These sophisticated cyber campaigns often combine tactics such as phishing emails, social media scams, compromised websites, and direct messaging to target individuals or organizations from multiple directions. The objective is to overwhelm defenses, exploit various vulnerabilities, and increase the likelihood of success by creating a comprehensive assault. Such coordinated efforts are particularly difficult to detect and mitigate.
