Former British security outfit Sophos has achieved Amazon Web Services (AWS) Level 1 Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) Competency status and is apparently the first to be named a Level 1 MSSP Competency programme partner. Parse that, if you can.
Scott Barlow, Sophos vice president of global MSP and cloud alliances said that it has never been more critical for organisations adopting cloud services to optimise their security “posture”, block advanced threats, and have expert resources available to monitor environments all the time, to stay secure.
As an AWS Level 1 MSSP Competency program partner, Sophos’ managed security services are validated by AWS across six security domains: threat detection and response; vulnerability management; cloud security best practices and compliance; network security; host and endpoint security; and application security. Clear?
