Shielding The Networks Depending On Linux Servers Against Arp Spoofing

Abstract

Escalating Internet-dependent business is giving rise to a corresponding growth to the threats on servers catering to this growing Internet usage. There is a need for research to secure the servers from attackers. Today, the most dangerous attack that can be performed inside the network is ARP Poisoning, which can provide fake identity to steal the authentic network traffic or modify the authenticated network traffic. In the present scenario, any network can become an easy target of ARP spoofing which is highly difficult to detect and prevent. The aim of the research paper is to focus on detecting and preventing the ARP Poisoning attack, by using open source technologies.
