Network threat Protection - Blocking PowerShell Login to MS Compliance search via the Localhost browser address

Open Powershell 7 

Connect-IPPSSession -UserPrincipalName User@domain.com

MS login processes starts by trying to open a browser window with a local host address and a random port.  The connection is refused and the login process to MS stops 


localhost:50148/


If I disable Sophos "Network Threat protection" on my endpoint I am able to visit the address and complete the login process to MS Azure / O365

How can I add an exclusion for this.. Basically exclude all "localhost:*" 

This is affecting my ability to administer my O365 via Powershell without having first to go in and switch off sophos NTP
