- Hidden dangers of the content payment network, an attacker using a content delivery network (CDN) is like exploiting the permissions of a leaked user account. There is no big difference between the two.
The content delivery network, if the user is authenticated (or the code is signed), whatever he or she does (or whatever the code represents in the CDN file) is legal because it has a password-the lowest security standard.
- However, we have developed to the point that self-signed certificates are not questioned; as long as some kind of certificate mechanism is deployed, connections and files are considered secure. This is a side effect of overworked employees and our immediate needs: we need it now and we can resolve any consequences later.
- In the end, it comes down to trust but it goes beyond trust. It is uncertain whether there are better ways to protect CDNs than traditional methods, which include: malware scanning, content filtering, and similar threat intelligence to detect and / or block problematic traffic. [1]
