Systems and methods for distributed p25 lmr radio vulnerability management and real-time interference monitoring

Abstract

A threat monitoring and vulnerability management system is disclosed. The system includes one or more sensors configured to scan a frequency spectrum of a project 25 (P25) network and to collect data on the P25network. The system further includes a server coupled to the sensors and configured to receive the collected data from the plurality of sensors, compare the collected data with previously stored historical data to determine whether an anomaly exists within data patterns of the collected data, responsive to determining that the anomaly exists, determine at least one of: whether use of a cloned radio that mimics an authorized connection occurs, whether jamming of a radio frequency (RF) communication occurs, or whether jamming of a voice communication occurs within the P25 network by comparing the collected data with preset thresholds, and send a real-time alert to a dispatch and control console unit coupled to the server and the P25 network in response to determining that some of the collected data exceeds at least one of the preset thresholds, such that the dispatch and control console unit provides one or more corrective actions to the P25 network.
