Stopping AiTM attacks: The defenses that actually work after authentication succeeds
The security industry has spent years building better authentication. Longer passwords, second factors, hardware tokens. And attackers responded by moving past authentication entirely. Adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) phishing does not steal credentials and replay them. It sits between the user and the legitimate service, watches a real authentication succeed in real time, and walks away with the…
