For example, TAO could duplicate a bank's website where the target enters in all his or her account information and logs in successfully, but in the process, the data also gets captured by the hackers.
In a pharming attack, a user is redirected to a website other than what he or she was trying to go to, but the person doesn't know it. Put simply, TAO is the unit of hackers trying to break into foreign computers, and one technique they can use is pharming. In the U.S., most are in a special NSA unit called TAO, or Tailored Access Operations (Many other countries have their own versions of this unit). While some hackers break into computers just out of curiosity or in an effort to score some cash, there are plenty of others who are working in the intelligence community.
