SSL Interception with Fake Access Point

This video tutorial demonstrates how to intercept HTTPS traffic using a man-in-the-middle attack. It begins with a recap of intercepting HTTP traffic and then explains the encryption of HTTPS and TLS. The tutorial guides viewers through setting up a man-in-the-middle attack by using fake certificates to intercept encrypted data. It includes a practical demonstration using Wi-Fi Pineapple and SSL split modules to extract sensitive information like usernames and passwords from HTTPS traffic.
