  • The only real way to do this is turn it off in the general settings - but that disables for everyone. For specific devices - you can turn Tamper Protection off in the device page - one by one. Tamper Protection was specifically made to be difficult to turn off - to prevent unintentional exposure and risk of the endpoints.

  • Hi, I think you can use Live Discover to search in the registry by selecting Registry category:

    And then select de Query "Display registry section" like show below:

    And then in the fields marked below:

    You will enter:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos Endpoint Defense\TamperProtection\Config\SEDEnabled

    And run the query to the endpoints you want to. That Query will send you data back about the value of this registry (tamper protection enable or no)

    And finally, you will get this response:

    If valueData is:
    1 enable
    2 disable

    Then you can export that to csv
