Sophos has unveiled a new, integrated Partner Program that unites its global ecosystem with Secureworks, offering expanded opportunities for partners to deliver advanced cybersecurity solutions, scale profitably, and drive customer success. The program introduces a flexible growth framework, powerful tools like an AI Sales Assistant, and access to a full suite of cutting-edge security products.
MALAYSIA, 1 AUGUST 2025 – Global cybersecurity leader Sophos has officially launched a next-generation Partner Program, bringing together the combined strengths of Sophos and Secureworks into a single, integrated ecosystem. The enhanced program is designed to empower more than 25,000 partners worldwide to scale their operations, increase profitability, and deliver world-class cybersecurity solutions.
“The new Sophos Partner Program is designed to reflect the way partners want to build and scale their business today,” said Chris Bell, SVP of Global Channel, Alliances, and Corporate Development at Sophos. “We are doubling down on our commitment to help partners lead in today’s dynamic cyber threat landscape.”
The new program streamlines and expands Sophos’ offerings across endpoint, network, email, cloud, XDR/MDR, Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR), and next-gen SIEM—accessible via the unified Sophos Central platform. This comprehensive portfolio is backed by premier consulting services and newly integrated sales and marketing resources.
Among the key highlights of the program:
- Unified Global Ecosystem: Combines Sophos and Secureworks partner networks to deliver broader product access and seamless cross-selling opportunities.
- Future-Focused Growth Framework: Enables faster scaling through revenue multipliers, flexible billing, and high-value incentives, including new certifications and guided onboarding via Sophos Academy.
- Enhanced Partner Tools: An AI Sales Assistant and improved partner portal streamline quoting, license management, compliance tracking, and opportunity management.
- Customer-Centric Support: Expands access to Partner Care, Customer Success, and Renewal teams while offering free certification training to partners.
Industry data from Canalys reveals that every $1 spent on cybersecurity products results in $2 in partner-delivered services—demonstrating the value of service-driven models. Sophos aims to position its partners to fully capitalize on this trend, especially as businesses face increasingly complex cyber threats and consolidate their security vendors.
