How to: From WarDriving to SSIDs on Google Maps with Latitude/Longitude
Summary
This article provides a tutorial on how to perform "WarDriving" to capture Wi-Fi SSIDs and log their latitude and longitude coordinates, ultimately mapping them on Google Maps. It details the necessary hardware and software setup, including using a Raspberry Pi 3 with Kali Linux and specific Wi-Fi cards for the process.
IFF Assessment
The article describes techniques for mapping Wi-Fi SSIDs, which can be used by attackers to identify potential targets or gather intelligence for further attacks.
Defender Context
This technique highlights the potential for attackers to passively gather information about Wi-Fi network locations. Defenders should be aware of such reconnaissance methods and consider measures like Wi-Fi encryption, disabling broadcast SSIDs where appropriate, and monitoring for unusual Wi-Fi scanning activity in their vicinity.
