Sophos v16 firewall or IPS does unnecessary HTTPS inspection even if explicitly configured to not scan any traffic. This is due to a bug. To resolve the bug use following steps:

  1. Disable the HTTPS malware scanning in firewall rules
  2. Disable Micro - App scanning in application filters
  3. Run the following command in console 
    system application_classification microapp-discovery off
  4. Verify that microapp-discovery has indeed been turned off using: 
    system application_classification microapp-discovery show
