Your opinions about ARP Guard app

[Abdallah]

I want your opinions about ARP Guard (WiFi Security) app

In my opinion it is very solid app, tested it against some simple ARP spoofing windows apps and it works very well, lately the developer added (Full Internet Access) permission to the app, this is not a problem for me as I only gave it access to my local network through my android firewall app.

I want also to test it more, so if anybody here have good experiance about this kind of attacks it well be good.

Well, Wikileaks released today new tools documentations used to spy and redirect local network users using ARP Spoofing attaks!

ARP spoofing is getting harder and harder to do without being detected specially since more and more networks are implementing host isolation so you cant see anyone else on the network. The trivial nature of ARP spoofing makes it do-able by anyone... it's just finding a network that it works on is becoming harder IMHO.

I do remember testing tools like arpguard and they worked pretty well. Doesn't hurt to use it but I found that an app called Wifi Privacy Police has been more useful for me out in the world
