Explain spear phishing ?

Spear phishing is a targeted form of phishing in which cyber attackers send personalized emails to specific individuals or organizations in order to trick them into revealing sensitive information, such as login credentials or financial data. These emails often appear to come from a trusted source, such as a colleague or a company executive, and may contain convincing details that make them seem legitimate. The goal of spear phishing is to gain access to confidential information or to install malware on the victim's computer system. This type of attack is more sophisticated and harder to detect than traditional phishing attempts, as it is tailored to the specific interests and characteristics of the target.
