What two actions would allow a single user to change protection settings on their endpoint?

Providing a user with the Tamper Protection password from the Central console allows them to bypass the security mechanisms that prevent unauthorized changes to the endpoint's protection settings. This action ensures that the user has the means to make adjustments without compromising the overall security framework established by Sophos. Disabling Tamper Protection for that specific device also grants the user the flexibility to change settings, as it removes the barriers that guard against unauthorized modifications. Together, these actions empower the user while maintaining a controlled approach to endpoint security.

In contrast, merely providing admin access or changing the user role does not necessarily pertain to the specific protection mechanisms in place by Sophos. Additionally, enabling remote access or sharing installation files does not grant the user direct authority to modify protection settings on their endpoint. Uninstalling software or installing updates is focused on the software's functionality rather than the adjustment of protection settings, which is why the first option is the most appropriate choice.
