Eavesdropping attacks, also known as sniffing or wiretapping, involve intercepting and monitoring communications between two parties without their knowledge or consent, often to steal sensitive information.
• Used by attackers to intercept unencrypted communication, such as email or VoIP, to steal login credentials or financial data.• Employed in man-in-the-middle attacks to capture data as it is transmitted across a network.
Attackers use tools to intercept network traffic, capturing data that is transmitted in plaintext between devices, such as passwords or personal information.
Eavesdropping attacks can lead to the compromise of sensitive information, such as login credentials, personal data, or financial transactions.
Organizations can protect against eavesdropping by using strong encryption (e.g., HTTPS, VPNs), securing wireless networks, and monitoring network traffic for anomalies.
