Phishing

Phishing is a social engineering attack where malicious actors impersonate a trustworthy entity to deceive individuals into revealing sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords, or financial details. This is typically carried out through fraudulent emails, messages, or websites that appear legitimate. The goal of phishing is to trick individuals into providing confidential information that can be used for identity theft, financial fraud, or unauthorized access to accounts. Phishing attacks can have severe consequences, making it essential for users to verify the authenticity of communications and be cautious when sharing personal information online.
