  • (DEF 20694) When Sophos Anti-Virus detects a controlled application on a remote share, the alert always shows that the application was detected on the local computer.

Sophos Device Control

  • (DEF 39454) On Windows Vista, if a non-administrator user inserts a device that would be blocked by Sophos Device Control, they may be asked to enter administrator credentials.
