What is ARP Poisoning? #cybersecurity

What is Address Resolution Protocol Poisoning? Address Resolution Protocol poisoning is a type of cyber attack that is designed to manipulate the Address Resolution Protocol. This protocol is used by devices on a local area network to translate Internet Protocol addresses into physical device addresses. An attacker may send false Address Resolution Protocol packets onto the network, pretending to be a trusted device or router, in an effort to trick other devices on the network into sending data to them instead of to its intended destination. #security #computer #computervirus #cyber #cybersecurityforbeginners #cybercrime
