IMSI Catcher Detector

 

IMSI catchers, also known as Active Interception Systems, are devices used by intelligence agencies and organizations to monitor cell phone conversations, text messages or data usage whenever ordinary wiretapping is not feasible, unless conducted in collaboration with a telecom provider.

An IMSI catcher impersonates a local cell tower and then takes full control of a cell phone’s identify and forcing it to use insecure channels, even if the phone and the network are set to encrypt its conversations.

The problem is even more complicated because the playing field isn’t even: while targets are generally in stationary, identifiable locations – such as critical infrastructure facilities, military bases, police stations, embassies, meeting rooms, etc. – IMSI catchers may be portable, can be activated from any location, including moving vehicles and are continuous threat.
