What is SSID?
Answer. Short for Service Set Identifier. SSID is a 32 character unique identifier attached to
the header of packets sent over a WLAN that acts as a password when a mobile device tries
to connect to the BSS. The SSID differentiates one WLAN from another, so all Access Point
and all devices attempting to connect to a specific WLAN must use the same SSID. A device
will not be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID.

radio waves so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one end point to another.
