Why does Sophos send every URL I visited to 4.sophosxl.net?

Hi, I've recently received a mac laptop for work, it runs Sophos Endpoint, I've connected it through a proxy and found it has posted every single URL I visited to https://4.sophosxl.net/lookup, why is this? It seems like a huge privacy issue. Thanks.

Hi Bob Johnson3

It checks for download reputation and MTD lookups. You may find more information regarding the different types of SXL lookups that are present in the Sophos Endpoint in this article. Could you confirm how are you managing your endpoints? Also, please check this earlier post for the same issue and see if it helps.

Thanks Shaweta, I'm not sure how the endpoints are being managed, I'm only a user of the work laptop having this installed.
