Q: 7
Given: John Smith uses a coffee shop's Internet hot-spot (no authentication or encryption) to transfer
funds between his checking and savings accounts at his bank's website. The bank’s website uses the
HTTPS protocol to protect sensitive account information. While John was using the hot-spot, a hacker
was able to obtain John’s bank account user ID and password and exploit this information.
What likely scenario could have allowed the hacker to obtain John’s bank account user ID and
password?
