SecureWorks Auditor Profile

SecureWorks is a cybersecurity company founded in 1998 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Long majority-owned by Dell Technologies and publicly traded, the company was acquired by Sophos in February 2025 in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $859 million, and now operates as part of the combined Sophos organization.

The firm is best known for managed detection and response through its Taegis platform, but it also maintains a consulting practice covering compliance consulting, cyber risk assessments, security program maturity reviews, and incident readiness. Advisory work commonly maps client environments against frameworks such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and ISO 27001.

With well over a thousand employees globally, SecureWorks serves mid-market and enterprise organizations across technology, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and government. It fits organizations that want risk and compliance advisory bundled with large-scale managed security operations rather than a standalone boutique assessment firm.
