Data Loss Protection policy on Mac

Question

Hello! 
 I started to test DLP policy. Cloned the default policy in Sophos Central, added rules for bank details (all of them, Europe, Global, Hong Kong etc.) and the destination - Internet browser (all browsers). Checked - Block transfer. 
 I enforced the policy and added my device for test. Created a docx file with IBAN (added 2 different numbers) and tried to upload to Dropbox. File uploaded without any issues. Tried Google Chrome and Safari. Tried drag&drop and click - upload file. 
 I found similar threads but they are about Win systems and I am using MacOS. 
 Can you help me with that issue?

Hi Konstantin Shvetsov , 
 Thank you for reaching out to the Sophos Community forum. Currently, the Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy isn&rsquo;t supported on a Mac platform. You'll find more details in the following article. 
 - Sophos Central: Supported policies by endpoint platform 
 You may submit a feature request to your Account Manager if you'd like to have this feature added in future releases. 
 In the meantime, do you only need to block file transfers to Dropbox specifically? If yes, you may try using Application Control instead to block the Dropbox app, or Website Management to block the Dropbox website.
