1. sniffer

   A sniffer is a software or hardware tool that allows a user to monitor and analyze network traffic by intercepting and logging data that is passed over a digital network. It works by capturing packets of data that flow through a particular network path, helping identify potential issues or track suspicious activities. They are commonly used for troubleshooting technical issues, detecting network intrusion, and in cybersecurity to possibly prevent or detect hacking attempts.
