To ensure that you are not a victim of phishing attacks, Kaspersky revealed some preventive measures that must always be taken to avoid phishing.
First, you have to learn how to recognize phishing attacks, including all types of phishing attacks. So, if you receive an email, link, or file phishing, you can decide to delete it immediately.

The second step is to report phishing attacks. According to Kaspersky, this move will allow companies to increase security and ensure they maintain the security of customer accounts.
Most digital security companies have software with built-in anti-phishing components. So, make sure you get trusted antiviral and anti-phishing software.
Many make it possible to filter phishing messages as spam, so you don't even see them. Make sure to use an antiviral program that will also remove any virus on your computer. That will help cure the damage that occurs if a cybercriminal installs malware on your device," said Adrian Hia, Managing Director for Asia Pacific in Kaspersky.
