Install Arpwatch to monitor ethernet/IP address pairings. It will alert you the moment it detects a "flip-flop" in MAC addresses, which usually indicates an ongoing attack. netcut kali linux
NetCut operates using a technique called ARP Cache Poisoning or ARP Spoofing. In a typical local network, devices use the Address Resolution Protocol to map IP addresses to physical MAC addresses. NetCut sends forged ARP responses to the router and the target device. By doing this, it convinces the target that the attacker's machine is the router and convinces the router that the attacker's machine is the target. Once this man-in-the-middle position is established, the attacker can choose to drop the packets, effectively cutting the target's internet connection. Why Use Kali Linux Instead of NetCut? set arp
