Malvertising (malicious advertising) involves injecting malicious code into online advertisements to spread malware or direct users to malicious websites, often without the user’s knowledge.
• Used by attackers to infect websites or display malicious ads on legitimate ad networks, tricking users into clicking malicious content.• Employed in large-scale attacks to distribute malware or phishing links through online ad platforms.
Attackers inject malicious code into legitimate online advertisements, which can infect a user’s device when they view or click on the ad.
Malvertising can lead to malware infections, data theft, or the redirection of users to phishing websites.
Users can protect themselves by using ad blockers, keeping browsers and plugins updated, and avoiding suspicious links or ads.
