What is clickjacking? (245)
Clickjacking:- it's an attack that tricks a user into clicking a website page element that's invisible or impersonates as another element. This can cause users to accidentally download malware, visit malicious sites, provide credentials or sensitive information.
Typically, clickjacking is performed by displaying an imperceptible page or HTML element, inside an iframe, on top of the page the user sees. The user believes they're clicking the visible page but actually, they're clicking an invisible element within the additional page transposed on top of it.
The imperceptible page can be a malicious page or a permitted page the user didn't intend to visit – as for example, a page on the user’s banking site that authorizes the transfer of money.
