Question

Elias runs a website that allows users to post on it. Because of this feature, what sort of attack does he need to deploy countermeasures against? (1 point)

reflected XSS

stored XSS

scripted XSS

linked XSS

Answer 1

Elias needs to deploy countermeasures against **stored XSS** (Cross-Site Scripting). This type of attack occurs when a malicious user posts harmful scripts that are stored on the server and later served to other users who visit the site. Proper input validation and sanitization are necessary to prevent this type of vulnerability.
