Practical Man-in-the-Middle Attacks in Computer Networks
£ 6.99
Learn how MITM attacks work—and how to stop them. From ARP poisoning and DNS spoofing to evil-twin Wi-Fi hotspots and SSL/TLS interception, this hands-on guide walks you through real tools (mitmproxy, Ettercap, sslstrip) and lab-tested defenses like VPNs, HSTS, and modern browser protections. Perfect for students, pentesters, and network admins who want both attacker techniques and practical countermeasures. 🔒

Description
Public Wi-Fi and insecure networks are everywhere—and so are attackers waiting to exploit them. This book dives deep into Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks, one of the most common and dangerous cyber threats, breaking down how they work, how they’re executed, and most importantly, how to defend against them.
From ARP poisoning and DNS spoofing to rogue access points, fake Wi-Fi hotspots, SSL/TLS interception, and advanced attacks like Karma, this guide covers theory, tools, and hands-on techniques step by step.
Inside, you’ll explore:
- Core MITM Concepts – Understand ARP cache poisoning, rogue DHCP servers, DNS redirection, and encrypted channel interception.
- Wireless Exploits – Learn how attackers set up evil twin access points and lure unsuspecting victims.
- Real-World Tools – Work with sslstrip, SSLsplit, mitmproxy, Ettercap, and more.
- Case Studies & Practical Tests – Detailed walkthroughs of real MITM scenarios in lab environments.
- Defensive Strategies – Countermeasures like HTTPS Everywhere, VPN tunneling, HSTS, Wi-Fi Privacy Police, and modern browser protections.
Whether you’re a cybersecurity student, ethical hacker, penetration tester, or network admin, this book gives you both the attacker’s perspective and the defender’s playbook.
Frequently asked questions
What does Practical Man-in-the-Middle Attacks in Computer Networks cover?
The book covers Man-in-the-Middle attacks end to end: ARP cache poisoning, rogue DHCP servers, DNS redirection, encrypted channel interception, rogue access points, fake Wi-Fi hotspots, SSL/TLS interception and advanced attacks like Karma. It pairs theory with hands-on lab walkthroughs and a defender's playbook, so you learn how each attack is executed and how it is stopped.
Which MITM tools does this guide teach?
You work with real-world tooling including sslstrip, SSLsplit, mitmproxy and Ettercap. Each tool is applied inside detailed case studies and practical tests that walk through real MITM scenarios in lab environments, so you see exactly how interception is set up step by step instead of only reading the theory behind it.
Who is this MITM attack book written for?
It is written for cybersecurity students, ethical hackers, penetration testers and network admins. The guide gives both the attacker's perspective and the defender's playbook, covering countermeasures such as HTTPS Everywhere, VPN tunneling, HSTS, Wi-Fi Privacy Police and modern browser protections, so offensive testers and defenders get value from the same material.
