An eavesdropping attack, also known as a sniffing or snooping attack, takes advantage of unsecured network communications to access data and theft information as it is being sent or received by its user.
A simple modification of the data transmitted over the network.
Corruption of the data transmitted over the network, like removing bytes, changing headers, etc.
Type of hacking technique related to man-in-the-middle and replay attacks. In a classic relay attack, the attacker initiates communication with both parties who then merely relays messages between the two parties without manipulating them or even necessarily reading them.
