What is a Man In The
Middle
Attack?
scumBag.net's founder is riding on the train from
Lancaster to London, a 5 1/2 hour trip
He sets up a router called FreeWiFiTrial, which acts as a front end to the train company's real WiFi service (this is actually
very easy to do
)
Dave gets on the same train, at Birmingham New Street, for a 2 1/2 hour trip to London Euston, he connects to WiFi every day, and he is really happy to see that the train company is offering a Free WiFi Trial for this trip
Everything that Dave does on the internet for this train ride will go through scumBag.net's "man in the middle" router
With software, scumBag.net's founder can read and change anything that Dave sends or receives

3rdKey.com blocks MITM attacks
We use HTTPS SSL/TLS to encrypt all communication between the server and the browser
Effective unless someone accepts a bad certificate
When warned about a bad security certificate,
90% of people will ignore it (BYU study)
We further encrypt all communication ourselves
We use a
Diffie-Hellman
secret key exchange
Effective as long as the MITM does not manipulate the communications
We use the 3rd key as a part of the encryption algorithm - completely
shuts down the MITM attack
As long as you keep your 3rd key safe, your web communications are safe on 3rdKey.com
