What kind of attacks involve intercepting network packets?

Attacks that involve intercepting network packets include Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks, where an attacker eavesdrops on or alters communication between two parties. Packet sniffing is another method, often used to capture sensitive data such as passWords and credit card information from unencrypted traffic. Additionally, session hijacking can occur when an attacker intercepts and takes over a user's active session by capturing session tokens or cookies.
