Sophos is a Magic Quadrant Leader in Unified Threat Management for the 4th year in a row

GartnerWe’re excited to announce that the new Gartner Magic Quadrant for Unified Threat Management* is out, and Sophos is positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for the fourth year in a row.

We’re now one of only three vendors in the Leaders Quadrant. And we think that says a lot about our standing in the eyes of customers, partners and industry analysts. What are we doing that’s made Sophos a Leader for the past four years?

The Magic Quadrant is based on an assessment of a company’s ability to execute and completeness of vision. We believe our strategy for the mid-market and our channel is working just as we hoped; and we’re delivering on our promise to make security simple with a UTM that is super easy to deploy, manage, and use.

We have an exciting and innovative product roadmap, and in a short time we’ll be revealing the next chapter in the development of our award-winning and market leading UTM.

More and more partners and customers are turning to Sophos, because we keep on winning in the marketplace, and our compelling vision for Sophos UTM and our Next-Generation Firewall means we’ll continue to build the best network security products for years to come.

The momentum in our UTM business just keeps on going, and our continuing growth is astonishing – more than double the rate of the rest of the market.

As the only IT security company to be positioned as a Leader across three key areas of security – Unified Threat Management (UTM), Mobile Data Protection** and Endpoint Protection Platforms*** – we think our complete security offerings make us stand out from the crowd.
