Web vulnerabilities are rampant and constantly increasing. Maintaining the security and privacy of your users is more important than ever.
Websites and web applications are vulnerable to malware, spam, and other attacks - this article focuses on one such attack vector - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. CSRF attacks are particularly troubling because they can occur without the user’s knowledge. They’re also difficult for a developer or website owner to detect because the malicious requests appear highly similar to genuine requests.
This video explores a CSRF attack, how it works, and the steps you can take to prepare for one.
