ARP poisoning
The media access control address is changed by the attacker in this form of attack and
also attacks the Ethernet LAN by adding a fake or forged reply packet and ARP request after
changing the cache of the ARP in the targeted computer. With this, the hacker modifies into their
known MAC address from the layer Ethernet MAC address so as they can monitor it. Due to the
ARP replies being forged, instead of the target computer sending the frames to the original
computer they end up sending frames intentionally to the hackers’ computer. This compromises
the user’s privacy and data (Rhyu & Oh, 2017).
MAC spoofing
This is an attack whereby the network is sniffed by the intruder or MAC addresses that
are valid and an attempt is made to behave as one of the MAC addresses that are vali...
