    Default Wifi Protector - Protect Your Android From Wi-Fi Sniffing Attacks



    The only app that is able to countermeasure "Man In The Middle" attacks on Android platform - Wifi Protector. No other app provides this type of high network security. Protects your phone from tools like FaceNiff, Cain & Abel, ANTI, ettercap, DroidSheep, NetCut, and all others that try to hijack your session via "Man In The Middle" through ARP spoofing / ARP poisoning.



    WifiKill can't take you offline with this app installed. The "Immunity" feature is the only one that requires root, all other features work without root access.

    Features
    - Uses very few resources
    - Uses no resources if Wi-Fi is disabled
    - Nearly zero battery consumption
    - Requires very few permissions. Requests only absolutely necessary permissions
    - Undetectable by the bad guy
    - 100% silent and passive inside the network. Generates no noise
    - Highly customizable notifications
    - Plays ringtone on attack (optional)
    - Vibrates in a given pattern on attack (optional)
    - Easy to use one-click-interface as well as detailed network view for experts
    - "Immunity" protects you without disabling Wi-Fi (root required)
    - Can also disable Wi-Fi if you don't have root access to your phone
    - Logging of all spoofing attempts with details about the network and the attacker
    - Works in complex wireless LANs, like vWLAN and WDS (please see FAQ)
    - Detects networks already under attack
    - Automatic countermeasures

    You will be better off with it. I have performed a MITM attack under a controlled environment for testing purposes and can tell you how dangerous it is. Your android may end up connecting to a rogue access point, and the hacker may still be able to allow access to the internet so you will probably have no idea that your android has switched to another network (the hacker can create a new network with your routers ESSID (name) and MAC address and you wont be able to tell them apart). The hacker can then intercept all the traffic on the network and can steal any login information..
