Answer 1

I’m not sure what you’re asking for here (the security supported by the device? or the security supported by the current network? or the security supported by nearby networks?) but I suspect that, regardless, the answer is that you can’t. iOS has very limited Wi-Fi management APIs, as listed in QA1942 iOS Wi-Fi Management APIs. You should look through that list to see if there’s anything to help you out, but I suspect not.
