OpenText ZENworks Full Disk Encryption vs. Sophos Central Device Encryption

It is mid-level when it comes to running it by a non-IT person. I have no technical/IT training and can figure out on my own (or with a little web search) how to do most tasks. It may not be best for the very tech-challenged operator.

• Centralised portal for both Anti Virus and Encryption
• Internet-facing with the ability for global / multi region access for large organizations
• Multi-level, built-in admin roles for different access levels for your Support Team. Also, you can define new roles to tailor to your organization

Incentivized

• Interface is a little difficult to get Hands On. It can be simplified for better adaptability
• XDR compatibility should be enhanced
• More simplified white-books should be provided to train the non tech teams
• Commercially also the cost should be improved for different industry segments

I am pretty satisfied with Sophos Central Device Encryption's overall capabilities. It is easy to implement and ultimately brings more peace of mind because fewer tickets are generated. As a result, security within the organization is also improved. Another significant advantage is that you can quickly see the statuses in real time on the dashboards. This gives you a better overview and reduces the chance of missing minor security settings.

At that time, we chose Sophos based on the reputation and our partnership with our partner. And in general Sophos could give us more benefit than other competitors with the similar solution. However we do not feel comfortable to disclose information about comparison with other solutions. Despite that, we think Sophos could deliver our requirements very well with the cost that were reasonable for us.

Incentivized

• It's had a positive impact as it's allowed us to effectively secure hard drives with bitlocker encryption
• A larger part of our work force works from home, and Sophos can be deployed remotely and will start encryption almost straight away on any computer that isn't already encrypted.
