Group per policy
Hi
I want to be able to apply an allowed group to users for specifically DVD drives and Mobile devices.
I have ended up creating 3 separate policies because you can only assign 1 group to a user.
Can you not make it a feature so if we want to create a dvd allow policy we can just add dvd to the policy for that group without having to block everything else?
thanks

Recognize Bitlocker Encryption in Peripheral Control
I would like to be able allow and/or add device exceptions based on whether the removable storage device is encrypted with Bitlocker. These should be considered by Sophos as "Secure removable storage".

Peripheral Control Policy in Sophos Central
When the Peripheral Control Policy is set to Control access by peripheral type and add exemptions, categories for devices that are set to Allowed should continue to log as events for those computers to know what is still being connected to them, just like it did when Monitor but do not block (all peripherals will be allowed) was defined. When the policy is set to Control, it only logs events for blocked devices which isn't helpful to audit what else might be getting connected to the computer that is being allowed and may want to be blocked after review.

wireless
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.

Combine different USB device control exeption lists (policy) / Export-Import
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.

Sizable Device Control exception Windows
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.

3rd Party Application installation and Patch Management. Location awareness with device and web policy
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.1 vote -
[Device Control] - possibility to block usb-to-ethernet adapter
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.12 votes -
Allow USB Device by ID AND per User
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).

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

Pop up that suggest the election of scan or not scan a USB Device
If Sophos can detect and block the USB devices, I think that Sophos can add a Window message to help the users to Scan the USB keys when this is connected to PC. With this manner if the user have selected the option once, for example, when connected the first time to the PC the second or next times he can cancel the process.
The Sophos message is "Simplicity" and the idea is provide a "Simple" option to users to scan your USB's or other medias when it's are connected to the Pc's.

Block the Executable Files in Device Control
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).

Device Control - USB Devices
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.
