Image result for what is ettercapEttercap is a tool made by Alberto Ornaghi (ALoR) and Marco Valleri (NaGA) and is basically a suite for man in the middle attacks on a LAN.
It supports active and passive dissection of many protocols and includes many features for network and host analysis.
It is capable of intercepting traffic on a network segment, capturing passwords, and conducting active eavesdropping against a number of common protocols.
  Ettercap is a free and open source network security tool for man-in-the-middle attacks on LAN.
It can be used for computer network protocol analysis and security auditing.
It runs on various Unix-like operating systems including Linux, Mac OS X, BSD and Solaris, and on Microsoft Windows.
It is capable of intercepting traffic on a network segment, capturing passwords, and conducting active eavesdropping against a number of common protocols.
  Ettercap uses four models:
  IP: The packets are filtered based on source and destination.
MAC: Packet filtering based on MAC address.
ARP: ARP poisoning is used to sniff/hijack switched LAN connections (full-duplex).
Public ARP: ARP poisoning is used to allow sniffing of one host to any other host.

Specific knowledge of the application's code/internal structure and programming knowledge in general is not required. The tester is aware of what the software is supposed to do but is not aware of how it does it. For instance, the tester is aware that a particular input returns a certain, invariable output but is not aware of how the software produces the output in the first place. In penetration testing, black-box testing refers to a methodology where an ethical hacker has no knowledge of the system being attacked. The goal of a black-box penetration test is to simulate an external hacking or cyber...
