Wireless Intrusion Detection Location Identification Integration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Networks are vulnerable to unauthorized access attempts, making it difficult for administrators to efficiently react to and mitigate security breaches, as existing technologies lack effective methods to identify and locate intruders within wireless networks.
Innovation Solution
A system integrating wireless intrusion detection and location identification, which communicates the attacker's approximate physical location to a surveillance system, allowing for targeted monitoring and apprehension by adjusting camera coverage areas.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If wireless intrusion detection is implemented, then network security monitoring capability is improved, but the ability to locate and apprehend intruders deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges wireless intrusion detection systems with physical surveillance systems by integrating location identification arrangements that translate wireless signal data into physical location information, and by communicating this data to surveillance arrangements for coordinated monitoring and apprehension of intruders
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a location identification arrangement as an intermediary component that receives wireless signal data from intrusion detection arrangements, processes this data to determine physical locations, and transmits this information to surveillance arrangements, thereby bridging the gap between wireless detection and physical apprehension
2Reliability
If comprehensive surveillance is deployed to monitor all areas, then intruder detection capability is improved, but system complexity and cost deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements local quality by deploying surveillance arrangements selectively in specific areas where intruders are most likely to be located based on wireless intrusion detection data, rather than uniformly across all areas, thereby optimizing detection capability while reducing overall system complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies dynamics by enabling the surveillance system to adaptively adjust monitoring focus based on real-time location information from the location identification arrangement, allowing surveillance resources to dynamically concentrate on areas with active intrusions rather than maintaining static comprehensive coverage

AI summary
In one embodiment, an apparatus includes an intrusion detection arrangement and a location identification arrangement. The intrusion detection arrangement determines when a client without authorization attempts to access a wireless network of which the intrusion detection arrangement is a part. The location identification arrangement identifies at least a first approximate physical location of the client without authorization when the client without authorization attempts to access the wireless network. The location identification arrangement is configured to communicate the first approximate physical location to a surveillance arrangement which monitors the first approximate physical location.
