Yorkie-ProWireless Intrusion Detection 

Yorkie-Pro’s passive WIDS receiver covertly ensures all RF is detected, even RF interference and rogue devices invisible to the network. This means that all cellular 3G/4G/5G (non-mm wave frequencies) RF (texts, voice and data) are detected – even RF pings to/from a cell phone in standby mode. This also means that Yorkie-Pro’s cellular receiver can locate contraband phones, unauthorized bluetooth devices, rogue Wi-Fi APs, USB cables containing malware delivered via RF and more using a specially designed direction finding antenna system. Yorkie-Pro even detects hacker tools such as Flipper Zero.

Yorkie-Pro WIDS contains a dual-band demodulating receiver for connection to any known bluetooth, BLE or Wi-Fi access point. Yorkie-Pro not only tracks and locates their whereabouts, but also provides detailed identifiers and security information for each device. Yorkie-Pro generates whitelists of known devices. This allows security personnel and executive protection to easily focus on true wireless threats.

Yorkie-Pro’s light weight, sleek profile and color touchscreen make it ideal for wireless security audits requiring a NO WIRELESS policy in any facility. Small enough to fit into most pockets for vibrating alerts, Yorkie-Pro can also handle desktop duty as an all day wireless activity monitor. Go handheld with Yorkie-Pro to sniff out all active cell phones use up to 150 feet away indoors and then swap the omni antenna for a direction finding antenna allowing outdoors ranges up to 1/4 mile away. Log measurements internally and view all data on any PC using optional software.

Does Yorkie-Pro identify callers or their phone numbers?

No. Yorkie-Pro WIDS is a precision RF scanning device that identifies potential wireless threats including cellphone activity (both standby mode and active modes) and assists in locating them. It is a wireless tool used by security officers and personnel that require a NO WIRELESS security policy

How far away can I detect wireless threats?

Typical range varies greatly depending upon the environment, which antenna is used and the device being detected. Cell phones can be typically detected up to about 150 feet away indoors (omni antenna) and up to a mile away outdoors (DF antenna). Typical Wi-Fi can be detected from about 100 feet away (omni antenna) Bluetooth can be detected up to 75 feet away using a DF antenna.

Can I detect phones or devices that are OFF?

No. Yorkie-Pro WIDS is a receiver and can only detect active or devices that are powered ON. We sell Manta Ray and SentryHound-Pro for detection of devices that powered OFF.

Can Yorkie-Pro output measurement data to a PC?

Yes. Yorkie-Pro supports Windows 7 OS and Windows 10 OS PC software (does not currently support Windows 11) for exporting to a spreadsheet for further analysis.

Can I detect phones in standby mode?

Yorkie-Pro WIDS can detect phones in the standby mode but keep in mind when a phone is in standby, it is not constantly transmitting. Phones register to the local cell tower/base stations at different intervals that the tower/carrier determines (could be every few seconds, minutes, and we have seen up to 20 minutes).

Does Yorkie-Pro detect all wireless including proprietary and non-standard wireless frequencies?

Yorkie-Pro contains a CW receiver that continuously scans 650 MHz – 3 GHz and all 4.9 – 5.9 GHz frequencies. This helps users identify any active devices transmitting in these frequency ranges even if they are not cellular, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth in nature.

Does Yorkie-Pro detect all Wi-Fi and Bluetooth?

Yorkie-Pro WIDS scans all Wi-Fi (dual-band) frequencies, Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy frequencies.

Does Yorkie-Pro demodulate all Wi-Fi and Bluetooth?

Yorkie-Pro connects to all Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz access points and all 2.4 GHz BT and BLE devices in order to retrieve the most data about detected devices. In addition, by connecting or paring with these devices, Yorkie-Pro is able to direction find hidden devices.

How do I distinguish between safe and unsafe devices detected?

Yorkie-Pro includes a whitelisting feature. This list allows users to remove all known “safe” devices in order to focus only on questionable / unsafe devices.
