![AIMSICD-Banner](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SecUpwN/Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector/master/PROMOTION/AIMSICD-Banner_Small.png)
The [Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector](https://secupwn.github.io/Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector) (short: AIMSICD) is an Android open-source based project to detect and avoid fake base stations (IMSI-Catchers) or other base-stations (mobile antennas) with poor/no encryption. This project aims to warn users if the ciphering is turned off and also enables several other protection-mechanisms. Since it is under constant development, we always search for testers and security-enthusiastic developers with balls. Don't be shy, feel free to contribute in any way you can!

The [Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector](https://secupwn.github.io/Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector) (short: AIMSICD) is an Android open-source based project to detect and avoid fake base stations (IMSI-Catchers) or other base-stations (mobile antennas) with poor/no encryption. Our project aims to warn you if the ciphering is turned off on your phone, if you've been tracked via Silent/Stealth SMS and also enable several protection-mechanisms. Since our App is under constant development, we always search for testers and security-enthusiastic developers. Don't be shy, feel free to contribute in any way you can!
