Recently I’ve been studying about Network Security. For a year, I’ve been using ettercap for pentesting and investigation, I even wrote a Lex app for it, but recently I’ve found a tool which is pretty similar but way better, logs are pretty organized and have better commands. I must say I will be using linux, there are options for network monitoring in Windows, but I’m not going to talk about them in this article.
