Common Cybersecurity Threats :

Malware: Malware accounts for 18% of the most popular cybercrimes affecting American companies. Malware is an abbreviation for "malicious software." It's a common term for a variety of malicious programs that infect your machine with the intention of corrupting or stealing your data. It may be trojan, worm, malware, spyware, or ransomware.

Phishing: When you receive an email that appears to be from a company or individual that you trust, it is called a phishing attack. For example, this may be your bank. A vague "fraudulent operation" will normally be flagged as an urgent enticement for you to take action and click on the email connection. The connection will take you to a dummy site that looks genuine but is just a ruse to steal your login credentials.

Data Breach: Hackers and cybercriminals make a lot of money from data breaches. Malware programs can easily keep your data hostage before you pay the price requested. Ransomware has grown in prominence as one of the most prevalent cybersecurity threats. Victims also pay a high price to retrieve data that was not backed up.

Ransomware: As the name suggests, ransomware prevents access to systems or personal data until a ransom payment is made. This is accomplished by completely encrypting the data first. Without a particular decryption key, it is then locked away and made entirely unavailable.
