Sophos is a global leader and innovator of advanced security solutions for defeating cyberattacks.

The company acquired Secureworks, bringing together two pioneers that have redefined the cybersecurity industry with their innovative, native AI-optimized services, technologies and products.

Sophos sells all these solutions through reseller partners, Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) worldwide, defending more than 600,000 organizations worldwide from phishing, ransomware, data theft, other everyday and state-sponsored cybercrimes.
