UTM Device Control

Heli0s over 10 years ago

I have two questions about the UTM device control feature:

[LIST=1]

Does the Device Control feature stop all USB devices or just storage devices?
Is it possible to create a list of approved devices and have the endpoint protection only allow those devices?

The delay is due to how the Endpoint system works in UTM. The Endpoints never "talk" directly to the UTM or vice-versa. There's Sophos Broker server in the "cloud" between the two, so communication looks like this:

UTM ----> Broker ----> Endpoints
Endpoints ----> Broker ----> UTM

This means there will always be a delay in transfer of data between the two.

So does that mean that I can change policies, device control policies, authorized devices, etc., and have them take effect even if the devices is not on my network?
