Information Security Awareness in Dubai Municipality
Phishing attacks are fraudulent schemes targeting individuals and businesses. In these attacks, cybercriminals impersonate trusted entities, such as banks or government agencies, to deceive people into sharing sensitive information. This may include passwords, bank account details, or identification numbers.
To protect yourself from cyber threats, follow these essential tips to safeguard your digital security:
- Always verify links before clicking on them, especially if they are from unfamiliar or suspicious sources.
- Check the sender’s email address carefully and watch out for spelling or formatting errors.
- Hover your mouse over links without clicking to confirm their legitimacy before accessing them or downloading any attachments.
- Pay attention to the quality of logos or signatures in emails, as poor quality can be a sign of a scam.
- Turn off Bluetooth when it is not in use to minimize security risks.
