It is important to know the differences between spam emails and phishing emails because they represent distinct types of malicious online activities, each with its own risks and consequences.

An attacker will closely follow a target using the social engineering technique known as "tailing" in order to obtain private information or access restricted areas. They exploit individuals who hold doors open for others without taking proper precautions. We must effectively control visitor behavior, take necessary precautions, and promptly report any suspicious conduct. By doing this, we can help limit unauthorized access and protect the organization's resources and confidential information.

We often use our RFID to enter our company building and specific rooms. RFIDs are essential in our everyday work in the office. When an RFID is lost or stolen, there are several security hazards, including the possibility that the thief would use it to enter the facility or important areas without authorization. This may lead to theft, damage, or the compromising of equipment or data.

To avoid any illegal access or misuse, it is crucial to handle RFID tags carefully and promptly notify the appropriate authorities if a tag is lost or stolen.
