    COVID-19 Phishing Scams – Are you protected?

    By Tecnica | Blog | 0 comment | 9 October, 2020 | 0

    The past 9 months have been an uncertain and stressful time for the whole world. Many people are working remotely,  However, the majority have never worked from home before so will be learning and adapting as they go. This can lead to a lot of uncertainty and nervousness, which is one of the prime elements for phishing scams.  

    Cyber-Criminals prey on people’s uncertainty for their own personal gain. There has been a sharp rise in cyber attacks since the beginning of the pandemic especially in the form of phishing scams.  

    A phishing scam is a type of cyber attack where the perpetrator’s intentions are to gain sensitive information from the victim.
