Hi all,

One of the threats in computer security is ARP spoofing. ARP spoofing is a kind of Man-in-the-Middle (MiTM) attack.

This attack can be performed via wireless and wired network. It poisoned the gateway or/and router in order to get your valuable data even it is using SSL (HTTPS).

How this attack works and how to prevent from being attacked? You can visit this link for details.
