Switch Attacks: MAC Flooding, ARP Spoofing & More

In this video, we break down the top switch-based attacks that threat actors use to exploit network infrastructures. If you manage or design networks, understanding these Layer 2 threats is crucial.

🔍 What you’ll learn:

MAC Flooding: How attackers overflow the switch’s CAM table to force traffic to broadcast.

ARP Spoofing: How fake ARP responses can poison a network and enable man-in-the-middle attacks.

VLAN Hopping: Techniques attackers use to jump across VLAN boundaries and access unauthorized segments.

MAC Spoofing & STP Manipulation: How impersonating devices and modifying spanning tree priorities can compromise your topology.

We also cover:
✅ How each attack works (visual breakdowns)
✅ Real-world use cases and what attackers are targeting
✅ Best practices to mitigate and defend against these threats
✅ Tools used to simulate or test these attacks for educational purposes

Whether you're studying for Network+, Security+ or just want to harden your network, this is must-know knowledge for defending the edge of your infrastructure.
