WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why mikrotik_set_wireless_security_profile needs a policy

This tool modifies security configuration for wireless interfaces rather than creating new resources, placing it in the Write category. Severity is high because misconfiguration of wireless security profiles could expose the network to unauthorized access, compromise encryption settings, or degrade authentication mechanisms, affecting all devices using that interface.

From the tool's definition Tool name indicates 'set' operation modifying security profile configuration; description states it 'sets security profile for interface'; this is a configuration modification operation on network security settings.
