The padlock icon at the WiFi network name makes it easy to distinguish between secure private networks and potentially risky public hotspots that don't require a password. It's a small improvement, but it helps you decide which WiFi network to connect to without having to dig into the settings, reducing the risk of connecting your iPhone or iPad to unsecure WiFi.
