Hello,
We work with a Sophos Central Web Policy
in general the download of .exe files is not allowed. Is it possible to exclude certain files/programs from this policy so that they can be downloaded?
Thank You!
Thank you for reaching out to the community forum.
it is not possible to exclude specific files or file formats in our web control, but you can use the "Let Me Specify." option to allow or block risky file types.
For more information, you may refer to this documentation.
If you wish to white-list specific websites from Web Control, it is possible to add an exclusion of the type "Website" in the Threat Protection Policy applied to the same device.
For example excluding "live.sysinternals.com" will allow you to download Windows Troubleshooting exe's as needed.
