SOPHOS ENDPOINT SECURITY AND DATA PROTECTION REVIEWER’S GUIDE

At the click of a mouse, you can:

• Filter the view to focus on those computers with out-of-date protection

or with malware alerts, giving you instant visibility of the areas on your

network that require attention.

• Adjust the dashboard thresholds at which the status colours will change.

• Enable automatic email alerts to be sent when your deﬁned security

thresholds are close.

These features mean you don’t have to log in to the console to be alerted to

potential security issues.

By default, malware alerts are also displayed on the desktop of any computer

on which malware, PUAs, or unauthorized applications have been found. Email

and SNMP alerts can also be sent to you or speciﬁc users if a virus, a PUA, or

an error is found on any of the computers in a group. Any viruses detected on

the computer will be displayed as hyperlinks, which lead to the relevant entry

in the virus library on the Sophos website.

Keeping track of critical events

When an application control, ﬁrewall, data control, or device control event

occurs on an endpoint computer, for example, an application has been blocked

by the ﬁrewall, that event is sent to Enterprise Console and can be viewed in

the respective event viewer.

Using the event viewers, you can quickly and easily investigate events that

have occurred on the network. You can also generate a list of events based on

a ﬁlter you conﬁgure, for example, a list of all data control events for the past

seven days generated by a certain user.

The number of computers with events over a speciﬁed threshold within the last

seven days is displayed on the dashboard. You can also set up alerts to be sent

to your chosen recipients when an event has occurred.

At-a-glance dashboard

The ability to view problem areas

at a glance is a major advantage,

and automatic email alerts are

sent when security thresholds

are triggered.
