Sophos, a global cybersecurity firm, has partnered with UK-based specialist insurance broker Capsule to simplify and enhance access to cyber insurance for businesses using Sophos’ solutions via managed service providers (MSPs).
The programme offers discounted premiums, fast-track application processes, and comprehensive coverage, including pre-approved incident response services.
It aims to meet growing demand from small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) struggling with complex insurance requirements, helping MSPs better support their clients.
Capsule co-founder and chief operating officer Liam Green said, “Cybersecurity and cyber insurance can no longer operate in silos — they must work together to create measurable risk reduction for businesses. This partnership is built on a simple idea: businesses that are proactively reducing their cyber risk exposure should be proactively rewarded by their insurer to reflect that effort. At Capsule, we’ve always believed insurance should feel like an enabler, not a barrier. That means making policies easier to access, more reflective of the protections already in place, and more dependable when it matters most. By combining Sophos’ frontline threat intelligence our own broking expertise, we’re creating a cyber insurance solution that’s practical, joined-up, and built around what clients actually need — confidence, continuity, and a trusted team ready to help when something goes wrong.”
Sophos senior vice president, worldwide channels and alliances, Chris Bell said,
“Sophos is already the cybersecurity provider of choice for MSPs across the UK, offering the most comprehensive portfolio of market-leading cybersecurity solutions on the market. With this partnership we are extending the benefits available to customers that use Sophos solutions through an MSP while also making it easier for MSPs to support their customers’ cyber insurance needs. Automatic discounts for the use of Sophos cyber controls, including Sophos managed detection and response (MDR), reward proactive risk reduction while streamlined MSP-friendly support in the event of a cyber incident provide peace of mind while minimising customer disruption.”
