A wide range of malevolent activities carried out through contact with people are included in the category of social engineering. Psychological tactics are used to deceive users into disclosing sensitive information or committing security errors. However, critical information may be revealed due to a lack of security safeguards on social media sites and other internet platforms. In the quickly evolving digital world, people are more susceptible to online dangers and false information, despite advancements in cybersecurity. Thanks to developments in data transmission technologies, people can connect with one another anywhere in the world. Private and personal information, as well as information posted online in online forums and other websites, are not protected or regulated due to the lack of security protocols. As a result, people might believe false information and behave in ways that threat groups would like. Social networks, particularly email, are a continual source of cybersecurity risk due to their nature. Their close relationship with humans is what makes them so vulnerable to deception and other nefarious activities. Using a device like a firewall to safeguard traffic headed for a computer is challenging enough. However, shielding a living person’s mind from messages that are sent directly to them is even more difficult.
