Online threats

In the digital age, technology brings many benefits, but it also poses new threats. One of the more serious problems is email attacks, which can lead to fraud and loss of personal information and money.

Email attacks are malicious attempts to gain unauthorized access to systems or information through email accounts. Here are some of the most common types of attacks that seniors are vulnerable to:

– phishing attacks

– spear phishing attacks

– email spoofing attacks

– malware and ransomware distribution

– man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks on email communications

– attacks to take over or block email accounts

– attacks leading to the collection of authentication data
