Sophos Central Managed Risk License — 49 Months for 5000-9999 Users and Servers

This 49‑month Sophos Central Managed Risk license is designed for mid‑to‑large organizations seeking proactive risk management across 5000–9999 users and servers. Delivered as a cloud‑based service through Sophos Central, it provides continuous risk assessment, prioritized remediation guidance, and centralized visibility to help reduce the attack surface, improve compliance posture, and streamline security operations. Ideal for organizations needing scalable, policy‑driven risk controls, this license aligns with modern security programs that demand ongoing risk insight, automation, and measurable remediation outcomes.

• Centralized risk management in Sophos Central: Access a single, cloud‑based console that aggregates asset inventory, threat intelligence, and risk scores across endpoints, servers, and workloads. The centralized view enables your security team to understand where risk concentrates, how assets relate to business processes, and where to focus remediation efforts for maximum impact. By consolidating risk data in one place, you can align IT, security, and compliance teams around a shared posture and actionable priorities.
• Risk‑based vulnerability management and remediation: The Managed Risk service emphasizes risk prioritization rather than chasing every low‑level finding. It uses an ongoing assessment to identify gaps that pose real threats to your environment and guides you through remediation campaigns, enabling faster, more effective mitigation. This approach helps reduce mean time to remediation (MTTR) and improves protections where it matters most—critical systems, data stores, and user endpoints.
• Policy‑driven, automated workflows: Configure policies that reflect your organization’s security requirements and compliance standards. The solution automates routine tasks, assigns remediation steps, and tracks progress within dashboards, making it easier to enforce consistent controls at scale. With automation, security teams can implement repeatable processes, freeing time to focus on strategic risk reduction rather than manual triage.
• Scalability for 5000–9999 users and servers: This license is designed for sizable deployments, providing coverage that matches your enterprise footprint. Whether you’re protecting a mix of on‑premises, cloud, and hybrid assets, the license tier supports a broad range of devices and services under a single subscription. As your organization grows, the centralized risk management model helps ensure continued visibility and control across the expanding environment.
• Fixed 49‑month term for predictable budgeting: A long‑term licensing arrangement helps you plan security spend with clarity. The 49‑month term provides continuity of risk management capabilities, reduces renewal disruption, and aligns with typical budgeting cycles. This stability supports ongoing security investments, governance reporting, and a sustainable security program without frequent license re‑negotiations.
