The cybersecurity market is undergoing a seismic shift, driven by two forces: the acceleration of cloud migration and the weaponization of AI by cybercriminals. A Microsoft analysis highlights that 52% of cyberattacks in 2025 are motivated by extortion or ransomware, with attackers using AI to automate phishing campaigns and generate synthetic content. SMBs, which often lack the budget for robust security teams, are particularly vulnerable. 

Yet this crisis also creates an opportunity. As SoftServe and Microsoft state, the demand for secure cloud and AI integration is surging, with SMBs increasingly seeking "security-bundles" that offer enterprise-grade protection at affordable prices. Sophos' integration with Microsoft's ecosystem directly addresses this need. By bundling its threat intelligence with Microsoft's AI tools, Sophos positions itself as a one-stop solution for SMBs looking to balance productivity and security.
