Active Directory GPO Deployment via PowerShell
This script is intended for customers where deployment via an RMM Tool isn't available.
This script uses the SophosSetup.exe from the Central Admin Dashboard that is downloaded and stored on a local network share.
The script will need to be modified with the path to the SophosSetup.exe at the top InstallerLocation variable.

Active Directory GPO Deployment
This is not an MSI Installer, therefore it will still need to be deployed using the GPO Startup Script.
