To disable the on-access scanning in Sophos for now with this command:

/opt/sophos-av/bin/savdctl disable

It can later be re-enabled with this command:

/opt/sophos-av/bin/savdctl enable

As for checking for what Sophos has been doing lately, the log files are located in the following path:

/opt/sophos-av/log
