CAN YOU GUYS TELL ME THE MOST COMMON CYBER SECURITY ATTACKS??

*Zero-day attacks- Target software vulnerabilities that have yet to be discovered and patched
*Cloud-data leakage- Is when employee uploads sensitive information of the company to cloud services like Dropbox*
*Mobile malware- Specially designed to target the operating system on mobile devices, allowing hackers to steal data on the devices.
*Targeted attacks- Use a variety of hacking methods to methodically attack a predetermined user or organization
*SQL injection- It allows hackers to execute malicious code on a server, allowing them to steal or delete data stored on that server
