DroidSheep allows any internet user to check the security of his internet connection. Even non-professionals can check, if their data is sent without protection and allows them to decide whether to use the hotspot or not. Goal of my bachelor thesis is the analysis and demonstration of poor security most websites offer. Here are a few reports about what DroidSheep does and how easy it is to use it (German language):
