New Computer Policy - Apply to all Computers ?

Playing around with a trial version of Sophos Central atm, and after messing around with the BASE Policy a little, I have broken out the peripheral control into its own policy to make it a little more intuitive for our admin's.

But unlike the base policy, the new one seems to rely on being assigned to a computer or computer group to apply. Is there a way to create a dynamic computer group which will have all computers in it. Or create a policy which applies to every computer (like the BASE policy) ?

  • Hi Aaron, 

    Welcome to Sophos, as for your query the policy applied to the systems is user's based. So, in other words, the policy cannot be changed as per the machine based policy. For Machine based policy we have Server Protection that can manage machine based policy disregard the users logged onto that system.

  • if this is true, why does the endpoint security have the option to create computer groups?  Also, why does the computer groups screen have a tab labeled "Policies" which displays the policies applied to those computers?  This would imply that the policies can/should be changed based on computer and/or computer groups.
