I'm looking for ways to keep the WiFi password secure so it can't easily be viewed by users. There's a new feature that shows the password alongside a QR code, making it too accessible for personal devices. Are there any Group Policy settings, registry entries, or other management options that can help prevent this? I'm not using Intune, but I'm considering MDM options. Any thoughts on this?

It sounds like a configuration issue rather than an MDM problem. It's critical to adjust your infrastructure so that only authorized devices can connect. You might want to look into options like EAP-TLS for authentication.
Switching to certificate-based authentication is the best way to go. By using computer certificates for WiFi access instead of a pre-shared key (PSK), you can keep users from seeing the password altogether. This is definitely more secure, especially in a corporate environment.
Good advice from everyone. If you're not using Intune, look into FreeRADIUS for managing access. This way, you can control authentication without letting users peek at the password!
Consider implementing MAC address registration. It allows your MDM to show users the password without letting just any device join. That way, even if they know the password, only registered devices can actually connect.
Yeah, using PSK is a huge problem here. If you can, set up WPA3 Enterprise with RADIUS. It allows for more control over who can access the network without exposing the password. Make sure you check if all devices support WPA3-EAP before fully migrating.
