Sophos Multiple Issues of Concern

I am all about security for my computers and devices.  My questions and comments are:

I have Sophos set up on my  iMac to delete a threat when found.  But, when I see evidence that such a threat is found the identification of that threat with the name of the virus or  malware is not easily found.  Sophos should have some place where all "FINDS" of malware and dates found are shown and where the user can get to them easily.  

I recently had Sophos identify malware called mal/fakeAV-oy but my Google search says this is a PC virus.  What are the repercussions of this for a Mac user?  If this is a PC virus or malware, then what is Sophos doing but raising my anxiety levels?

What can I do to protect my  iPad while traveling.  Recently, my address book was apparently hacked when using a public WiFi. 

Thanks for any feedback on this.  Currently I am using Sophos on all my computers.
