Keep ransomware at bay with Sophos Managed Threat Response

“In a year marked by devastating ransomware attacks and other advanced threats, bulletproof endpoint protection has never been more critical,” said Dan Schiappa, chief product officer at Sophos. “Nearly 40 percent of organizations surveyed in Sophos’ State of Ransomware 2021 report were hit with ransomware between 2020 and 2021, with total remediation costs from these attacks averaging nearly $2 million. Sophos is committed to turning this tide by arming organizations of all sizes and across all market segments with the industry’s best endpoint protection. This customer recognition, in our opinion, is validation of our dedication to developing the best endpoint protection to defend against adversaries.”

The Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice distinction recognizes vendors and products that are highly rated by their customers. Only vendors with at least 20 eligible reviews from end-users of companies with more than $50 million in revenue during the specified 18-month submission period are included.

Already this year, Sophos was named a Leader in the 2021 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms (EPP) for the 12th consecutive time.
