How do phishing emails often use malicious attachments to deliver malware or steal sensitive information?
Phishing emails often use malicious attachments to deliver malware or steal sensitive information by tricking the recipient into opening the attachment. These attachments may appear to be harmless files, such as documents or PDFs, but they contain hidden malware or malicious scripts that can infect the recipient’s device once opened. This allows cybercriminals to gain access to the victim’s system, steal sensitive data, or install ransomware or other malicious software without the user’s knowledge.
