Network Sniffing Tool Execution on Linux
This rule detects the execution of common network sniffing tools, specifically 'tcpdump' or 'tshark', when they are invoked with arguments indicating an attempt to capture network traffic from a specific interface. The rule looks for the '-c' argument (for count) and the '-i' argument (for interface) in the command line, which are typical indicators of active network sniffing.
