Most begin with a deliberate, quiet process known as footprinting. Before any malware is deployed or password is cracked, attackers spend time gathering data about their target to understand weaknesses and plan the most effective strategy. Footprinting is the reconnaissance phase of a cyberattack. It helps hackers create a comprehensive profile of the target\u2019s digital infrastructure, networks, personnel, and vulnerabilities. This isn\u2019t just theory\u2014real-world attacks often succeed because the attacker knew more about the target than the target knew..."}
