Windows 8 Support For Sophos Full Disk Encryption Through the Sophos Enterprise Console

Windisch

Pretty much what the subject says.  We have Sophos Full Disk Encryption through the Enterprise Console.  I know the current version we're on does not support it, but I see Safeguard itself does.  Is there an update out for the console that I don't see, or is the update coming soon?

Thanks,

  Adam

    I am running into this same issue - trying to encrypt a disk on a Windows 8.1 machine and I get an error that the platform is not supported. I am using the Enterprise console. In the previous repose it is mentioned that there should have been an email sent to users regarding having to use a different product but we have not seen an email like that here where I work. So, I have a couple of questions:

    1. Should all customers using enterprise console have received the email or are there only certain types of accounts? I'm assuming all users should have but want to clarify.

    2. Will EC ever support this feature for Windows 8 (it appears not from your wording in you previous response but just want to double check)?

    I understand we can migrate all encryption management to the new system but we still have to manage the rest of the protection from the EC correct? Our main purpose for purchasing this software was to manage everything from one interface and it's kind of disheartening to find out that we can no longer do that.

    Please let me know so that we can make informed decisions on how to move forward.

    Thanks,

    Michael
