Viewing Wi-Fi Network Details

  • Last updated on

To let you assess the security of the Wi-Fi networks easily, you can view information on Wi-Fi networks from any of the Wi-Fi tests in the Network Security category of the Site Security Assessment. Data is collected for Wi-Fi networks that have been used by any device that belongs to a site being assessed by a Site Security Assessment, both your own internal Wi-Fi networks and public networks such as the user's home Wi-Fi network or the network in a coffee shop.

The Wi-Fi Networks displayed are the ones with WLAN profiles that can be found on managed devices. WLAN profiles are saved to devices when users choose to connect to Wi-Fi networks automatically. WLAN profiles that have been deleted from a device are not assessed.

When you first add a site to the Site Security Assessment, full details on the Wi-Fi networks won't display until Site Security Assessment runs for the first time.

You can export the Wi-Fi network details table to Microsoft Excel format at any time.

This following data is collected for any Wi-Fi network that a device has connected to in the last seven days:

  • SSID
  • Authentication type used
  • Encryption type used
  • Password policy requirements: length, special characters, numbers, and mixed case

You can also view which devices connected to the network.

If a test or category is removed from a custom Security Schema, that test or category isn't displayed on the Dashboard or Details pages.
