Introduction to session hijacking | ethical hacking tutorial | @itspyguru

This video is for educational purpose only. Misusing it in an uncontrolled non-test environment may cause you legal trouble.

This video delves into the critical security concept of session hijacking. We'll explore how attackers can steal valid session IDs to gain unauthorized access to user accounts.

What is Session Hijacking?

Session hijacking occurs when an attacker steals a user's valid session ID, allowing them to impersonate the legitimate user and access their account without proper authorization.

In this video, you'll learn:

* How Sessions Work: Understand the fundamental concepts of web sessions and how they are used to maintain user state.
Identifying Session IDs: Discover how session IDs are typically transmitted and stored.
* Session Hijacking Techniques: Explore various techniques used by attackers to steal session IDs, including:
Network Sniffing: Intercepting network traffic to capture session IDs.
* Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Exploiting XSS vulnerabilities to steal cookies containing session IDs.
* Brute-Force Attacks: Attempting to guess session IDs.
* Practical Demonstration: A live demonstration of session hijacking techniques (for educational purposes only) to illustrate the real-world impact of this vulnerability.
* Mitigating Session Hijacking: Learn about effective measures to prevent session hijacking, such as using HTTPS, implementing secure session management, and employing strong authentication mechanisms.

Ethical Considerations:
