SSL stripping detected on home wifi network (android app)

The Sophos app on my android phone gave me a warning that it has detected SSL stripping on my home wifi network. What do I do to fix this?? The app just says to disconnect from the network, so I've temporarily unplugged the Wi-Fi router (and I'm using my phone data) until I figure out what to do. What should I do to secure the network to make it safe to use? And what other security precautions do I need to take (e.g. change all my passwords)?

  • I just had the same message pop up for my home network. I changed the SSID name, hid the new SSID, changed the password, and reset the router. I now logged in to my network via WiFi with the new SSID/password and.......Sophos Mobile app tells me I have SSL Stripping detected. So I'm thinking its a false positive but it still has me nervous. I'm hoping someone from Sophos answers this.
