Website mirroring can be used in attacks against web servers. True or false?
True
False
True. When an attacker makes a copy of your webpages on their local machine, they can then scan the code for vulnerabilities to exploit without generating additional traffic on your web server. COMMENT: this question really is silly. COMMENT2: website mirroring only gives you the client-side details. No application code (php, executable, etc.) So you can only look for vulnerabilies in e.g. javascript. The main reason why website mirroring can be seen as an attack against a website is the fact that mirroring uses webserver resources and with enough mirroring a DOS attack has been realized.
