A02:2021-Cryptographic Failures

Cryptographic Failures: Weaknesses in the implementation of cryptographic protocols.
Occur due to improper use of cryptographic algorithms or poor key management.
Exploiting it: Attackers can decrypt sensitive data, impersonate users, or tamper with information.
Consequences: Data breaches, loss of data integrity, and unauthorized access.
Mitigation: Use strong, current cryptographic algorithms, implement proper key management, and follow best practices for cryptography.
