Man-in-the-middle attack
A Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack is a type of cybersecurity attack where an attacker intercepts or inserts themselves into the communication between two parties without their knowledge. In this attack, the attacker positions themselves between the sender and the receiver and can potentially eavesdrop on, alter, or manipulate the communication. This can lead to a breach of confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of the data being exchanged.
