This article below is excellent for understanding Phishing Attacks today. To summarize don’t click on email links unless you are absolutely sure of their origin. Keep a good Phishing tool to check your email links.

The easiest way for a cyber-attacker to gain access to sensitive data is by compromising an end user’s identity and credentials. Things get even worse if a stolen identity belongs to a privileged user, who has even broader access, and therefore provides the intruder with “the keys to the kingdom”.

74 percent of respondents whose organizations have been breached acknowledged the incident exploited privileged account access. This number closely aligns with Forrester’s estimate that 80 percent of security breaches involve compromised privileged credentials. By leveraging a “trusted” identity a hacker can operate undetected and exfiltrate sensitive data sets without raising any red flags. As a result, it’s not surprising that most of today’s cyber-attacks are front-ended by phishing campaigns. So, what can organizations do to prevent their users from falling for the bait of these attacks?
