With the deployment of “always-connected” broadband Internet access, personal networks are a privileged target for attackers and DNS-based corruption. Pharming attacks - an enhanced version of phishing attacks - aim to steal users' credentials by redirecting them to a fraudulent login website, using DNS-based techniques that make the attack imperceptible to the end-user.
