Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and processes to detect rogue wireless access points and determine their approximate location in a geospatial location. Wireless access point data collected from wireless access points by fixed sensor nodes and agent-based sensor nodes in a geospatial location is received. A wireless site survey is performed at the geospatial location based on the wireless access point data. Based on the wireless site survey, an approximate location of a rogue wireless access point at the geospatial location is determined.
