Sophos is still does not disable bridging i.e. disabling the Wifi NIC when the LAN NIC is plugged in and the opposite - enabling Wifi when the NIC cable is removed.

We need the option to combine the exceptions from two oder more different USB device exception lists (Policy).

Or simply export the exception list of a policy and import (add) the list to another policy.

Make the Device Control "Add Peripheral Exemptions" window sizable to see the ID, username and other valubles in full length. Its really hard to compare a ID with a mouse over.

Also add filters or search fields to search for a MODEL or ID or a specific username.

Ability to block certain file types running from a USB device like .bat or .exe files.

This is a mandatory requirement that has come up for us consider 4000 nodes of our endpoints switching from Kaspersky. The present end point provides us a facility create automatic update task for all Microsoft and 3rd party updates which are critical or approved by administrator so that we can fix vulnerabilities. Also we can deploy 3rd party software using same to client machines.
Also it also has a feature to enable multiple policies like "In Office Policy", "Out of Office Policy", etc so that we can have multiple web and device control policies which are critical to our business.

Currently you cannot block usb-to-ethernet adapter.
There are several usb-key attack-scenarios which use the ethernet emulation to sniff ntlm-hashes from a windows PC. Is there also a possibiliry to an option to block media devices like usb keyboards, usb mouse and/or cameras? Or an option to create your own device classes.

Central Endpoint: Is it possible to add a "layout" to except USB Devices by ID combined with a Person? So the Basic Policy could block any USB Device and Exceptions are made by Person instead of a Policy which allows the Device for many Computers or Users. So the exceptions is one by one (Device ID & User).

Sophos Can block Wireless, But cannot block Mobile Hotspot running on WIN 10. This is a great feature to have.

Thanks!

Enable Fast user switching on Safeguard, so that administrator users can access the computer without closing the current user's session

Disable Sophos automatically resetting windows security settings (e.g. UAC)

This is causing an issue whereby when Sophos identifies a problem, it resets windows security settings and turns UAC back on. The environment requires UAC be turned off.

You can currently turn this off via per-pc registry key, see:
https://community.sophos.com/products/endpoint-security-control/f/sophos-endpoint-software/90238/window-security-options-being-reset-during-remediation

This would be ideally managable from the enterprise console

To combat the unknow malware (mainly don't detected by Sophos) a new Device Control option as "Block the Executable Files" can help to protect the network without lost the functionality to copy/read/delete other documents from this medias. In the business the users generally uses your USB's to transport documents (word, excel, ppt, txt, etc).

This was suggested by LINCK in community https://community.sophos.com/products/endpoint-security-control/f/sophos-endpoint-software/155/automatic-scan-of-removable-media#pi2151=1

Is it possible to be able to restrict access to USB's by a unique ID - such as serial number?? Currently you can restrict by model but that doesn't stop an employee bringing in their own USB stick if it is the same make and model we use??

Basically we want to be able to issue USB sticks out to staff and only allow those precise devices to connect. Not any device that happens to be the same model.

Selection "All" for "Modell-ID" (Problems by bluetooth mouse MX Anywhere 2/changing Modell-ID daly)
Select "ALL - Modell-I"D for XY.. -Device-ID.

[DEVICE CONTROL] Exempted device usage logs (Who used the device? On what machine? When? What device has been used - Device ID and Device type? Etc.)

[DATA CONTROL] Device IDs should be included on the data control logs (Specific for Removable Storages)

It would be nice to add a comment field to the Peripheral Exemption List giving users the ability to leave a comment about the device. Users could leave a comment on who owns this device or why the device was allowed.

As per existing device control policy,Either we can allow or block any Bluetooth device under Device control policy but cant keep allowed by default only Secured Bluetooth device (which doesn't has mass storage)

Can we allow only to secured Bluetooth device by default & block to only mass storage Bluetooth devices?

Kindly confirm on this

We have already set the default policy for
device control and these policies are applied on one of the particular group, but
when user from this group wants to access printer or dongle such devices are
getting blocked as they are not storage devices. Every time we need to exempt those
devices . Our concern is that we want these devices(Printer, Scanner, Dongle)
allow automatically for the user without need of any exemption. and this feature is not available on Sophos antivirus.

Kindly provide solution for it asap.
