Module 11 – Network Sniffing

In Module 11, we delve into the critical world of network sniffing. This stealthy technique allows an individual to capture packets of data as they traverse a network, providing a real-time window into the traffic flowing between devices. Often used for diagnostic purposes, it can also be wielded by malicious actors to intercept sensitive information. We’ll explore the tools and methodologies used for sniffing, the ethics surrounding it, and protective measures to safeguard against unauthorized data interception. Understanding network sniffing is essential for both network security and troubleshooting.
