Sophos blocks Sysinternals Process Explorer and quarantines it as Controlled Application

I am working in a company with normal User Credentials, and recently Sophos AV didn't get Updates anymore, so I had to let it re-install anew by a tech Admin via Remote.

Right after that, the situation in the title appeared. Process Explorer, which I use now for several years (more than ten), can't be used anymore.

Process Explorer by Mark Russinovich can be downloaded from Microsoft Docs, I cannot understand why it is suddenly a controlled application.

Now, since I am not given any user rights to authorize this program (alledgedly the tech department doesn't know how....) I would like to suggest to remove this software from the list of controlled applications.

Thanks in advance
