The COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdowns, work-from-home culture and online classes has led to more people being confined at home and spending more hours on the Internet. The risk of cyber-crime has always been there for many years but the pandemic has provided more opportunities for cybercriminals to take advantage of the situation.
