Sophos named a Leader in the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms
We are pleased to announce that Sophos has been named a Leader in the 2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms (EPP), marking the company’s 14th consecutive recognition as a Leader in this category.
Consistent leadership position
This year’s Gartner Magic Quadrant report provides a comprehensive evaluation of the most widely adopted endpoint protection solutions, including Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and Managed Detection and Response (MDR).
Since the first publication of the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms in 2007, Sophos has not only maintained its leadership position but has consistently reinforced its dominance in this segment. Its continued focus on a protection-first approach is a key factor in maintaining this leadership status. Even in an evolving threat landscape, Sophos continues to keep organizations of all sizes protected against modern attacks, with customers benefiting from recent innovations such as adaptive attack protection. This approach dynamically strengthens defenses when active adversary behavior is detected on endpoint devices.
Expanding integrations for more effective detection and response
In 2023, Sophos significantly expanded its XDR and MDR offerings by adding new integrations with a wide range of third-party security tools — from identity and network security solutions to firewalls, email security, and cloud technologies. These third-party integrations for Sophos XDR and MDR provide greater visibility across key attack surfaces, enabling organizations to maximize the return on their existing security investments.
Enhanced detection and response through third-party interoperability
Advanced detection and response capabilities become even more effective thanks to expanded interoperability with third-party solutions. These integrations allow Sophos XDR and MDR to build, enrich, filter, correlate, and prioritize detected threats. This delivers greater value from third-party tools compared to solutions that rely solely on endpoint telemetry. Faster detection and response are achieved through broader ecosystem compatibility.
Extended MDR coverage for Microsoft solutions
Sophos has further expanded its MDR service coverage to include the full Microsoft security stack, providing comprehensive protection. More than 500 Sophos security experts ensure 24/7 monitoring, investigation, and effective incident response for organizations using Microsoft solutions.
In a world of continuous cyber threats, Sophos continues to set new standards in cybersecurity, providing customers with reliable and effective protection where security is the highest priority. Our 14th consecutive leadership position in the Gartner Magic Quadrant is only the beginning, and we remain committed to further developing and improving our solutions to ensure security in the digital world.
