ARP
spoofing is a serious problem for network security. It allows hackers to trick
a network by linking their own MAC address to a real device’s IP address. This
lets them steal, change, or block network traffic. Hackers can use this to
launch attacks like Man in the Middle, session hijacking, and Denial of
service. Old methods to detect ARP spoofing, like fixed IP-MAC lists and ICMP
checks, do not work well in large or real-time systems. This paper suggests a
smart way to find and stop ARP spoofing using Bettercap and Deep Packet
Inspection (DPI). Bettercap watches ARP traffic in real time, while DPI
carefully checks network packets for unusual activity. Together, these tools
quickly and accurately detect ARP spoofing with little impact on network speed.
The system keeps an eye on ARP messages, deeply examines packet details, and
finds suspicious changes. When it detects an attack, it blocks harmful packets,
fixes the ARP table with correct information, and informs network admins.
