level42 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 So, I told my friend about the show and he absolutly loved it ... unfortunatly my entire CLASS watches is now and now EVERYONE knows how to "HACK" with cain n able. So... the porblem is that peoples passwords are being shuffled around because its being captured by everyone in class. My Question is .... whats the simplest way to BLOCK being attacked, or to atleast find out whos attacking me for example. Thanks in advanced! level42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 trace route to the server might reveal that you are been ARP poisoned. Trouble is there is no way to block it short of physically connecting your computer to another switch on that network. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Given the apparent fact that people are sniffing your packets, use only programs that use a secure protocol for their authentication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeoneE1se Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Given the apparent fact that people are sniffing your packets, use only programs that use a secure protocol for their authentication. and if theres ever about the security STOP cain and able will insert it's own certs and firefox should complain Update: windows has a nice little feature 'arp' 1 open a command window 2 get the real mac address for your router 3 in the command window type: arp -s [routers IP address] [routers mac address] so it should look something like arp -s 192.168.0.1 00-ab-75-34-d4-66 now this only works half way but it's better then nothing and after I test it i'll let you know how it works Update 2: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documen...p.mspx?mfr=true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaKo Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 OutPost Firewall detects and blocks arp poisoning, much to my annoyance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
level42 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 Hey guys ... thanks for all the great suggestions ... today in class me and my friend will put these to the test :) thanks again level42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyedie Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 that pretty much sucks... but if your paranoid like I am then you probably assume that everyone in the room is sniffing your packets anyway. my menthods: 1. confuse the sniffers and make your self smile by typing messages to them in unsafe logins, ex: username: HeyDouchbag Password: tryagain! or You have just recieved a virus. 2. use safe protocols, programs, and websites 3. dont do anything incriminating while there 4. sniff them... or worse.. do what is necessary, become a super skiddie and try your luck with metasploit against them 5. be creative and have fun!

Heinzanova Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 This is why, dispite how simple and public knowledge some of this stuff is. Don't share information with people who can't be trusted, if they are not smart enough to google and find ways todo thing, don't put the power in their hands. "A little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing".... ever so true in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinzanova Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I dunno about that it took my retarded friends a whole windows release to make it obsolete to get over winNuking the shit out of each other. It wasn't safe for anyone to go on ICQ, you'd come on, and instantly you'd be off LOL Then I found Linux, and my life was changed. I had friends, I became popular and I even got into a great school and a better job. Thanks Linux :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
