Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Attack Explained | Cisco SCOR 350-701 Security Course

What if a trusted website could run malicious code inside your browser… without you knowing?

In this video, we explain Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) as part of the Cisco SCOR 350-701 course, based on real-world attack scenarios.

XSS is not just about inserting random code into a website. It is an attack that targets how web applications handle user-supplied content.

When input is not properly sanitized, attackers can inject malicious scripts into web pages. The browser then executes this code as if it were trusted, leading to serious security risks.

🔐 What You’ll Learn:
- What Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) really is
- How attackers inject malicious scripts into web applications
- How XSS executes inside the victim’s browser
- Real examples using comments, forms, and input fields
- How attackers steal cookies and session data
- The impact on confidentiality, integrity, and user trust

🎯 Real-World Impact:
- Session hijacking through stolen cookies
- Capturing sensitive user input
- Redirecting victims to malicious sites
- Manipulating page content without detection

🎯 Who Is This For:
- SCOR 350-701 students
- Cybersecurity professionals
- Network and security engineers
- Anyone interested in ethical hacking

🚀 Why This Matters:
XSS does not attack the server directly — it targets the user. That’s why it remains one of the most dangerous web vulnerabilities.
