Released on November 11, 2024
New features and enhancements
Intercept X for Mobile enrollment
You can enroll Intercept X for Mobile with Sophos Mobile using the same QR code
for all your Android devices, iPhones, and iPads.
Because the QR code doesn't contain information about a Sophos Mobile user,
devices enrolled with it don't have a user assigned. You can assign a user after enrollment.
See Enroll Intercept X for Mobile with a static QR code.
"Allow managing Google accounts" Android restriction
In Android Enterprise device policies, the Allow managing Google accounts restriction is only available
when you turn on Allow managing accounts.
When Allow managing accounts is turned off, this also affects Google accounts.
CSV injection prevention
We enhanced the CSV export from Sophos Mobile to mitigate security risks when opening exported files
in spreadsheet applications that support active content.
Input limitations
For performance reasons, the following input fields have a limit of 5,000 entries and 130,000 characters:
- The Allowed domains and Blocked domains fields in the Web Filtering configuration of
Mobile Threat Defense policies for Android and iOS, and Chrome Security policies.
- The Allowed URLs and Blocked URLs fields in the Web content filter configuration of iOS device policies.
- The Email domains and Web domains fields in the Managed domains configuration of iOS device policies,
macOS device policies, and macOS user policies.
- The Domains in Safari, Domains in Calendar, Domains in Contacts, and Domains in Mail fields
in the Per app VPN configuration of iOS device policies and iOS user policies.
Apple User Enrollment with the "Add device" assistant
We adjusted the version information in the Add device assistant for profile-based Apple User Enrollment.
Profile-based Apple User Enrollment requires iOS 17, iPadOS 17, or earlier.
Windows MSI apps
We improved the validation of installation options you enter for Windows MSI links.
Windows Mobile support
Although Windows Mobile support ended on December 31, 2019, some features were still available to customers
who enabled the Windows Mobile platform in Sophos Mobile before that date.
We'll soon remove the following features from Sophos Mobile:
- Add Windows Mobile devices, apps, and policies.
- Enroll Windows Mobile devices in Sophos Central Self Service Portal.
