Assignee:
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION - Armonk NY
International Classification:
G06F 21/00
H04W 8/00

US Classification:
726 4
Abstract:
A system for identifying unauthorized and/or misconfigured wireless access points (WAPs) in a communication network includes multiple network endpoints and multiple agents running on endpoints. The agents are adapted to periodically locate WAPs and to report located WAPs to a central entity. The system further includes a central entity operative to receive information from the agents regarding located WAPs, to determine whether at least a given one of the located WAPs needs to be probed, and to initiate active probing of located WAPs when it is determined that the given one of the located WAPs needs to be probed.

Abstract:
A method for identifying unauthorized and/or misconfigured wireless access points (WAPs) in a communication network includes the steps of: an agent running on an endpoint in the communication network locating one or more WAPs in the communication network; the agent reporting at least one located WAP to a central entity; and the central entity performing steps of applying prescribed criteria to determine whether the located WAP needs to be probed, and initiating active probing of the located WAP when it is determined that the located WAP needs to be probed to thereby determine whether the located WAP is unauthorized and/or misconfigured.
