One‑Click Wireless Device Discovery with the Hacker‑Style WireTapper Tool
WireTapper is an open‑source OSINT/SIGINT platform that passively monitors a wide range of wireless signals, integrates multiple external intel APIs, and can be set up in two steps to provide a high‑tech web panel for instantly visualising all nearby devices.
Overview
WireTapper is an open‑source platform for wireless OSINT and SIGINT that performs passive signal monitoring. It discovers, locates, and analyzes surrounding RF devices without actively probing them, providing a comprehensive view of the local wireless environment.
The core detection of Wi‑Fi credential leaks relies on a k‑anonymous query mechanism , which preserves privacy while aggregating data from multiple external intelligence services.
Supported Signal Types
Wi‑Fi : access points, clients, and Wi‑Fi password leak detection
Bluetooth / BLE : headphones, wearables, phones, etc.
Wireless surveillance : CCTV cameras, IP cameras, dashcams
Vehicle wireless : car infotainment, telemetry, key‑less entry signals
Smart devices : smart TVs, IoT appliances, wearables
Mobile networks : base‑station signals, carrier beacons
Integrated External APIs (API keys required)
Wigle.net – wireless network mapping and hotspot discovery
wpa-sec – WPA‑PSK password leak audit database
OpenCellID – open‑source base‑station location database
Shodan – internet‑connected device search engine (requires a premium account)
Quick Setup (two steps)
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/h9zdev/WireTapper.git
cd WireTapper
# Install Python dependencies
pip install -r WireTapper.txt2. Create or edit a .env file with the required API keys, then start the service: python app-env.py After the service starts, open http://localhost:8080/map-w in a browser to view the monitoring dashboard.
Web Panel Layout
Top bar : shows device status and online indicators
Left sidebar : navigation tabs for Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, surveillance, vehicle, and settings
Center area : searchable device list displaying MAC address, type, vendor, and last‑seen timestamp
Bottom bar : displays data source information and alert messages
