A script to initiate your Raspberry PI5 for wardriving. If you have multiple GPS devices that you use it will detect which one is plugged in and it will prepare the GPSD socket for that device. It will put your external WIFI device in monitoring mode and start kismet in wardriving mode.
- Detect GPS dongle used
- Initiate GPS coordinates retrieval from GPSD
- Supports external WIFI dongles
- Initiate monitoring mode on external wifi device
- Runs kismet in wardrive mode
- Releases monitoring mode when kismet is stopped
Important
create a wardriving directory, change the directory in the script accordingly and put .sh file on the Desktop.
Done! Now the script is installed and ready to launch!
Press ctrl-c to stop kismet Monitoring mode is disabled on e the external wifi device.
You are good to go... copy the csv files and manually upload them to wigle.net
Wardriving in cyber security is the act of looking for publicly available Wi-Fi networks, usually from a moving vehicle, using a laptop or smartphone. The software used for wardriving is freely available on the internet.
The term derives from the 1983 movie WarGames. In the movie, the character played by Matthew Broderick engages in an activity called war dialing, which involves using a computer to dial multiple phone numbers to identify a working modem. Wardriving is seen as an evolution of this process.
Is wardriving illegal? In short, no! There are no laws that prohibit people from gathering or collecting data from wireless networks. That said, wardriving can be illegal when it involves exploiting insecure networks to access private information. Don't be that douchebag!
