Hello Michel Vaillancourt,
Thank you for reaching out to the community, psexe and pskil uses uses TCP ports 135 and 445.
So you can simply create a drop/reject rule for the desired networks !
Thanks & Regards,

It is possible block psexec tool directly on sophos console?
psexec is detected as PUA since 2006.
What psexec basically does isn't really rocket science - any decent malware writer could come up with its basic and abused functionality in minutes. That a know tool is used stems from the fact that it's often used for system administration, software deployment and things like that. There's a chance that it is white-listed. But as I mentioned that it uses the ports 135 and 445 blocking those in your network can help !
There is no command straight forward from the console to block it ! Erik Alejos Agustí
Thanks & Regards,
