>From security books I've read it's not hard to eavesdrop on network communication using tools like dsniff, even in a switched environment. My understanding is that it is accomplished quite easily by ARP poisoning your victim in thinking your machine's MAC as the router MAC & after interception, re-forwarding the traffic back to the true router MAC.
Assuming the network environment is large (e.g., configuring port switches for specific MAC addresses not practical) & desktop security cannot be guaranteed (and thereby cannot prevent people from allowing machines to IP forward), how can one defend against other than encrypting data.
