Hi all -
I am translating a document into English concerning network protocols and network management software, and what it does, etc.
The context:
Es importante que no puedan realizarse escuchas del tráfico de red que permitan obtener información técnica, contraseñas, datos de negocio, datos personales, etc.
How would this term best be translated into English? (In Word ref someone suggested "it was about wire tapping/telephone bugging" except this has nothing to do with telephones, it has to do with computer networks security being breached.)
I would appreciate anyone kindly sharing their expertise!
Thanks much!

: Yes, David. One 'listens' to network traffic. One can also monitor this traffic too. Good :)

Sniffers is what I expected (I have a software background, not networking). I had thought of packet sniffing but that seems to be a completely different term according to this blog...
