Users in Sophos Cloud

Uli RompelRompel

Hello,
in Sophos Cloud a distinction is drawn between users and devices. Actual there are 3 devices on my Sophos Cloud. I want to assign all the 3 devices to a single user. The present situation is, that Sophos Cloud shows 3 users, each with a separate device. The users are shown as DEVICE1\user DEVICE2\user DEVICE3\user. The local windows-users on the devices have all the same name. However what i want is that Sophos Cloud recognises all same-named windows-users as one (single) user. How can i do that?

    This is the wrong forum for this question, you should ask this here: community.sophos.com/.../10

    A nice mod hopefully will move it.

    To try and answer your question however, I don't think you will be able to do that in this case unless you use active directory or similar log ins. Reason is that on each of the three devices the logins could be the same name and password but they're not the same. They're machine accounts and have their own signature identity and that's what Sophos cloud picks up on.

    I hope you can do that without AD and maybe someone with more cloud knowledge will be able to better answer your question in the cloud forum :)
