Exploit Kit
An exploit kit is a tool used by cybercriminals to automatically identify and exploit vulnerabilities in a computer or software to deliver malicious content, such as malware or ransomware. They are often hosted on compromised or malicious websites, where unsuspecting visitors may be infected without their knowledge. Once a user visits the infected site, the exploit kit scans their system for weaknesses and uses those gaps to install malicious code. Essentially, it's a malicious toolkit that streamlines and automates cyberattacks, making it easier for hackers to infect numerous systems efficiently.
