Sophos Central Managed Risk — 54-Month Government License for Servers

Enhance your agency’s security posture with a durable, government-grade license for Sophos Central Managed Risk. This 54-month, server-focused license is designed to align with public sector procurement practices while delivering continuous risk assessment, centralized management, and proactive threat remediation through the trusted Sophos Central platform. Built for government environments, it offers predictable budgeting, scalable deployment across server fleets, and a streamlined path to sustained risk visibility that supports compliance, governance, and operational continuity.

• Centralized risk visibility and actionable remediation: Sophos Central Managed Risk provides a unified dashboard that aggregates risks across your server estate, enabling you to detect, prioritize, and remediate high-priority threats and vulnerabilities. Rather than chasing disparate alerts from multiple tools, your security teams gain a single source of truth with clear, prioritized guidance on what to fix first, who should act, and how to verify remediation. This consolidation helps government teams meet audit requirements with consistent reporting, reduces mean time to remediation, and improves your overall security hygiene by turning data into decisive action.
• Long-term, predictable licensing for government budgets: The 54-month term is tailored to government procurement cycles, offering stability in licensing costs and renewal planning. By locking in a multi-year term, agencies can better forecast IT expenditures, align with capital and operating budgets, and avoid frequent renewal cycles that can disrupt security coverage. The government pricing tier (Price Level 500-999 User and Server) is designed to fit large departmental deployments, helping agencies maximize value while maintaining continuous access to essential risk management capabilities without unexpected price fluctuations.
• Server-focused licensing with flexible deployment: This license targets server environments, covering on-premises, virtualized, and hybrid server workloads managed through Sophos Central. It empowers security teams to extend risk monitoring across key server assets, from operating systems to critical applications, while preserving centralized control through the Sophos Central console. The server-oriented scope ensures that essential risk signals from server infrastructure are included in your risk posture, so administrators can align security policy enforcement with real-world server utilization and critical workload requirements.
• Governance, compliance, and auditable reporting: Government organizations demand robust governance. Sophos Central Managed Risk helps address this need by enabling role-based access control, auditable activity logs, and comprehensive reporting that can be shared with internal oversight bodies. With centralized policy management and traceable remediation steps, agencies can demonstrate due diligence in risk mitigation, track changes over time, and support compliance inquiries with reliable, easily generated documentation—all from a single, secure platform.
• Cost efficiency, scalability, and procurement simplicity: The 54-month Gov license enhances scalability as your server estate grows, reducing the administrative overhead of frequent licensing actions. It’s designed for large, multi-department deployments, supporting consistent license provisioning, streamlined renewals, and predictable maintenance costs. By leveraging government pricing and centralized license management, agencies can achieve a lower total cost of ownership while preserving continuous risk protection across expanding server environments.
