We’re thrilled to share that Sophos has been named a finalist in CRN’s 2025 Product of the Year Awards in two pivotal cybersecurity categories — a recognition that reinforces the power of our solutions and the value they deliver to our partners. This marks our second CRN recognition in just one week, further underscoring the strength of our innovation and our ongoing commitment to partner success.

Channel-First Innovation that Drives Partner Success

CRN’s Product of the Year Awards celebrate solutions that deliver real business impact. Sophos’ recognition across both Endpoint Protection and MDR categories reflects our unwavering commitment to the channel, helping partners simplify cybersecurity delivery, expand service portfolios, and drive profitable growth with trusted, high-performing technologies.

Our unified platform and channel-first approach empower partners to:

  • Offer differentiated, high-value security services without the complexity of managing multiple vendors.
  • Accelerate recurring revenue through scalable MDR and XDR offerings.
  • Strengthen customer relationships with measurable protection outcomes and reduced operational burden.

Empowering Partners to Protect, Scale, and Win

As CRN highlights, endpoints remain one of the most vulnerable areas in today’s hybrid environments. With Sophos XDR, partners gain full visibility, control, and response capabilities across endpoints, networks, and cloud assets, all through a single, integrated management console.

Sophos MDR builds on that foundation with 24/7 threat hunting, monitoring, and incident response from Sophos’ elite security experts, so partners can deliver enterprise-grade protection and peace of mind without the cost of building their own SOC.

A Win for the Channel

This recognition underscores Sophos’ ongoing dedication to our partner ecosystem. We’re proud to help resellers and MSPs grow their businesses, enhance customer trust, and increase profitability through a unified cybersecurity ecosystem built for simplicity and success.

Sophos continues to make security smarter, more effective, and more rewarding—for our partners and their customers.

Discover how Sophos XDR and Sophos MDR can help you deliver next-level protection and value to your clients.
