HOW HACKERS HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET
THE DEPTH OF HUMAN VULNERABILITY
now today we will talk about what are the methods used by hackers to steal you crypto wallet account inclined with the past topic I did.
1.
PHISHING What is phishing? it was a kind of attack where an attacker will lure a victim or person to login in a certain website that was forge by him/her. at first it was look like as the legitimate website from its logos and images and functions but the funny thing is it was a fake website if you careful enough you will look for the url bar let say the legitimate site was
www.bitcoinwallet.com then the fake site was
www.bitcoinwallet.co see the little difference is the letter
m if you are not careful enough to look for the link provided in the url bar you will fall to it's trap then say goodbye to you wallet so question?
HOW TO PREVENT IT? easy as Don't open links from malicious emails
and always check for the green lock in the url bar.
2.
MAN IN THE MIDDLE ATTACK or MITM The good thing in this is that this method can't be implemented if you are not on the same network for example same wifi network or computer cafe.As what I said on my post to prevent hackers to hack your crypto wallet is to not to trust public wifi man in the middle attack is kind of phishing but with more advantage the attacker will just make you redirect all traffic to http site example the real site has the green lock and the word
https:// then once your under MITM the url will be always go like withouth the green lock and just using the word
http://then if you login to tha unsecured site all your input information on any of the form will be forwarded to the attacker perhaps you got hacked!!
how to avoid??
1.use an updated google chrome
2.install an internet antivirus.
3.do not make transaction with your btc wallet in public networks such as free wifi or internet cafe.
3.
BRUTEFORCING Bruteforcing is kind of method where the attacker will attempt many time to login with you account username with random password generated on the app they called cruch(kali linux basic password generating tool) if the attacker will know your email or username then he or she can do this by guessing your password from his or her password dictionary. this kind a long method to do takes a lot of time to finished.
how to stop or prevent?
1.do not give your username or email to untrusted person or individuals.
2.always turn on your 2FA incase you got hacked there will be and extra layer of security
