English term or phrase: clickjacking
Definition from Economic Times:
Clickjacking is a phenomenon of hijacking "clicks" in a website context. It is vulnerability in the user interface of the websites. It can occur in any browser on any platform. As the name implies this vulnerability hijacks the clicks of a user on a website which effectively translates into leading a user click on something malicious or sharing confidential information details he is not even aware of.

Example sentence(s):
  • To ensure that your site doesn’t get used in a clickjacking attack, you need to make sure it cannot be wrapped in an iframe by a malicious site. This can be done by giving the browser instructions directly via HTTP headers, or in older browser by using client-side JavaScript (frame-killing). Hacksplaining
  • An anonymous polling website that prevents duplicate voting by checking IP addresses, for example, would still be vulnerable to clickjacking because it does not authenticate users using cookies. Javascript
  • This is similar to clickjacking – the criminal act of illegally subscribing customers to a wide range of content for a daily or weekly fee. South Africa is the second most affected African country by this type of mobile crime after Kenya. Cape Town etc.

Example sentence(s):
  • Clickjacking a Internet -Conegut com a "segrest de clic" -Presentat per Jeremiah Grossman i Robert Hansen l'any 2008 - Estudi del tapjacking en Android  
  • Nota: 1. Els mètodes utilitzats en un segrest de clic per a amagar els enllaços maliciosos són diversos; sovint s'inclouen en una altra pàgina que se superposa com una capa transparent a la pàgina web visible. 2. Els objectius del segrest de clic també poden ser diversos: fer accedir l'usuari a una pàgina web determinada (per exemple, per augmentar-ne el nombre de visites), fer que accepti l'entrada de correu brossa a la seva bústia, activar la seva càmera web per espiar-lo, etc. - Innovative Worker
