MITM Attacks

Bettercap is a network sniffing, MITM (man-in-the-middle), and ARP poisoning tool that can be used to perform a variety of attacks on wireless and Ethernet networks. It is a popular tool among security researchers and penetration testers, as it can be used to steal sensitive data, inject malicious traffic, and redirect users to fake websites.
Bettercap is a powerful tool, but it can also be dangerous if used in the wrong hands. It is important to note that Bettercap is illegal to use without the permission of the network owner.
Imagine you are a waiter at a restaurant. Every customer who comes in has to walk through your station to get to their table. As they walk by, you can see what they are ordering, where they are sitting, and even what they are talking about.
Bettercap is like a waiter for network traffic. It sits on your computer and sees all of the traffic that is flowing through your network. This includes traffic from all of the devices on your network, as well as traffic from devices outside of your network that are trying to connect to your devices.
Once Bettercap has seen a piece of traffic, it can do a variety of things with it. It can log the traffic, modify it, or even drop it altogether. Bettercap can also be used to perform more sophisticated attacks, such as man-in-the-middle attacks and ARP poisoning attacks.
Man-in-the-middle attacks are a type of attack where Bettercap intercepts traffic between two devices and pretends to be one of the devices. This allows Bettercap to steal sensitive data, such as passwords and credit card numbers.
ARP poisoning attacks are a type of attack where Bettercap tricks devices on your network into thinking that it is the router. This allows Bettercap to redirect traffic to fake websites or to perform other malicious activities.

Setting up an arp spoofing attack to a target
you can arp spoof the whole network by typing:
Start an arp spoofing attack
save the attack output as an pcap file (to analyze it on Wireshark)
to save all the information in the pcap file type this command:
let's Start sniffing
to stop sniffing type:
Selecting the IP Address to map the domaine to
Selecting the Domains to spoof
Start DNS Spoofing
to stop dns spoofing type

Evil twin attacks are a type of man-in-the-middle attack where the attacker creates a fake Wi-Fi network that looks identical to a legitimate one. When a victim connects to the fake network, the attacker can intercept their traffic and steal their data.
To carry out an evil twin attack, the attacker needs to set up a rogue access point (AP) that is broadcasting the same SSID (network name) and BSSID (MAC address) as a legitimate AP. This can be done using a variety of tools and techniques, such as software-defined radios (SDRs) or Wi-Fi adapters that support packet injection.
Once the rogue AP is set up, the attacker will need to deauthenticate victims from the legitimate AP so that they will connect to the rogue AP instead. This can be done by sending deauthentication packets to the victims.
Once the victims are connected to the rogue AP, the attacker can intercept their traffic and steal their data. This can include things like login credentials, credit card numbers, and other sensitive information.

To protect yourself from evil twin attacks, you should:
Only connect to Wi-Fi networks that you trust.
If you are unsure whether a network is legitimate, ask the network owner for the password.
Use a VPN when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks.
Keep your antivirus software up to date.
Be careful about what information you share online.
Be aware of your surroundings. If you are in a public place and you see a Wi-Fi network that you don't recognize, be suspicious.
Use a strong password for your Wi-Fi network.
Change your Wi-Fi password regularly.
Enable encryption on your Wi-Fi network.
Keep your firmware up to date.
If you think you have been the victim of an evil twin attack, you should change your passwords immediately and contact your bank or credit card company to report any fraudulent charges. You should also contact the network owner of the legitimate network to let them know about the fake network.
