Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF) is an attack in which an attacker deceives a victim to act in his or her name. The following steps can be taken to prevent CSRF attacks: 1) Use of the latest antivirus program to block malicious scripts. 2) When you authenticate on your bank site or carry out financial transactions on another website, don’t navigate to other sites or don’t open emails, which makes you run malicious scripts while authenticating to a financial site. 3) Do not save your login or password in your browsers for financial transactions. 4) Turn off the script in your browsers.
