WireTapper: One-Click Open-Source Tool to Reveal All Nearby Wireless Devices

Overview

WireTapper is an open‑source platform that combines wireless OSINT and SIGINT to passively monitor nearby radio devices without active intrusion. It uses a k‑anonymous query mechanism to detect Wi‑Fi credential leaks while preserving privacy and aggregates data from multiple external intelligence services.

Supported wireless signals

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 RF

Smart devices : smart TVs, IoT appliances, wearables

Mobile networks : base‑station signals, carrier beacons

Core API integrations (API keys required)

Wigle.net : wireless network mapping and hotspot discovery

wpa-sec : WPA‑PSK password leak audit database

OpenCellID : open‑source cell‑tower location database

Shodan : internet‑connected device search engine (requires a paid account)

Quick deployment (two steps)

1. Clone the repository and install dependencies

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/h9zdev/WireTapper.git
cd WireTapper
# Install Python requirements
pip install -r WireTapper.txt

2. Configure API keys and start the service (environment‑variable method recommended)

Create or edit a .env file and fill in the required API keys.

Run the application:

python app-env.py

After starting, open http://localhost:8080/map-w in a browser to view the monitoring dashboard.

User interface

The web panel uses a dark, technology‑styled theme with clear functional zones:

Top bar : device status and online indicators

Left navigation : sections for Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, surveillance, vehicle, settings, etc.

Center area : search box and device list showing MAC address, type, vendor, and last seen time

Bottom bar : data source information and alert messages
