Case Study: Executech streamlines security operations with Sophos Firewall

Executech standardizes 1,000 firewalls with Sophos

Executech, a large MSP serving over 45,000 endpoints, faced operational burdens and security risks from using fragmented firewall solutions like SonicWall and Fortinet across its customer base. The challenge included emergency patching cycles and handling vulnerabilities, which prompted them to seek a new standard solution from their vendor, Sophos.

By standardizing on Sophos Firewall, Executech integrated it with their existing Sophos MDR to create a unified security ecosystem. The solution provided automatic updates, eliminated manual patching, and allowed the MDR team to proactively block threats. This resulted in streamlined operations, a significant reduction in high-severity vulnerabilities, and proven threat prevention, enabling Executech to deploy a full Sophos hardware stack for all new customers.
