This annual list honors groundbreaking cloud technology providers across five key categories including cybersecurity.

Sophos is committed to helping organizations secure essential resources and we are proud to be recognized for the continued expansion of our cloud security portfolio. Trusted by 70% of the world’s top universities and top Fortune 500 to prevent cybersecurity incidents. It has never been more critical for those organizations adopting cloud services to optimize their security posture, block advanced threats, and have expert resources available to monitor environments 24/7 to stay secure. “Sophos is best in class when it comes to breadth and depth of innovative cybersecurity offerings that optimize protection against the most sophisticated and complex never-seen-before threats,” said Scott Barlow, Sophos vice president of global MSP and cloud alliances.

Sophos’ approach combines prevention, detection, and response across endpoint, cloud workloads, networks, configuration, and compliance, with 24/7 Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services to secure data, proactively prevent vulnerabilities, and block advanced threats. In the last year, Sophos expanded its capabilities across all these areas:

Commitment to the channel

Each year, the CRN Cloud 100 are recognized as forward-thinking cloud suppliers that have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to working with channel partners. Sophos’ commitment to the channel and our continued innovation in product and service development is enabling partners to better protect their customers and evolve to the changing threat and infrastructure landscape, to better protect their data endpoints and networks, irrespective of their environment.

This includes the relaunch of the Sophos Cloud Security Provider (CSP) program, to provide training, recognition, and financial incentives to help partners support their customers using or migrating to the public cloud. Sophos was the first next-gen security vendor to introduce a program specifically designed to help partners address this revenue growth opportunity and make the purchase and management of its products in Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure channel-friendly.

Modernizing cybersecurity procurement through cloud marketplaces is another key aspect of that commitment to the channel and our customers, ensuring our partners continue to provide the best service for any organization. Sophos Cloud Security is available in AWS Marketplace to help customers improve procurement processes to match the speed of cloud while maintaining governance. And, at the same time, enabling customers to continue purchasing through their preferred Sophos Partner in AWS Marketplace.
