 # Heuristics
 
-TODO
+Rayhunter includes several analyzers to detect potential IMSI catcher activity. These can be enabled and disabled in your [config.toml](https://github.com/EFForg/rayhunter/blob/main/dist/config.toml.example) file.
+
+## Available Analyzers
+
+- **IMSI Requested**: Tests whether the ME sends an IMSI Identity Request NAS message
+- **Connection Release/Redirected Carrier 2G Downgrade**: Tests if a cell
+  releases our connection and redirects us to a 2G cell. This heuristic only
+  makes sense in the US, european users may want to disable it.
+- **LTE SIB6/7 Downgrade**: Tests for LTE cells broadcasting a SIB type 6 and 7
+  which include 2G/3G frequencies with higher priorities
+
+### Disabled by default
+
+- **Null Cipher**: Tests whether the cell suggests using a null cipher (EEA0).
+  This is currently disabled by default due to a parsing bug triggering false
+  positives.
