Migrate Server to Securty VM - Seems not protected??

Hello!

since 2 years it seems we have a bad use of Sophos Central on our environnement, i installed Sophos Endpoint Server "full" version on our VM on Windows server 2016.

 

I found this guide yesterday : https://docs.sophos.com/esg/Sophos-Virtual-Environments/1-3/central-startup/en-us/sve_central_sg.html and i deployed the Security VM. On many servers i uninstaleld the full version Enpoint to the light version (installed on the public share), i can see the VM in the log ProtectedGVMs.log with ip and name on the Security VM Console but i have 2 questions :

 

- Now Guest VM isn't visible on the Sophos Central (???), how can i manage it? How can i apply a specific policy to a specific VM? 

- In the link describing the installation of the Security VM and Guest VM Agent, it's written that we can verifiy the good  working of the Guest Agent if i look in Security and Maintenance, i normally will see Sophos for Virtual Enronnements is enabled but nothing visible. 

 

 

This example VM is been market as Portected in the Console Securty VM.

Can you help me?


Thanks

  • I trying to create a Threath Policy for WSUS VM because since i installed SOphos VM on it, the service stopped working correctly but when i create the policy i can't select the VM i want but just the Security VM, how can i apply the threat policty to just one VM? 

     

    Thanks

  • Hi  

    Unfortunately, Guest VMs can't be selected in the policies. Threat protection policy will only apply to Security VMs as they are the ones who are going to handle the scanning of the Guest VMs. 

    When you have done any exception for any of the Security VM, it will be applicable for all the Guest VMs comes under that particular Security VM. If you want to have any particular scanning exclusions for any Guest VM, you need to install different Security VM for that Guest VM through which you can achieve your goal.
