Email Security and Phishing Awareness
Email security involves measures to protect email accounts from unauthorized access, phishing, and other cyber threats.
- Identity theft: Phishing emails can steal personal or financial information.
- Malware attacks: Infected attachments or links can compromise your device.
- Financial fraud: Scammers may trick you into sending money or sharing sensitive data.
- Data loss: Unauthorized access to your email account can result in stolen or deleted messages.
Example: A phishing email pretending to be from a bank tricked users into providing their login credentials, leading to account breaches.
- Be cautious of emails from unknown senders or with suspicious links.
- Verify the sender's email address before responding or clicking on links.
- Avoid downloading attachments unless you are certain they are safe.
- Use spam filters and enable multi-factor authentication for your email account.
- Report phishing attempts to your email provider or IT department.
