One type of attack is DNS spoofing, this is where DNS server or a DNS cache is compromised in a way that re directs internet traffic from a website to another, typically a look alike, someone may enter login information, which the attacker then receives.There is also a man in the middle attack, in this security issue internet in routed through an attackers machine before sending the users traffic to the site of resources they intended to access, the attacker then eavesdrops on the traveling data, which is why connecting to a VPN while using public wifi is impossible. A third security issue to keep in mind would be phishing, where face emails are sent out to a specific target or on mass to random people asking for information while appearing to be a trusted source in order to get targets to click links, send information ect. So it is important to be able to tell where the message came from.
