1. Phishing Attacks
These are fake messages or emails designed to steal your passwords or money.
They look real but contain dangerous links.
2. Malware & Ransomware
Malware infects your device and steals data.
Ransomware locks your files and demands payment to restore them.
3. Weak Password Attacks
Hackers use automated tools to break weak or repeated passwords.
Simple passwords like “12345” or “password” make you an easy target.
4. Public Wi-Fi Attacks
Free Wi-Fi networks are often unsafe.
Hackers can easily intercept your data and steal information.
5. Social Engineering
Hackers trick people into revealing personal details by manipulating emotions or trust.
This is a psychological attack, not a technical one.
Conclusion
Cyber threats are everywhere, but awareness is your first defense.
When you understand these risks, you can protect yourself and others from becoming victims of cybercrime.
