Force usage of Sophos Secure Email App to Access Office 365 Mailbox

Hello,

we want to prevent our users from accessing their business mailboxes on private devices using the built-in or any other mail application. Instead, we want to force them to use only the Sophos Secure Email App. This way, mails and contacts are secured in a container and cannot be transferred to, for example, a private WhatsApp contact list.

As i understand the EAS proxy, this can be done for on-premise Exchange servers. The Exchange server is hidden behind the firewall, and all ActiveSync traffic is routed through the EAS proxy. Only the Secure Email App is allowed as a client.

How can this be achieved for Office 365 mailboxes ?

When using the EAS proxy with the Office 365 Powershell instance type, i can allow or block certain devices, but can i also block apps (except the Secure Email App) ?

As soon as a device is compliant, every ActiveSync connection from this device will be allowed.

Perhaps, the Secure Email App has a special ActiveSync-ID so Office 365 can differentiate ?

Has anyone else this use case ?

PS: we are using Sophos Central

Thank you and regards

Bodo
