8d4ef3d8-9129-47c7-b362-37638eb89c14-130338The Authority's Digital Media Investigators require equipment capable of conducting WiFi 'surveys' and detecting if devices are connected to a network. The Authority also seeks training in usage of the devices, together with 12 month's technical support and software upgrades. The Authority's Investigators require two device types, as follows: Device Type 1: Router Analytical Tool - based on a small laptop running bespoke software which provides a WiFi 'direction finding' capability. Amongst other things, this will enable the investigators to locate devices which may have been secreted in a property. Device Type 2: WiFi Analysis Tool - A smaller, hand held device (based on a reconfigured smart phone), which Investigators can use to conduct a 'WiFi survey' at a particular access point and which is capable of scanning both 2.4GHz and 5Ghz networks. The devices are needed in order to assist with and speed up criminal investigations undertaken by the Investigators. The devices will save money in the long term as the Authority will undertake its own WiFi surveying instead of paying third party providers to supply these services on a commercial basis.
