As wireless networking has become near ubiquitous, the ability to discover, identify, and locate mobile cyber assets is becoming increasingly important to information security auditors, penetration testers, and network administrators. MeerCAT is a visual analytics system that visualizes wireless transmitter locations, their security attributes, and the relationships among transmitters.

MeerCAT's mission is to support the analytic process of information security auditors, penetration testers, and network administrators after performing a wardrive or site survey. To do so, it incorporates both information and geographic visualizations into a single visual analytics system that security practitioners can use for post hoc, interactive analysis of wireless discovery data.

MeerCAT integrates with existing wireless discovery tools, including:

► The Naval Research Laboratory's discovery technology known as Flying Squirrel,

► Open source wireless discovery tools such as Kismet,

► Wireless Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems (WIDS/WIPS) from commercial vendors.
