Windows 10: Wifi Sense - Enterprise Networks - Aruba Guest Networks.

Is there anyone here that has some solid info/experience using Wifi Sense. \

Me and some fellow network engineers are trying to figure out how big of a security risk this is or is not in an Enterprise environment. We have 40,000 employees, we provide an Aruba wireless network for them to connect their personal devices too and another Aruba controlled network for them to connect to using company issued hardened laptops.

My security team is asking if we think WiFi Sense would share Users credentials from their personal phones/laptops with Wifi Sense enabled and for some dumb reason they turn on sharing.

MS could not even give as a straight answer.

My assumption is that it if Enterprise security is in play that MS would have built in policies to not allow WPA2 Ent type configs be shared?

Our Aruba environment is extremely complex but user Auth is set up such that they provided a 4 digit pass code and the email they use on the website to sign up is the username. Aruba Clear Pass Network.

How Do I Prevent A Guest From Sharing My Wifi Network Password Via Wifi Sense?

Hypothetical:

A guest visits my home with his/her Windows 10 computer and asks me for access to my Wifi Network/Internet.

I want to give this guest access, but I *do not* want him/her to share my Wifi Network credentials with his/her contacts via Wifi Sense.

How can I *ensure* that this guest does not share my Wifi Network credentials via Wifi Sense? Do I have to rely on him/her being familiar enough with Windows 10 to disable Wifi Sense? What if they aren't computer savvy? Do I have to personally enter my
credentials on their computer and ensure they have Wifi Sense off? Can they turn Wifi Sense back on and share my password after I turned it off?

I am particularly worried with sharing my Wifi Network credentials with regular guests/family who visit frequently. Usually, I'll just give them the password and trust them to punch it in on their devices and not share it with others, but now the less computer
savvy guests might be unintentionally sharing *my* passwords with *their* contacts via Windows 10's Wifi Sense? Is the onus now on me to rotate my wifi password every week?
