Abstract
Technologies for identifying rogue access points having an actual location different from a registered location include a computing device to receive a unique identifier of each access point of a plurality of access points within a communication range of the computing device from the corresponding access point. The computing device determines a registered physical location of each access point based on the unique identifier. Additionally, the computing device determines a reference distance between the computing device and each access point based on a transmitted signal received from each corresponding access point and a spatial distance between each access point and each other access point based on the registered locations of the access points. Based on the spatial distances and reference distances, the computing device identifies which of the access points are rogue access points.
