Ethical Hacking: Session Hijacking

- [Malcolm] One of the more sophisticated forms of cyber attack involves taking over an existing session from an unsuspecting user. This enables an attacker to immediately have access to whatever the user was accessing at the time and to have the same privileges as the victim had. I'm Malcolm Shore, and I've spent a career helping governments and businesses protect their systems against cyber attacks. In this course, I'll explain how an attacker can hijack your sessions by misusing the TCP, web, and wireless protocols. I'll also describe how wireless session hijacking is used to take over physical devices, such as remotely piloted cars and drone aircraft. If you're keen to learn more about how criminals can hijack your online sessions, then do join me in my LinkedIn Learning Session Hijacking course.
