False threat detection, ransomware, on dotnet.exe

I have a large .net7 browser-wasm project that is published with AOT (Ahead-of-time) complication and Sophos keeps flagging "C:Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe" as a ransomware threat. The AOT process is linking and packaging a large number of files. Is there anyway to stop Sophos from thinking this is ransomware?  Once it thinks it's a threat the file is locked and I am "dead in the water" until our IT staff sets the issue to resolved, but it keeps happening.
