The registry - where to find where I was connected - Wireless
Alex wants to determine whether the user of a company-owned laptop accessed a malicious wireless access point. Where can he find the list of wireless networks that the system knows about?
- The registry
- The user profile directory
- The wireless adapter cache
- Wireless network lists are not stored after use.
The Windows registry stores a list of wireless networks the system has connected to in the registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles. This is not a user-specific setting and is stored for all users in LocalMachine.
