Unsecured Wi-Fi connection detection
Is it possible in C++ to construct a console application that detects (i.e. throws a notification) whenever the host connects to an unsecured Wi-Fi network (no authentication)?
If so, how would one go about fulfilling this?

Yes.
You could use the WLan API Win32 provides; https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/wlanapi/
This looks like it can query the authentication algorithm; https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/wlanapi/
This is not a simple thing to do if you've little experience of Win32 API programming. There may be libraries that can simplify it.
