Abstract: |
WiFly is a WiFi reconnaissance and assault device having ample inspective and scanning features designed to curb data pilferage and thwart adversarial activities from both outside and within. |
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? |
Protecting WiFi Networks from rogue insiders and offensive intruders is often hidden away from security managers as they emphasize more on securing end host and the network perimeter. WiFly will help fill this gap by further protecting the WiFi footprint of the organization in an efficient way. |
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? |
WiFly is a must for all confidentiality centric people and organizations like Police, Law Enforcement and Strategic government departments who want broad protection of their controlled WiFi networks. WiFly would help safeguard their WiFi networks against intrusions and block any illicit attempts. |
How will the solution works |
WiFly first informs the administrator about unrecognized WiFi access points operating in the vicinity and provide all details like (MACs, Vendor IDs, origin, encryption standard etc.) about them. It would then provide list of all company systems connected to these unlawful internet connections, which would help apprehend the disgruntled human resources. WiFly can either block these illegal connections or penetrate into them by launching sophisticated wireless attacks for further reconnaissance. |
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different |
WiFi Pineapple is the only commercial competitor but it is both costly and untrustworthy. Other open-source solutions and scripts provide limited functionality and cannot be used for the said purpose. Our solution will be cheaper, trustworthy, indigenous, customizable and platform independent. |
