In today’s life, the internet plays an important role. Many services shift to the internet (online banking, online shopping, media streaming and download services), business processes heavily rely on the internet (submitting claims, help desks) and it is widely used for personal communication (social networking, email). The widespread use make services an attractive aim for attackers. Thus, it is no surprise that many of this services require the user’s authentication. However, often no secure channel is established to the user himself and the secure channel already ends on the user’s device. If a website requires the user to log in via password, at best the site is using a connection secured with SSL. However, on the one hand, average users do not properly check SSL certificates and if certificate verification fails they ignore the warning box due to so many websites with invalid certificates.
