Posted on April 7, 2009 at 12:41 pm Identity can be theft in various ways1. By creating fake login page: In this method attacker creates a fake login page and asks user to login into his account.when user types his or her user name and password, these information goes to attacker,after that real login page is displayed backed to to user.User thinks that he had typed the user name and password incorrect, and he types again.In thw meanwhile user name and password combination goes to the attacker.2.Key logger is another type of identity stealing program.key logger is a small .exe file, which steals the key stokes typed by user.So click on the unknown .exe file.3. Cookie stealing is another method of identity stealing.HTTP is a stateless protocol, so every site keeps record of its authenticated user by using cookies.By stealing these cookies attacker can steal the identity of the user.So clear the browser cookies after u logout from a site.
