I need to be able to encrypt all USB drives that get connected to our systems. We have a lot of users who backup up to external drives, which could easily be stolen. Also need to encrypt any usb flash drives that are being used as well. This is a high priority.

Please increase development effort on the re-engineering of DLP so it does not use the AppInit_DLLs and therefore can have Secure Boot enabled.

Microsoft post in May 2018:

The AppInitDLLs mechanism is not a recommended approach for legitimate applications because it can lead to system deadlocks and performance problems.
The AppInitDLLs mechanism is disabled by default when secure boot is enabled.
Using AppInit_DLLs in a Windows 8 desktop app is a Windows desktop app certification failure.

When creating a rule you should be able to select who recieve the email alerts. Either as an individual or to a Distribution Group. Currently you either get all or nothing through the global settings, this should be added as a feature when defining the rule as to who recieves the alerts

It would be great if DLP could scan the clipboard, and in and outbound email for text matching the bank details profile.

At the moment it only scans files containing card data, I would like to see it cover a more broad number of scenarios.

We have found that users would be more likely to write or copy card details into the body of an email, then they are to go to the lengths of creating a file, adding the details, saving the file, and emailing it.

Thanks

The SGMTrace-Logging could be "acitivated" and "deactivated" (= changing Minimumtracelevel from 5a to 0 and back) via buttons in the about-box of SGN.

Allow wildcards in Ignored applications, instead of having to enter the literal path for excluded applications. In our case we have to include java for preformance reasons, and there are dozens of versions, with new versions being added regurarly, wich requires inervention for every new version. Allowing wildcards would make life allot easyer.

It is a SGN MC recovery feature and should also be available via Webhelpdesk.

Support Microsoft Edge as a Browser Destination for DLP. This is the default browser for Windows 10, and it cannot be removed.

The browser destination features of DLP are severely limited without this.

In DLP Alerts, is it possible to include the full path to where the file was being Moved/Copied?

Please add the Filterdriver Support for Domain-DFS Namespaces with FQDN Access in the Windows Explorer in SGN 8.10, in 8.00.5 it already works.
If the user access the share with FQDN, it is able to DECRYPT the data in 8.10, because the Filterdriver obviously does not interpret FQDN-Paths.
In 8.00.5 it was possible to define FQDN Paths both in SGMC and in the Windows Explorer on Client Side.

Example:
\domain.fqdn\dfs\share --> Does not work in SGN 8.10
\domain\dfs\share --> works in SGN 8.10

Under our old Sophos system, the source path would show on the Data Loss Prevention Report. We switched to Sophos Central and now I am being told that option is no longer available. The source path is very useful to have on the report and Executive Management used it frequently. We need to have the option to add the source path to the report.

Wish the report function in SGN server can retrieved the total amount (how many of them) and the details of the folders/files (what folder/file names) under each filebase encryption policy. It will be good for reporting and presentable to clients.

Although Google Drive Encryption files is supported by Sophos, FileStream it is not. It would liberate resources from computer as it is not mandatory to have files downloaded. As Safe Guard 8.1 encrypts files in local it doesn't work with this cloud resource.
Dropbox has a similar resource.

Support deployment via a 'Gold Image' for use within a Citrix XenDesktop persistent or non-persistent desktop environment. Similar to the methods used with other Sophos products such as EndPoint - https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/120560

How can i identify unclassified data used

Please add back support for cliënt installations on Virtualization platforms, as of now customers with a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure are unable to use Safeguard v8.1, ESX(i) and Hyper-V are not supported. I use Virtualbox to test set-ups and give demonstrations.

Virtualization platform support.
The SafeGuard Client only supports VMware Workstation and Player as virtualization platform. All other platforms like VMware ESX/ESXi Server, Microsoft Virtual PC, Microsoft Hyper-V are not supported. VirtualBox is incompatible with SafeGuard 8.1 and might cause BSODs (IRQLNOTLESSOREQUAL).
