Phishing, Phishing Detection, Social Engineering, Information SecurityAbstract
The number of phishing attacks reached in 2021 the highest number of all time until then, being the triple since 2020. This event demonstrates that as phishing techniques are shaped considering the context of their target since its emergence in 1995, these attacks end up adapting over time and, thus, this problem persists in society for more than 25 years and continues to increase its number of victims. With that, this work presents a study about what is phishing, its concepts, its types and the problems caused in society.
