WHO

Amichai Shulman, CTO, Imperva™, Inc.

WHAT

Traditional Phishing attacks transparently redirect victims to fraudulent web pages on the attacker’s website, but a new type of attack redirects victims to a real web page on a legitimate website to carry out identity theft and financial fraud. These attacks exploit web site vulnerabilities known as Cross Site Scripting (XSS) and Script Injection.   This presentation, entitled Real Site Phishing and Advanced Cross Site Scripting, will use an e-commerce application to demonstrate how these techniques work and explain how organizations can defend against them.  Attendees will learn:

  • How Phishing techniques exploit vulnerabilities of the target site
  • How Cross Site Scripting attacks work and are carried out
  • What protection mechanisms can be used to defend against Phishing attacks that exploit Cross Site Scripting and Script Injection vulnerabilities
