White-box Attacks

White-box attacks refer to cyber attacks where the attacker has full knowledge of the system they are targeting, including its algorithms, data, and internal workings. This detailed information allows them to craft precise strategies to deceive or manipulate the system, such as tricking a machine learning model into making incorrect predictions. Think of it like a hacker knowing the exact design and secrets of a lock, enabling them to find the best way to bypass it. These attacks are considered more sophisticated because of the attacker’s comprehensive understanding of the target’s inner details.
