- | Sophos web protection and web control use a Layered Service Provider (LSP) to intercept network traffic. If web protection or web control is turned on while an incompatible third-party LSP is running, system instability can occur. Therefore, if a third-party LSP that is known to be incompatible is already installed on the computer, the Sophos LSP is not installed.

Sophos Device Control does not block removable storage devices that are used as system drives, as this typically destabilizes the operating system.
