Sophos has officially launched MSP Elevate, a dynamic new program designed to help Managed Service Providers (MSPs) grow their business through cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions, simplified operations, and valuable partner rewards.
This initiative empowers MSPs to deliver more robust, differentiated cyber protection to their clients, while earning incentives and unlocking tools that accelerate business expansion. As cyber threats grow increasingly complex, demand for around-the-clock, expert-led cybersecurity is on the rise—making Managed Detection and Response (MDR) a critical service area. According to the Sophos MSP Perspectives 2024 report, 81% of MSPs already offer MDR.
MSP Elevate strengthens that offering by giving partners exclusive access to Sophos’ premium MDR services—helping them stand out and deliver superior protection with less operational strain.
🔐 Key Benefits of the MSP Elevate Program:
- Exclusive MDR Bundle Access
Partners gain access to Sophos MDR Complete, which includes 24/7 incident response, 1-year data retention, Network Detection and Response (NDR), and full integration packs. This enables advanced threat detection using telemetry across the customer’s full tech stack. - Streamlined Sales and Deployment
Simplify billing and setup with a single SKU that covers all current and future MDR needs—saving valuable time and reducing management overhead. - Discounted “Network-in-a-Box” Hardware
MSPs can access bundles including Sophos Firewall, Switch, and Wireless Access Points at reduced rates. All are seamlessly managed through Sophos Central, ensuring integrated threat response. - Growth-Based Rebates
Sophos rewards partners who grow their monthly billings with rebate incentives, supporting long-term collaboration and mutual success. - Advanced Training Opportunities
Gain access to expert-level training on Sophos Endpoint and Firewall to strengthen in-house capabilities. - Exclusive Sophos Summits Access
Join invite-only events for hands-on enablement, expert discussions, and direct interaction with Sophos leadership to help shape future strategies. - Ongoing Enhancements
Expect additional program benefits designed to boost MSP profitability, strengthen customer protection, and expand service value.
💡 Built to Tackle MSP Challenges
Many MSPs face time-consuming management of multiple cybersecurity platforms. In fact, consolidating tools could reduce their workload by up to 48%. MSP Elevate addresses this by centralizing operations through Sophos Central, freeing staff to focus on business growth.
Another major challenge is the shortage of skilled cybersecurity talent. Sophos’ automated solutions reduce this burden by responding to threats across environments in real time—offering enterprise-grade protection without additional staffing.
Chris Bell, Sophos SVP of Global Channel, Alliances, and Corporate Development, said:
“MSP Elevate is the first of many growth-focused programs following our merger with Secureworks. We’re a channel-first organization and proud to support our 250,000+ MSP-managed customers by investing in our partners’ success.”
🚀 Fast-Track to Trusted MDR Services
Sophos MDR is the most trusted MDR service by MSPs and currently protects more than 18,000 customer environments. It delivers unmatched insights into active threats and adapts as client infrastructures evolve—ensuring scalable, future-ready protection.
With 80% of MSPs already using a specialist vendor to deliver MDR, Sophos provides flexibility: MSPs can choose to have Sophos fully manage their MDR service or enhance their own teams, especially for after-hours coverage—crucial as 88% of ransomware attacks happen outside standard business hours (Sophos Active Adversary Report).
🎯 Program Access & Eligibility
MSPs interested in MSP Elevate must:
- Be part of the MSP Flex monthly billing program
