Hi!
Get informed about one of the latest attacks - called Web Spoofing -
This kind of attack is also one of the most dangerous ones (SSL doesn't
help) and is very hard to detect.
The "Security & Hackerscene" site located at
http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/3498/security.htm
has more:
+ What is Web Spoofing
+ What an attacker could do
+ How the attack works
+ Ways how to protect yourself against this kind of attack
+ The possibility to try it out!
If you find there is still something missing on the "Security &
Hackerscene"
site please send me your suggestions, ... to help making this site a
better
one.
