A quid pro quo attack is a type of social engineering attack in which an attacker promises a benefit or service in exchange for information or access to a system.
• Used by attackers to gain access to sensitive systems by offering fake technical support or services in exchange for login credentials or access.• Employed in scams where attackers promise rewards in exchange for personal or financial information.
Attackers offer something valuable, such as technical support, a reward, or a service, in exchange for sensitive information like passwords or system access.
Victims may unknowingly provide access to attackers, leading to data theft, account compromise, or financial fraud.
Organizations can prevent such attacks by educating employees about social engineering tactics, implementing strong access controls, and verifying unsolicited offers or services.
