Vulnerable SSID
APs have well known default SSIDs and many users may not change these SSIDs when deploying the APs. Therefore
it is highly likely that APs using default SSIDs are present in the enterprise neighborhood. If an enterprise Client
probes for a default SSID, it is at risk of connecting to the neighborhood AP without the user necessarily knowing
about it. Also if an enterprise AP uses a default SSID, such an AP may attract undesirable Clients to connect to it.
If you consider an SSID to be vulnerable to hackers, you can open the Vulnerable SSIDs screen and enter the SSID
under SSID (ASCII character string). Click Add and then Apply to place the SSID in your database. If an AP point
with a vulnerable SSID is detected, the system generates an event.
Note: Commonly known SSIDs are listed by default. To enter a blank SSID: no string, click <Add> without
entering any text. The list shows the SSID as NULL.
