During a wireless network audit, what should be deleted to enhance security?

Deleting default admin passwords is a crucial step in enhancing security during a wireless network audit. Default passwords are often well-known and widely available, making them a prime target for attackers. Many devices and software applications come with preset passwords that are easy to guess or find online. If these are not changed, unauthorized individuals could gain access to the network and its resources, leading to potential breaches, data theft, or other malicious activities.

By removing or, more accurately, replacing default admin passwords with strong, unique credentials, the security of the network is significantly improved. It is a foundational practice in cybersecurity to ensure that any networked device has been appropriately secured before being deployed.

In the context of other choices, while guest usernames might be managed for security, and user access logs might be important for monitoring and auditing, the immediate threat posed by default admin passwords warrants their deletion to protect against unauthorized access. Common connection protocols may also need assessment, but simply deleting them may not be the best approach; rather, they should be secured or replaced as necessary.
