Sophos launches first UK distie deal with Arrow

Security outfit Sophos has struck a UK distribution agreement with Arrow Electronics.

Under the agreement, the first in the UK for Sophos, Arrow will distribute Sophos’ portfolio of business security stuff and services that help protect users, networks and endpoints against ransomware, malware, exploits, phishing and other cyberattacks.

Sophos vice president of sales in Northern Europe Jonathan Bartholomew said: “Arrow has an established reputation as a global supply chain partner, helping businesses to harness the power of complex and innovative technologies. As such, they can now expand our reach to MSPs and resellers, arming them with our innovative portfolio of next-generation products and threat response services that offer organizations of all sizes better protection against fast-changing cyberattacks.”

Arrow will support the scale of Sophos’ operations by introducing automated ordering, cloud marketplaces, and new finance options, amongst many other benefits. It will also allow the Sophos sales team to focus on providing new projects and support and it hopes will further building customer trust in the security provider and help increase sales.
