Man-in-the-Middle Attacks

In the previous chapter, we covered the ways we can gather information and analyze it with the help of various tools. In this chapter, we will learn about the man-in-the-middle framework (MITMf), which is a toolkit for one of the most powerful attacks. In order to implement MITMf we are going to use ARP spoofing, bypassing HTTPS, and DNS spoofing. We will also use keyloggers, and look at the code injection technique for MITMf implementation.

Towards the end of the chapter, we will learn about a special tool called Wireshark, which is very efficient when it comes to analyzing a network. With it, we can capture packets and learn the information they carry within them. In this section of the chapter, we are going to ...
