Not everything is as it seems.
Phishing attacks, delivered through email, text, voice and social media are carefully designed to look and sound credible. They lure unsuspecting victims into parting with their valuable personal information or installing malicious software.
Beat the phishing bait by adhering to strong security practices, increasing community awareness and educating the vulnerable.

94% of all malware arrives via email.
Malware - or malicious software - is risky software that can compromise and disrupt the network, covertly transmit data and make systems inoperable. The vulnerability is often introduced through clicking dangerous links or attachments.
