An efficient and feasible solution to ARP Spoof problem

ARP Spoof (aka. ARP cache poisoning) is a serious security problem. It can be used for denial of service (DoS) or man in the middle (MITM) attacks. There have been several solutions, proposed to solve this problem. Yet, all of the previous have some critical drawbacks such as infeasibility, unmanageability, high cost, performance penalty and ineffectiveness. Hence, in this paper, we have proposed a new solution, which is feasible, manageable, effective, low cost, platform independent and usable for both small and medium network sizes. A prototyped system, called dynamic ARP-spoof protection & surveillance (DAPS) system has also been implemented and experimented on. The experimental results have demonstrated the favorable features of our solution in comparison to the previous ones.
