摘要:
According to an embodiment of the present invention, security exposure analysis of wireless network within a selected local geographic area is provided. A computer model of the selected local geographic region comprising a layout is generated. Information regarding wireless network components is provided to the computer model. Using the computer model, signal intensity characteristics of at least one of the wireless network components are determined over at least a portion of the selected geographic region. Based at least on the signal intensity characteristics, security exposure information associated with the wireless network is determined. The security exposure information is graphically displayed on the computer screen in relation to the layout of the selected geographic region. The security exposure information includes sniffer detection and prevention coverage, access point vulnerability regions, and signal uncertainty and variability views.
