<p><b>Lesson Plan Title:</b> Insecure Login</p>
</div>
<p><b>Concept / Topic To Teach:</b> </p>
<!-- Start Instructions -->
Sensitive data should never sent in plaintext! Often applications
switch to a secure connection after the authorization. An attacker
could just sniff the login and use the gathered information to
break into an account. A good webapplication always takes care of
encrypting sensitive data.
<p><b>General Goal(s):</b> </p>
See how easy it is to sniff a password in plaintext.<br>
Understand the advantages of encrypting the login data!
