Feature Request - Allow POA Logon Setting to Change Domain/PA Dropdown Option

JesseLa Grew

Currently, we do not use the SSO features for Sophos Safegaurd and wish to maintain separate credentials. However, all users need to manually change the drop-down option on the POA screen to use POA rather than the Windows domain. It will assist the end-users if they did not need to do this every time. We would like to be able to change this feature, but it does not appear that this is currently possible.


Will this be possible in future releases?

    Hi Jesse,

    <POA> users for SafeGuard POA logon were introduced for administrative tasks (for example members of the IT team), so that users could log on at the SafeGuard Power-on Authentication on endpoints without having to initiate a Challenge/Response procedure.

    We already discussed this in a previous feature request but did not implement it. Reason was that there is the risk that the normal users could be confused if the User/Domain preselection policy would also remember the "<POA>", after administrative staff would have used a <POA> account - resulting in login failures for normal users if the domain is not switched manually.
