SGN Product Enhancement Suggestions

vojta

Might be a good idea to star this list early so it's in early. My wishlist

- Better AD synchronization (automated, configurable schedule, and built into MC)

- "Policy for a slider" - meaning give user the option via policy to control how fast they want to encrypt the HD. Of course if this policy is disable user cannot control that (aka today's status). Giving the users a little power will simplify the deployment of such invasive product

- Better policy stamping on the client. Today you can see "Last Received" but that's misleading as policy might not have been changed for long before that. I would rather see a hashmark or some kind of name where I could match the server policy name with the client (the date should be in the name)

    Here is my list.

     
    The ability to change passwords in AD and have them sync out to the endpoints.  Still can't see the security reason for this not being possible.  If someone changes an AD password to gain access to a encrypted laptop, them not being able to use that encrypted laptop is the least of my worries as they have access to AD.

    If the above isn't an option then an agent that can sit on the unencrypted clients to enable users to change their passwords on any kit in our organisation.  This can be achieved at the moment by installing 5.5 client and not encrypting, but this uses a licence.  An agent that doesn't need an expensive licence would be a great feature.

    Simplify the console.  There are too many ways to perform the same task, some work, some don't.  Get it sorted.

    AD sync needs to be better thought out.

     
    Integration into the AV management console.

    Better use of groups to control the admins that need access to every endpoint.  For example if I add our admin group to the endpoints then change that group it should update automatically rather than me having to re add that group to every endpoint.


    Last but not least, maybe Sophos shoud buy Truecrypt and drop this product.

    I've been supporting safeguard easy for years and although not centrally managed its been a fantastic product with no issues over 3 years.  So I know you guys can get it right.  Maybe you've over thought/complicated the whole thing with enterprise.
