Eric has discovered a fantastic package of tools named Dsniff on the Internet. He has learnt to use these tools in his lab and is now ready for real world exploitation. He was able to effectively inte

'Interceptor' is not a recognized standard attack classification in security frameworks; the scenario described matches the formal definition of a man-in-the-middle attack.

A man-in-the-middle attack involves an attacker secretly inserting themselves into a communication stream, establishing independent connections with both endpoints and relaying messages between them. Dsniff is a well-known suite that facilitates MITM attacks via ARP poisoning and session hijacking, allowing Eric to intercept credentials and relay data from both sides without either party being aware.

ARP Proxy is a network technique where a device responds to ARP requests on behalf of another host; it is a mechanism sometimes used within a MITM attack but is not the name for the overall attack pattern.

'Poisoning Attack' refers specifically to a sub-technique such as ARP or DNS poisoning used to redirect traffic, not to the broader attack pattern of intercepting and relaying a full communication session between two parties.
