Rayhunter by EFF is an open-source tool to detect cellular spying, aka IMSI catchers, aka Stingrays. This tool monitors the cellular network and detects anomalies. Specifically, it looks for IMSI requests, 2G downgrade, SIB types 6 and 7, and null cipher. It is originally written for the Orbic RC400L, which is hard to purchase in Europe. GitHub user m0veax has created a fork and documentation to bring Rayhunter to the TP-Link M7350, which is available in Europe.
