Suspicious Wi-Fi connection detected

Although I was sceptical I have followed the steps advised by Qoosh and for now it has resolved the issue on my Pixel 5 that was experiencing the same problem starting from last evening on the 21st March.

Started getting this too on home and corporate networks which i know are secure 

I think the fix of re-installing etc is a farce seeing as it started appearing a day or so ago. So obviously a bug that needs to be fixed by Sophos.

Same here. Started having this problem yesterday afternoon on several company devices (all android so far). They are connected to various WIFIs, corporate networks which we know are secure, and some private networks.

We tested the suggestion to reinstall Intercept X, which seems to work for now. But it's a pain to reinstall and configure the app on about 100 phones, so, Sophos, please fix this bug quickly.

Hi David Calle ,

Thank you for reaching out to our Community Forum. We have received an update that this behavior seems to be caused by the app not being able to correctly apply the latest certificates from the Sophos warehouse.

For the time being, Sophos Development has reverted the certificate change which was causing the behavior, and the affected users should no longer see the warning when checking the network connection again.

More details can be found in the following advisory:
Sophos Intercept X for Mobile - WiFi considered insecure due to SSL interception

Kindly check and let us know if you're still seeing the warning. Thank you.

Hi  Ron Feole  ,

This also goes for everyone experiencing the same issue. We have received an update that this behavior seems to be caused by the app not being able to correctly apply the latest certificates from the Sophos warehouse.

Kindly check and let us know if you're still seeing the warning. Thank you.

Thanks Just checked,  mine is not reporting the networks as suspicious now so all good.

What bothers me is that a Sophos engineer's first advice was to remove and re-install when it could have been investigated further.

As of this morning (March 22, 2023) I am no longer getting the warning.  My Sophos app shows "No issues found."

Thank you for quickly fixing this false alarm issue.

Good day Gladys and thank you for your reply.  So let me ask you to for an explicit answer, do I need to

1.  downrev the my current version or
2. back out my latest update or
3. do you have an newer version that I need to up or force an update to

Thank you again for your reply and I do appreciate your support.

Yes all good here since the update thanks

Nice Job Folks.  And great job of keeping us in the loop!

On a somewhat related note, the update was a bit slow to actually apply on a Samsung A52, Android device.  But it took in 10 minutes or less.  Again nice job!
