SkieAre Wi-Fi passwords in Skie stored safely?
Wi-Fi passwords in Skie profiles are stored encrypted, and they are never shown back in the dashboard, not even to administrators. You can replace a password but not read it. Devices receive the profile in the signed policy bundle, which each device checks before accepting. Keep your own record of the password elsewhere.
A Wi-Fi password is a small secret that lets someone onto your network. It should not appear in plain view in a settings page where many people with access could read it.
In Skie, the password you enter in a Wi-Fi profile is stored encrypted. When you reopen the profile, it is not displayed. You can replace it with a new one, and that is the only way to change it. The device-facing connection is HTTPS, and the policy bundle sent to each device is cryptographically signed, so the device rejects anything that does not verify.
That design has a practical consequence. Because nobody can read the password back from Skie, keep your own record of it in your usual password manager or school IT records. If you rebuild the setup from a downloaded backup, you will need to enter the password again. See download a backup.
The roles that can create or edit Wi-Fi profiles can be limited. Not everyone on the dashboard needs it, and fewer people means fewer chances of the wrong network being pushed. Changes to profiles appear in the audit log.
Skie does not claim that any system can never be compromised. What it describes is what it does: encrypted storage, no display, signed delivery, role-controlled access. Practical tip: use a dedicated network password for managed devices, separate from the staff network, so changing one does not disturb the other.
