Usually, phishing scams are done by hackers using email scam techniques, using platforms of social media networks, smartphones with internet access, and more types of phishing attacks are multiplying.

CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency), the U.S cybersecurity agency, has recently proposed a new policy for all agencies. They have issued a draft directive for all agencies to develop and publish vulnerability disclosure of policies mandatorily.

The department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security (CISA) asked U.S. citizens to be aware of scams and malicious cyber campaigns. Holidays are a busy season for cyber-attackers and scammers.

As this holiday season is near, the CISA encourages U.S. citizens to stay safe of potential holiday scams and malicious cyber campaigns, especially while browsing or shopping online, says CISA.

They also added cyber attackers have various methods to harm your security, like sending emails and ecards that contain malicious links or attachments infected with malware.

Over several days, numerous members' reported receiving an email from their board members, accountants, and management teams, asking them to open an attachment or sending personal details like bank account numbers, etc.

Many got that it's a spam email, but one or two fall victim to the scam.

Every business is at risk of cyber-attack. As our reality turns out to be more digitized through progressions in innovation, hacking techniques and digital attacks are progressing as well.

Business activities depend vigorously on technology, including customer service, accounting, communication, and many more.
