Secure Your Website So Your Customers Don't Get Mugged

Secure Your Website So Your Customers Don't Get Mugged
PCMAG | APRIL 23, 2015

"You don't expect to get mugged when you walk into a store," said Tom Kellerman, Trend Micro's Chief Cybersecurity Office, "You expect facility security."
""We've seen a 25 percent increase in watering hole attacks globally," said Kellermann, "Half are in the U.S., and 45 million appeared in the first half of the year." A watering hole attack is a seemingly innocuous website that can automatically infect visiting browsers, without any interaction by the user. Just as the jungle predator waits for prey and then leaps, the malicious code activates when a likely victim arrives. And any website with insufficient security can be injected with code that turns it into a watering hole."
