Ettercap

Ettercap offers a powerful set of components focused on defending networks against interception threats. It goes beyond simple packet sniffing by actively hunting for signs of man-in-the-middle attacks, where malicious actors secretly relay or alter communication. The suite can log all network activity for forensic analysis while employing techniques to disrupt and expose these MITM attempts. By providing both defensive prevention and detailed logging, it serves as a critical shield for securing sensitive data and ensuring trusted connections within corporate, educational, or research network environments.
