Motivated by the lure of profits from the sale of stolen confidential information, cyber criminals nowadays are shifting to the Web as the medium for their malicious activities. Characterized by blended techniques, an explosion of variants, and targeted regional attacks, Web threats pose a broad range of potential costs, including identify theft, loss of business confidential information, damaged brand reputation, and erosion of consumer confidence in Web commerce. These high stakes, the pervasive use of the Web, and the complexity of protecting against Web threats combine to form perhaps the greatest challenge to protecting the privacy of personal information and the confidentiality of business information in a decade. This paper describes Web threats, how they function, and their impacts.
