Reverse Tabnabbing - a type of attack that your site is likely susceptible to

The article on the TOPdesk tech blog discusses the concept of reverse tabnabbing, an attack technique that is gaining importance among developers. The author explains what reverse tabnabbing is and how it can impact user security. Active developers need to be aware of this threat to ensure their applications and websites do not become targets for attacks. The article offers practical tips for securing links, including the use of HTML attributes such as 'rel' and 'noopener' or 'noreferrer', which can significantly reduce the associated risks. The ultimate goal is to enhance user privacy protection and prevent situations where users might be at risk of data theft by opening links in new tabs. In the face of increasingly sophisticated attacks, it is crucial for developers to take informed steps to protect against both reverse tabnabbing and other similar attack forms.
