Phishing is a deceptive and fraudulent practice in which malicious actors attempt to trick individuals into revealing sensitive information, such as login credentials, personal identification, credit card numbers, or other confidential data, through impersonating a trustworthy entity, such as a legitimate company, government agency, or individual, through various means like email, instant messaging, or fraudulent websites. Phishing attacks aim to influence the victim's trust and emotions to force them to do acts that jeopardize their security and give the attacker access to their accounts without authorization, allow them to steal identities, or carry out other criminal activities. Phishing is a prevalent and ongoing threat in the realm of cybersecurity, and individuals and organizations need to remain vigilant to detect and defend against such attacks.
