Phishing Emails | The Complete Overview
Business is no longer the same as it was. The internet has transformed the world from a collection of pagers to completely distributed companies and entirely new items of value, such as crypto-currency.
As the world has shifted online, the criminal world has followed, and even led in some cases. Cyber crime has spiralled and is impacting every business across the world.

In the U.S., the state of California lost more than $214 million through cyber crime alone.
