Explanation

Heat maps visually show the signal strength of wireless networks in a physical space. By analyzing a heat map, you can identify how far your Wi-Fi signal extends-especially if it’s bleeding into surrounding buildings. Once identified, you can then reduce the power of the access points or adjust antenna placements to minimize external signal leakage, thereby reducing visibility and access from unauthorized external devices.
