For the vast majority of organizations, the complexity and expense associated with recruiting, training, and retaining a skilled team of security operations analysts in-house is a tall order. Add to that attempting to stand up a complete security operations center (SOC) and associated threat feeds, and the reality of rolling out your own 24\/7 threat detection and response capability becomes simply out of reach for all but the very largest of organizations.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why the savviest IT professionals look to outsource MDR capabilities to a trusted partner &#8211; resulting in unmatched revenue opportunities for you. When evaluating MDR services, numbers matter. And whichever way you look at it, Sophos is number one for MDR.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sophos.com\/en-us\/products\/managed-detection-and-response\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sophos MDR<\/a> today protects over 15,000 organizations (and counting) from advanced cyberthreats that technology alone cannot stop, considerably more than any other provider. We defend organizations of all sizes and across all industries in over 120 countries around the globe. This breadth and depth of experience enables Sophos to deliver superior cybersecurity outcomes day in, day out, backed by the reassurance of our market-leading breach protection warranty.<\/p>\n<h2>#1 for Threat Expertise and Response Time<\/h2>\n<p>Defending over 15,000 customers gives our MDR analysts a level of threat detection, investigation, and remediation expertise that other providers simply cannot replicate. Sophos sees more and stops more than anyone else.\u00a0This unparalleled threat experience enables our analysts to respond more quickly and accurately at all stages of the detection and response process, from identifying the signals that matter to investigating potential incidents and neutralizing malicious activities.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe pen testers were shocked they couldn\u2019t find a way in. That was the point we knew we could absolutely trust the Sophos service.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 University of South Queensland<\/p>\n<p>We maintain shared runbooks for each threat or unique actor that we experience across all customer environments. Once an adversary is identified, analysts reference the relevant runbook and leap straight into action, leveraging the team\u2019s collective experiences to quickly resolve the incident.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cSophos\u2019 MDR solution has saved us at least once in the past year from a nasty malware incident that could have turned into a full-blown ransomware attack very quickly.\u201d<br \/>\n\u2013\u00a0<\/em>HammondCare<\/p>\n<p>Our breadth and depth of threat experience enables us to detect and neutralize attacks faster than anyone else. Sophos MDR customers benefit from an average threat response time of just 38 minutes to detect, investigate and remediate, considerably faster than other security providers and more than five times quicker than even the quickest in-house teams.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-89584 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/response.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 903px) 100vw, 903px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/response.png 903w, https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/response.png?resize=300,159 300w, https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/response.png?resize=768,408 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"903\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>#1 for Industry-Specific Expertise<\/h2>\n<p>Securing over 15,000 customers means that Sophos MDR has deep experience of defending organizations across every major industry sector. Of course, this is easy to say but much harder to deliver which is why I\u2019d like to put some numbers to this point. Of our current customers*:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>11% are in education<\/li>\n<li>11% are in financial services<\/li>\n<li>12% are in government<\/li>\n<li>7% are in healthcare<\/li>\n<li>17% are in manufacturing<\/li>\n<li>10% are in retail<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Within each sector we automatically apply the intelligence and learnings from protecting one customer to all others with a similar profile. This enables us to elevate our customers\u2019 defenses above and beyond what could be achieved otherwise.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>#1 for Real-Time Threat Intelligence<\/h2>\n<p>As a leading global provider of cybersecurity technologies, Sophos protects over 550,000 organizations with our market-leading endpoint, network, email, and cloud security solutions. Each solution generates a wealth of real-time threat intelligence that is shared with Sophos MDR analysts via our Adaptive Cybersecurity Ecosystem, ensuring our operators always have the most complete and most current visibility into active threats.<\/p>\n<p>Cybersecurity providers with less visibility into active threats often supplement their in-house insights with additional threat intelligence feeds that aggregate threat activity from a broader set of sources. These feeds are valuable, but they only inform security teams of events <em>after they happen<\/em><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Conversely, our in-house full stack threat intelligence provides visibility into threats\u00a0<em>as they are happening.\u00a0<\/em>Armed with these insights, we can quickly discover novel (new) adversary activity in a single customer environment and then proactively defend every other organization under our watch.<\/p>\n<h2>#1 Rated by Customers<\/h2>\n<p>Not only is Sophos MDR the most trusted service, but it is also the highest rated. Customers consistently give Sophos MDR top scores in independent reviews:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sophos is the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gartner.com\/reviews\/market\/managed-detection-and-response-services\/vendor\/sophos\/product\/sophos-managed-detection-and-response-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">highest rated and most reviewed MDR solution<\/a>\u00a0on Gartner\u00ae Peer Insights\u2122 with a 4.8\/5 rating across 271 reviews as on December 20th, 2022, and 97% of customers say they would recommend us<\/li>\n<li>G2 has recently named Sophos the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/en-us\/2023\/01\/12\/sophos-mdr-is-the-1-rated-mdr-service-by-g2-peer-reviews\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">top overall MDR solution<\/a> in their Winter 2023 Report (Q4\u20192022), rating us above ten other providers<\/li>\n<li>Check out our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gartner.com\/reviews\/market\/managed-detection-and-response-services\/vendor\/sophos\/product\/sophos-managed-detection-and-response-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hundreds of independent, verified reviews<\/a>\u00a0to hear what our customers say about our service<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>#1 for Scalable SOC Coverage<\/h2>\n<p>Another important metric to consider when evaluating MDR services is the number of people behind the protection.
