Sophos has announced its fiscal year 2020 awards for top performing channel partners in the Middle East and Africa.

The annual awards recognize partners for their significant sales achievements, initiatives that grow their own and Sophos’ business, and a commitment to adding-value to customers.

“As cyber threats increase in volume and sophistication, it’s critical that frontline channel partners are armed with the industry’s best cybersecurity solutions, technical expertise, and deep knowledge of the changing threat landscape to best secure their customers,” says Harish Chib, vice-president: Middle East and Africa at Sophos.

“This year’s winners are unsung heroes who have clearly differentiated themselves as trusted security advisors, and we’re thrilled to recognize their success.”

Sophos is a 100% channel focused business that helps partners secure organisations with next-generation cybersecurity solutions.

Every year, Sophos recognises partners across the Middle East and Africa that went above and beyond to sell Sophos’ solutions, including synchronized security, and developed a deeper level of expertise to strengthen customer defenses against cyberattacks.
