Description
Flying Squirrel, the approved Department of Defense (DoD) standard tool for real-time wireless discovery and mapping, enhances network security by detecting unauthorized wireless activity.
With the advantages that wireless technologies provide, many organizations are seeking the means to securely integrate wireless capabilities into their networks. In an effort to standardize wireless security for the purpose of detecting and thus deterring unauthorized wireless activity, the DoD Enterprise-Wide Information Assurance/Computer Network Defense Solutions Steering Group (ESSG) identified the need to enhance network security through the employment of a Wireless Discovery Device (WDD) capability.
Serving as the approved DoD ESSG WDD, the Flying Squirrel Wireless Discovery/Mapping Application is a governmentoff-the-shelf (GOTS) software application developed by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory to provide real-time discovery, analysis, and mapping of IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless networks.
