Summary:Apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media relating to an unauthorized wireless network device notification system ("WNS") are described. The WNS may be configured to notify the presence of an authorized wireless network device. ("WND") The WNS may include an unauthorized network device identification service ("UNIS") as well as one or more detect/notify devices ("DNDs"). The DNDs may be placed in multiple locations around a monitored space and may be configured to detect wireless network signals from a WND in their vicinity. The DNDs may then send information identifying the WND to the UNIS to determine whether the WND is authorized. If the UNIS determines that the WND is unauthorized, it may determine a location for the WND and send commands to the DNDs to notify persons in the area. This notification may include use of lighting or sound. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
