Email Spoofing
Email Spoofing is the creation of email messages with a forged sender address, often used in phishing attacks and spam. By disguising the origin of the email, attackers trick recipients into believing the message is from a trusted source, potentially leading to unauthorized disclosure of personal information or spreading malware. Protecting against email spoofing involves using email authentication methods like SPF, DKIM, and DMARC to verify sender identities.
