Kismet is an IDS (Intrusion Detection System) that operates passively and remains undetectable. It is a wireless sniffer tool that is used to detect and analyze wireless networks. It can detect hidden networks and can also discover access points that are not broadcasting their SSIDs. NetStumbler, AirSnort, and Aircrack-ng are not IDS and are not passive in operation.
