DEVELOPING A BASIC UNDERSTANDING ABOUT SPOOF ATTACKS.
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper provides an overview of spoofing and helps readers gain a better knowledge of
the different types of assaults that are feasible, as well as how to protect themselves from
such attacks. Spoofing attacks, in which an attacker replaces the original source address in
the header with a new one in order to conceal their identity and location, continue to be one
of the most devastating types of cyber-attacks. One of the most common spoofing attacks that
users today are subjected to is the email spoofing attack, in which the spoofer obtains
information about the email user before attacking through a fake email sender with fake
messages and viruses to attack the user's system, mail list, and other resources, resulting in
greater destruction to the email user who unknowingly opened and reacted to that mail.
