Microsoft office applications started being blocked on macOS machines

From today macOS users started claiming microsoft office applications were blocked by Sophos EP.

As fas as I know, according to this notice (+) Notification of Application Control application updates Planned for the 28th November 2023 - Application Control - Sophos Labs - Sophos Community, the office applications are out of scope being added to the control list.

And on Sophos Central, I can't find these applications on application control list and blocked events log.

Is anyone experiencing the same issue?

  • Same issue here on at least two of our Macs. Had to try launching the Microsoft Updater before it started to appear. No application in the list to uncheck. Running latest 14.1.1 OSX and 10.5.1 Sophos.

    Tried just adding exceptions for the file paths in an act of desperation. The notifications are getting annoying.
