Session hijacking occurs when an attacker intercepts or takes over an active session between a user and a service, allowing the attacker to gain unauthorized access to the user's account or data.
• Used by attackers to gain access to a user's account by stealing session cookies or tokens.• Employed in web-based attacks where sessions are inadequately protected or encrypted.
Attackers intercept session cookies or session tokens transmitted over insecure channels, allowing them to take control of a user's active session.
Session hijacking can lead to unauthorized access to user accounts, enabling attackers to steal data, perform transactions, or impersonate users.
Session hijacking can be mitigated by using strong encryption (e.g., HTTPS), securing session tokens, and implementing short session expiration times.
