Answer:

91% successful cyber attacks happened by someone falling for a phishing attack.

Step-by-step explanation:

Phishing e-mails, for example, disguise themselves as legit senders or companies, often giving a sense of urgency to make people fall for the scheme. Others can come in the sense of a prize won, asking for personal details to be filled or by clicking on links or files.
