MDR Providers That Work With Sophos
7 MDR providers integrate with Sophos. 4 are technology-agnostic (they work with your existing Sophos deployment), while 3 are platform-native. SLA commitments range from ≤15 minutes to Not disclosed.
Sophos Integration Considerations
- •Sophos offers its own MDR service — third-party MDR integration is less common with the Sophos ecosystem
- •Ask whether the provider integrates with Sophos Central API or uses a separate agent alongside Sophos
- •Verify the provider can monitor Sophos Firewall events alongside endpoint telemetry
- •Check if the provider supports Sophos XDR data lake access for investigation

MSPs who need white-label MDR to resell
Barracuda Networks
Purpose-built for the MSP channel. Multi-tenant management, SentinelOne-powered endpoint security, and a 24/7 SOC make it a natural fit for MSPs serving SMB clients. Won multiple 2025 industry awards. Less proven for direct enterprise buyers, and detection claims lack independent validation.
What they do
MSP-channel MDR, autonomous SOC, no approval gates
Blackpoint Cyber
MSP-channel MDR with autonomous SOC response (self-reported 7-16 min MTTR) and patented network visualization. Trade-offs: MSP-only sales model, limited portal transparency, no approval controls, no MITRE validation.
What they do
SIEM+XDR you run yourself, no SOC required
Blumira
SIEM+XDR designed for small IT teams: free tier, per-employee pricing with unlimited ingestion, 75+ integrations, and pre-tuned detections that work out of the box. Trade-off: not a fully managed SOC -- customers must act on findings, and automated response is only on the Automate tier ($21/employee/month).
What they do
Under 1000 endpoints, no security team
Huntress
The MSP community's gold standard for SMB-focused MDR. 0.7% false positive rate with human-led SOC, 8-minute MTTR, follow-the-sun operations (US/UK/Australia), and a multi-product platform (EDR + ITDR + SIEM + SAT) that consolidates security for MSPs managing hundreds of clients.
What they do
Multi-vendor stack, want open XDR underneath
Secureworks
Enterprise-grade open XDR MDR with broad integration, CTU threat intelligence (now Sophos X-Ops), 100% MITRE ATT&CK visibility, and included unlimited remote IR. Post-Sophos acquisition: Taegis platform continuing with active investment (Sophos Endpoint integration, ITDR launch, free third-party integrations). Product quality respected. Main risk is whether Sophos — traditionally SMB-focused — will sustain enterprise Taegis investment long-term.
What they do
Mid-market wanting all-in pricing, no surprises
Sophos
350+ vendor integrations, inclusive full-scale incident response with no caps, $1M breach warranty with simple qualification, and top G2 rankings. Best suited for organizations with heterogeneous security stacks who want managed response without hidden fees.
What they do
Want IR and MDR from the same team, no handoff
Sygnia
The tightest MDR-to-IR integration available: same platform, same 8-person team handles both continuous monitoring and full incident response. No handoff, no separate retainer. Genuine OT/ICS coverage. Trade-offs: zero public reviews, no published detection metrics, opaque pricing, and recent CEO turnover.
