MITM attacks are detected by intercepting network configuration traffic (name resolution, DHCP, ARP, ICMP, etc.) in order to obtain a description of network components. A computer system generates artificial requests for network configuration information and monitors responses. Multiple responses indicate a MITM attack. Responses that are different from previously-recorded responses also indicate a MITM attack. MITM attacks may be confirmed by transmitting fake credentials to a source of a response to a request for network configuration information. If the fake credentials are accepted or are subsequently used in an access attempt, then a MITM attack may be confirmed.
