A laptop walks off a staff room desk and the data on it is readable. You know that's not an option for student records or payroll files, but chasing per-device encryption licences across a school is a headache nobody asked for.
Sophos Central Device Encryption covers 10 to 24 endpoints under one education subscription. You set the encryption policy once in the Sophos Central console and every covered device enforces it. Eleven months of service from activation. No separate management agent to juggle — it slots into the same dashboard you already use for endpoint protection.
If your fleet sits between 10 and 24 machines, this is the right tier. Grab it, activate, and stop worrying about what's on that drive
