IWD.
Classification: Plasma

Security type is wrong
SUMMARY
The connected network Details section in the Networks widget shows the wrong
security type when back-end is IWD.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. On KDE Neon, Debian or other distro install and switch to iwd as explained
here: https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkManager/iwd
2. Open the Networks widget
3. Click on the currently connected network and then its "Details" tab
OBSERVED RESULT
Compared to the "station wlan0 show" command in the iwctl tool, that seays that
the security is: "WPA2-Personal"...
And the phone's hotspot configuration that says that the security is: "WPA2
PSK"...
The Networks widget says that the security type is: "Insecure", which is
clearly wrong
EXPECTED RESULT
The Networks widget should say that the security type of the connected network
is "WPA2-Personal" or "WPA2-PSK", when the back-end is IWD instead of
WPA-Supplicant.
Or as Wikipedia says here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Access#WPA_terminology

This bug seems similar to mine, although in my case for sure there's no WPA3
involved (as the phone doesn't support that):
