Implementing anomaly-based systems that monitor round-trip time (RTT) and deviations in network behavior to detect MITM attacks in real-time.

Below is an outline and summary paper based on the core security best practices and technical concepts detailed in that foundational session. Understanding, Preventing, and Defending Agains...

While most security focuses on Layers 3 through 7, the Data Link Layer (Layer 2) remains a critical yet often overlooked vulnerability surface. This paper outlines the primary attack vectors—including MAC flooding, DHCP spoofing, and VLAN hopping—and provides a framework for multi-layered defense strategies in switched Ethernet environments. 1.
