What is typosquatting? A simple but effective attack technique

Typosquatting is a lookalike domain with one or two wrong or different characters with the aim of trying to trick people onto the wrong webpage. It is a type of social engineering where threat actors impersonate legitimate domains for malicious purposes such as fraud or malware spreading. In some cases, typosquatted domains can be used in various attack campaign stages to achieve geopolitical objectives, such as network intrusion or data exfiltration. The motivation is almost always financial in the end, but geopolitical motives can’t be dismissed either.”]
