"Man In The Browser" Attacks Increasing
Filed in archive Security measures by Sue Walsh on November 26, 2007

"With the enhancements that banks have deployed in terms of authentication security on their online banking sites, phishing attacks are becoming less and less effective and attacks of the 'Man in the Browser' are set to increase," says F-Secure's Chief Research Officer Mikko Hypponen.
The most effective tool to prevent such attacks appears to be security products that use behavioral analysis because the malicious codes are tailored for specific banks rather than being mass distributed. This new technique will prove challenging to security software publishers attempting to index threats.
