This occurs when some legal entity, be that a user or a program successfully pretends to be a different entity. This threat may take on the following forms: impersonation and misuse of credentials of someone else, incorrectly executed log-in procedures, false claims of the origin of an entity or its parameters, impersonation of supervisory entities to users, and simply impersonation of one user to another network user.
