How would you know someone was in controlled airspace in real time to allow action?

Surely TXponder would be off. Mitigates identification via secondary radar and TCAS. ATC radar, or at least the stuff I am familiar with may or may not be able detect a primary radar return. Even then you have no idea of height.
