Phishing is a type of cyberattack that involves sending fraudulent emails that appear to be from a legitimate source, such as a bank or government agency. The emails often contain a link or attachment that, when clicked, installs malware on the victim’s computer or steals their personal information. Phishing attacks are a serious threat to businesses and individuals alike. In New Zealand, phishing attacks cost businesses an estimated $1.2 billion each year.
