How to scan a downloaded file with Sophos Intercept X Android?

Question

Hi, does Sophos Intercept X scans downloaded files from the internet? I am using Samsung Internet browser. I have a Samsung Galaxy S10 smartphone. 
 Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Be Human 
 If the zip files have been downloaded directly through https link, then Sophos Intercept X for mobile will not do the file scanning as the file data will be in the encrypted form. However, Sophos Intercept X for mobile will block the website which is in the block list even if it has been accessed with its https link. If you'll try to unzip those files, Sophos Intercept X for mobile will automatically detect the files. You can also manually scan within the app( Under App security). Even if you are not doing any manual scanning, the file will be detected whenever it'll be accessed by you or by any other application through Intercept X for mobile.

 Sophos Intercept X for mobile will delete the txt file or PDF file when you try to download it. Zip files will not be scanned while downloading. As Shweta it will be scanned once zip file will be opened.

 Yes, you exactly got the point. You Samsung device protected when you are surfing an internet but just make sure all the feature are enabled in the Network Security because those are the exact protection you'll have while surfing the internet.
