MAC spoofing using windows platform
Every Network Interface Card (NIC) on any platform has unique MAC address that used to access Ethernet networks. The MAC address is hard coded by the network card manufacturer and on many security systems used as a platform identity for network access permission. Using the MAC address of a platform with network permission rights by an intruder or malicious software instead of its original address called MAC spoofing.
MAC address network access control
MAC address spoofing is quite an easy task for a potential intruder especially when using MAC address of network nodes that are inactive most of the time like network printers and networking time and attendance systems. This is the main reason for not using MAC address protection as a single network access control (NAC) mechanism but combining multiple protection methods to create safe and reliable security protection like Security Center: IDS IPS Network Access Protection and Switch Protector: NAC Network Access Control Monitoring network security scanners.
