As the most widely used MDR offering with more than 19,000 customers, Sophos MDR is recognized as the leading MDR offering for “revenue and profit.”

“Demand for always-on and fully managed security operations is at an all-time high, and adoption of Sophos MDR as the industry’s leading MDR offering is rapidly multiplying. The growth opportunity for channel partners is tremendous,” said Rob Harrison, senior vice president of security operations product management at Sophos. “Organizations need help defending against active adversaries that are carrying out attacks at record speed and covering their tracks by disabling or completely wiping out telemetry logs, as evidenced by new Sophos X-Ops threat intelligence. MDR with full-scale incident response is an urgently needed critical layer of 24/7 security, and CRN’s recognition of Sophos MDR as industry best underscores its crucial role protecting organizations against increasingly fast moving and complex attacks.”

Sophos MDR has experienced 51% growth of its customer base since introducing industry-first technology-agnostic capabilities that enable it to be delivered across end users’ existing third-party security deployments as well as Sophos offerings. More than 75 third-party technology integrations are now available on the Sophos Marketplace.Organizations using Microsoft Security can also leverage the recently to fortify endpoint, SIEM, identity, cloud, and other Microsoft Security tools.

“The CRN Products of the Year Awards are among the most highly anticipated industry accolades in the IT channel, in large part because they are based on the real-world experience of solution providers that work with the technology day in and day out,” said Jennifer Follett, vice president, U.S. content and executive editor, CRN, at The Channel Company. “This year’s winning vendors go to market with a strong focus on the channel and a demonstrated commitment to attaining product excellence that brings advantages to both partners and customers.”
