Phishing
Phishing is quite a common type of cyber threat where scammers roll out suspicious emails to the recipients. They make emails look so legitimate and pushing that some users get compelled to do what scammers want them to do. As soon as the user gets into the trap of the scammers by clicking the link, they attack the user’s computer with malware and thus exploit the establishment as per their motive. Some of the common types of phishing e-mails include offering money, asking for a relationship, or fake purchase orders.
While phishing is a grand concept, spear-phishing and whale phishing are rather more targeted and sophisticated. In spear phishing, scammers research the person they plan to get in their trap and then sends an email with the thing that person is in search of. With this targeted approach, the person pursues this phishing email and thus get in the trap. Similarly, whale phishing also works in a rather similar way with the only difference that it attacks top executives like CFOs and CEOs.
