If you’re an Android user and is an avid fan of social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter, then perhaps you should be more cautious whenever and wherever you access them.
Faceniff has come to town and it can steal your personal info from the websites where you are often logged in. It is an Android application that requires root access to your Android smartphone and it is fairly simple to use. Perhaps it is even more dangerous than Firesheep that is known to hijack Facebook and Twitter accounts on Wi-Fi networks because Faceniff also works on WPA-encrypted networks which Firesheep doesn’t.
Please note that we are not posting this to encourage the usage of this app. Rather, we are only telling you how it works so that you will be more cautious when you are using a public Wi-Fi access.
HTTPs can help you gain a fair degree of protection from this attack. You simply have to switch all your favorite web services that have this support. Both Facebook and Twitter are capable of doing so. So what are you waiting for? Change your settings now.
Faceniff could also inflict its destructive tendencies on other popular websites such as YouTube and Amazon.
You can watch the video on how it works.
