Sophos' Cloud Security Provider program (CSP) enables partners to develop, implement and manage Sophos security solutions for the public cloud.
"We are delighted with this CSP certification by Sophos," said Raf De Backer, Director of Professional Services at Rank 1. "At the moment, there are very many Belgian companies considering a possible move to the cloud. SMEs in particular are wrestling with the question of whether to keep certain services still partially on-premises or move everything completely to the cloud. Many of these SMEs are looking for a reliable, flexible IT partner who can guide them with advice and the implementation of such a process. Rank 1 is one such party that carries out this process in a structured way for SMEs. Depending on the scope of the customer, we advise, among other things, on a partial or complete transition to the cloud."
The CSP program is an addition to Sophos' existing partner program. It enables Sophos partners to specialize in the area of public cloud security. The CSP program can provide competitive advantage.
Sophos' Public Cloud portfolio for the AWS and/or Azure environment includes Sophos' next-gen security products UTM (unified threat management), XG (firewalls) and Intercept X for Server (server protection).
