SSLv3 POODLE Attack
SSLv3 POODLE Attack is a type of cyber attack that can harm your computer or other devices. It happens when a hacker tricks your web browser into thinking it’s communicating with a secure website, but instead they intercept and read the encrypted data.
This attack is called “POODLE” because it stands for “Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption.” In simpler terms, it means the hacker can decrypt your secure data by exploiting vulnerabilities in outdated encryption protocols.
Fortunately, this type of attack can be prevented by using updated encryption protocols and disabling SSLv3. So if you’re ever asked to enable SSLv3 on your device or web browser, it’s best to say no to protect your personal information and keep your device safe from hackers.
