Sophos Expands Managed Service Provider Offerings

Sophos, a UK-based company focused on next-generation cloud-enabled cybersecurity solutions, has updated its MSP Connect program with an eye towards simplified sales, deployment, and management.

New offerings for Managed Detection and Response (MDR), cloud security, professional services automation (PSA) and remote monitoring and management (RMM) integrations have also been added. More specifically, support for Windows Server, macOS and Linux have been added to the company’s threat hunting, detection and response services. In addition, MSP Flex billing options have been extended to Cloud Optix, a solution that automatically discovers and secures customer assets stored in AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. Sophos has also expanded integrations with Datto, Kaseya and ConnectWise.

“To further support this growth, Sophos is expanding its MSP program with optimized offerings that directly meet the evolving needs of MSPs and their customers,” said Scott Barlow, vice president, Global MSP, Sophos. “Sophos is committed to helping MSPs stay ahead of new and emerging threats, and we’re providing a flexible subscription-based model for critical solutions and services that better protect customers with the scalability and automatic invoicing to fit their operational needs.”

Sophos MSP Connect supports more than 8,000 global and regional MSPs worldwide. MSP billings increased 83 percent in the first half of Sophos’ fiscal year, resulting in annual recurring revenue of $33 million.
