Firesheep is a small application that will allow you to check if anyone is trying to attack or steal your session on any social network, like Facebook or Twitter. With the proliferation of different social networks, the amount of attacks against general privacy have also increased, especially in cases where the users use open Wi-Fi networks.
This add-on for Firefox will allow any user to know if anybody is trying to steal their social network access data. It's very important to know if the services that you use are secure, and if you check that they aren't always ask for encrypted connections to take place. Firesheep works if you're connected to an open public Wi-Fi network.
Once installed, a tab that will show the data of the users that are connected to that unsecure network will appear. By simply moving your mouse over the icon of each user and service, you'll be able to know the user name and password that they used when they accessed that social network.
Firesheep can come in handy to realize how dangerous it is to visit certain social networks on unsafe connections.

In this experiment, we will capture traffic on an 802.11 network and observe the 802.11 MAC frame fields using Wireshark. You will have to download and install Wireshark to run this experiment. You already know that if you want to lock down your Wi-Fi network, you should opt for WPA encryption because WEP is easy to crack. But did you know how easy? Free Download Aircrack-ng GUI 1.1 / 1.2 RC 5 - A powerful software solution that can be used to crack wireless security keys, namely WEP and WPA, us. Aircrack-ng, free and safe download. Aircrack-ng latest version: Assess your Wi-Fi network security with these free tools. Aircrack-ng allows you to asses the security of your Wi-Fi network with its suite of tools.
This download requires that you have WinPcap installed.

Cain and Abel (often abbreviated to Cain) is a password recovery tool for Microsoft Windows. It can recover many kinds of passwords using methods such as network packet sniffing, cracking various password hashes by using methods such as dictionary attacks, brute force and cryptanalysis attacks.[1]Cryptanalysis attacks are done via rainbow tables which can be generated with the winrtgen.exe program provided with Cain and Abel.[2]Cain and Abel is maintained by Massimiliano Montoro[3] and Sean Babcock.

Status with virus scanners[edit]
Some virus scanners (and browsers, e.g. Google Chrome 20.0.1132.47) detect Cain and Abel as malware.

Avast! detects it as 'Win32:Cain-B [Tool]' and classifies it as 'Other potentially dangerous program',[4] while Microsoft Security Essentials detects it as 'Win32/Cain!4_9_14' and classifies it as 'Tool: This program has potentially unwanted behavior.'Even if Cain's install directory, as well as the word 'Cain', are added to Avast's exclude list, the real-time scanner has been known to stop Cain from functioning. However, the latest version of Avast no longer blocks Cain.
Symantec (the developer of the Norton family of computer security software) identified a buffer overflowvulnerability in version 4.9.24 that allowed for remote code execution in the event the application was used to open a large RDP file, as might occur when using the program to analyze network traffic.[5] The vulnerability had been present in the previous version (4.9.23) as well[6] and was patched in a subsequent release.
