Wireless intrusion detection and response

Abstract
A prototype implementation of a wireless intrusion detection and active response system is described. An off the shelf wireless access point was modified by downloading a new Linux operating system with nonstandard wireless access point functionality in order to implement a wireless intrusion detection system that has the ability to actively respond to identified threats. An overview of the characteristics and functionality required in a wireless intrusion detection system is presented along with a review and comparison of existing wireless intrusion detection systems and functionalities. Implemented functionality and capabilities of our prototyped system are presented along with conclusions as to what is necessary to implement a more desirable and capable wireless intrusion detection system.
