Europe hotels facing Sniffing attacks


Hi guyzz !!!!

I am here with new post !!!!

After the attack of WannaCry Ransomware, again a big attack in Europe to hack the  Wi-Fi passwords of hotels with the help of Sniffing.


What is Sniffing attack and how Sniffing attack done  

A sniffer is an application that can capture network packets. Sniffers are also known as network protocol analyzers. While protocol analyzers are really network troubleshooting tools, they also used by hackers for hacking networks . 
If the network packets are not encrypted, the data within the network packets can be read using sniffer. Once the packet is captured using a sniffer, the contents of packet can be analyzed.
Sniffers are used by hackers to take all the network information of the users such as password, account information Sniffing is generally a type of "Passive" attack where hackers can be mute/ invisible on the network and that's why sniffing is a dangerous attack 

And if you want to download Sniffer for free many are available like :- wire-shark, D sniff. Ether peek, sniff it etc. 

The group of hackers  name  APT28 are the new group of hackers which are responsible for this attack. This is the type of Eternal Blue. The eternal blue was leaked by brown Brockers, a hacking group, on April 14 2017. This is also used in WannaCry ransomware attack. Eternal blue was established in U.S by National security Agency (NSA) and others attack too like, one was NotPetya attack and so many else is done towards the against of Europe Hotels. This group of APT28 also known as the fancy group .

The hackers of this group have a first spear-phishing Champion which target process and then attack to multiple hospitals, companies, hotels, industries and so many in Europe. Many countries along with the middle east Europe have been a victim of this attack .

   A message read as "hotel-reservation-from-doc", which is a type of Macro has been successfully found before its execution. Then  by decoding it has shown as Game-Fish. If you install Game-fish in computer system, all the WiFi and password of guests or users could be accessible with the help of Eternal blue and all the control then transferred to the hacker group and can steal the data as per they want . 

In the end please do no connect your mobile with hotels WiFi it could be dangerous to you..
be safe!!!!!!
