Re: Detect Network Sniffing

[Adam Mooz <adam.mooz () gmail com>]

If you know what they're looking for (eg: ISP looking for torrenting
or a Bad Guy Bob trying to steal credentials off the wire) you could
use some red herrings.  Download a bunch of Linux distributions using
Torrents (perfectly legit) or set up some trapped admin logins to see
if they show up anywhere.

Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate
In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.  We look at how SSL works, how 
it benefits your company and how your customers can tell if a site is secure. You will find out how to test, purchase, 
install and use a thawte Digital Certificate on your Apache web server. Throughout, best practices for set-up are 
highlighted to help you ensure efficient ongoing management of your encryption keys and digital certificates.
