen, Weiterbildungen und Beratungen zur Implementierung effektiver Sicherheitskontrollen sowie eines angemessenen Risiko- und Vorfallsmanagements. Sein Ziel: MSPs dazu befähigen, die nötige Reife im Bereich der Cybersicherheit zu entwickeln, um modernen Risiken und der dynamischen Bedrohungslandschaft standzuhalten und neue Wachstumschancen zu erschließen.
In seiner Freizeit moderiert Lewis leidenschaftlich gerne Gameshows auf Science-Fiction-Conventions, bastelt an Mikrocontrollern mit viel zu vielen LEDs herum oder liest endlose Feeds mit Bedrohungsinformationen. Außerdem ist er überaus stolz auf seine Tochter, aber wenn wir hier alle Gründe dafür aufzählen würden, wären wir wohl eine Weile beschäftigt.
