2 SINGLE, CENTRAL AUTOMATED CONSOLE REVIEWER’S GUIDE

smart views

Targeted cleanup

Cleaning up a large network after an attack can be expensive and time-

consuming. Enterprise Console provides remote, centralized cleanup of ﬁles,

registry entries, and running processes. Smart Views gives a complete view of

the security status of all computers on the network from one console, enabling

you to view and ﬁx only those computers that need attention, for example those

with out-of-date protection or those not complying with policy.

sophos update manager

Rapid updates, managed from a single point

The Sophos Update Manager ensures that the network is protected at all times

with automatic updating of your security software from Sophos. An update

manager is installed with and managed from Enterprise Console.

Once you have conﬁgured an update manager, it:

• Connects at a scheduled frequency to a data distribution warehouse at

Sophos or on your network.

• Downloads the relevant updates for the security software to which the

administrator has subscribed.

• Places the updated software in one or more network shares for installation on

endpoint computers.

The endpoints will then update automatically from the network shares, in line

with the updating policy you conﬁgure.
