Phishing

One of the most common ways that hackers are attacking businesses nowadays is via phishing emails. These look just like regular emails, but they contain either a link to a hacked website that steals personal/company data or they have a compromised attachment filled with viruses. Here were the most common phishing emails of 2020

Phishing emails can be very dangerous for yourself or your business. Through these attacks, a hacker will have access to your personal information, passwords and then he can either use it to cause harm or sell it to the highest bidder. You need to find the right way to identify a phishing email, and that alone can be troublesome for most people nowadays.

Phishing and spear-phishing sound very similar, but there are multiple differences between these types of cyber attacks. These are both designed to acquire confidential information, however, the tactics used and the approach is very different.
