With government pricing designed to align procurement processes with public sector workflows, administrators gain a scalable, future‑proof platform that continuously monitors, analyzes, and mitigates risk across endpoints and servers. The 60‑month validation guarantees ongoing protection, reducing lapses in coverage and ensuring your security posture remains consistently strong as new threats emerge.

• End‑to‑end risk management for government networks: Real‑time risk scoring, asset discovery, vulnerability assessments, and threat detection come together with policy enforcement to help agencies meet stringent governance, compliance, and audit requirements. The centralized approach provides a single source of truth for security posture across diverse departments and facilities.
• Cost‑efficient, stable licensing for the public sector: A 60‑month license with a government price tier streamlines budgeting cycles and procurement workflows. Long‑term entitlements reduce renewal overhead, minimize renewal delays, and protect agencies from price volatility while maximizing continuity of coverage.
• Centralized visibility across servers and endpoints: Manage workstations, servers, and hybrid environments from one cloud console. Customizable dashboards, scheduled reports, and role‑based access controls empower IT leaders and compliance officers to monitor risk from a single pane of glass.
• Automated remediation and proactive protection: Beyond detection, Sophos Central Managed Risk supports policy‑driven automation, remediation guidance, and integration with existing security controls. This enables faster response times, consistent enforcement, and reduced mean‑time‑to‑remediation (MTTR) for common security weaknesses.
• Seamless deployment and scalable integration: The cloud‑based model supports rapid enrollment of new servers and endpoints, easy integration with other Sophos products, and smooth expansion as agency requirements evolve. It is designed to support hybrid environments, on‑premises data centers, and cloud workloads with minimal friction.

How to install Sophos Central Managed Risk

Begin by gaining access to the Sophos Central Admin Console using your government‑approved credentials. Navigate to the licensing section and apply or attach the Sophos Central Managed Risk entitlement for the 60‑month period. Enroll servers and endpoints into the central console by installing lightweight management agents or by connecting existing supported agents, following your agency’s standard security onboarding procedures. Configure risk management policies tailored to your agency’s security controls, compliance frameworks, and audit requirements, and set up automated reporting schedules to meet reporting deadlines. Finally, verify that risk dashboards show accurate data, alerts are routed to the appropriate security teams, and remediation workflows are aligned with your incident response processes. This approach ensures a smooth deployment with a clear path to ongoing governance and protection across the entire fleet of devices.

Additional best practices include establishing role‑based access control (RBAC) to limit permissions, integrating with existing security information and event management (SIEM) systems for centralized logging, and setting up automated alerts for high‑risk findings. Regularly review risk indicators, adjust policies as new threats emerge, and perform scheduled audits to maintain compliance with government standards and best practices. The cloud‑based architecture allows administrators to manage changes remotely, scale coverage quickly, and ensure that all assets—whether on site or in the cloud—are consistently monitored and protected.
