Sophos now sees Spotify as a suspicious file?

Anyone know why? Seems kind of silly.

  • Hi BBallLAL,

    Do you mean that the Application Control policy of Enterprise Control blocks Spotify?  If so, double click the relevant policy (Default?)under Application control, go to the Authorization tab and scroll down to Application Type = Media Player.  Scroll down the Blocked list until you find Spotify and move it to the Authorized list.

    We block all Media Players such as Spotify/iPlayer etc due to Performing Rights licencing as we work in an open environment (and it would be cacophony if everyone was plying different things at the same time:smileymad:).
