Once user exported the configuration file of the AP, we can found the Wi-Fi password such as the [passphrase] of WPA2-Personal and [server secret] of WPA2-Enterprise are displayed in plain text. In order to avoid the unauthorized network access and related information leaked, those information should be hashed into a cipher, just like the password of admin login account.
