Video on demand services have become popular in recent years. Not only because of the number of users but also because of the number of devices compatible with these platforms. These platforms require the use of credit cards, something that is very easy to steal nowadays.
The bizarre part of today's story is how cybercriminals managed to steal victims' credit card data, as revealed by the manufacturer Palo Alto Networks.
Cybercriminals made use of a cloud video hosting service to carry out their attack. On that video website, los criminales inyectaron una serie de scripts maliciosos para interceptar la información que introducían las víctimas, aprovechando que la página web normalmente ya usaba pagos con tarjeta de crédito previamente.
Estos casos nos recuerdan el cuidado que se debería tener al depositar los datos bancarios en ciertas plataformas.
