When malicious code is planted on your computer and alters your browser's ability to find web addresses, it is known as Pharming.
<h3>What is Pharming?</h3>
Pharming is a cyberattack designed to trick users into visiting a phony website by downloading and installing a malicious applications on their devices.
Pharming can be carried out by altering the host's file on the victim's computer or by taking advantage of a flaw in the DNS server program.
Computers called DNS servers are in charge of converting Internet names into their corresponding IP addresses.
Some people use the term "pharming" to describe compromised DNS servers. Instead of using a corporate business server, phishing involves unprotected access to a computer, such as changing a customer's home PC.
The phrases "farming" and "phishing" were combined to create the term "pharming." An example of a social engineering assault is phishing, which aims to get access credentials such as user names and passwords.
In 1963, Stanley Milgram conducted an experimental design in which he wanted to research the extent to which any individual could go to show his obedience about harming other people. The experiment was primarily conducted to figure out the influence which leads an individual to commit such heinous crimes and atrocities.
