Replay Attack Definition: A replay attack is a type of network attack where a valid data transmission is maliciously or fraudulently repeated or delayed.
A replay attack is a type of cyber threat where an attacker intercepts and maliciously retransmits data that was previously recorded during a legitimate communication session. This allows the attacker to impersonate a genuine user or manipulate systems by replaying the captured data, potentially bypassing authentication mechanisms and compromising the integrity and confidentiality of the communication.
