MITRE ATT&CK sub-technique

T1056.003 — Web Portal Capture

Last fetched

T1056.003 (Web Portal Capture) is a MITRE ATT&CK sub-technique tracked in WhisperGraph, serving the Collection, Credential Access tactics.

Description

Adversaries may install code on externally facing portals, such as a VPN login page, to capture and transmit credentials of users who attempt to log into the service. For example, a compromised login page may log provided user credentials before logging the user in to the service. This variation on input capture may be conducted post-compromise using legitimate administrative access as a backup measure to maintain network access through [External Remote Services](https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1133) and [Valid Accounts](https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1078) or as part of the initial compromise by exploitation of the externally facing web service.(Citation: Volexity Virtual Private Keylogging)
