WifiGaze is a network security tool designed to:
- Observe WiFi devices in your proximity.
- Create a graph of all devices they communicate with, including non-wireless devices if a WiFi device is interacting with them.
- Incrementally discover more devices as it hops through all available WiFi channels.
Features:
- Reveals devices on networks without decrypting any traffic.
- Web interface that can be accessed locally or configured remotely
- Supports exporting and importing of graphs.
To use WifiGaze, you need something like default Kali (which gives the first 3):
- Python3
- Wireshark (tshark)
- sudo/root access - root is required to hop between wifi channels, it won't hop channels if you have the same number of interfaces as channels you are monitoring
- Wireless network interface(s) in monitor mode - See Example configuring of Monitor mode.
- if using a rpi
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev
Create a virtual environment and install the wheel from the releases to the right
virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install wifigaze-0.3.0-py3-none-any.whl
Run WifiGaze with default settings and the first WLAN interface:
wifigaze --interfaces=wlan0
For WLAN interfaces that don't support 5GHz, limit the channels to scan:
wifigaze --interfaces=wlan1 --channels=1,6,11
Once WifiGaze is running you can navigate to the web interface: http://127.0.0.1:8765
| Option | Description | Default |

WifiGaze requires Python 3 and Node.js to build. Use the following commands:
python buildvue.py
python -m pip install --user setuptools wheel
python -m build
