For the entire Sophos team, Her Majesty\u2019s recognition of our contributions to cybersecurity was deeply valued and appreciated.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_86774\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86774\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-and-Peter-Lammer-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-86774 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-and-Peter-Lammer-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-and-Peter-Lammer-2.jpg 400w, https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-and-Peter-Lammer-2.jpg?resize=300,199 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-86774\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Queen, Prince Phillip and Dr. Peter Lammer, Sophos Co-founder<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The visit, as you would expect, required extensive and careful planning. The Queen\u2019s team asked to speak with our security team as part of the preparations. However, both sides understood the term \u2018security\u2019 in different ways and the resulting meeting between the Sophos cyberthreat experts and the royal personal protection squad drew amused smiles all round.<\/p>\n<p>During her visit, Her Majesty took the time to meet with many of the Sophos team and develop her understanding of cybersecurity. We welcomed the opportunity to discuss the challenges facing defenders and share our commitment to protecting organizations around the globe from ever-growing cyber threats.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_86773\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86773\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-meeting-Sophos-staff.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-86773 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-meeting-Sophos-staff.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-meeting-Sophos-staff.jpg 400w, https:\/\/news.sophos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Queen-meeting-Sophos-staff.jpg?resize=300,170 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-86773\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Queen met Sophos staff during her visit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Much has changed both at Sophos and in the wider threat landscape since Her Majesty\u2019s visit.
