Question

On a switched network, which type of attack allows an attacker to capture and analyze all traffic passing through the network? a) Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) b) Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) c) Smurf Attack d) Packet Sniffing

Answer 1

Packing Sniffing.

When someone packet sniffs, they analyse, capture or log all the data packets that pass through a computer network. If they capture/log them, they can analyse it further and read sensitive data.
