A "poison packet attack" is when someone throws a bunch of poison in your face. There are two ways to do this.
Https is a protocol used to secure websites from being tampered with by other parties without proper authorization. it bridges the gap between sender and receiver.Using protocols like secure socket layer/TLS, HTTPS encrypts data sent over the internet, making it unreadable to anybody who shouldn't have it.This prevents a "man in the middle" assault on the system.Such assaults intercept messages before they reach their intended recipient.It then transmits the revised information to the user.It guarantees the server's authenticity, too.
Assume Alice and Bob are communicating via a computer network.Suppose Trudy arranges herself in the network such she can catch all packets transmitted by Alice and send whatever she wants to Bob. List some of Trudy's harmful actions from here.
