Phishing is a type of cyber attack where attackers use deceptive emails, messages, or websites to trick individuals into providing sensitive information such as login credentials, financial details, or personal information. The goal of phishing attacks is usually to steal sensitive information, install malware on the victim's device, or gain unauthorized access to systems or accounts.

Phishing attacks often involve sending emails or messages that appear to be from legitimate sources such as banks, social media platforms, or government agencies. These emails typically contain links to fake websites that mimic the appearance of legitimate sites, prompting users to enter their credentials or other sensitive information.
