2025 was a challenging year for IT providers. MSPs had to hustle while facing talent shortages, new AI demands, inflation, and supply chain issues.

An #MSP admin gets tricked by a fake #MFA prompt. Attackers grab credentials, bypass MFA, and hit customers with ransomware. This isn’t new, but it’s still working. Using RMM tools? Read the @Sophos blog to learn the risks and how to protect. https://t.co/GVf0FgPQin

“We’ll upgrade later” isn’t a strategy—it’s a risk.
In 2024, 62% of breached servers ran outdated OSs. That’s not a bad look—it’s an open door.

Kicking off Pax8 Security Bootcamp in Chicago this week! From the interactive format to the strong @Sophos and @Pax8 partnership, I'm looking forward to a great few days with everyone. #Sophos #SophosPartner https://t.co/zAzZxeYRW1

[Scott Barlow @Scottjbarlow]

Accountability drives success for #MSPs. It’s about trust, clear roles, and processes that prevent chaos. Add visibility from dashboards, and your team has the foundation to focus on what matters most. @ChannelE2E has more: #CyberSecurity https://t.co/q2qhSY2igM

[Scott Barlow @Scottjbarlow]

If the @Sophos 2025 Active Adversary Report shows us one thing, it’s that staying ready beats reacting late. John Shier shared with @ChannelInsider how #MDR cuts dwell time to stop threats fast. When was the last time you evaluated your defenses?

Ransomware isn’t new, but AI is taking it to a dangerous new level. Cybercriminals are smarter, faster, and targeting smaller businesses, and prevention beats recovery every time. Hear more from @Sophos Field CTO Aaron Bugal (@AzRoN1979) via @cyberdailyau: https://t.co/iMPvH4S2Jm

[Scott Barlow @Scottjbarlow]

The @Sophos #MSP program has evolved since 2016, and our mission holds strong: help MSPs grow, save, and run smarter. With @Secureworks + @Pax8, we’re enabling MSPs to thrive and say "Yes, we’ve got this." Catch my @ChannelFutures interview! SophosPartners https://t.co/6aPLhtGQpB

[Scott Barlow @Scottjbarlow]

AI should make #security teams better, not replace them. At @Sophos, we’ve been refining #AI for years to cut through noise and find real threats—fast. Chester Wisniewski shares more in this @CRN interview. Check it out! #Sophos #Cybersecurity https://t.co/kI8do7UsvI

It takes five seconds to spot #phishing red flags — time that could save you from a long, expensive headache in the future. Be careful where you click and look out for an unusual sense of urgency or offers that seem too good to be true.

[Scott Barlow @Scottjbarlow]

Proud to see @Sophos named an #XDR leader by @ChannelFutures! Integrating @Secureworks tech has elevated how we connect the dots, automate tasks, and empower smarter, faster security. Thanks to our partners & customers for trusting #Sophos! https://t.co/QbtS0bueai

SOC teams face a flood of alerts, and it’s more than a time waster. @Sophos CTO Chester Wisniewski breaks down how #AI complements human expertise to help teams focus on real threats. Don’t miss his interview in @helpnetsecurity for practical insights: https://t.co/sTxYmJ23v5

[Scott Barlow @Scottjbarlow]

Remote ransomware attacks jumped 50% in 2024, and attackers are exploiting gaps with remote encryption. It’s not just a trend; it’s a challenge we must solve. See what @Sophos X-Ops recommends for staying ahead.

Thrilled to join the @Sophos #MSP team in Vegas for #CPExpo! Booth #1050 is the spot for smarter security tools like #MDR and #EDR. Don't miss Stacy Whitley and a fantastic group of panelists for the Cybersecurity Deep Dive on Wed, 3/26. See you this week! https://t.co/AxqAES3D6a

[Scott Barlow @Scottjbarlow]

Outcomes are what matter most in #cybersecurity. New @Sophos research shows #MDR users report 97.5% fewer claims and recover from attacks in just 3 days vs. 40 days with endpoint-only protection. That kind of impact is hard to ignore! Check out our blog: https://t.co/FTuoVt6nJh
