Identifying Cyber Threats

Cyber threats come in various forms, including malware, phishing, and ransomware. Malware is malicious software designed to harm or exploit any programmable device or network. Phishing attacks trick users into providing sensitive information, while ransomware locks users out of their data until a ransom is paid.

Protecting Yourself

To protect against these threats, it is vital to keep software updated, use strong passwords, and be cautious of suspicious emails. Regularly backing up data can also mitigate the impact of a ransomware attack.
