Sophos Endpoint Protection for macOS and JAMF

Hello All,

As im sure you all must know, the "Download Complete macOS Installer" is in fact not the "complete" installer, and is only a Sophos Installer.app with specific information regarding the account to register it to in the SophosCloudConfig.plist file.

This would be all fine and well, if not for trying to deploy this via JAMF and push it to remote users, without having to do a remote session to install it, one by one.

Has anyone come up with a way to accomplish this via JAMF?

Sorry if this is a "newb" question. I'm new to mac MDM stuff.

  • Just an FYI, that first link is a bit outdated. Some of those checks for the uninstall locations no longer exist or were changed in later versions including the Endpoint Protection (Cloud) and probably aren't relevant unless you had a full version stand-alone install and switched to Sophos Central (we did and I based our first script on that to remove the older versions prior to kicking off the Sophos Central version of the installer.)

    The 2nd link is the exact same one I posted.

    As of 24 hours ago, that method wasn't working for me nor the "new" Mac Sophos installer noted here:

    The original Mac installing just before the above version continues to work flawlessly, both using the JAMF discussion method and stand alone.  Just putting that out there in case someone tries the "new" installer, version 1.1.0 as I write and runs into issues.
