A user needs to complete training at https://comptiatraining.com. After manually entering the URL, the user sees that the accessed website is noticeably different from the standard company website. Which of the following is the most likely explanation for the difference?
Typosquatting(also known asURL hijacking) is a type of attack where cybercriminals register domain names similar to legitimate sites but with slight misspellings (e.g., comptiatraning.com instead of comptiatraining.com). Attackers use these fake sites tosteal credentials or distribute malware. Since the user manually entered the URL and reached an unexpected website,this strongly indicates a typosquatting attack.
