Is there a way to manually force the security protocol with IWD?

Hi All
We are working to get our product through wifi certification.  Our
testing company mentioned there was several negative test cases that
were failing where IWD was connecting anyways because it would decide
on the security type based on the AP.  Is there a way to force IWD to
use a security type that is different than the AP so it would fail the
connection?  Can we disable WPA1-only connection or force WPA2 only
connection?

Thanks
Bryce
