The Following in a list of the attack methods that Fraudproofing system will protect you against and why

Credential Theft & Database Breaches

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Credential stuffing (reused passwords across services) Yes Banking credentials are created and used only on isolated devices; they never appear in any other breach corpus.
Data broker exploitation Yes The banking email, SIM, device, and IP have zero linkage to your public identity, so purchased broker data cannot map to your banking profile.
Third-party breaches leaking banking details Yes No third-party apps, plugins, or integrations store your banking details. Everything is siloed.
Cross-site credential leaks Yes The dedicated banking device never logs into any non-banking services, eliminating crossover exposure.

Malware & Device Compromise

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Banking trojans from unsafe software Yes No software is downloaded or installed on the banking laptop/phone except the bank app/site.
Keyloggers Yes No executable software paths exist, and the system never interacts with general-use apps that could introduce keyloggers.
Browser-based malware/extensions Yes There is no general-purpose browser usage and no extensions installed.
Drive-by downloads Yes No visits to external websites; the attack surface is zero.
Malicious apps harvesting tokens Yes Only the banking app is installed; no broad app ecosystem exists.
Clipboard hijacking malware Yes Clipboard use is minimal and the device has no malware-introduction vectors.
Screen-capture malware Yes No side-activities or downloads exist that could insert such malware.

Network-Based Attacks

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Man-in-the-Middle on public WiFi Yes No public WiFi is used. All traffic goes through a private phone hotspot + encrypted VPN tunnel.
DNS hijacking Yes The VPN enforces its own DNS, bypassing ISP/public DNS entirely.
IP-based correlation across services Yes Dedicated static IP is used strictly for banking; never appears on any other service.
Network eavesdropping Yes Hotspot isolation plus VPN encryption eliminates sniffing opportunities.
ARP spoofing Yes The device never joins shared networks.

Social Engineering (Via Non-Bank Channels)

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Phishing to your normal email Yes Banking email is separate and unknown publicly; phishing to personal email becomes irrelevant.
SMS phishing to your regular number Yes Banking SIM is isolated and never used elsewhere, so it cannot be targeted by typical SMS phishing distributions.
Vishing to your regular number Yes Attackers cannot map your banking identity to your normal phone.
Mass phishing campaigns Yes Your banking identity has no public footprint; attackers have nothing to target.
Social media scams Yes No social media access on dedicated devices; no exposure.
Fake “customer support” contact Yes Only bank-controlled channels ever interact with your banking identity.

Account Enumeration

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Attackers discovering your banking email from other breaches Yes The email is never used anywhere else and cannot appear in breach dumps.
Phone number enumeration Yes Dedicated number never interacts with public services.
Username/email validation attacks Yes The attacker has no reason or path to guess the isolated email.

Cross-Contamination Attacks

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Session hijacking from browsing other websites Yes You never browse other websites on the banking device.
Cookie theft from non-banking sites Yes No cookies from any other service exist.
XSS from other sites Yes You don’t visit other sites; attack surface is zero.
OAuth token compromise Yes You never authorize third-party logins or integrations.

Tracking & Profiling

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
IP-based tracking Yes A dedicated, static VPN IP isolates banking traffic from your normal digital footprint.
Browser fingerprinting Yes No browser usage beyond the bank portal.
Behavioural tracking Yes No cross-site activity exists to build behaviour profiles.
Ad-tech data aggregation Yes No trackers, no browsing, no leakage.
Device fingerprinting Yes Single-purpose device used only for banking.

Password-Related Attacks

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Password spraying (common passwords) Partial Fraudproofing isolates identity, but bank password strength still matters. Weak passwords still fail.
Dictionary attacks Yes A strong unique password + isolated attack surface makes brute-forcing unviable.
Credential harvesting via other services’ reset flows Yes No other linked accounts exist.

Targeted Attacks Based on Known Information

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Spear phishing using broker data Yes Banking identity is completely unknown to data brokers.
Targeting based on your known email/phone elsewhere Yes Your real-world identity cannot be linked to the banking persona.
Social engineering using your digital footprint Yes There is no footprint to exploit.
Attacks leveraging your associated accounts Yes No associations exist.

Infrastructure Exploitation

Attack Type Verdict Explanation
Compromised public DNS Yes VPN bypasses public DNS entirely.
ISP manipulation or surveillance Partial VPN encrypts traffic, but a hostile ISP could still perform timing/fingerprinting analysis. Risk is low but not zero.
Shared hosting vulnerabilities Yes No hosting services are used in this environment.
Compromised proxy/VPN provider Partial NordVPN is reputable, but any VPN introduces a theoretical trust dependency.
