If the firewall was properly locking down servers to functions then it shouldn't work. But if it has general Web access sync thing is very resilient
This is the reason people use sync thing and recommend it, it's really hard to kill
Bestbet would probably be block on an application level. I swapped to bitwarden since syncthing wasn't liked by the AV on my work pc and I was using it to sync my password db.
