I too have performed MITM attacks on my network with Cain & Able. Also having grabbed a few HTTP and FTP passwords seeing that it was successful I now need to secure my self against these attacks but how can I do this? Would static MAC mappings in my hosts files do the trick?
Depends on what you are trying to protect against. There are five different techniques (that I'm aware of) for sniffing in a switched network. Each requires a different method of protection. I've posted a video here: http://www.chrisbrenton.org/sans/switch-sniffing-final.wmv which should help.
