According to a lot of cybersecurity experts, fingerprinting is a type of abuse that indicates consumers' concerns about their privacy.
Several browsers have anti-browser fingerprinting technologies built into their software.
Please describe how each browser prevents fingerprinting so that we can select the best one.
Be sure to include at least two different kinds of cookies in this talk on internet security cookies.
For the RogueRaticate malware, please write a short paragraph based on the given background and website info:
The RogueRaticate campaign, otherwise known as FakeSG, was spotted by Proofpoint in May 2023 but its activity may date back to November 2022.
It's the first major fake-browser-update campaign to emerge since SocGholish and typically leads to the NetSupport RAT being installed on the victim's machine.
A month later in June, the first activity from the ZPHP campaign, also known as SmartApeSG, was spotted and finally made public in August by Trellix.
Like RogueRaticate, ZPHP also most often leads to the installation of NetSupport RAT, which has been infecting machines since around 2017, according to SentinelOne.
The most recent of the four campaigns is ClearFake, which was first spotted in July and made public in August by researcher Randy McEoin.
Proofpoint characterized ClearFake as a campaign that drops infostealer malware and is able to tailor lures not just by the user's…

- Phishing is one kind of electronic con artistry, and it is possible to combine it with spoofing and a number of other methods. Other methods may also be utilised. Phishing may also be used on its own by alone. What are the most effective preventive measures that can be taken to stop fraudulent activities like phishing and spoofing from happening, and how can these measures be taken?arrow_forward1.To defeat XSS attacks, a developer decides to implement filtering on the browser side. Basically, the developer plans to add JavaScript code on each page, so before data are sent to the server, it filters out any JavaScript code contained inside the data. Let’s assume that the filtering logic can be made perfect. Can this approach prevent XSS attacks? 2.What are the differences between XSS and CSRF attacks? 3.Can the secret token countermeasure be used to defeat XSS attacks? 4.Can the same-site cookie countermeasure for CSRF attacks be used to defeat XSS at- tacks? 5.To filter out JavaScript code from user input, can we just look for script tags, and remove them? If you can modify browser’s behavior, what would you add to browser, so you can help reduce the risks of XSS attacks?arrow_forwardPlease walk me through an example of an attack against online authentication that takes use of cookies.arrow_forward
- Compare the traditional password-based authentication method and facial recognition-based methods (such as FaceID from Apple). Please give one advantage of using passwords over facial recognition and one advantage of using facial recognition over passwords. arrow_forward“Social Engineering” tactics are often used by attackers to get someone to divulge personal information or to perform some action. What can you do to protect yourself from such attacks?Give a couple of examples of attempts that might occur and your recommended method of dealing with them.arrow_forwardIn the cyber world, "zero-day attacks" refer to cyber attacks that are so new to the Internet that no classification has been assigned to them and for which there are no patches available. Investigate zero-day assaults on the internet if you have the time. Describe a couple of zero-day attacks in detail.arrow_forward
- Please answer this question in common sense please dont use AI machine. The following sentence describes a dangerous attack on the Web Servers. Cite which type of threat it represents using the STRIDE. Most web servers have a public interface, even if the majority of the site is password protected, there is usually at least a login site and brochureware that is publicly available. HTTP requests to the site are also generally logged to a Weblog. From an attacker's point of view, standard HTTP requests containing a malicious payload can be sent to the public website (with no other access required), when those requests appear in the log (such as http://victimsite/index.html?< malicious script> if they are followed by an administrator this may be sufficient to probe the administrator's host or local networkarrow_forwardIt is necessary to have an in-depth discussion on cookies, specifically at least two distinct types of cookies, and the effect that they have on the safety of the internet.arrow_forwardAs stated, third party cookies usually do not contain in themselves, data that identifies you as a particular person. However, Amazon, Facebook, and other first party cookie vendors know who you are because you signed in. Only one of them needs to reveal your identity to the ad server and your identity can then be correlated with your IP address. At that point, the ad server and potentially all its clients know who you are. /are you concerned about the invasion of your privacy that third-party cookies enable? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- Hacktivists often use DDoS attacks against organizations that they perceive as being opposed to them. This includes not only government but also journalists, publications, and human rights groups. Google's parent Alphabet has stepped up to help with thwarting DDoS against these groups. Since 2016 Project Shield has thwarted DDoS attacks against hundreds of websites in over 80 countries. These attacks were directed at websites in order to silence important information. Project Shield was offered for free to journalists, small publications, human rights groups, and others. But Google is doing that from its own initiative at a relatively high cost. Should there instead be a tax on computer hardware and/or software that goes towards a fund that is then used for organizations like this to have permanent DDOS mitigation?arrow_forwardIn this section, you may expect to learn in depth about at least four various kinds of cookies, as well as how cookies affect the safety of the internet.arrow_forwardThere has to be a lengthy discussion on cookies, especially at least two different kinds of cookies, and their influence on internet safety.arrow_forward
