Question 125/126

During a security assessment, a penetration tester captures plaintext login credentials on the communication between a user and an authentication system. The tester wants to use this information for further unauthorized access.
Which of the following tools is the tester using?

A. Burp Suite

B. Wireshark

C. Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP)

D. Metasploit

Correct Answer: B

Capturing plaintext credentials in network traffic is done using packet sniffing. Wireshark is the best tool for this task.
* Option A (Burp Suite) #: Used for web application testing and intercepting HTTPS traffic, but not general network sniffing.
* Option B (Wireshark) #: Correct.
* Wireshark is a packet analysis tool that captures unencrypted network traffic, including plaintext credentials.
* Option C (ZAP - Zed Attack Proxy) #: Similar to Burp Suite, but focused on web application security, not network packet capture.
* Option D (Metasploit) #: Metasploit is used for exploitation rather than capturing traffic.
