Phishing attacks are like digital fishing expeditions – attackers cast a lure (a deceptive email or message) hoping to trick recipients into revealing sensitive information or clicking on malicious links. These attacks are prevalent because they prey on human trust and inattention.
In this blog post, we'll unveil the tactics of phishers and equip you with the knowledge to protect yourself and your employees:
- Common phishing tactics: Phishing emails often impersonate legitimate senders, like banks, credit card companies, or even colleagues. They may contain urgent requests, enticing offers, or threats to scare you into clicking a link or downloading an attachment.
- How to identify a phishing attempt: Be cautious of emails with grammatical errors, generic greetings, or a sense of urgency. Don't click on suspicious links or attachments. Verify the sender's identity by hovering over their email address.
